The Golden Thong
Los Angeles Dodger infielder Nomar Garciaparra looks like any other baseball player up until the moment he reaches the batter’s box.

Married to the Game
NFL Hall of Fame coach Bill Walsh was having dinner with his wife Geri in a beautiful restaurant overlooking the San Francisco Bay. You know, there’s the city, and it’s wonderful, great food, and he’s looking off a thousand miles away. And Geri says, ‘What is it, Bill, third and eight?’ And I think at that level it’s always third and eight.
