Jim McGlothlin is seeking to raise $40 million for the Mountain Mission School in Grundy, Va.

Cleveland Cavaliers fans had to feel pretty good when LeBron James rose to shoot a potential game-winning shot (even if it was from deep) on Wednesday night. After all, they had seen this show before. But one in particular, had more confidence the buzzer-beater was going in than LeBron himself.
Check out this kid, who didn't even need to watch the shot that capped another epic performance by The King (44 points, 10 rebounds, 8 assists) and gave the Cavs a 3-2 lead in their first-round series against the Indiana Pacers:

That is some serious swagger.
For those of you who want to see the shot again (and again), here it is:

Remember when people said LeBron never hits big shots down the stretch? That was funny. Check out these two stats regarding clutch shots in the NBA playoffs:

The Houston Open, its future already hanging on by a thread, was dealt another blow on Wednesday evening.

Bobby Wyatt was an All-American at Alabama, talked about the same way as teammate Justin Thomas, coming out of college. But success has been elusive

BEIJING (AP) Jin Daxing took a one-stroke lead at the China Open after shooting an 8-under 64 Thursday in the first round.

Jin’s bogey-free round at the Topwin Golf and Country Club included six birdies and an eagle on the par-5 eighth. The 25-year-old Jin is playing in only his eighth European Tour event and has made the cut only once.

Matt Wallace (65) had an eagle-birdie finish to move into a tie for second with Nino Bertasio, who also produced a bogey-free round. Alexander Bjork and Scott Vincent (66) were a further stroke back.

Defending champion Alexander Levy, who won last week’s Trophee Hassan II in Morocco, is in a large group five shots off the lead at 3 under.

AVONDALE, La. (AP) Jordan Spieth suspects he could be on the cusp of a banner year. That’s why he’s trying to strike the right balance of fun and focus when he teams up with good friend Ryan Palmer in New Orleans this weekend for the Zurich Classic.

Spieth said he might see some music, considering the city’s renowned Jazz and Heritage Festival also is this weekend. He’s certain he’ll have some memorable meals. He might even take Saints coach Sean Payton up on an invitation to be in New Orleans’ ”war room” during the NFL draft, as he did last year.

But when he’s on the TPC Louisiana course, he also wants to capitalize on the momentum he gained with top-three finishes in his past two events, the Houston Open and the Masters.

”I finally feel like I got the short game back on track in Houston and Augusta. And to hit some of those putts under pressure and see some go in I think will be very beneficial going forward,” Spieth said Wednesday. ”It could very well..

The NCAA Women's Golf Committee announced its selections of 72 teams and 24 individuals to participate in the four 2018 NCAA Women’s Regionals, May 7-9.

Frank BienewaldNewsflash for you, folks: Life is about the finer things (mostly because everything else is so terrible it would suffocate you if you thought about it for more than five seconds at a time, but I digress). For some, that means fresh Pro V1s and an afternoon “dentist” appointment. For others, it's scotch that sets off smoke detectors and whatever new Apple gadget adults are pulling each other's hair out for in Best Buy parking lots across America. Never before has hot sauce—despite being pretty much its own food group—set foot in the finer things pantheon, but thanks to Tabasco, that ends today.
Behold the Tabasco Diamond Reserve Red Sauce, a scintillating elixir crafted for the celebrated Louisiana spice purveyor's 150th birthday. Sourced exclusively from Tabasco's Avery Island compound, the Diamond Reserve features peppers hand-selected for their “superior color, texture, and robustness,” which are then broken down, mashed with salt, and barrel aged u..

If you are playing daily fantasy baseball tournaments with a top-heavy payout structure, you need to make sure to create lineups with the requisite upside. While that may seem obvious and a little bit vague, there is an easy way to increase your probabilities of making a lineup that can realize its upside: through stacking.

Stacking refers to taking multiple hitters from the same team. The idea behind stacking is to make a lineup of hitters that are correlated to one another. This correlation creates a higher risk-higher reward type of lineup that is perfect for top heavy tournament structures.

Stacking increases correlation in a couple of ways. First, hitters close to one another in the lineup can share in the same run-scoring plays that result in additional fantasy points for all players involved since both DraftKings and FanDuel award points for runs scored and runs batted in. As a result, each lineup spot is most correlated to the lineup spots closest to it. So, the third hitter ..

Jayne Kamin-Oncea (Photo by Jayne Kamin-Oncea/Getty Images)Sports are society's greatest theater for the simplest of reasons: We never know what's going to happen. There are, of course, some caveats to this rule, those instances where we know exactly how the story will play out. Such as New York Yankees fans drooling over themselves when they acquire a new star, only to turn on said star by mid-April. Or the U.S. men's national soccer team failing to reach whatever low expectations are placed in front of them. And we'd be remiss in failing to mention LaVar Ball making a complete ass of himself at every turn.
To catch you up to speed in case you've been living your life, the Big Baller patriarch brought his sons LiAngelo (a.k.a the one who got caught shoplifting in China) and LaMelo (the non-shoplifter but also not the one who plays for the Lakers) to a minor-league basketball operation in Lithuania this winter. Well—and we hope you are sitting down—things didn&..
