Bill Belichick is not running for a probate judge position in a pair of small Connecticut towns, but many people believe he is. And the confusion is (somewhat) understandable.

While Belichick, 66, has no plans to trade in his hoodie for a robe, a 60-year-old attorney named Bill Bilcheck (See the subtle difference?) hopes to win the upcoming election. And he's openly admitting that he's trying to use his similar-sounding name (Side note: I've never had to double-check the spelling in a post so much) to his advantage.
“We’re in New England Patriots territory,” he told For The Win, “and if you saw my sign — I’m no dummy — they look like New England Patriots colors.”

They sure do, Bill. Although, those are America's colors as well. . .
Anyway, Bilcheck also told For The Win he has to actually tell people he is not in fact the legendar..

Allen BerezovskyKobe Bryant, perhaps more than any other athlete, has built a reputation on his ultra-competitiveness. As in, he actually helped build that reputation by creating his own nickname/alter-ego, “Black Mamba” while going through his off-the-court, um, troubles in 2003 and 2004. Bryant said “Kobe” would handle those challenges while “Black Mamba” would take care of business on the court — and his opponents “may get demolished in the process.” Apparently, the Black Mamba also shows no mercy on other species.

“They gotta pay the price for getting caught.” Amazing. And. . . pretty sick. Especially from someone who supposedly loves sharks.
Last year, Bryant even wrote about how he studied the ocean predators to help his defense against Allen Iverson. Again,..

New study says you should play more golf for your health (Obviously)

Only 3 players in history have reached double-digit majors, so it's asking a lot. But do any of today's big names—Rory, Justin, Jordan or Brooks—have a shot?

One of the early surprises of the NBA season has been the play of Kawhi Leonard, who seems to be embracing his new team despite reports he wanted no part of playing for the Toronto Raptors. So far, he's proven that to not be true, as he's helped lead the team to a 5-0 start, putting them alone atop the Eastern Conference standings. His play on the offensive end has been key, as the former Spur is averaging 28 points per game, but on Wednesday night it was a defensive play that made the highlight reel.

This is not exactly new for Leonard, who is probably (definitely) the best two-way player in the league and has two Defensive Player of the Year awards to show for it. He's so good that he's now inventing new ways to steal the ball, because just plain jumping in the passing lane to pick one off is too boring. Here's Leonard on Wednesday against t..

Ten years after a plane carrying Payne Stewart and five others crashed in a Mina, S.D., field, the memory of the day lingers in the golf community

Remember in the original NBA Jam when a player got hot and the announcer bellowed “HE’S ON FIRE!”? You then had a certain amount of time in which that player would make any shot, no matter how absurd? That was fun. It also happened in real-life on Wednesday night.
Stephen Curry established he’s the greatest perimeter shooter of all time (And if you’re still one of those old people backing someone else, just stop. You’re embarrassing yourself.) years ago, but the Golden State star's latest performance might be the most ridiculous reminder of that indisputable fact.

Curry connected on 11(!) of his 16 three-point attempts in three quarters of action in the Warriors' 144-122 thumping of the Washington Wizards, but it was more about quality than quantity. Once Curry got cooking he couldn’t miss from anywhere, including draining the greatest heat-check of all time. Have a look:
