During my travels and airport delays, I was able to keep up with my e-mail, negotiate my way around the downtown, get tips on the city from an old friend whose number I don’t normally have handy, check the weather conditions in New York and D.C., monitor baseball scores and blogs, listen to an early Neil Young concert and amuse myself with silly YouTube videos and an episode of “Weeds,” all on a single charge before the battery ran down....

Just do your homework before working out....

The Rockets guard has dropped 41 or more points in each of his last five games, including 44 and the game-winning shot on Thursday against the Warriors. Needless to say, Harden has Houston humming like a well-oiled machine. Along with Harden’s streak, the Rockets seem to have grown out of their early-season funk as they are 11-1 in their last 12 games. Here’s a look at some of the craziest stats from Harden’s recent run of excellence....

You're thinking, "three guys who struck out at a legendary rate." At least you should be. Fantasy baseball owners know all about Reynolds, one of the game's most notorious hit-or-mostly-miss players.

Five-star defensive tackle Aubrey Solomon put on a Michigan hat to announce his commitment to the Wolverines on ESPNU Wednesday morning.

The 0-0 draw with Liverpool was the first true sign that Mourinho was not about to change his well-worn approach to high-profile fixtures....
