When you run with the pros, you win
It is the only sport, as far as I can tell, where you can swipe your credit card and face an Olympic champion.Sure, if you ran into Clyde Drexler at a playground, you could challenge him to a game of HORSE. Or you could fly to China and convince Zhu Qinan to have a one-on-one shooting competition.But in marathoning, you can compete against the world's best, in a major professional event. You might not have heard about this -- it was somewhat under-publicized, in my opinion -- but Kenyan Sammy Wanjiru and I dueled at the Chicago Marathon in October. He, being the Olympic champion from the Beijing Games. I, being a running medalist as well, if you count a 14th-place finish in a JV cross country meet in 1991.Read more | Matt James archive

'Dogs revel in special teams success
There are certain things the Fresno State football program likes to keep to itself, no matter how many times it is asked or who is making the inquiry.So even when NFL teams call to find out how the Bulldogs excel at blocking kicks year after year, special-teams coordinator John Baxter is flattered but coy."I'll talk about anything but field-goal blocking and punt protection," Baxter said. "It's like Colonel Sanders' secret recipe [for Kentucky Fried Chicken]. Or a magician and his tricks. You just don't give it out."We've got some trade secrets on some things. And the only ones who know are people who coached or played here."Read more | Spotlight archive
