Lauren Hill stunned on the court Nov. 2, easily sinking a layup just seconds into Mount St. Joseph University's basketball game against Hiram College. The 19-year-old athlete, who suffers from an inoperable brain tumor, is not expected to live past December. She had one wish: to play in a basketball game for her school. The Ncaa granted that wish, moving up the game by two weeks so that Hill could participate. Seventeen seconds into Sunday's game, Hill proved she's still got it by making a left-handed layup in front of the sold-out crowd at Xavier University's Cintas Center. "This feels like...

Before the San Francisco Giants took on the Kansas City Royals, Zak Williams threw out the ceremonial first pitch, while Robin's pal Billy Crystal -- who also paid tribute to his close friend at the Emmys -- was ready behind home plate to play catcher.

Well, this is weird. The entire gang of Pittsburgh Steelers linebackers performed their pre-game ritual with Lb coach Joey Porter before Sunday's game against the Browns ... and it was all caught on video. Here's how it went down ... the Lb crew lines up to give Porter a high-five ... each player getting lower to the ground than the guy before him -- culminating with a bizarre tandem leg-raising finale. It's weird ... but if it works, who are we to judge ... right?...

Mark Wahlberg is as Boston proud as they come, so why did he leave New England Patriots team owner Robert Kraft hanging for a high-five during Sunday's game?

The team owner even tapped the Ted star on the shoulder, trying to get his attention, but Mark was too busy applauding the Pats' success! Of course, the 43-year-old sports nut would never knowingly shade a fellow Bostonian. He's ride or die for his hometown's sports teams—even when it comes to the pee-wee leagues! During a 2012...
