((HT: Wimbledon))
Australia's Nick Kyrgios found quite a way to announce himself as the youngest seed in the Wimbledon fortnight. He ended up saving 9 match points, starting out 2 sets down to 13th-seed Richard Gasquet, to do this at 9-8 in the fifth set.
Here's the post-match Q-and-A session, presumably when he could catch his breath

Spain Eliminated In Brazil, Netherlands Advance
((HT: ESPN/FIFA))
Group B is all figured out, but not the way everyone thought...
First, the Socceroos gave the Netherlands all they could handle including a Tim Cahill volley that could be the goal of the tournament. But, the Dutch came through in their dress blues for the wild 3-2 win to advance.
van Persie is out for the next match, but it won't matter in the grand scheme.
Interesting set-up for the second match of the day. Chilean fans stormed the stadium saying that they were having to pay $1,100 dollars for a ticket that didn't have an entry point to the stadium.
Here's Yahoo!Sports Graham Watson's viewpoint of the storming of the Media Center

But, the questions now will come from all over the place on Spain- THE DEFENDING CHAMP!!!
The Champ Is Here, The Champ Is Gone...
Chile got a 2-0 lead and sat on it for the win and the knockout...

Time Lapse Shows Australian Cricket Field Converted for Baseball
((ht: mlb.com))
This video is pretty cool. And we are suckers for a good time lapse video.
MLB.com shows what it took to convert the Sydney Cricket Grounds in Austrailia to a Major League Baseball ready facility.
And it appears it took quite a bit.
For those of you who don't know. Technically, baseball's regular season will begin this weekend down under as the Los Angeles Dodgers and Arizona Diamondbacks square off for a pair of games.
Several Dodgers will not make the trip and the players don't appear to be overjoyed about flying across the Pacific Ocean and back for two games--but that's another story for another day.
In the meantime, enjoy this video:
