As recently as four years ago they were considered one of the worst franchises in professional sports, the laughingstock of the NHL. In fact, before this season they had only come out victorious in one playoff series in team history. Now for the first time, the Tampa Bay Lightning are the improbable champions of hockey. A stirring 2-1 win over the Calgary Flames in Game 7 of the Stanley Cup Finals helped the Lightning become just the second team in 33 years to overcome a 3-2 series deficit in the Finals. It also meant they would be the first team from Florida to drink from Lord Stanley’s

Ted Williams: The Pursuit of Perfection is filled to the brim with wonderful photos and stories about the man who reigns today as the elder statesman of baseball. Agreed by most to be the greatest pure hitter in the history of the game, Teddy Ballgame is a lot more. He’s a military hero as well, having served in two wars and having flown combat missions with John Glenn as a United States Marine Corps jet fighter pilot. As a celebrity, he has lent his name to numerable charitable efforts, and his half-century of service in fighting children’s cancer represents the longest associatio

The fever that is college basketball on Tobacco Road started from a small outbreak in Raleigh, North Carolina, when Indiana basketball legend Everett Case became the coach at N.C. State University. He restarted the dormant construction of Reynolds Coliseum, and for 50 years, it was one of the most important basketball arenas in the country. Through the years, the Wolfpack has won two NCAA championships and 10 Atlantic Coast Conference championships, while giving the sport of college basketball some of its brightest color, from the plaid jackets worn by Norm Sloan to the unbelievable athletic a

Bleeding Pinstripes is a unique, anthropological view of this most dedicated tribe of rooters—their rituals, their personal tribulations, their uncanny commitment to the Bronx ball club and to each other. You will meet an assortment of Bleacher Creatures, characters of a very different sort: Tina Lewis, the self-proclaimed Queen of the Bleachers, a spirited cancer survivor, and the chief lobbyist for Section 39; Donald Simpson, a 9/11 victim and the bleachers’ only known millionaire; Milton Ousland, the only bleacher fan authorized to bang the cowbell during Yankee games; Bald Vinny, the ult
