Running, running - where? A 180 for Tony Harris.

Private Tony Harris was running, running as fast as he could. After a loud explosion nearby, his instincts took over. Or was it instinct to run towards the trouble?

10 Step Holiday Workout: Intense and Full-soul

Christmas is a week away! The Christ child, presents, family, friends, and big meals and more big meals. Ham, turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, pies, cakes, cookies, and candies are only part of the variety on the menu.

Even though the Badgers lost the Rose Bowl, a 7-year-old fan won big. Though Tolzien's football career is struggling, someone's thriving.

50 of my fellow seminarians were ordained today, and I almost missed the Mass and ceremony.

Broncos or Bears - Tebow, the NFL, and God

A funny combination! Many thought, and some still think, that Tebow shouldn't be in the NFL - he lacks the skill, the finesse.
 

The NFL and God don't mix at all. How dare the divine take a step on football's sacred turf?! The only one's he seem inseparable are Tebow and God, but some even question that will last. They point at all the other fallen athletes and celebrities.
