CHICAGO — The oddity of Chicago Blackhawks general manager Stan Bowman’s predicament is that history might ultimately judge him as much for the craftsmanship he showed in disassembling his Stanley Cup championship team as the skill he used to help build it.

There’s something about Keith Smart that puts him in the right place at the right time. Smart, who has been under the radar for his entire coaching career, landed his first NBA head coaching job this week when the Golden State Warriors chose him to replace Don Nelson. “I was prepared for the opportunity when [...]
WASHINGTON (AP) — The current labor deal between the NFL and its players’ union contains a provision that allows the league to increase the regular season to 18 games.
