Torbush and Bunting: the reason Davis hasn't been fired?[Jun. 29, 2011] Last week, Ed Lane and Meade Seiy noted on Southside Connection (4-6 PM ET) the reason behind Butch Davis staying at UNC may have something to do with the football team's previous two coaches, Carl Torbush and John Bunting, sporting a cumulative 43-63 record. ACCSports.com owner/editor (and frequent Southside Connection guest) Dave Glenn validated that in his latest issue of the ACC Sports Journal. (Photo: FoxSports.com).  Shorter races? NASCAR's clash between the fans at home and those at the track.[Jun. 28, 2011] Earlier in 2011, Fox Sports CEO David Hill called for NASCAR to shorten its race broadcasts into a 3 hour window.

[Jun. 23, 2011] After the NFL Draft comes the real fun for pro football's rookies: learning a new playbook, mini-camps and organized team activities. Except in 2011, where the NFL lockout has prevented any formal activities from taking place for the 2011 NFL Draft class.

Davis likely to stay at UNC despite NCAA investigation. [Jun. 22, 2011] The NCAA released its statement on UNC's football program yesterday, noting the Tar Heels had violated 9 major NCAA Rules.

Granderson: a tough Yankee to hate. [Jun. 18, 2011] Hating the New York Yankees is easy for most Major League Baseball (and sports) fans. However, loathing center fielder Curtis Granderson is not easy, as MLB on Fox Reporter Ken Rosenthal notes (Photo:New York Post). Fantasy football owners could feel heat. [Jun. 14, 2011] For many, the NFL season has evolved into the 5th season on the calendar. For those who enjoy fantasy football, however, FoxSports.com columnist Peter Schrager feels you could feel the heat most from the current NFL lockout, especially if it's not solved soon (Photo: RealClearSports.com). UVA's 9th inning rally propels them to NCAA Baseball World Series. [Jun. 14, 2011] Chris Taylor lived the moment for which many young baseball players dream.

Morosi: Houston Astros need to move to American League [Jun. 12, 2011] Major League Baseball is considering realignment, again. Not realigning the schedule to include fewer games, but moving one team from the National League to the American League to create an even number of teams (15) in each league and an even number in each division (5). According to FoxSports.com's Jon Paul Morosi, the Houston Astros need to be that team to move from the National League Central into the American League (Photo: TheRedsReport.com).
