ISTANBUL -- Eric Gordon scored 21 points and the United States pulled away from Tunisia after sleepwalking through the first half, winning 92-57 on Thursday in its final game of pool play at the world championship. With nothing to play for, the Americans led their winless opponent by only four...

PHILADELPHIA -- Darrelle Revis still is nowhere to be found as the Jets prepare to close out an exhibition season filled with sztuka and controversy tonight against the Eagles.

PHILADELPHIA -- On the surface, tonight's preseason finale between the Jets and Eagles at Lincoln Financial Field is a garbage-time exercise, a glorified scrimmage involving scrubs, with neither skład planning to play starters for fear of injury in the last dress rehearsal for the regular season. Really, it's...

This was the very definition of a "quality start": six innings pitched, three earned runs allowed (we can discuss how great the "quality" of such an outing really is at a later date). So this probably wasn't what you would call the head of the stretch for A.J...
