High School Baseball Player Breaks Own Car Window With Game-Winning Home Run

Jeremy Taylor — Fri, 27 Apr 2012 19:15:45 +0000

There is no better feeling for a baseball player than hitting a game-winning home run. So Tennessee slugger Jameson Painter was on cloud nine when his eighth inning round-tripper put his Chuckey-Doak High baseball team in the lead for good in their game against Jonesboro University High.

Brittany Joy Cooper — Fri, 27 Apr 2012 15:00:25 +0000

Miranda Lambert hails from the Dallas suburb of Lindale, Texas, which is in Cowboy country when it comes to the NFL. Even if she were to go south a bit, we would expect Lambert to be pulling for the Houston Texans. But now, strangely, the ‘Over You’ singer is actually a shareholder of Wisconsin’s Green Bay Packers.
