On this date in WCW history: Ricky Steamboat and Shane Douglas defeat Barry Windham and Dustin Rhodes at 'Clash of Champions'
On November 18, 1992, Ricky Steamboat and Shane Douglas defeated Barry Windham and Dustin Rhodes to win the NWA and WCW World Tag Team Titles at Clash of the Champions XXI.

Bits: Onward and Upward
After the closing of the 2011-2012 season, things should start happening all over the place for the Islanders. Things we have to look forward to include; potential buyouts, our own free agent signings, the draft, (trades prior to or during the draft), the acquisition of other free agent help, the...

After going down in the series 3-2 Friday on the strength of a Roberto Luongo shutout, the Boston Bruins rallied to win the final two games of the Stanley Cup final with the Bs being the only team to take a road game in the series in last night's game seven. Boston erases their "choker" label...

Runaway. Run run run run, runawayyyy
Wow, what a game. Even before United ran away with it after the 60-minute mark, this was a totally exciting game. Obviously 5-0 is an incredible result, but it's the 0 that stood out to me more than the 5 for most of the match. I tallied only 4 legitimate scoring opportunities for HVFC, and I don't...
