Yes, you are seeing that correctly. That is Hall of Fame pitcher Rollie Fingers in all of his mustachioed glory, riding a dolphin in front of a rainbow, engraved in ink on Oakland A’s pitcher Dallas Braden’s left upper arm.

After a sluggish start, things are starting to look up for Deron Williams and the New Jersey Nets.
There isn't nearly as much optimism surrounding the Toronto Raptors, who - if their most recent effort is any indication - look headed for what could be another challenging stretch with Andrea Bargnani out indefinitely.
Seeking a third consecutive win, New Jersey tries for a fourth...

CLEVELAND — Two nights ago, after the Nets did something they rarely have done this season, win a close game, Deron Williams was shouting the new motto he has proposed for the team — “I love it” — about virtually everything. It was, he claimed, an effort to drive away negativity from the...

If you want someone to give you 30 points, complete with off-the-dribble jumpers, look elsewhere. But, as Nets coach Avery Johnson said, if you’re headed for a bar fight — or need some rough interior play — Shelden Williams should be on speed dial.
“The rougher the game is, the more...
