Sure, we know your mom is much better (have you called her yet?), but that hasn't stopped Hollywood from trying. Over the years, there have been dozens of movie moms that are somehow less superheroic than our real moms, but this Mother's Day, they deserve to be recognized as well.
As soon as you saw this post's headline pop up on your computer, you knew that in the first paragraph I'd have to compare NBA Playgrounds to NBA Jam (or even NBA Street).
It happens every year on opening day. Baseball stadiums around the country throw their doors open to the world, inviting fans back to their April-through-October second home.
A gallery for those of you who should consider christening your grill with something other than steaks, fish, hot dogs, and burgers – your grill-less pals will appreciate it.
Consider the humble TV theme. It's a simple, underappreciated ditty that must both act as an introduction for what is to come but also stand on its own as a piece of music.
From semi-modest beginnings in the late '90s, Coachella has ballooned into a six-day, two-weekend extravaganza that has featured some of the biggest musical acts to ever grace our ears with their mellifluous tones.
Since the first festival at the Empire Polo Club back in 1999, Coachella has always been a more alternative and off-the-wall festival despite its size.
The idea was a good one. Since "MLB The Show 17" would be appearing exclusively on the PS4, why not go back to basics and launch a multi-platform game in "R.B.I.
Allow me to begin my review with a story: the story of Robots F. Dinosaurs, a young baseball player that got his start on the Pirates' AA affiliate Altoona Curve.
On the surface, walk-up music should be one of the most exciting things about baseball. It gives teams and players a chance to shine, to show some measure of creativity and individualism, without being tsk-tsked at by sportswriters who think bat flips are some sort of cardinal sin.
The Academy of Country Music Awards are fast approaching, and there's no shortage of excitement given that 2016 was a huge year for the genre. In advance of the award show on April 2nd, here are our picks for who will go home with top honors.
As the ACM Awards approach, the country music scene stands as a wonderfully disparate one. Now, more than ever before, artists are experimenting with the genre, and getting recognized for it.
They might not be as popular or recognizable as the CMAs, but the Academy of Country Music Awards are, for country fans in the know, often better measures of success and quality in the country music genre.
It's that time of year again. The sun is peeking out past the gray, casting a pink-orange glow on the grass of the baseball diamond. The bleachers slowly come to life around the country as the season begins, parents with Oakley sunburns, kids with baseball gloves — everybody comes together to enjoy the beginning of the season.
We are so, so, so close to the beginning of baseball season, and it's good that we are, because baseball teams, perhaps more than any other sports organizations, realize that the experience of going to a ballgame is one to be cherished.
For even the most experienced home cooks, baking can remain an untamable dragon – a blend of science, art, and alchemy that eludes all but the most determined.
Somehow, Sir Elton John is one of the more underrated musicians of our time. For the vast majority of his adult (and teenaged!) life, he has been consistently cranking out amazing music, scoring our favorite movies and entertaining crowds of thousands.
College football season kicks off in just about a month, and that means weekends featuring exciting rivalries across the country. Not too long after that, college basketball season will be underway.
The Nintendo Switch has absolutely dominated my weekend. I've been glued to the little device for days on end and have sunk hours upon hours into getting familiar with it – drawing out its strengths and weakness for you, dear readers.
Sometimes something important gets lost as you put on your headphones and zone out to a favorite album. As we lose ourselves in sonic ecstasy, we often forget what drew our eyes to the album in the first place when we saw it at Sam Goody or Tower Records.
There was a lot to take in at Nintendo's Switch preview event. The glossy sheen of a brand-new console, flashing lights, loud music, a stage featuring a hype team and gameplay demonstrations.
Little by little, the weather is getting warmer, the sun is shining brighter, and the grass is looking greener. For some, that indicates the first whispers of spring breaking through the harsh winter.
No Oscar party is complete without an assortment of movie-themed snacks, drinks, and finger foods. But this year, instead of simply making cupcakes with sloppily-drawn Oscar silhouettes etched into the icing, why not go the extra mile?
Sometimes people get a bit ahead of themselves and invite 50 people to their two-bedroom apartment for an Oscars party, not realizing that this means they will inevitably have to provide some sort of sustenance for the guests there.
I'm really sorry, guys. It's Wednesday. That means that it's officially no longer acceptable to use the Super Bowl as an excuse to spend all your time at work and home softly sobbing at an animated gif of an incredible Julio Jones catch (or, conversely, laughing maniacally watching a looped replay of that miraculous Julian Edelman catch).
