On this day in 1982, Joan Jett & The Blackhearts proved that rock 'n' roll was more than just a feeling—it was a chart-topping anthem. "I Love Rock 'n' Roll" kicked off a 7-week reign at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and it still hits just as hard today

Happy birthday, Big Red! Secretariat was #bornonthisday in 1970 to Somethingroyal at the Meadow in Doswell, VA. The Bold Ruler foal was, as Bill Nack would write, "well made, well bred, healthy, and hungry." (Photo by available by special order; visit the link in our profile.)

He looked slow and was named “the Whopper” for his love for Burger King, but Billy Paultz had great hands and anticipation skills. Paultz averaged 2 steals per game in the ‘74-‘75 ABA season in spite of his towering 6’11’’ and 250 pound frame. Happy bday to the Whopper! 🙌

Not saying it never happened, but this just reinforces my belief that “dribbling out the clock” was not a thing in the 20th Century

I thought they said there was a big-time crew on this game between St. John’s and Duke? I see Shows. So that can’t be right.

Everyone knows CB Buckner is not very good at his job. But today’s game is an indictment on framing pitches, which should have been banned years ago. Josh Hurt

When Gervin retired only Kareem, Wilt, Doc, Oscar, Moses, Elvin Hayes, and Dan Issel had ever scored more points in pro basketball history. Today only 20 have scored more.

The Bad News Bears turns 50 today. This movie zigged where most kid-sports films zag: cynical, un-Disneyfied, a gritty 1970s antidote to the usual underdog uplift. And Walter Matthau never once feels like he’s “acting with kids.”
