 Tour de France - Against All Odds, Armstrong Places ThirdLegendary cyclist Lance Armstrong managed a place on the podium in this year’s Tour de France. The 38-year-old suffered through a grueling race and proved that, though he may not be as strong as his younger opponents, they better watch out. Stanley Cup - Penguins Celebrate 2-1 Victory over the Red Wings for the CupThe tables were turned in this year’s Stanley Cup Finals, as Pittsburgh Penguins captain Sidney Crosby hoisted the Stanley Cup onto his young shoulders. The Penguins managed a 2-1 victory in Game 7 of their series against the Detroit Red Wings, a win that brought them the Stanley Cup for the first time in over 15 years. Red Sox Defeat the Yankees - Again!Wednesday night marked a new low for the New York Yankees in their century-long rivalry with the Boston Red Sox. The game was their seventh straight loss against the Red Sox, the Yankees’ longest losing streak against Boston since 1912, when the Yankees were still known as the Highlanders. The Yankees lost to the Red Sox 5-6. Woods Silences Criticism with Memorial Tournament WinDoubts had begun to surface about golf superstar Tiger Woods. After undergoing a knee surgery last year, Woods did not appear to have the same game. Perhaps, came the none-too-quiet whispers, Woods had lost his touch. Sunday’s Memorial Tournament, however, proved the naysayers wrong; Woods returned to true form, claiming his second title of the year with 12-under par-276. NBA Finals - Orlando Brings a Magic Touch to Game 3Game 3 proved a dramatic turnaround for the Orlando Magic in their series against the Los Angeles Lakers. The Magic finally earned their nickname for the first time in the series, breaking NBA Finals records right and left in their 108-104 victory over Los Angeles. They may even have a shot at evening up the series. NBA Finals - Lakers Scrape by with a Game 2 VictoryThe Lakers managed to take a victory in Game 2 of the NBA Finals, but their performance brought more relief to Lakers fans than it elicited rejoicing. Their 25-point Game 1 rout of their opponents, the Orlando Magic, was a distant feat; the favored team barely maintained its advantage in the series with a 5 point lead in overtime, finishing the game 101-96. Stanley Cup Finals - Wings Take Game 5 and Lead Series 3-2The Detroit Red Wings came back for Game 5 after losing their previous two road games to the Pittsburgh Penguins, clinching a 3-2 series lead with a 5-0 shutout victory. The Wings need only claim one more game to win the series, marking their second consecutive Stanley Cup and their fifth in the last twelve years. Stanley Cup Finals - Power Plays Give Penguins a Game 3 VictoryHistory often repeats itself, but it is uncommon to see it repeat itself quite so literally. The Pittsburgh Penguins are again challenging the Detroit Red Wings for the Stanley Cup in the final round of the playoffs. The series has thus far proved a carbon copy of last year’s; the Penguins were trounced in the first two games of the series only to reclaim Game 3, 4-2. Manchester United and Barcelona Clash for European Cup; Barca Brought it HomeOver 60,000 fans flocked to Rome for Wednesday’s European Cup. The championship game featured England’s Manchester United and Spain’s Barcelona Catalans. Although Manchester entered the game as the favorite, the English team went home empty-handed; Barcelona claimed its third overall Cup 2-0. Wings and Penguins Face Off - Again - in Stanley Cup PlayoffsIt looks like the teams in the 2009 Stanley Cup playoffs are experiencing an dizzying kind of déjà-vu. The Detroit Red Wings, the Stanley Cup defending champions, are once again facing last year’s playoff finalists, the Pittsburgh Penguins. This year’s playoffs, however, may promise an outcome very different from last season’s.
