"Let's let him be an athlete," Maddon says. "No preconceived restrictions at all. He would be in control of this, and he needs to be in control of this.

"Stephen A. Smith makes good on bet with Tim Tebow...Of course, Florida would go on to push Alabama to the limit and come within two points of overtime.

"The San Francisco Giants just keep surprising us"
"The NL West loser -- and it's wrong/unfair/ludicrous to put that label on a 100-plus-win team, but rules are rules -- will have to win the historically unpredictable wild-card game to earn the right to play the NL West winner in the NLDS. (Which means, stupidly, that one of the two best teams in the NL is guaranteed to be eliminated before the NLCS.)
