Despite an unscheduled interruption when a runaway fan escaped onto the court and attempted to put a red hat on him (don't put anything past the crazy French St. Louis Cardinals fan club) Roger Federer managed to defeat Robin Soderling in straight sets on Sunday to capture his 14th Grand Slam title. 

The French Open title gave even more fuel to the argument that Federer is the greatest tennis player of all time.  He has now tied Pete Sampras for the most Grand Slams in his sport's history, placing him in elusive company when it comes to being the Grand Slam leader in his respective sport.   Our stats department pulled a comprehensive list of "Grand Slam" leaders in various areas:

Lou Gehrig - MLB (23)
Dennys - Breakfast
Alaska Milkmen - Phillipine Basketball Association
Tiger Woods - Golf (disputed)
Lionel Richie - Hair (also known as the "superfecta of hair" outlining simultaneous presence of jheri curl, mullet, ponytail and mustache)

Congrats to Federer for entering this hallowed ground.

1950 - The Boston Red Sox defeat the St. Louis Browns 29-4, setting a Major League record for largest one game deficit. Fifty four years later, the Red Sox would sweep the St. Louis Cardinals in the World Series by an overall score of 560 - 2.

1992 - Steve Howe is banned from Major League Baseball for a record 7th time. You'd think after the third time, he'd never return. This is one reason Roger Goodell believes baseball is for pu**ies.

1997 - HHH wins WWE King of the Ring, launching his career to a higher level. It was a level below "shagging the boss' daughter", two levels below "marrying the boss' daughter" and three below "running the company".



... that today is World Ocean Day. Do your part to celebrate the cause. Perhaps you could use a little Led Zeppelin Ocean?



Or maybe a little Billy Ocean?



If neither of those work, let's examine the Great Barrier Reef.





Patrick Imig discovers that Chad Ochocinco actually tells the truth at time and that David Ortiz needs a new business plan.
