Oden, Blazers Fans Set to See Action Tonight will be the first chance for Trail Blazers fans to see Greg Oden play in a game since he had knee surgery, as the center is scheduled to take part in a 40-minute scrimmage at the Rose Garden as part of the team's Wells Fargo Fan Fest. Rose Garden doors open at 5 p.m., and the scrimmage is scheduled to start around 6. Parking and admission are free, but tickets must be picked up at a Wells Fargo Bank branch in Oregon or southwest Washington . Fans with a Wells Fargo credit card can also enter for free. Oden, the No. 1 overall pick in 2007, sat out last season after undergoing microfracture knee surgery. He suffered a mild ankle sprain on the first day of training camp but has participated in the last two practices. Coach Nate McMillan said Brandon Roy, who is recovering from Aug. 14 knee surgery, will also play in the scrimmage, which will be two 20-minute halves. The only players who will not play are Steve Blake (hamstring), Channing Frye (ankle surgery) and Raef LaFrentz (shoulder surgery). "We want to work on execution, but we don't want to go out there and hurt anybody," McMillan said. "It will be a practice, but it will be fun, and we want to keep it somewhat loose for the players and fans."

Dallas Cowboys safety Michael Hamlin says nude photos of him surfaced on the Internet are "photoshopped."

Welcome to the world of the WAGs. The beautiful women of the world who become involved, in some way, with athletes. Many of my previous lists involved ranking WAGs but this list is different because it involves me ranking women who are not currently a WAG. This was one of my favorite lists to make because many of these women have never been a WAG but are on the wish list of most male athletes ...

The Phoenix Suns gave the Los Angeles Lakers all they could handle before eventually falling in Game Six of the Western Conference Finals, as the Lakers went on to claim their third conference crown in as many years. The Lakers appear to be in position to make it four in a row unless some team in the West can prove it has the right balance of size, defense, scoring, and chemistry to unseat Los ...

Here's an early look at the top of the Western Conference, focusing on teams that can win 50 games or more next season. This list does not include the Phoenix Suns, who won 54 games last season and reached the Western Conference finals. My view is that adding Hedo Turkoglu and Josh Childress will not be enough to make up for the loss of Amar'e Stoudemire. (Click here for an overview of the East ...

ESPN has been the premier network when it comes to sports over the last 30 years. Whether you agree with the somewhat sensationalist direction it's taken in the last few years is another matter.
