Cubs Will Get Free Lap Dances For Life If They Win 2016 World Series
Share this: If the Chicago Cubs are able to climb atop the baseball mountain, there could be plenty of dancing in their future. It might not be the players who do the dancing, though.

Celtics Wrap: James Harden, Rockets Spoil Boston’s Home Win Streak
James Harden, Michael Beasley and the Houston Rockets spoiled the Boston Celtics’ home win streak, upending the Celtics in a 102-98 road victory Friday night at TD Garden. Harden led all scorers with 32 points, while Beasley contributed 18 off the bench for the Rockets in what amounted to a sloppy, close game the entire time. Isaiah Thomas scored a team-high 30 points for the Celtics, while Jared Sullinger added 24 points of his own. The loss drops Boston to 39-27 on the season, snapping their 15-game home win streak and a streak of nine consecutive games in which it scored 100 or more points. They now sit just a half game ahead
