With Halloween upon us, I'll bet you're busy thinking about what kind of costume to wear. Well, I've done a little bit of homework as to what some of our favorite (and not-so favorite) figures in the world of sports are dressing up as...
Maybe you'll find some inspiration....
University of North Carolina: You win the latest "my owner is an idiot award." This is the first time the award hasn't been won by some lonely old woman who puts her cats in Arbor Day sweaters. Good job...
