In addition to working on a book large enough to read from Venus, as seen in this photo dispatch from their official site, Kiss has some other big plans in April. The rockers will be appear at high profile events like the NCAA Final Four in New Orleans, on ABC’s ‘Dancing With the Stars’ and the ACM Awards in Las Vegas on CBS.

All four top regional seeds — Kentucky, North Carolina, Syracuse and Michigan State— remain alive as the 2012 NCAA tournament begins the regional semifinal round on Thursday. An NCAA record four schools from Ohio have advanced to the round of 16. Here’s a preview of the next round of NCAA tournament games:

Ohio, Cincinnati and Xavier all won on Sunday to join Ohio State in the NCAA basketball tournament round of 16. Top-seeded North Carolina and Michigan State also won to advance to the regional semi-finals. Here’s a full recap of the day’s action in the NCAA tournament:

March Madness officially begins today and we’re going to hear all about it whether we want to or not. A lot of folks have the “if you can’t beat ‘em, join ‘em” mentality and just fill out their brackets and throw the $10 into the kitty, even if they don’t know jack about NCAA hoops. So, as you’re finishing up your brackets, here’s what it says about you.

As March Madness gets into full swing this week, pencils are being sharpened, factoids are being studied and basketball junkies are trading sleeper picks around the water cooler. But, sleepers don't win brackets, smart, well-thought-out picks do. Here are 5 teams to watch for in the 2012 Big Dance that are not #1 seeds.

The St. Cloud State men’s basketball team lost 76-64 to 13th ranked Metro State Sunday night in the 2nd round of the NCAA Division II tournament in Golden, Colorado.  The Huskies played without starting center Tim Bergstrasser and were outrebounded 39-23...

The second week of bowl season usually features some exciting games, and this year was no exception. Many of the games this week gave us wild plays, last-second finishes, great individual performances and, in the case of the Alamo Bowl, the kind of unstoppable offense that would make Bo Jackson in Super Tecmo Bowl proud. Here are all the highlights from the last week in college football.

LSU is in the national championship game, and Oklahoma State certainly made a strong case that they should be there as well. Now its up to the poll voters and the BCS computers to decide whether the Cowboys will get a shot at former coach Les Miles, or if the Tigers will indeed have a rematch with Alabama. Elsewhere, Montee Ball and Robert Griffin III continued their late-season pushes for the Hei

As college football’s regular season nears its end, the postseason picture is starting to take shape. Barring a major shakeup in the polls, Alabama punched its ticket to the national title game. The only thing that remains to be seen is if they’ll have another shot at top-ranked LSU. Next week’s conference championship games could shake up the BCS, while the Bedlam rivalry between Oklahoma and Okl

The day started with Lee Corso letting loose an expletive on ‘College Gameday,’ and things just got crazier from there. The BCS was officially thrown into chaos as three of the nation’s top five teams all went down to defeat. #1 LSU remained in the driver’s seat for the title game with another dominating win, but any number of one-loss schools are now back in the mix for the title game.

In honor of Veterans Day President Obama visited the USS Carl Vinson in San Diego Friday for a basketball game. Yes, I'm serious, a basket ball court was constructed on a Navy warship for the Michigan State vs. North Carolina college basketball game. See the time-lapse video of the construction on the next page.

After all the disgusting headlines out of Penn State dominating the sports world this past week, it was good to return to the field with some actual football. And the Top 25 gave us plenty of excitement to discuss. Seven ranked teams, including two in the Top Five, went down to defeat. Boise State saw its BCS hopes die on a missed field goal as time expired (again). Oregon downed Stanford in a wil
