Oh, those poor golf clubs. (Credit: Audi/YouTube Screenshot by Chris Matyszczyk/CNET) It’s hard being an old Vulcan. Younger beings come along and just want to vulcanize you. Old Vulcans have it so bad they drive Mercedes. Young ones, quite naturally, drive an Audi. These aren’t the musings of an addled mind; it’s the premise of [...]

Gerald Wallace wonders where it went. (Nathaniel S. Butler/NBA/Getty Images)Gerald Wallace played 31 1/2 minutes on Saturday night without taking a shot.
