If Roger Federer, who's pulled out of the ATP Tour for 2016, falls to No. 15, that'll be his lowest rank since 2001.

looking at the ranking points, I don't think he's close to falling that far: http://live-tennis.eu/
Though he is defending points at the US and Masters Final.
EDIT: Actually, this article predicts he will drop to 16th. Might be touch and go depending on the remaining seasons of the current 10th-18th ranked players.

Australia will yet again miss out on an medal Olympic medal in men's basketball (yes, we will definitely lose to Spain). Never have we come within 20 points in a semi-final. The women had won a silver or bronze at the last 5 Olympics dating back to 1996.

Back in W.G. Grace's day, there was a lot of minor cricket played in any one season, in between all the first class games. W. G's. cricket career spanned 58 seasons, and his brother, E.M. (Edward Mills, who played one Test) played first class and second class cricket over a span of 60 seasons. These are their known stats in all levels of cricket.

\E.M.|75,762|327 not out|121|19|1|11,906|16
With many second class matches played against teams with more than eleven players, it was easy to obtain more than 10 wickets in an innings.
W. G's 100th 100 was 106 for Gloucestershire vs Lancashire in 1880 (a first class game).
His 200th 100 was 141 for W. G. Grace Junior's XI vs Oundle School in 1901.
His 500th five wicket haul was 7-40 for MCC and Ground vs Nottinghamshire in 1885 (a first class game).
E. M. Grace's 100th 100 was 207* for Thornbury vs Newport in 1883.

Viewing the 1102 page book "The Chronicle of W. G.", which analyses every game W. G. ever played, it is noted that in addition to his 222 centuries, W. G. also made 479 fifties, held 1886 catches in all games, took five wickets in an innings 727 times, ten wickets in a match 202 times.

English Premier League hangovers:
Blackburn Rovers 1994/95 to 7th in 1995/96
Manchester United 2012/13 to 7th in 2013/14
Chelsea 2014/15 to 10th in 2015/16
Leicester City to ... in 2016/17
Will Leicester City have the worst ever season as a reigning EPL premier?
Currently 12/20 after 7 of 38 matches. I give them no chance of finishing top 6.

I saw a match involving Parramatta in the last few years where the scores were something ridiculous like 3-2 with only a couple of minutes left...?

I think it was a wet night against St.George/Illawarra at Kogarah from memory. Think there was a late try to someone which blew the scoreline out a little.
Seemed like a joke at first, but seems legit.
http://www.espncricinfo.com/blogs/content/story/1072726.html
And the above NRL game was 2-1 with very little time on the clock, Dragons scored to make it 8-1. Hasn't been a tryless game since 1993.
