Ian O'Conner at
Fox Sports says that
A-Rod won't play out his contract with the Yankees and is sure to move. He predicts 2011. To his credit, he predicted
A-Rod would go to
New York in 2003, before it happened...nothing says "team" more than
fighting to have your fine reduced but accepting the game suspension issued by the team like
Plaxico Burress has. If this is a statement of the state of the
New York Giants for this season, it is not a good one...
Warren Sapp is
being a diva on
Dancing With The Stars? Well, at least he's in the right place...if you're a coach with a horrible record, getting into a public staredown with a
QB with a big contract isn't a great idea. Word is
St. Louis Rams QB Marc Bulger said he will no longer play for coach
Scott Linehan after he was benched by him in favor of
Trent "Concussion" Green. Adios,
Linehan. Probably doesn't help that
Steven Jackson is
siding with his QB, either...speaking of the
Rams, check out their
team photo. No, really,
check it out...
Ricardo Mayorga is coming back to the boxing ring tonight to face
Sugar Shane Mosley.
Mayorga smokes a mere three packs a day...
Toronto FC are down to two home games in this season gone wrong. The first goes today as they host local boy
Dwayne DeRosario and the
Houston Dynamo. Kickoff is 3:30, coverage on
CBC...
Bill Simmons, aka
"The Sports Guy" brings us
new rules for guys, and they are beauties one and all...the
10 best Chris Rock stand-up clips...you know
JP Ricciardi loves his former
A's, and here's one you could well be seeing in
Toronto:
Jason Giambi. The
story is already brewing. Can't wait to see the hypocrites who booed
Giambi the last few years for his drug use while cheering that plank
Greg Zaun all year suddenly sport
Giambi jersey's...always a good day when cross-the-street rivals
Liverpool and
Everton - their stadiums are within a couple kilometres of each other - line up. They're the highlite of the
English Premier League schedule today. I'm thinking draw in that one. In other games, look for
Manchester United to romp over
Bolton...rookie running back
Rashard Mendenhall of the
Pittsburgh Steelers sent
Ray Rice of the
Baltimore Ravens, a friend of his,
a text message talking junk ahead of their
Monday Night tilt and now it is bulletin board material. No clue why this is even a story, what was he supposed to say to a friend, that he was going to have a terrible night?...the
Tampa Bay Rays finally wrapped up the
AL East, thanks to a
Yankee beatdown of Beantown...the
New York Mets dropped a game off the pace in the
NL Wild Card race, losers to
Florida while the
Milwaukee Brewers were downing the
Chicago Cubs...have a great Saturday.

Concussion or TrINT Green works too. Both are good and well earned nicknames.
Great goals by Torres, looked dangerous throughout the game and looks like he is back in form now. Liverpool pretty close at a few milemarks – they're at 999 goals in the premier league and Gerrard at 99 goals with the pool. Gerrard to get his 100 and pool's 1000 goals next week?
Those Torres goals were absolute beauties. When he is in top form, he's up there with Ronaldo to watch, just makes it look so easy.
Agreed, though very different players, Ronaldo got the moves and the dazzle, good crosses and great finishing. Torres got some incredible strength for his frame, good movement and a very quick shot with great power and accuracy, which hardly anyone does better right now.
