Two years and out for Ted Nolan as coach of the New York Islanders with the dreaded "philosophical differences" cited. Is that Nolan's last gig in the bigs? You'd think so...Maxim brings us the 8 hottest tennis players. Sorry, Bukkake, they're the female version. Speaking of female tennis players, Ashley Harkleroad showed up on my doorstep yesterday, or at least she did on the cover of the August issue of Playboy...battling for the starting QB job on their high school football team: Wayne Gretzky and Joe Montana's sons, Trevor Gretzky and Nick Montana. Also on the squad is wideout Trey Smith, son of Will "Fresh Prince" Smith...Detroit Red Wings Kris Draper's baby girl used the Stanley Cup as the Stanley Toilet Bowl, dropping a deuce in the mug. And Draper still had a drink out of it that night...true story: this week is National Sports Cliche week. What would sports be without cliches?...the Detroit Pistons are said to be looking to work a trade for Tracy McGrady. But, when the source is Toronto's Metro, you have to doubt it...of course after I suggested Roy Halladay or Mariano Rivera had my starting nods, it ends up being Cleveland Indian Cliff Lee for the American League. Starting for the Senior Circuit is Ben Sheets of the Milwaukee Brewers. Since streaks only end once, I'm going with the AL to win for the seventh straight year...Greg Norman's last divorce cost him a mere $103 million. A-Rod, be very afraid...during the Home Run Derby intros, my fav moment had to be where Chase Utley could be overheard saying "boo? Fuuuuck you" to a fan who gave him the Bronx Cheer. Classic...I'm not normally one for any of the skills competitions, but that show Josh Hamilton put on was something else. Wow...Milton Bradley brought out a towel and a drink to the guy throwing to Hamilton. Does that make him a better team player than Jose Calderon?...good to see "Jason" Morneau win it...Blue Jays Fan may not want to acknowledge that they knew this day would come, but yours truly was sure of it: Roy Halladay is getting tired of the losing in Toronto year after year...have a great Tuesday.SportsCenter Right Now:

what, no amanda coetzer!!??
Papelbon and Mariano both want to close...If Mariano don't get it..I hope Francona falls off a cliff.
Just scored tix to see the Impact next Tuesday in what will be the most important TFC game of the season, can't wait.
Count on the Scarborough boy to have his girl shit in the cup...good job. I guess a little pinesol don't hurt.
Just saw the Papsmearbon comments. What a f'n loser. You think you desrve the nod over Mo? Based on what? Certainly not this year. Certainly not for your career.
I'm glad Doc said what he said and I won't begrudge him one bit if he doesn't want to come back if they don't improve.
The guy deserves better.
And going to Papelbon over Rivera would be even worse than Cito snubbing Moose in Baltimore which they still don't forget.
I feel the same way about Sundin now. He's been surrounded by plugs for much of his time in Toronto (Hoglund...who went from first line to out of the league when the Leafs finally saw he was garbage) and is performing out of his head, much of it wasted in a cesspool of mediocrity. So if he leaves now, well, the Leafs didn't deserve any better anyways.
I wouldn't begrudge Halladay wanting to leave either, especially if he went to the Yanks. I can dream...
