NFL Commish Roger Goodell will have a ruling on the Brett Favre situation tomorrow, allegedly. Question: why does the commissioner need to get involved in such things anyways?...Team USA ripped Russia 89-68 for their fourth straight easy win. Dwayne Wade is shooting a mere 80% from behind the three-point line, and wisely, hasn't had to resort to holding up six fingers to indicate three point success...Toronto FC are back at BMO Field today to host FC Dallas. Kickoff is 4pm on CBC. Here's hoping the recently acquired Chad Barrett makes a difference in the attack...only ManRam would get the trade he wanted, then go back to the Red Sox an hour later and ask that it be called off and pledged good behavior...Patrick "The Predator" Cote says he'll beat Anderson Silva in their fight coming this October. I'd file that under "no chance", myself, but stranger things have happened...this article discusses how unimpressed Scotty Bowman was with the Maple Leafs front office and commitment to doing the right things to be a winner. Nice stuff, Leafs...Brett Favre wants to face Green Bay at some point this year if he does indeed play. If I'm Green Bay, I want that too. The guy is more smoke and mirrors than when the carnies roll into town, and Green Bay's D would be too good for him to face successfully, and that as much as anything would kill those who still pine for his return...Chelsea downed AC Milan 5-0 in a friendly today. Nicolas Anelka scored four goals...have a great Sunday.
