ESPN’s MMA Live – June 25th, 2009
The 3rd String Safety — ... I’ve posting this here because not nearly enough people watch this show. ESPN does a ton of things wrong, but one of the best things they do is an MMA highlights show with some great guests and great analysis. Normally, UFC Lightweight #1 cotender Kenny Florian is there as well, but he’s in training for B.J. Penn. Rich Franklin sits in and is pretty good himself. Share and Enjoy: ...

Despite what their website tries to say, this will not be a successful partnership in the NBA, it just doesn’t make any sense. Mr. Kahn, do what you have to do, make the tough decision.

The Offside Rules — Is it just me or does it seem like Tommy Smythe is having a hard time saying something nice about the Yanks performance?

Jozy Altidore: The Adrian Healy Interview

Will he stay with Villarreal in the top flight La Liga or will they loan him out again to a Segunda B side, like Xerez? Or will an EPL or another European side pick him up?

Ortiz Says “I Never Used Steroids”
SOX & Dawgs — Boston Red Sox designated hitter David Ortiz and MLBPA general counsel Michael Weiner met the media this afternoon in New York to address the report about Ortiz being on the “list” of players that tested positive for steroids and/or performance-enhancing drugs. Ortiz came right out during his opening statement saying that he “never used or bought steroids” and blamed his positive test on supplements. He stated that he was he was “careless when he was buying ...

Ortiz “Never” Bought or Used Steroids
The Blog of Champions — David Ortiz held his press conference today about being on the list for players testing positive for steroids. He, as many players do, have gone the “vitamin” route. I don’t know if he used steroids. I’m in no position to guess. He’s the one who really knows. But, watch the video. Do you buy his assertion that he never bought or used steroids?

Anderson Silva Batters Forrest Griffin At UFC 101
Five Ounces of Pain — Anderson Silva Batters Forrest Griffin At UFC 101 Current UFC middleweight champion Anderson Silva established himself as a legitimate threat to the crown at 205 pounds, and further solidified the argument that he is the best fighter in the world this evening at UFC 101 as he made knocking out former UFC light-heavyweight champion Forest Griffin look easy. The bout started out simple enough, with both men sizing the other up, before Silva caught a Griffin low kick and threw the larger man to the canvas. It was all downhill from there for Forrest as he was dropped with a vicious left hook upon being allowed to his feet. Once back to ...

B.J. Penn Submits Kenny Florian At UFC 101
Five Ounces of Pain — B.J. Penn Submits Kenny Florian At UFC 101 bj_penn UFC lightweight champion B.J. Penn once again displayed why he is considered to be one of the most talented fighters to ever step foot inside of a cage this evening as he showed the pupil exactly why he is the master at UFC 101 . It appeared as though Kenny Florian may have planned on winning a battle of nutrition against Penn as he utilized the clinch for a small chunk of the three rounds leading up to the fights eventual finish in the fourth. If the gameplan on Florian’s end was to wear Penn down and come on in the later rounds, it failed miserably. Penn never tired in ...

Anderson Silva was coming off of two uneventful matchups with Patrick Cote and Theilas Lietes and the questions of his motivation ...

It’s obvious “The Spider” freed himself from the Matrix prior to the bout with Forrest in a fashion that would make Morpheus proud. Everything seemed to slow down for Silva last night.

Five Ounces of Pain — Brian Bowles Destroys Miguel Torres at WEC 42 brian-bowles Seventeen consecutive victories came crashing to an end for Miguel Torres this evening in Las Vegas at WEC 42 as Brian Bowles battered the former champ with a barrage of heavy punches to claim the WEC bantamweight crown. The two started out exchanging on both the feet and canvas before a huge right hand from Bowles sent Torres sailing to the mat. From there Miguel was crushed with another vicious right hand as he was incoherently searching for an armbar. Perhaps referee Josh Rosenthal gave Torres a little too much time to recover as the former champion took ...

Dominick Cruz and Joseph Benavidez put on three rounds of non-stop action that saw Cruz emerge victorious when it was all said and done.

Coach Andy will have a good plan to use the dog strangler in the best possible way to fit in their offense. It’s a little to early to dismiss the whole idea as stupid.

Statefans Nation — Nary a mention of NC State. * Is Virginia Tech too young? * North Carolina has the best front seven in the league because they have ‘lots of big names’? * How much pressure is on Randy Shannon this year? It isn’t ‘fair’ to pressure Shannon in year three because he has so many new coaches? If that is the case then why shouldn’t coaches just revamp their coaching staffs every year to keep the pressure off? * Jonathan Dwyer and CJ Spiller are ‘hands down’ the two best players and ‘must watch’ players in the league.

Michael Vick-Eagles Press Conference
All Philadelphia Sports — Here is a short clip of the Michael Vick Eagles press conference.  The full length of the press conference was 27 minutes.

Vick addresses media in press conference
The Scores Report - The National Sports Blog — Philadelphia held a press conference for their new quarterback on Friday, as Michael Vick addressed the media for the first time since joining the Eagles. Here is the video of the press conference, courtesy of ESPN.com: Does anyone else think it’s kind of ironic that the Eagles had an Aquafina bottle in front of Vick at the presser given the incident with him carrying a trick water bottle through security at the Miami Dade Airport back in January of ’07? I’m surprised ...

Vick Flying With A New Flock…
Ick's Corner — Micheal Vick finds himself flying with a new group of birds. Given a second chance with the Eagles, Vick hopes he can be a positive role model and a true team player. My question would be what about Kevin Kolb? Kid with a ton of potential being buried on the depth chart. I talked to a die hard Eagles fan last night and he is very skeptical about Vick being signed. He also finds himself excited about the formation possibilities with DeSean Jackson, Jeremey ...

You have to wonder if any PED’s are involved but it doesn’t seem so because her face is still cute. Cristiane Santos looks like a man and hits very hard. Both of these women hit hard when I watched videos of them. Of course I’m rooting for Gina however because she is hot.

Vick's first practice with the Eagles
All Things Philly Sports — ... expect him to slowly start working on some special plays where he lines up in the backfield and as a receiver. Word has also come out that Andy Reid has told Kevin Kolb and A.J. Feeley that both of their jobs are safe, although I'm not sure what that really means. The Eagles can't actually keep four quarterbacks, can they? Finally, to make your Vick practice experience complete, here is some video from ESPN, complete with an update from Sal Pal: ...

Michael Vick 1st Practice with Eagles, Video
NESW Sports, Sports Videos — ... with Eagles, Video. Is it just me, or is this crazy surreal? Vick is playing football. Vick is not in a Falcons uniform. Vick is not the starter? Vick is working with the scout team? I do not think this will fully sink in ’till after he plays in his first preseason game. Then I will need it to sink in again when he plays in his first regular season game week 3-6. I am 100% positive that Roger will shorten the suspension by 2-3 weeks.

Surprisingly, one of Laimbeer's biggest supporters to get a job is none other than Charles Barkley. The two famously fought in the original Malice at the Palace in the early 90s. Pretty sure in todays NBA, this would get you a one year suspension. Back then, ...

Matt Davison 5th on Pat Forde's 'Foulest Villians Of Them All' List
Double Extra Point — In Pat Forde's lastest ESPN column " Foulest 40 villains of them all ," Nebraska's Matt Davison comes in very high at #5. Said Forde: " 5. Matt Davison -- Nebraska wide receiver, 1997-2000 Hated by: Missouri, Michigan. Claim to Infamy: Davison was the previously anonymous guy on the receiving end of the flea-kicker, a pass that altered the course of the 1997 season. Trailing 38-31 against Missouri on the last play of regulation, the pass flew from Cornhuskers quarterback Scott Frost to wingback Shevin Wiggins -- who did not catch it, instead kicking it into the air as he fell to the ground. Davison then dove in out of nowhere ...

The Washington Nationals simply had no other choice, they had to break the bank to sign top overall pick Stephen Strasburg. While Nats fans were left biting their nails, the deal came down to the wire, but in the end Boras’ ludicrous demand for upwards of $20 million were left to the dogs and Strasburg became a ...

Paulus Gets the Nod
Writing the Pine — Greg Paulus was named starting quarterback yesterday for the Syracuse Orange.  That’s got to be a slap in the face to former #1 Ryan Nassib and last year’s starter Cam Dantley.

After you’ve watched the ESPN video, do you think Paulus winning the job had more to do with his football ability or the university’s desire to breath life and national interest back into a down-and-out program?

You won’t ever convince me that Chilly just called him out of the blue on Monday and they whipped this thing together. I stand by my assertion that it was planned this way all along. We were played. The other players were played. The media were played.

Brett might want to get back at his old team, but maybe his old team would not mind getting back at him.
