Friday, July, 25, 2008 - Highschool Reunion

-What a pick-up for the Milwaukee Brewers in CC (no dot) Sabathia, who recently capped off his 3rd complete game in a row. CC could soon be seeing CY attatched to his name, if he keeps this streak up.
-LeBronze has gone on record (in a Time magazine story) and guaranteed a gold medal for Team USA. I compare this to when Jameer Nelson guaranteed a victory over the Pistons, in the sense that I'd be much more comfortable hearing a guy like Jason Kidd or Kobe Bryant make that claim. You know, a guy with at least some credibility to his Olympic resume...
-A load of suspensions handed out by the WNBA - 5 from each team involved in the scuffle. That's gotta be another record.
-It was reported that Brett Favre recently made a phone call to the Minnasota Vikings using a Green Bay Packers issued cell phone. What is the man thinking?
-Mats Sundin says that he will make his decision in two weeks time, and the Leafs are still in the mix. Mike Gillis, the GM of the Canucks thinks that it's a two-man race between the Leafs and Vancouver. Maybe Leafs fans will get their fairy tale ending they desire after all.
-Man-U's Christiano Ronaldo was asked whether he would follow in David Beckham's footsteps in later years. He stated that it's a possiblity that he would play for the LA Galaxy, as he has heard good things about the organization.
-If the Red Sox intend to let Manny Ramirez walk, word in Beantown is that they'll make a strong go at Matt Holiday to replace him, depending on Holliday's availability and not necessarily on Manny.
-For those hoping for a Federer-Nadal rematch for the ages...you can scratch that off your wish list, as Roger Federer has bowed out of the Rogers Cup already.
-Two former high school classmates of Tim Donaghy were sentenced to more than a year in prison for involvement in the NBA betting scandal. Just another piece of what seems to be a giant puzzle solved.
-Carlos Boozer "hinted" at staying with the Jazz, and Deron Williams thinks Boozer will just because he's there. Not too long ago, a player even more talented than D-Will thought the same thing in Cleveland. Just saying it's a possiblity.
