Maybe they want the Sixers taking those shots

He did not throw a touchdown pass but was intercepted twice, which resulted in a passer rating of 43.2 rating.Brohm kept the passes short, mixing in screens and quick tosses to prevent Atlanta's pressure from resulting in more sacks. Maybe they want the Sixers taking those shots.Maybe Jordan should have a "Plan A" (like the play to Speights) and a "Plan B," both drawn inside the three-point line , in case "Plan A" goes to hell.But for the love of God, coach Jordan, please tell your players to stop jacking up low-percentage threes as their final shot in a close game?I know your Princeton offense got put on the shelf for now, but there's a few fundamental basketball plays that these Sixers still need to learn.Please teach them to take a smart shot if they're going to try and win a game at the buzzer. President Bush made separate calls to Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and Pakistan's Zardari on Wednesday, urging cooperation in the investigation. I must admit that I get uneasy with this yearly speculation that comes up surrounding Temple's other high-profile coach, Al Golden.Word comes tonight from multiple reliable sources that Al Golden has withdrawn his name for consideration for the East Carolina head football coaching job, reportedly telling Terry Holland to politely take his job and shove it.Politely, of course. I know that Stuart is expected back this month, and Bergeron is expected back late this month to early next month.However, that doesn't change the fact that the Bruins are going to have to play the next few weeks without some crucial players.

Surely you didn't expect they'd fire him.Come on, Bucs followers.Raheem Morris played with the lousy hand he was dealt in the season that was the 2009 Bucs.THE WORLD said those Bucs would stink, and they didn't fail to disappoint.Three wins was about theconsensus. The mega-fight between two of the worlds greatest fighters has been in a whirlwind of negotiations lately. No starting of a center (Chris Spencer) that is snapping the ball with his off-hand.But most importantly...Carroll will never give any indication of uncertainty as to where this team is and where it is going.His team will be conditioned, prepared, and will play with the swagger necessary for preliminary success in the NFL. This is part two in an ongoing series evaluating the possible head coaches for the Buffalo Bills next season.Most people would have expected the first part to be an evaluation of the biggest name out there connected with the Buffalo Bills, former Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Bill Cowher.I went a different route for sentimental reasons, but fear not, for here is that evaluation. So what exactly does Bill Cowher bring to the table as a head coach? For one, experience: 15 years as the head coach of the Pittsburgh Steelers. It just doesn?t make much sense.Consistency is the biggest problem with Daboll?s offense. On a team with future Hall of Famers such as Derek Jeter, Alex Rodriquez, Mark Teixeira, Mariano Rivera and CC Sabathia, the kid could have been overwhelmed.Instead, he took charge and added some fire to the team when they needed it most.Cervelli was also confronted with a pitching staff that included veterans Sabathia, AJ Burnett and Andy Pettitte. "The Baby-Faced Assasin" delivered a near-perfect display against a supreme talent.There have been claims that Hamed was anover-hyped media phenomenon.

Can you name an opponent in Wilt's 100 point game? Wilt's disappointing losses in 69 and 70 render him no higher than here. After passing its first two tests of the season, Texas has almost done enough to pass Kansas as the top team in the Bleacher Report Top 25.The Longhorns knocked off North Carolina two weeks ago in convincing fashion, then did the same thing to defend their home floor against Michigan State.Texas ranks first in the nation in defensive efficiency and 14th in offensive efficiency, which has allowed the Longhorns to dominate both ends of the floor.At this point, Rick Barnes' club can cruise into conference play with a schedule littered with cupcakes until the next real test comes January 16th against Texas A&M.Kansas keeps the top spot for now, and the Jayhawks have a chance to re-strengthen their grip on first, with several tough opponents coming up.Over the next two weeks, Kansas will head to Temple and Tennessee as well as host Cornell at home.KU needs these games to bolster its non-conference schedule, which took a hit when California, Michigan, and UCLA failed to live up to expectations.The final six unbeaten teams remain unchanged at the top of the poll: Kentucky, Syracuse, Purdue, and West Virginia round out the top six.If you're a Bleacher Report member and interested in voting in the Bleacher Report Top 25 poll, email Jameson Fleming at to receive a ballot.Ranking, Team (record through Sunday), votes (first place votes), ranking last week1 Kansas 11-0, 317 (8), Last Week: 12 Texas 11-0, 310 (3), Last Week: 23 Kentucky 13-0, 302 (1), Last Week: 34 Syracuse 12-0, 290 (1), Last Week: 45 Purdue 11-0, 274, Last Week: 56 West Virginia 10-0, 257, Last Week: 67 Duke 9-1, 241, Last Week: 78 Villanova 11-1, 239, Last Week: 89 Michigan State 9-3, 202, Last Week: 910 Connecticut 9-2, 188, Last Week: 1011 North Carolina 9-3, 178, Last Week: 1112 Georgetown 9-1, 174, Last Week: 1213 Kansas State 11-1, 158, Last Week: 1514 Ohio State 10-2, 150, Last Week: 1415 Tennessee 9-2, 140, Last Week: 1316 Clemson 11-2, 121, Last Week: 1817 Washington 9-2, 103, Last Week: 2118 Mississippi 10-2, 93, Last Week: 1919 Wisconsin 10-2, 84, Last Week: 2020 New Mexico 12-1, 76, Last Week: 1721 Florida 8-3, 54, Last Week: 1622 Texas Tech 10-1, 52, Last Week: 2223 Oklahoma State 10-1, 30, Last Week: Not Ranked24 Texas A&M 9-3, 27, Last Week: Not Ranked25.

Stuart is one of the Bruins' youngest defenseman but has shown plenty of promise already. At age 22, Derrick Robinson will be attending his second big league spring training.Over his limited time in Royal blue, Robinson has benefited from the mentoring of David DeJesus and Coco Crisp?both quality defensive outfielders?while not being rushed through the system.His overall potential could have made that rush tempting.Winner of "Best Athlete" and "Best Outfielder" honors in Baseball America's report, Robinson's path to Kauffman Stadium is relatively clear.
