Top 10

1.Clemens Will have to work out of another Jam, this time there is no pen to bail him out.
Roger Clemens is clearly the most recent big name baseball player who is being accused of juicing in the Mitchell report. Clemens who has been one of MLB's poster boy's on and off the field is now in a huge jam that he may not be able to work out of. We all want to believe the 7 time Cy Young award winner and the guy who is second on Baseball's all time Strikeout list, but this Rocket seems deemed to come to a crash landing. There is much speculation that Clemen's former teammate Andy Pettit will not be providing any relief in the case as he will have to take the hill against Congress himself and also testify against the Rocket if indeed Clemens did get injected with more than just B12 shots.

2. Caroll Talks with Atlanta
Pete Caroll spoke with Falcons owner Arthur Blank about the head coaching job up for grabs in Atlanta. Caroll seems interested in the position which would be another great challenge as he would have to try to resurrect one of the NFL's worst and most troublesome teams. Caroll leaving would be a huge mistake, as he is the stamp of USC football. Furthermore, Caroll would be leaving the Nations top ranked team for 2008 and would forgo another legitimate chance at a National Championship. Remember sneaky Pete did have a couple NFL stints before one with the Jets and another with the Pats, both unsuccessful.

3. Tennessee Volunteered to Upend Ole Miss' Untarnished Record
The Volunteers behind excellent play by Taylor Smith handed the Rebels their first loss of the year in the SEC opener. Smith poured in 21 including the game winning field goal with less than 5 seconds to remain to earn Tennessee an 85-83 win and improving their season to a 13-1 start.

4. Celtics get no Lucky Charms in loss to Bobcats
Boston had only dropped three games overall during there present run during the 07-08 campaign, shredding through the NBA on a historical pace. However, Charlotte was a thorn in the C's side on Wednesday night beating Boston 95-83 thanks to a healthy dose of J Richardson who went off for 34 points. Before the game MJ gave a motivation speach to his team, clearly #23 knows what he is talking about and who better to listen to and play for than "His Airness."

5. Kidd Shaves Both Mustache and Triple Double Streak Wednesday
New Jersey Nets point guard Jason Kidd had grown an interesting "Mangnum PI" mustache four games earlier and had been on a tare on the hardwood recording 3 straight triple doubles going into the game against the Sonics. Well that streak ended as did the mustache which left Kidd back to his normal self. However, more importantly the Nets captured another victory behind J Kidd's 16 points, 11 dimes, and 5 boards. Number 5 is on a historic pace of his own already having 9 triple doubles before the All-Star Break.

6. TO maybe a no go for Dallas, Harrison back for the Colts
Terrell Owens missed practiced once again on Wednesday as his high ankle sprain is still plaguing the most productive Pro Bowl Receiver in the NFC. Although Owens has not ruled out the possibility of lacing em up against the G Men this weekend, things don't look great for Big D. Meanwhile, Marvin Harrison will play against the Chargers, meaning Payton Manning just got his favorite target back just in time. San Diego's secondary is steller and the addition of Harrison provides Manning with two number one type targets in the Colt's hope of advancing to the AFC title game.

7. Pistons Breaking Down Against the NBA's Best
Detroit dropped another game last night, this time to the Dallas Mavericks. The Pistons were extremely hot before playing the Boston Celtics three days ago, however now they have lost two straight and will move on to play San Antonio in their next contest. Detroit is a premier team in the East, however Flip Saunders has to be a little concerned that his team did not show up to play against the Mavs in an important game between the two heavy weights. Credit to the big German, Dirk Nowitzki, who showed why he is the NBA's reigning MVP with a 23 Point night on 10-15 shooting, as well as snaring 9 rebounds.

8. Hawks Soar to Victory Despite King James' 31.
Atlanta spoiled another great game by LeBron who is hurting this season for the same supporting cast he had last year in Cleveland's run to the NBA Finals. Once again the King was outstanding cashing in for 31, 10, and 6. However it was not enough as Joe Johnson netted 29 and Josh Smith added 19 for the Hawks who are a much improved team thus far in '08.

9. LA Rolls Kobe Proving that Winning is Everything
In the past the only criticism about Kobe Bryant was that he has not always been a team first player. However, this certainly has not been the case this season. After all of the trade talks and controversy between Bryant and the Lakers, only good has come about for Los Angeles. Once again Kobe set up teammates and dished the Rock to one of his favorite targets big man, Andrew Bynum, in a solid victory taking the sting out of Chris Paul's Hornets (LA 109 - NO 80).

10. UNC Stays Perfect
Tyler Hansborough and the Tar Heels remained undefeated after their win against UNC Asheville on Wednesday night. The play of the game was clearly Hansborough's posterizing dunk over 7'7" 360 pound giant Kenny George. Hansborough finished with 23, while Ellington added 19 in Carolinas victory.
