DO YOU KNOW WHERE YOUR DRIVERS ARE???

Top 50 drivers ranked in KACSPORTS exclusive 2007 Fantasy NASCAR Preview.

 
MLS TEAM HOOKS UP WITH ARSENAL: Legendary EPL club Arsenal signs agreement to partner with the Colorado Rapids of MLS. In the agreement, the soccer clubs will exchange business, commercial and marketing information as well as the transfer of coaching and training philosophies. The deal also includes the creation of the Arsenal Center of Excellence in Denver and the Arsenal Cup, a tournament involving youth soccer clubs that will be held annually at the new stadium the Rapids are set to open in April. An Arsenal representative said the team is extending it's brand into America 'because the Americans might produce some players at some stage and that's why we do it.' (like maybe one or two). The Rapids even considered changing their name to Colorado Arsenal or Arsenal Colorado and had even registered the domain names. Instead the team just chose a uniform makeover, the blue and black vertical stripes giving way to new kits that mostly feature the maroon used by the Colorado Avalanche. MLS teams acquiring 'sister teams' from major European leagues is becoming a trend, Real Salt Lake for instance, is partnered with Real Madrid.

RSL STADIUM DEAL DONE FOR REAL THIS TIME??? I thought they had broken ground and everything on this last August. Now it turns out that the deal for Real Salt Lake's stadium encountered road blocks with elected officials saying it was too risky?? (MLS Soccer, risky?? NAH!!). Owner Dave Checketts was yet again ready to relocate to his hown town of St. Louis before yet more 11th hour legislative manuevering finally secured the stadium deal once and for all - we think...


SHOCKER - JOHN SMOLTZ DIVORCE: The agency representing the potential future Hall of Fame pitcher said Friday that Smoltz and his wife of 16 years have mutually agreed to split. The couple have four school-age children, a son and three daughters. Well-known in Atlanta for his strong religious views, Smoltz joined with his wife to form the John and Dyan Smoltz Foundation in 1997. The couple helped raise millions of dollars for to build a Christian school in suburban Atlanta. Smoltz also led his teammates in collection efforts to help victims of Hurricane Katrina, earning the Roberto Clemente Award for community service in 2005.


THE GREEN MILE: Celtics losing streak reaches 17, think Red didn't have good timing cashing out???


HOLD THE MAYO, O.J. SUSPENDED THREE GAMES: High school hoops star O.J. Mayo has been suspended for three games, according to an agreement between the West Virginia Secondary School Activities Commission, the high school and Mayo's attorney. Two games of the three-game suspension were handed down as punishment by the WVSSAC. The third game is part of a 13-day suspension handed down by the school for poor representation of the school. Both punishments will run concurrently.


PAY RAISE: Bret Bielema gets 5 year/$4 million contract ripped up, replaced by a 5 year/$7.5 million deal: after one of Wisconsin's best season's in school history. Still don't know if that will be enough if he had another great year and someone offered Nick Saban-like numbers. There was a provision in the original contract where Bielema would had almost been forced to pay back all of this year's salary had he left for another school.


'WE'RE LIKE THE COPS!!!' Joakim Noah talks some serious smack after unaminous top-ranked Florida 'lays down the law' with a convincing win before a frenzied atmosphere at Georgia. Says Joakim, 'We're like the cops. The college students are having a party, and we're going to bust it. No more kegs. No more keg stands. We're taking everything away. No more party.' I think Georgia could be 2-10 in the SEC and there would still be a party, actually we know Gainsville was really partying when Ron Zook had them on the skids.


PROJECTED TOP SEEDS??? See if your team is currently projected for one of the top 16 seeds in the NCAA Men's basketball tourney, plus an explanation of the selection process.


DIVISION 3 PROGRAM PLANS DRUG TESTING: The University of Wisconsin-Stout will require athletes to undergo random drug testing after December police raids netted steroids and other drugs from the homes of two football players. All of the football team's 100 players will be tested this spring for commonly abused drugs such as cocaine and marijuana, and a quarter will be randomly tested for steroids, according to school officials.


HOLD THE PHONE BARRY: Bud Selig says he is not sure about attending Giants games if and when Barry Bonds approaches Hank Aaron's career home run record, saying that phoning his congratulations might suffice - now does Barry answer that call, would he answer the president calling???

SHOULD ASU DIS-ASSOCIATE WITH BONDS: Arizona State student writer says Bonds retired jersey should be removed from the athletic facilities on campus. Also wonders what was up with Giants recent decision to write letters to season-ticket holders explaining why they were bringing Bonds back.


REGGIE BUSH LINK TO MCKNIGHT SIGNING??? USC is looking into whether it may have violated NCAA recruiting rules while pursuing highly rated recruit Joe McKnight, according to a university official. McKnight signed a national letter of intent with USC on Wednesday and made comments during a news conference that seemed to suggest communications involving former Trojan Reggie Bush - such contact would be in violation of NCAA rules.


FAN FROM PALACE BRAWL SENTENCED AFTER PAROLE VIOLATION: He was the only fan from that infamous night on November 19, 2004 to be charged with a felony. No it was not John Green. Bryant Jackson has been found guilty of a probation violation because he did not attend anger management classes or pay $6,000 in restitution. In March 2005, Jackson pleaded no contest to one count of felony assault and one count of misdemeanor assault and battery. He was accused of dislodging a metal chair and heaving it over his head as Indiana Pacers players fought with Detroit Pistons fans.


JUNIOR DEMANDS 51 PERCENT: Earnhardt raises stakes in showdown with stepmom.


SOMETHING FISHY DOWN IN CHAMPAGNE??? Ron Zook raises eyebrows with top-ten recruiting class, along with suspicions. Somebody call Bruce Pearl on this case...


LISA NOWAK HAS SYMPATHY FROM HUSBAND OF FALLEN ASTRONAUT: Disgraced astronaut Lisa Nowak is getting some support, including from the husband of an astronaut who was among the victims in the 2003 Columbia disaster. Doctor Jon Clark says Nowak provided invaluable support to his family after his wife, Laurel Clark, was killed, even though it took Nowak away from her own family. Clark, who used to be a NASA flight surgeon, says there is 'a lot of marital stress' among astronauts. And he says it's not unheard of for professional relationships to become something else.

NOWAK CAREER 'LIKELY' RUINED: Ah, a little more than likely. As well as currently being on 30-day leave, Nowak likely faces military court-martial on adultry charges among other things.


PACERS THE NEW JAIL-BLAZERS??? The team has desperately tried to improve it's image by trading Ron Artest and Stephen Jackson, but the truly great teams find others who take their place. Sounds like that's the case with the Pacers, as word now comes that a bar manager sustained a broken jaw late Monday night, with police saying that Pacers players Jamaal Tinsley, Marquis Daniels, and Keith McLeod were involved. The incident occurred after former Pacers Al Harrington and Stephen Jackson led Golden State (see additional story below) to a win over the Pacers earlier in the evening.


JOHN DALY LOOKS TO REBOUND: After a disastrous 2006 season which included domestic difficulties, a bum hand, a broken pinkie, a sore hip, a sciatic nerve, a gastrointestinal virus and finally the loss of his Tour card, Daly says he's a new man this year with a new coach and improved health. Daly has more than 20 exemptions for tournaments this year and scored a top-30 at the Sony Open in Hawaii. Daly says he and his coach have spent the off-season on improving his putting.


SIGNING DAY ARRIVES: Ah yes, if you have CSTV or ESPNU you can spend all day watching prize recruits playing that silly game of standing at a table with team hats of five college programs, the recruit acts like he's going to pick up one hat before bluffing and donning another. Gets kind of tiring after a while. Anyways, running back Joe McKnight along with 'athlete' Chad Jones are the two biggest unclaimed prizes as of this morning, considering both are from Louisiana there will be a mutiny if LSU doesn't get one if not both prizes. And if Alabama gets one of them I'm really going to want to know what's going on here. Meanwhile, that USC program that's about to get the book thrown at them over Reggie Bush - they have reportedly landed the 6th, 8th, 11th, and 17th best players on the board, guess they have not gotten that memo yet. I'll say it again, Yahoo was just trying to start a circus coinciding with the Saints possibly being in the Super Bowl. You can check out the complete top 100 list here.

UPDATE - LSU GOES 1-2 LSU does land Chad Jones, but McKnight is wooed away by USC - so now SC has the 2nd, 6th, 8th, 11th, and 17th players on the board. Not bad considering Pete Carroll is going to get wooed away by the NFL any year and SC is going to land on probation any year.


BROTHER OF MARIO DANELO QUESTIONS CORONER: Mario Danelo's older brother isn't convinced the Southern California kicker fell to his death last month, despite the findings of law enforcement. The LA County Coroner said in an autopsy report that Danelo was legally drunk (.23) at the time of his death, but couldn't reach other conclusions. In an interview with the Associated Press, Joey Danelo, 29, had the following to say: 'Nobody knows what happened to him that night. I don't believe that he fell from the top of that cliff - no way. That's just my personal opinion. I don't believe that's what happened. There are countless scenarios that could have taken place to get him where he got. There was a cliff, there were internal injuries. The path of least resistance is he could have fallen. There are other possibilities that could have put him at the bottom of that cliff. Things just don't make sense. It's confusing, there are no answers out there. We live one block away from those cliffs we were down at the tide pools at the bottom of that cliff our whole life. He was familiar with that area.' My opinion??? Sounds strange that they don't want to rule out suicide, may or may not be a foul play issue but I wouldn't be surprised if insurance has something to do with it.


WARRIORS GET WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP RECEPTION!!! Or let's just say this may be as close as the Golden State Warriors will ever get to being paraded as World Champions. You see, Golden State had a road game in Indiana on Monday night. Which was fine except the team needed a police escort because they were going to go through a parade route on the way to the arena, something about a football team that won a big game over the weekend. So when fans saw chartered buses with tinted windows, they went beserk figuring their beloved Super Bowl Champion Colts had arrived, when in reality it was just a visiting NBA team with a couple ex-Pacers on it. It gets better, the second bus gets into a minor traffic scrape, it turns Stephen Jackson (who still has some legal matters to tend to in Indy) was onboard. Had the parade watchers known that they may had gotten inside to grab S-Jax and throw him UNDER THE BUS!!! It wouldn't had been a bad idea, once at the arena Jackson threw down 36 points in a Golden State win.


FIGURE SKATING V. FOOTBALL, COUPLE BATTLE OVER THE TUBE: Once ESPN yields over to CBS when the Super Bowl is about to start, they know they have little chance drawing viewers to anything but something that a 'non-football audience' would watch, which means if you happen to be a figure skating junkie you are in heaven - as ESPN aired the European Skating Championship followed by the U.S. Figure Skating Championship. That's great unless there's a house with only one TV and he wants to watch football while she wants to watch skating. In this case this leads to Robert 'Bubba' Sweetwater, 34, attempting to take the garotte to his wife, Lucretia, 33, with the bootlace from a figure skate after she hit him over the head with an unopened beer bottle. According to authorities, this was just one of several thousand cases of domestic violence reported around the nation Sunday for similar reasons. Do we really need Dr. Laura to solve this one??? Get a second TV, Tivo the skating, or let her watch skating while you go to the sportsbar - this ain't 1966 anymore!!!


BOXER WON'T BURY THE HATCHET: A professional boxer is out on bail following a weekend arrest on suspicion of chasing his sparring partner through the Big Bear Lake area of Southern California with a hatchet. O'Neil Bell, a 32-year-old cruiserweight, is accused of assaulting his sparring partner. He threw rocks at the man while chasing him through the woods before allegedly trying to hit him with a hatchet. The boxer carried the hatchet as a precaution against a possible bear attack. A San Bernardino County sheriff's spokesperson termed the incident as 'a verbal exchange that got a little out of hand'. It is said that the mountain resort area is popular with boxers because of the altitude. It is said that Oscar de la Hoya and Mike Tyson are among the frequent visitors to the Big Bear Valley. If I knew Tyson was going to be in my neighborhood I'd arm myself with a hatchet too.


CHARGERS GET SLIM NOD AS SUPER BOWL 42 FAVORITES: Chargers go into the off-season as 9-2 favorites to win it all next year, while the Indy Colts are 5-1 odds to repeat. The Chicago Bears are the third choice at 7-1 (wouldn't go with that) while New England checks in at 9-1 (that might be a good choice). New Orleans and Cincinnati currently go off at 12-1 (no, and no) followed by the Ravens at 14-1 and Seattle at 15-1. Not surprisingly the Raiders are the biggest longshots at 150-1 and I wouldn't even call that a good wager.


HOUSTON, SHE'S GOT A PROBLEM!!! It's no secret to those of you who read the sports pages daily that professional and collegiate athletes run afoul from the law from time to time. It gets a lot of publicity, but at the end of the day the number of athletes and other celebrities who find trouble is not really disproportinate to the rest of society. Astronauts are a different animal however. They are hand-picked and are the best of the best of the best of the best. Anyone who has anything close to a rap sheet need not apply. In the past about the only example I can think of a past or present astronaut getting into trouble is Buzz Aldrin smacking someone who asked him if the moon landing was a production a few years back, and at least that's understandable. Which leads us to one Lisa Nowak, a 43-year old mother of three who flew aboard a space shuttle mission last summer. It's also said that Nowak has a 'relationship' with fellow astronaut William Oefelein. Unfortunately, so did another, younger woman, who happened to be in Houston over the weekend. So how did Lisa handle this one??? Well, she found out a flight that woman was arriving on in Orlando (from Houston), and decided to drive there from Houston. And Lisa made the trip well planned, armed with a BB gun as well as some pepper spray, a buck knife, and a wig. Lisa also made the trip wearing the same diapers astronauts wear during lift-off and re-entry. This is so she woundn't have to take a potty break on the way. In any event, Nowak caught up with her 'rival' on the way to her rental car and ended up giving her a dose of pepper spray. She says she meant no harm, just wanted to give her 'a good talking to'. Nowak was arrested soon after when observed trying to throw her wig and the BB gun into the trash. Now Nowak stands charged with attempted kidnapping, battery, attempted vehicle burglary with battery, and destruction of evidence. She's being held without bail and could face life if convicted of all charges. As of right now NASA says she is still employed, but I don't think we will be seeing her going back into orbit anytime soon.


SIGNING DAY APPROACHES:

SAN DIEGO PROSPECTS MOSTLY CHOOSING PAC-10: The fact that San Diego St. is coming off a 3-9 season and their conference has a lousy TV contract plus an uncertain stadium situation does not help.

FLORIDA WITH BEST CLASS??? No surprise with a team coming off a national championship, and absolutely no shock that USC and Texas is not far behind. Surprises in this top-ten include South Carolina at #4 and Illinois at #10.


RAIN-SOAKED SUPER BOWL A TV HIT: People are suggesting on TV today that Sunday night's downpour may prompt the NFL to move to permenantly hold Super Bowls in domed stadiums, noting that there were actually empty seats during the game, giving the game the atmosphere of a regular-season Dolphins game. However there were no problems with the TV ratings, as the contest rated second all-time in number of homes watched (third for all TV shows watched period), only trailing Super Bowl 30 between Dallas and Pittsburgh. Viewers did not waste time flicking to another channel once the game ended however, as they were not impressed by CBS's offering of an episode of Criminal Minds. That show only drew 26.2 million viewers compared to 38.1 who watched Grey's Anatomy following last year's Super Bowl.

IS THIS IT FOR DUNGY??? Where was Brent Musberger when you needed him at the podium last night - is this the last game on the sidelines for a classy coach, Tony Dungy??? Well someone else asked the question and so far Dungy's not saying one way or another.


BLUE HORSESHOE BERET - COLTS WIN NFL TITLE: And in honor of Prince doing the halftime show Peyton Manning wins a little red Corvette (OK, it was actually a Cadillac) as games MVP. Devin Hester makes history in his hometown by being the first player to ever return a Super Bowl opening kickoff for a touchdown, unfortuantely Devin could not play quarterback. Slowly but surely Blue Horseshoe took over in an unprecedented rain-soaked Super Bowl, not necessarily by a Peyton Manning arial assault, but by unexpectedly pounding the Bears defense to submission to the tune of nearly 200 rushing yards.


REPORT - FUTURE SUBSTANCE ABUSE BANS TO ELIMINATE OFFENDERS FORM PRO BOWL CONSIDERATION: Commissioners decison expected to come down as Shawn Merriman is schuduled to appear in next weekend's Pro Bowl. The Dolphins Jason Taylor was among may who felt that Merriman should had been automatically eliminated from Defensive Player of the Year consideration as well as other post-season awards after being suspended for four games earlier in the season.
