“The next time a photographer shoots a f***ing picture, I’m going to break his f***ing neck.”-Tiger Woods to a group of photographers at Doral on Saturday.
I must admit to being a touch perplexed by the interest in Tiger Woods’ foul mouth and his display of anger on Saturday during the third round of the CA Championship. It isn’t like he hasn’t done it before. I remember Woods clearly uttering “motherf***er,” while snapping a ball into the ocean at the 18th at Pebble Beach during the U.S. Open, for example.

In Canada's first morning draw of the Men's World Curling Championship on Tuesday, a last-shot draw from Kevin Martin helped the rink earn a 9-8 victory over Thomas Ulsrud and his Norway teammates.
Martin's rock had to slide by a pair of Norwegian stones, then dig in to the eight-foot ring for the win. But according to the skip, everything went as planned.

I love watching the Little league World Series and how much effort these youngsters put into trying to win. MY only question is at what costs. Coaches and people who run this don’t seem to understand they are hurting these young pitchers. Looking over it they need to limit pitch counts on these kids.
Throwing a curve ball is real tough on young arms and could do damage down the road. I hope one day that they will look into starting a mandatory pitch count rule and save some of these young arms.

Jaguars @ Steelers:I think the Jacksonville Jaguars will win this game.The Jaguars are a team who can match the Steelers in physical strength.The jaguars have a great run defense and a decent pass defense.The Steelers love to pound the ball up the middle in the running game.There is one problem though; they lost Willie Parker for the rest of the season.They now have Najeh Davenport.Parker was a quicker running back.Davenport is a tougher running back.The Jaguars are great at collapsing the middle of the line.The Steelers are not going to be able to run the ball very well.Ben Roethlisberger is a great quarterback, but it will be tough to pass with no running game.Rashean Mathis is also a great corner back. Maurice Jones-Drew and Fred Taylor are great running backs.The Steelers have a very good run defense so that will be a very good match up.David Garrard has been playing some outstanding football.He has been finding all of his receivers and has great pocket presence.He can also run the ball effectively.This will be a tough match but the Jags should win.
