Police: Tiger’s Wife Used Golf Club To Assist Him

Doug Ferguson of the ASSOCIATED PRESS reports this afternoon:

A local police chief in Florida says Tiger Woods’ wife used a golf club to smash out the back window and helped get the golfer out of the car.

Windermere Police Chief Daniel Saylor told The Associated Press on Friday that Elin Nordegren told officers she was in the house when she heard the accident and came outside. Saylor says officers found Woods laying in the street with his wife hovering over him.

Closer look at Shoppach who might be available...

Since the Mets are in the market for a catcher, anytime I come across any information on an available catcher I pass it along.
I personally would rather see the Mets acquire a catcher through free agency and save their chips either for further development or bigger pieces they attempt to acquire. I just don't see the significant up-grade in players that can be traded for from those on the free agent market.
With that said I've heard a lot of Mets fans who feel just the opposite,Source: Mets Fever RSS Feed

Carrie Prejean and Kyle Boller Are Dating

Carrie Prejean and Kyle Boller? That’s what Radar claims. Prejean, if you’ve been in a coma all year, was Miss California, then the runner-up for Miss USA, and has been involved in all sorts of wacky, lame controversies (breast implants, same-sex marriage, sex tape, etc) that have dominated the headlines. Kyle Boller is a horrible NFL quarterback on the St. Louis Rams who has a history of success with the moderately famous women (Tara Reid, Petra Nemcova). He’s also a well-known cad onSource: The Big Lead RSS Feed

Shaq Ducks Arenas Awkwardness With Shoulder Injury

November NBA is probably the best thing going down tonight.  The Cavs have won five-straight and they’re going against the Wizards who have lost six in a row.  This would have been far more intriguing, if Shaq had been playing.

Wilt, Kareem, Shaq all ended up with the Lakers.  What about LeBron?  Sign and trade with package built around Bynum?

I will be heading to my first vegan restaurant for dinner, followed by a cleansing of that wholesome goodness with a late-nightSource: The Big Lead RSS Feed

Nike’s CTR360 Trequartista AG Boots/Cleats Product Review

Nike is a relative newcomer to the boot game. What Nike has lacked in substance they’ve usually made up in style. Their autumn ad campaign channels Irvine Welsh’s finest prose by asking us to choose; choose control, choose speed, choose accuracy, choose touch or choose 5-a-side. I chose control, specifically Nike’s CTR360 Trequartista AG. Trequartista; can a pair of boots invoke the continental flair of a Zizou or Francesco Totti? Just Do It. Or, as Cesc Fabregas would say, “BonSource: EPL Talk RSS Feed

Pineiro intrigues Mets...

According to Adam Rubin at the Daily News the Mets are intrigued by Joel Pineiro. This is the second time this short off-season that Pineiro has been mentioned. It all depends on who you talk to in regards to him, some believe he always had the talent and just became confident in his skills, while others believe he's a product of Dave Duncan. In St. Louis, Pineiro has been a ground ball machine that will need a strong defense behind him, meaning the right side of the infield needs someSource: Mets Fever RSS Feed
