Nate Robinson, the shortest player in the NBA, a fire cracker who can spark a team says he would like to play football in the NFL if the NBA lockout continues.
Many of the NBA players are considering playing basketball internationally and talking about going overseas if the lockout remains in effect into the season.
On the other hand, Nate Robinson would like to join the ranks of the NFL for a bit. He plans on trying out if the NFL lockout ends in time for training camps.
In order to save the NFL 2011 season there must be compromises between all parties involved. They are all adults. They know the importance or working together for the better common good, at least I sure hope so. Talk it out, negotiate, make a deal that all can live with.
We’ve all wondered what would happen if they don’t come to terms.
What would we do without America’s favorite sport? What would come of all involved in NFL Football from the players, the coaches, the news commentators, the merchandiser’s, the fans and everyone else involved?
Boston Celtics started the night down 0-2 against Miami Heat, but they are back in the series with a 97-81 win.
Celtics Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce were the power in the 3rd game of the series against the Heat, but the talk of the game was Rajon Rondo
During the third quarter Rondo got tangled up with Miami Heat’s Dwyane Wade coming down full force on his left elbow causing it to hyper-extend. He was removed from the game and taken to the locker room to be examined.
The Jets and Steelers are facing off for the top spot in the AFC playoffs at Pittsburgh this coming Sunday. The big question is which team will going to the Super Bowl?
Pittsburgh has the best defense statistically this year.
Ben has led the Steelers to Super Bowl victory twice. His first win came in 2005 during his second year in the NFL. At age 23 Roethlisberger became the youngest quarterback to win the Super Bowl in NFL history.
What a day for Donovan McNabb and the Washington Redskins. McNabb received a standing ovation from the Eagles fans before the game started and then led the Redskins to a 17-12 victory.
The Philadelphia Eagles recruited McNabb in the 1999 draft where he spent his first 11 seasons. Donovan was the Eagles starting quarterback until he was traded to the Washington Redskins in 2010.
Baltimore Ravens starting quarterback Troy Smith came down with a rare case of tonsillitis two years ago allowing rookie Joe Flacco to step in. Flacco’s sharp arm and intuitive skills proved Joe an asset to the Ravens and he has been their starter ever since.
Troy Smith played in the the fourth preseason game and despite some errors, he did make the best of the situation. A press release explains that Baltimore feels it is best to keep just two quarterbacks on the team, Joe Flacco and backup Marc Bulger.
If you’ve kept up with the news at all, you’ve probably seen a lot of coverage about Pete Rose and whether or not he belongs in Cooperstown. My thoughts about this issue will follow.
Rose was exiled from baseball after being caught gambling on games involving a team he managed about 20 years ago. While he violated a code of conduct, this has nothing to do with anything done while he was a professional baseball player.
Another reason I believe that Pete should be let in is that even though he did bet on the game of baseball, it was after he even quit playing. So a lifetime ban was a little to harsh, don’t you think?
Weighing under two hundred pounds, at six foot three, steve nash rookie card has become more of a player than in the past.

If your fantasy basketball draft is coming up and you’ve been fortunate enough to get the first pick this year, the good news is that you’ll end up with a great player who should carry your team to great levels of success.
While there are some top-notch players at the top of the pack, it may be difficult to figure out who might best suit your team. Depending on the stats you’re targeting, you may want to go with one of the following players.
Boston Celtics take the Los Angeles Lakers 92-86 in the 5th game of the NBA finals. The Celtics at 3-2 are just one win away from the NBA Championship.
The Lakers were out of sync most of the night. Whether or not there is a game 7 will depend on how they bring it in game 6.
Boston has been bringing their A game all the way. They beat the Cleveland Cavaliers, the team with the best record in the regular season. They beat the Orlando Magic, the team with the second best record in the regular season. If they beat the Lakers, they will become the third team to beat the teams with the first, second and third best records in the regular season and win the NBA Championship.
