It wasn't supposed to be close and it wasn't

Some will argue this performance was too-little-too-late, and while there ismerit to that, I feel it's wrong to take nothing good out of Monday's win.Regardless of how the season were to finish, 2009 was a complete wash for the Bears on the field. I leave that to my parents who like to see where I'm at in the rankings. An 8-3 record will get people to forget "Practice Watch Gate" ever happened.RR's contract has a clause in it for major violations. He can be savvy and still be nervous asall get-out.One key here is howwell (if at all) Calais Campbell plays. Wyoming, 62-14 win): Rushed for 222 yards on 29 carries, caught two passes for 36 yards, and scored five touchdowns Matt Leinart , USC (2005 Orange Bowl vs. Perhaps he knew something deep down.Holtz was allowed to bring in certain players that didn't meet academic standards for a good portion of his tenure.

Mickie james will get her rematch so why not throw beth into the mix and we have our dream divas match.RAW:Fatal Four Way Winner take all mixed tag match.Here is a new inovative idea that could see some new wrestlemania faces go at it. This team succeeds in part because of Nate, not in spite of him.Are the Nate criticisms just the old clich?e proven? I think so. He was just going to be an added bonus.He was just going to be their lastresort, their "rookie to the rescue".But now that's over.Now, it's on to the future, at least for Griffin.When asked about the bad luck and negative connotations that come with playing for the Clippers after he was drafted, Griffin shrugged it off, and claimed that everyone (and every team) makes their own luck.That's a true statement. This battle-tested squad gave Texas all they could handle in Austin.

It wasn't supposed to be close and it wasn't. Many had already crowned the Cowboys as the team to beat in NFC and the best team in the NFL. The Volunteers suffered a huge blow when four of their key players were arrested on New Year's Day.Those four Vols were Tyler Smith (who has been released), Brian Williams, Cameron Tatum, and Melvin Goins (all three awaiting a trial and are indefinately suspended).This leaving them with only six scholarship players left on their active roster.Surprisingly, since the arrests the depleted Vols have played better basketball. Well, at least that we know of.In short, TNA has pulled out several stops in their quest to promote Hogan's partnership with the company. Yikes.John Salmons is the leading three-point shooter on the Bulls with 38 made, but no one is within 15 of that total. Something has to change in the Bulls' offensive strategy. If you don't have the shooters, that's one thing, but you better make up for it in other ways (second chance points, free throws, points in the paint, etc.). Can we pull Steve Kerr out of retirement? They can play defense sort ofAt 97 points per game, the Bulls defense is holding their own. That total puts them in the top half of the league, so it's hard to fault their performance on the other side of the court.But still, is this defense going to win you key games down the stretch when your offense is non-existent? Probably not.With a good mixture of size, speed, and depth, there's reason to believe the Bulls could be even better defensively. But walking the walk is harder than talking the talk.All you need to know about the Bulls defense is it can be very, very inconsistent. The monumental collapse against the Sacramento Kings two weeks ago is evidence enough that the Bulls will be absent-minded at times and act like they have better things to do.Scoring, of course, is not one of them. If he can improve the approach at the plate in the minors this season, he could very well find himself in the mix for a roster spot in 2011.10.
