			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It wasn&#8217;t a game for the ages by the Buffalo Bills, as they blew much of a 17 point lead to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Still, they did what they had to do and put some offense on the board en route to a 33-20 National Football League victory.</p>
<p>NFL sports betting enthusiasts who took the Bills as -4 home favorites cashed their tickets with the pointspread cover. Despite a 1-1 straight up record, Buffalo improved to 2-0 against the spread. Tampa Bay has lost both of their 2009 NFL games straight up and against the number for a 0-2 mark in both categories.</p>
<p>Terrell Owens capped the game with a long touchdown reception in the fourth quarter. Quarterback Trent Edwards expressed his excitement and seeing T.O show some of his ability to be a deep threat for the team:</p>
<p>I was excited and he was excited. I don&#8217;t really recall what was said, but I&#8217;m honestly hoping that that continues to happen. I think that&#8217;s why we have him.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;We learned our lesson from last week and it&#8217;s a valuable lesson we&#8217;re going to need throughout the season. We have to finish games and that&#8217;s what we did today.&#8221;</p>
<p>Lee Evans also praised his quarterback:</p>
<p>&#8220;It comes down to opportunities. I think Trent wasn&#8217;t afraid to take any chances. You always have to have that threat of the deep play. I think we put it on the table today that we would.&#8221;</p>
<p>A team long known for its suffocating defenses, Tampa Bay has struggled to stop opposing offenses in the first two NFL regular season games under new head coach Raheem Morris. The Bucs allowed over 900 yards of offense this season, a fact that defensive stalwart Ronde Barber stressed was unacceptable:</p>
<p>&#8220;They dialed up some things on us that we should have stopped but we didn&#8217;t. Ask the coaches that. I&#8217;m not willing to make a statement on that. It&#8217;s really unacceptable. Good defenses are good tackling defenses.&#8221;</p>
<p>Morris, meanwhile, tried to project an aura of calm:</p>
<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m not worried about their confidence but these guys got to play better.&#8221;</p>
<p>The Bills now host the New Orleans Saints on Sunday, with Buffalo installed as +6 home underdogs. The total for the game has been set at 52. Tampa Bay faces three tough NFC East opponents in the coming weeks, beginning with a Sunday home game against the New York Giants. The Bucs are +6 home underdogs in that game with the total set at 44.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[While NHL hockey players from the country formerly known as Czechoslovakia"as well as other Eastern European nations"are commonplace today, Chicago Blackhawks great Stan Mikita was something of a pioneer. Other players with a flashier game such as Bobby Hull became better known, but you can make a compelling case that Mikita was the best center iceman in professional hockey during the'60s. Mikita was born in Sokolce, in what is now known as Slovakia. He was sent by his family to the Toronto, Ontario area as a young boy to avoid the political strife in the area prior to World War II.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>While NHL hockey players from the country formerly known as Czechoslovakia&#8221;as well as other Eastern European nations&#8221;are commonplace today, Chicago Blackhawks great Stan Mikita was something of a pioneer. Other players with a flashier game such as Bobby Hull became better known, but you can make a compelling case that Mikita was the best center iceman in professional hockey during the&#8217;60s. Mikita was born in Sokolce, in what is now known as Slovakia. He was sent by his family to the Toronto, Ontario area as a young boy to avoid the political strife in the area prior to World War II. An aunt and uncle adopted him, and he changed his name from his birth name of Stanislav Guoth adopting their last name of Mikita. Like most young Canadian boys, he started playing hockey and quickly proved to have an impressive aptitude for the national sport.</p>
<p>Mikita starred for the junior league St. Catherine Teepees as a teenager before making the jump to the NHL joining the Chicago Blackhawks. He quickly became an important part of the Chicago offense in his first and second full seasons as a pro. In&#8217;61, he led the team in playoff scoring as they won the Stanley Cup.</p>
<p>The following year was when Mikita really began to make a mark in professional hockey. Centering the dangerous Scooter Line with Ken Wharram on the right wing and Ab McDonald or Doug Mohns on the left wing, he became one of the most feared offensive scorers and playmakers in the league. While he played in the media shadow of Bobby Hull, Mikita was considered by most hockey cognoscenti to be the real offensive catalyst of the team.</p>
<p>Mikita wasn&#8217;t a one way player by any means&#8211;he was a tenacious defender and one of the best faceoff men in the sport. He&#8217;s also responsible for introducing the curved stick blade to the NHL. It was a radical innovation at the time, but now players who *don&#8217;t* play with a curved blade are a rarity.</p>
<p>Early in his career, Mikita played a tough, rugged style of hockey that made him one of the most penalized players in the game. In the mid&#8217;60s, however, he began to play a much cleaner and more sportsmanlike style that would earn him the Lady Byng Trophy for most gentlemanly player twice. The story goes that he had a change of heart when his young daughter asked why he spent so much time sitting in the box on televised games.</p>
<p>In addition to his Stanley Cup victory, Mikitas career accomplishments rank among the most impressive in the history of the sport. He won the Art Ross Trophy as the NHLs leading scorer four times (1964,&#8217;65,&#8217;67,&#8217;68), the Hart Memorial Trophy for Most Valuable Player twice (1967 and&#8217;68) and the Lady Byng Trophy in&#8217;67 and&#8217;68. He remains the only player in NHL history to win the Ross, Hart and Byng trophies in the same season (1967).</p>
<p>Mikita suffered from chronic back ailments later in his career, and finally retired in&#8217;80 having played his entire career for the Chicago Blackhawks. He was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame in&#8217;83, but became known to a younger generation in a more unusual way. In the movie Waynes World, Wayne and Garth frequently hang out at a donut shop based on the Canadian Tim Hortons chain. The name of the shop is Stan Mikitas Donuts.</p>

		<title>UFC 88 Flashback: Evans Dominates &#8216;The Iceman&#8217;</title>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Rashad Evans didn&#8217;t scream about demanding respect in his prefight interviews because hes smart enough to know that respect must be earned. He earned it and then some with a devastating 2nd round TKO of Chuck Liddell in the main event of UFC 88.</p>
<p>If Evans needed any more validation of how little respect he was getting, he could have taken a look at the UFCs text message prediction poll of the main event which favored The Iceman by a whopping 81% to 19% margin. Or he could have listened to the UFC announcers, who had all but penciled Liddell in for a return to light heavyweight title contention after his inevitable victory.</p>
<p>From the opening horn, Evans showed no fear of Liddell&#8217;s once legendary power. Instead, he danced and moved (which was dumbly criticized as showboating by the UFC announce team), using his slick footwork and speed to dart in and out of range of Liddell&#8217;s punches. In the process, he was able to use his superior handspeed to get off first. His punches weren&#8217;t exactly highlight reel power shots at this point, but were nonetheless effective as evidenced by a cut opened under Liddell&#8217;s eye. For his part, Liddell scored with a few shots of his own, but was clearly frustrated by the evasiveness of his opponent.</p>
<p>Evans highlight reel power shot was to come in the 2nd round. Liddell backed Evans up near the cage wall and went to throw an uppercut. Simultaneously, Evans responded with an overhand right that landed quicker, harder and more accurately. The perfectly placed punch knocked Liddell out cold. Evans&#8217; KO was one of the most devastating in the history of the sport, and made all the more so by the status of the man on the receiving end.</p>
<p>Rashad Evans raised his record to 17-0-1 with the TKO victory. Liddell, meanwhile, saw his record drop to 21-6&#8243;with three of those six losses coming in his last 4 fights.</p>
<p>Liddells loss notwithstanding, it was a good night for UFC veterans as Rich Franklin and Dan Henderson won their fights in impressive fashion. Franklin looked particularly sharp in dismantling tough Matt Hamill, eventually prevailing by 3rd round TKO. Hamill had trouble getting inside for the takedown he needed to compete in the bout, and every time he closed the distance he was met with a barrage of Franklin punches and kicks.</p>
<p>This was the UFC&#8217;s first trip to Atlanta and despite a good attendance the crowd itself was somewhat disappointing. In a marked contrast to the knowledgeable and enthusiastic fans at the Target Center in Minneapolis for UFC 87&#8211;arguably the best MMA crowd ever at a US venue&#8211;the live crowd at Phillips Arena often acted as if they were at a taping of Georgia Championship Wrestling. Every foreign fighter was booed mercilessly&#8211;including South Korean Kim. Kim was treated like legendary Gary Hart managed pro wrestling heel Pak Song as he had to endure a USA chant during his fight. Perhaps the audience didn&#8217;t realize that South Korea has been a US ally since its establishment after WW II. The fighters from other &#8220;longtime adversaries&#8221; of the United States&#8211;Brazil and Holland&#8211;fared somewhat better.</p>
<p>More problematic was the crowds utter lack of respect for the fighters postfight. Poor Dong Hyun Kim was booed during his postfight interview like he was Professor Toru Takana cutting a heel promo on Mr. Wrestling 2 after winning the Georgia Heavyweight Title by throwing salt in his opponents eyes while the referee was distracted. Not quite the respect that a 4th degree judo black belt whod just won a very tough fight deserves. Kim&#8217;s treatment by the fans cant be written off as a reaction to a close split decision victory; Rashad Evans was booed after his victory over Liddell, and short of decapitating &#8216;The Iceman&#8217; there was no way his win could have been more decisive.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Bowling Green played Boise State tough on their home field this weekend&#8211;at least for one quarter. Things looked good for the host Falcons at the end of the first quarter, as they&#8217;d held the #6 ranked Broncos scoreless and were right in the thick of things in a scoreless game. It was all downhill from that point for Bowling Green, as Boise State exploded for 29 unanswered second quarter points. The Broncos would eventually win 49-14, improving to 4-0 on the season.</p>
<p>The Broncos easily covered as -16 road favorites. The 63 combined points went OVER the posted total of 51. Boise State needed four plays or less on their first six scoring drives, and amassed a season high 529 yards of total offense. Their defense also forced the Falcons into three costly turnovers.</p>
<p>Boise State coach Chris Petersen had insisted on more quick strike scoring drives. They most definitely delivered, and the coach commented to their performance after the contest:</p>
<p>&#8220;On offense, that&#8217;s always the name of the game. It makes it a lot easier when you don&#8217;t have those 15- and 17-play drives.&#8221;</p>
<p>Broncos quarterback Kellen Moore threw 17 completions in 21 pass attempts for a total of 247 yards and two touchdowns with no interceptions. 195 of his total yards came during the 2nd quarter onslaught, where he completed 8 consecutive passes during one stretch. After the game, Moore indicated that his team wasnt resting on their impressive season to date performance:</p>
<p>&#8220;There&#8217;s a lot of football to go and a lot of things to work on.</p>
<p>Coach Petersen concurred with his quarterbacks assessment:</p>
<p>&#8220;These guys are a fairly mature bunch and if not, we have a staff of mature coaches to keep them focused.</p>
<p>Bowling Green head coach Dave Clawson sounded somewhat in awe of the Broncos &#8216;quick strike&#8217; offense:</p>
<p>&#8220;That&#8217;s what they do. When they have 500 yards of offense, it will always be 10 to 12 plays where half their offense came from.&#8221;</p>
<p>The Broncos, who are enjoying their highest regular season ranking in school history, looked sharp all around on offense despite the absence of second leading rusher DJ Harper. Harper is likely out for the year after a knee injury.</p>
<p>Bowling Green will take a step down in class of opposition next weekend as they host the Ohio Bobcats. Theyll play on the road the next two weeks, traveling to Kent State and Ball State. Boise will return home for a game against FCS opponent UC Davis next Saturday. Theyll play on the road at Tulsa the following weekend, before enjoying a bye week. Theyll be back in action on October 25 as they make the long trip to play the University of Hawaii.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>New York Jets rookie quarterback Mark Sanchez tracked down NFL legend Joe Namath before the game looking for a pep talk and some pointers. What the NFL Hall of Famer told him had a very beneficial effect. Sanchez looked very decidedly not like a rookie as he threw for 272 yards and a touchdown against one interception. More importantly, the Jets easily beat the host Houston Texans 24-7.</p>
<p>NFL sports betting enthusiasts who took the Jets as +4 road underdogs cashed their tickets with the outright win. New York improved to 10-8 ATS as an underdog over the past three NFL seasons. The combined 31 points scored went UNDER the posted total of 44. The Jets have a slight UNDER bias over the past three years overall at 15-18, while they evened their total mark as an underdog at 9-9.</p>
<p>After the game, Sanchez recounted what Namath had told him in his ersatz pep talk:</p>
<p>&#8220;What a pep talk. That was Joe Namath, just taking all the credit from himself and throwing it back to me and just saying, &#8216;Good luck.&#8217; To hear that from a legend like that, it just kind of gives you the chills. It was something special to be a part of, an emotional start, an emotional little pep talk.&#8221;</p>
<p>For his part, Namath said he wasnt surprised to see Sanchez have such a solid NFL debut:</p>
<p>&#8220;No, I was hopeful and I&#8217;m satisfied more than I thought I&#8217;d be. His offensive line did a hell of a job, but he did a great job of finding time with his feet, just to move subtly &#8230; I don&#8217;t doubt even a little bit that he doesn&#8217;t have poise at this stage.&#8221;</p>
<p>The Jets defense also had a great afternoon. The run defense was particularly stifling, holding Steve Slaton to just 17 yards on the ground. Afterwards, Slaton couldnt believe what had just happened:</p>
<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s just insane. You work for six months leading up to this first game. You have all offseason to prepare for this game and then to come out and play like that is upsetting.&#8221;</p>
<p>Texans coach Gary Kubiak took the blame for his teams awful showing:</p>
<p>&#8220;The offensive football team gave us no chance and that starts with me. There&#8217;s nobody that can feel anything good coming out of this football game.&#8221;</p>
<p>Houston will start from scratch on Sunday as they travel to Nashville to face the Tennessee Titans. The Titans are a -6 home favorite with the total set at 40. The Texans will return home for games the following two weeks against the Jacksonville Jaguars and Oakland Raiders. The Jets will play their next two games at home, beginning this weekend against the New England Patriots. New York is +4 home underdog to the Pats, with the total set at 47. Theyll welcome the Tennessee Titans to the Meadowlands the following week.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Clothing tends to remind me of recipes. There are lots of them and sometimes what you look at as the finished product reveals so little of the ingredients that were used in the beginning. A Cortech motorcycle jacket has history that makes it a surprise recipe because it tastes great but you have no idea how much time goes into preparation!</p>
<p>This particular line of wear started originally in 2002 as a child of the Tour Master brand which itself was birthed in 1978 out of the Helmet House business. Tour Master is definitely a well known name in the motorcycle retail business specializing in riding gear for street motorcyclists.</p>
<p>Now a days, you won&#8217;t be able to look in any credible Motorcycle clothing shop without coming across the Tour Master and Cortech names because their following has grown over the years and they are more popular than ever with just cause. While not the only options in motorcycle garb and accessories, you certainly won&#8217;t go wrong with them because the quality and considerations taken when making their products seem to be on a consistency level you can depend on.</p>
<p>Whether you are looking into a purpose of a motorcycle jacket because you are actually riding a motorcycle and need protection or if you are planning to attend an event in style or you like to ride comfortable &#8211; you can meet your needs with this line of riding gear from Cortech.</p>
<p>Cortech invests more than finances in their designs including the Cortech Motorcycle Jacket which reflect the pride of craftsmanship. Both the quality of materials used as well as the innovative styles and technology made available to its customers are clearly visible. When you want a lot of bang for your buck, you should make sure Cortech products are a contender in the decision ring.</p>
<p>After looking at a Ladies LNX Jacket to find Kevlar protection in shoulder and elbow areas for well under the competition&#8217;s prices &#8211; it&#8217;s safe to say value has a home at Cortech. While sizing of the Kevlar could have been customized and it would have been great to see some back protection &#8211; that does not take away from this find at that value price.</p>
<p>Despite any drawbacks on the levels of Kevlar included on the lower priced models, the great thing is upgrading is always an option so if you feel the need for more, you can easily add on or upgrade your pieces &#8211; usually with little to no complications in the process.</p>
<p>As unique or standard as your tastes may run, there will be lots of choices for you as an experienced motorcycle rider or a novice. You won&#8217;t have to sacrifice style to stay in your budget, and safety won&#8217;t have to take a backseat in your life because it&#8217;s just too much money. Cortech does not let you down in these regard &#8211; as a matter of fact &#8211; they surprise you with hidden treasures! We are all too familiar with having to give up style for comfort in some cases even settling for something you are not interested in wearing, simply because it&#8217;s just out of reach but Cortech makes sure to include something for everyone.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s nice to know that whether you are looking at a Cortech Motorcycle Jacket for a man or a woman, you will find oodles of choices and features, including the multitasking ability of your jacket which depending on your choice, can take you on the bike, to work, a walk during lunch and an outing with friends in the evening hours all without changing!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A week after being named the New York Jets starting quarterback, Mark Sanchez rewarded his first year NFL coach with a victory. Rex Ryan got his first win as coach of the Jets as his team nipped the rival New York Giants 27-25. Both teams are now 1-2 in NFL preseason play.</p>
<p>NFL preseason betting enthusiasts who took the Giants as +3 point underdogs were rewarded with the outright victory. The Jets improved to 2-1 against the pointspread, while the Giants dropped to 1-2 against the money as they dropped their second straight ATS verdict. The combined 52 points went well OVER the posted total of 36.</p>
<p>Sanchez finished with 149 yards on 13 of 20 passing and a touchdown pass to former University of South Carolina standout Chansi Stuckey. After the game, he said things were different now that he was the starting QB:</p>
<p>&#8220;You get a little more confidence when you know your coach believes in you and has named you the starter. It was similar to that at SC. Once you&#8217;re the guy, you talk a little different, you walk a little different and you act a little different.&#8221;</p>
<p>Giants defender Mathias Kiwanuka thought he had a sack but Sanchez evaded him and another lineman to make the play. He had to be impressed with Sanchezs touchdown effort:</p>
<p>&#8220;I thought we had him. It was a great play. You have to give him credit for seeing down the field with two guys in his face.&#8221;</p>
<p>Sanchez remembered it thusly:</p>
<p>&#8220;It was one of those plays where you get hit throwing it and you don&#8217;t really see what&#8217;s going on. You kind of listen. I knew if it was a big roar, it was probably a big play by the Giants, maybe an interception and I&#8217;d have to get up quick. But I heard a quiet roar and I said: &#8216;Oh boy, I think he caught it.&#8217;&#8221;</p>
<p>Winning coach Ryan commended his young QBs effort:</p>
<p>&#8220;He was poised. He is what we thought he was.&#8221;</p>
<p>Giants QB Eli Manning finished with 91 yards on 9 of 21 passing with a touchdown and interception. He also had receiver Steve Smith drop a wide open pass that would have gone for a touchdown. Afterwards, he sympathized with his receiver:</p>
<p>&#8220;Sometimes it&#8217;s good to get those out of the way now. I know Steve feels bad about that. He hasn&#8217;t done that all training camp. I know he won&#8217;t drop it next time.&#8221;</p>
<p>The Giants finish up the NFL preseason slate with a trip to Foxboro, Massachusetts to take on the New England Patriots on Thursday night. The Jets wrap up their exhibition schedule by hosting the Philadelphia Eagles.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>After a month long free agency soap opera, both Lamar Odom and the Los Angeles Lakers got what they really wanted all along. The Lakers retained the services of their valuable sixth man, and Odom will return to the team after an intense recruiting pitch from the Miami Heat. On Friday, Odom officially signed his new contract with the NBA Champions thus insuring that the nucleus of the roster will remain intact.</p>
<p>Terms of the deal weren&#8217;t immediately released, but both player and team appeared relieved that things had worked out. In early July, negotiations broke down after some miscommunication between Odom&#8217;s agent and Lakers owner Dr. Jerry Buss. While Odom worked to mend fences&#8221;including several personal phone calls to Dr. Buss&#8221;his agent was receiving interest from Miami, Portland and Dallas. Miami, in particular, was extremely interest bringing out the big guns in the personage of Dwayne Wade and Pat Riley to make a recruiting pitch.</p>
<p>Ultimately, however, Odom couldnt come up with a compelling reason to leave his situation in Los Angeles. At the official signing ceremony, he hinted that a dynasty could be in the making:</p>
<p>&#8220;I guess basketball-wise, I feel complete. I want to feel it again. It&#8217;s kind of an overwhelming feeling. I get goose bumps when I think about it, and as long as I continue to play professional basketball, I want to always feel that. The way I feel during the summer, I always want to feel that. If we can win six, seven, eight, nine, 10 championships in a row, I want to experience that.&#8221;</p>
<p>While talk of 10 straight championships may be mere hyperbole, theres no reason the Lakers cant run off a repeat or better with their current lineup. In fact, with the teams signing of Ron Artest the lineup may be better than a year ago. Artest brings not only his infamous swagger and intensity, but an element of toughness and versatility that Ariza lacked. Such was Odoms commitment to the Lakers is that even during his free agency, he helped recruit Artest to sign with the team:</p>
<p>&#8220;I spoke to Ron two days before he signed, and I told him how important I think it is for him to come here. Because I know how hard he works, he needs to experience basketball at its best, at the highest level, and he needs to become a Laker. Two days after that, he signed.&#8221;</p>
<p>Lakers GM Mitch Kupchak was understandably elated at Odom&#8217;s return:</p>
<p>&#8220;Three or four months ago, I didn&#8217;t think it could be possible that we could basically bring this team back in whole. Lamar had a wonderful season that ended on the best possible note you could have, and Lamar had a lot of options. &#8230; Here it is, July 31, and we have brought back everybody that we wanted to bring back.&#8221;</p>
<p>Odom noted that Los Angeles was home to his family, and he never really wanted to play elsewhere:</p>
<p>&#8220;I didn&#8217;t want my kids to have to change schools &#8212; just the little things. I&#8217;m comfortable here. I&#8217;ve been here since I was&#8217; years old. I&#8217;m proud to be playing for what I think is the most popular brand in sports.</p>
