The NFL announced this year's list of free Hawaiian vacation recipients, and there are only three Steelers among them: LB James Harrison and S Troy Polamalu are starters, joined by reserve LB James Farrior.Several Steeler teammates will probably be asked when their NFL brethren beg out of the game in vintage Tom Brady fashion, so that number will likely increase. There weren't many surprises omiss
The San Diego Chargers have failed to find a win in three straight games, dropping their record to 4-8. For a team bent on bettering last season's AFC Championship Game appearance, the hope for a repeat seems dim. As a result, changes are expected for this team of underachievers.
There were quite a few happenings today with the media via media reports -- they're aren't huge moves; nevertheless, we've got activity going on.The Orioles added five guys to the 40-man roster -- pitche Brad Bergesen, right-handed pitcher David Hernandez, right-handed pitcher Chorye Spoone, left-handed pitcher Wilfredo Perez and outfielder Nolan Reimold to the 40-man roster -- as well as signed c
The Golden State Warriors are systematically paring down their roster to their preferred number of 15; currently, they are at 16 as they have waived guard Dan Dickau from their roster, according to the San Francisco Chronicle. The elimination of Dickau will probably clear a path for local product DeMarcus Nelson to make the team. [...]

The San Diego Chargers placed linebacker Shawne Merriman (knee) on the Reserve-Injured list and elevated linebacker Antwan Applewhite from the practice squad.
To celebrate the start of another NFL season, we're going to play a little game, inspired by my viewing of every NFL roster multiple times due to recent fantasy football drafts and my brother and I asking each other, "Does _____ still play?" about eight times a day.Here's how it goes: I name the NFL player (or coach), and you guess whether they're on an NFL roster/coaching staff or not.

The San Francisco 49ers have trimmed down their roster to get to the 53 man limit. Transactions could still happen however so even though a player made the cut, they could see themselves being cut or moved to the practice squad if management picks up another player via the waiver wire.

The Chargers placed TE Scott Chandler on Reserve-Injured (toe) and released the 20 players from their active roster to reach the NFLs mandatory limit of 53 players.

According to George King, because of the overworked bullpen the Yankees may make a roster move: Because Jonathan Albaladejo threw three innings and 48 pitches last night, it's likely the Yankees will recall a reliever from Triple-A for tonight's game. Among the candidates are Jose Veras, Darrell Rasner and Scott Patterson.My suggestion would be to bring up the guy who should have been here all along, and that's Scott Patterson. Patterson's numbers in Scranton-Wilkes Barre haven't been great (5.2 IP, 4 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 3 BB, 4 SO, 3.18 ERA), but the two runs he's given up, and two of the three walks, all came in one game against Louisville last week.
Mike Pelfrey won the 5th starter spot; Brady Clark, Raul Casanova, Angel Pagan and Joe Smith are in; Fernando Tatis and Brian Flores were sent to New Orleans, Moises Alou, El Duque and Ramon Castro will start the season on the DL.
...The New York Mets today announced the following roster moves on Sunday to ready their roster for Opening Day. The Mets selected the contracts of catcher Raul Casanova and outfielder Brady Clark and added them to the 25-man roster. Clark will change his uniform to No. 44. He had worn No. 93 this spring. Catcher Ramon Castro was placed on the 15-day disabled list, retroactive to March 21, due to a right hamstring injury. Right-handed pitcher Duaner Sanchez was placed on the 15-day disabled list, retroactive to March 27, while he continues recovering from right shoulder surgery. Sanchez underwent shoulder surgery on April 10, 2007 at New York's Hospital for Special Surgery. Mets Medical Director Dr. David Altchek inserted a screw in the coracoid, a bone in front of Sanchez's right should
The Yankees have their opening day roster:Edwar Ramirez, Jose Veras, Darrell Rasner and Scott Patterson, along with Kei Igawa and Nick Green all go to Sranton.Andy Pettitte (back), Sean Henn (shoulder tendinitis) and Jeff Karstens (groin) are put on the 15-day disabled list.The bullpen spots go to Brian Bruney, Ross Ohlendorf, Billy Traber and Jonathan Albaladejo.Pettitte is scheduled to make a start in a minor league contest in Tampa Sunday and will be re-evaluated by team doctors after his outing.Patterson was not pleased at not making the cut. After leaving Girardi's office he kicked a chair on the way to his locker. La Troy Hawkins and Joba Chamberlain talked with Patterson, who smiled at something they said.Patterson only allowed one hit and no runs in 7 2/3 innings this spring. "I

The Mets announced three roster moves on Friday as the team wrapped up Grapefruit League action against the Orioles, beginning with second baseman Ruben Gotay, who was claimed by the Braves. New York also optioned second baseman Anderson Hernandez to Triple-A New Orleans and returned right-hander Steven Register, a Rule 5 Draft pick, back to the Rockies....Of course if Ruben Gotay had to be claimed, it had to be by someone within the division. To make matters worse, it had to be the Braves. I think that Gotay's shortcomings outweigh his great bat from the left side. His defense, mental errors and inability to be consistent against lefties is ultimately what sealed his demise. I wish Ruben the best of luck with the Braves, just not when they're playing the Mets.
...This comes from Adam Rubin at the Daily News: I’m going to hedge in a few places because injuries have left things slightly unresolved, but here’s what I think is a pretty good stab at what the Mets’ Opening Day roster will look like. Surfing the Mets now has it on very good authority that it’ll be a five-man rotation, whether Orlando Hernandez is ready or not, since Pedro Martinez will perform optimally with extra rest in the team’s opinion. That leaves room for five bench players, plus a substitute for Moises Alou, who will land on the DL until May following hernia surgery. Lineup:Jose Reyes, ssLuis Castillo, 2bDavid Wright, 3bCarlos Beltran, cfCarlos Delgado, 1bAngel Pagan, lfRyan Church, rfBrian Schneider, c Bench:Marlon AnderonRaul Casanova … Assumi
Kat O'Brien is reporting that Morgan Ensberg has been added to the Yankees 40-man roster and will make $1.75 million this season. Ensberg has no minor league option available, so she feels that this means Ensberg is a "slam dunk to make the team," I agree. So it looks like the bench will be Betemit, Molina, Duncan and Ensberg. (I still think Gardner should make the team)And here's good news for any Paul O'Neill fans:Ensberg plans to ask to change from No. 21 because he doesn't think he should take Paul O'Neill's number. He said he didn't ask before because he thought it would be presumptuous to ask for a different number if he wasn't even on the roster. He plans to make Wilson Betemit an offer for No. 14, which was his number in Houston.“I can’t wear Paul O’Neill’s number,” Ensb
The I’s have it.That is injuries and ineffectiveness, the two I’s that have been plaguing the Mets during Spring Training.The first injured man that needs a replacement on the roster is Moises Alou. Angel Pagan has been hot at the plate, so a guy who was signed to play and wait in AAA will now be a part of the major league roster.Ruben Gotay seemingly had a job as a backup middle infielder and pinch hitter, but he came up lame early on this spring. Jose Valentin was poised to take that job after making an early comeback from offseason surgery, but a pinched nerve has him “behind the eight ball” according to Manager Willie Randolph (as reported on MLB.com).Who will take that spot? Some may look to young Argenis Reyes who is hitting .448 this spring, but has never played above AA and

Peter Abraham reports that left-handed reliever Billy Traber has been added to the Yankees 40-man roster. To make room the Yankees placed pitcher Andrew Brackman, who is recovering from TJ surgery, on the 60-day DL.Traber has been the most impressive lefty this spring and unless the Yankees trade for Damaso Marte he will probably make the 25-man roster to start the year. This spring Traber has pitched in 5 games and is 1-0, with a save, he hasn't given up a run (although he did allow three inherited runners to score the other day), and has only allowed 3 hits while walking none and striking out 5.
The Yankees will play the first three games of the season with a 23-man roster, reports Peter Abraham. “It is what it is and you move on,” Girardi said. “We’ll still start the season with who we were going to start the season with. There’s still competition, there’s still two weeks of spring training. … Obviously we’re hurt missing two guys for three games. You got to deal with that.”Girardi said he had no idea why Cabrera was suspended. “I don’t know (what he did),” he said.Is it just me, or would you all love to see the video of Cabrera punching Longoria?
For all of the games that feature a lot of offense and very little defense, a defensive battle ia a refreshing change of pace. With an injury to Philadelphia 76ers guard Willie Green, some tweaking of their lineup was necessary as Reggie Evans replaced normal starter Rodney Carney to bring a bigger Sixers lineup into [...]
Not very exciting, but the Eagles have signed offensive tackle Pat McCoy to the active roster, from the practice squad. To make room they released Safety Marcus Paschal. If Paschal clears waivers, they will re-sign him to the practice squad.

As suspected, the Cubs contingent left the Winter Meetings this week with more questions deferred than answered. What's the deal with Fukudome? Are we REALLY going to pay that much for an aging Japanese outfielder who has never faced a major league pitch? Is Ronny Cedeno gone yet? Are we going to get another starting pitcher? Is Ronny Cedeno gone yet?
You, darling readers, have questions. And I have answers. Well, not necessarily answers, but at least speculation and conjecture. Those are KINDS of answers. And I'm not providing links because I'm too lazy. Away we go. First up, as noted by Hobo in carl's headline diary, the Cubs, Pads, and White Sox (hahahahahahahahah!) appear to be the main contenders for Fukudome. Bear in mind, however, that Fukudome hasn't even declared that he's going to play in MLB next season. The Royals, who had earlier been listed with the Cubs as the two teams Fukudome was chos

Today the New York Yankees removed veteran pitcher Roger Clemens from their playoff roster and replaced him with left-handed reliever Ron Villone. So now Clemens is ineligible for the AL championship series if the Yankees come back and beat the Cleveland Indians.From Yahoo! News:Clemens re-injured a hamstring Sunday and left in the third inning of New York's 8-4 win over the Cleveland Indians in Game 3. He met with manager Joe Torre and general manager Brian Cashman after the game."Normally, he'd fight," Cashman said. "But he didn't fight this one. He knows his body and he knows that he did enough damage in there that he wouldn't be ready."
Kevin Hart is in, Will Ohman, Steve Trachsel, Sean Marshall, Craig Monroe, and Sam Fuld (sob!) are out. Soto is the catcher for Game 1.

I am now an accredited member of the Chicago Film Critics Association (CFCA), which is a tax-exempt, not-for-profit organization that maintains professional, charitable and educational goals.The association is overseen by a seven-person board of directors. Held annually, its prestigious Chicago Film Critics Awards honor outstanding film works, performances and individuals.
Looking over the final roster, here are some random thoughts:Best units:1. Linebackers--Their youth could hurt at first, but they are fast with huge potential. Could develop into the one of the best LB corps in the league down the road.2. Tight ends--KWII appears healthy, Heiden is always dependable, Dinkins provides depth.Shakiest units:1. Defensive line--The starting nose tackle is a year older and the guy being groomed as his replacement is unproven and starting at left end due to injury. Free agency and the draft changed a lot of faces, but can any of them play? Run defense has to be a huge concern.2. Defensive backs--The talent is there if it is healthy, but that has been a big "if" the past two seasons. The Browns kept 10 DBs, 7 of them CBs for just this reason.3. Running backs--Jamal Lewis has looked good, but can he carry the load all season, and if he gets hurt, can either of the remaining guys be a starter week in and week out?4. Wide receivers--Braylon Edwards is t

The New York Jets announced that they have signed cornerback Manny Collins out of Rutgers and re-signed offensive lineman Nick Smith. The Jets also released offensive tackle Ed Blanton as well as punter Jeremy Kapinos.
Smith signed on with the Jets as an undrafted free agent and then was released by the team on May 16th and has been brought back with the team.
Collins was signed by the Jets for training camp depth with Andre Dyson out with an injury and with first-round pick Darrelle Revis still unsigned. Collins went to college locally out of Rutgers University, played in three games last season including the season opener where he intercepted North Carolina QB Joe Dailey twice.
The New York Jets have announced that they have placed WR Tim Dwight and LB Matt Chatham on the Physically Unable to Perform list.
The Jets also waived guard Dominic Moran and safety Leonard Peters and have signed center Joseph Villani.
Here is Villani’s biography from CSTV.com.

This plus the loss of Chris Benoit and the negative media attention over the incident has been a huge strain on the WWE.So why hasn't TNA got the WWE in a submission hold they are struggling to escape?All the focus appears to have been on the WWE and what they are going to do now but for me this is the perfect opportunity for TNA to step up and make it's mark with the wrestling masses, so why hasn't it.TNA management may appear happy with the current fortunes of the company but behind the scenes they must be worried that as the number two promotion in America they have failed to make any real impact on the WWE during their little crisis.TNA has had no m

Major League Baseball announced the rosters Sunday for the National League, and American League teams for the upcoming All-Star game held Tuesday July 10, at AT&T Park in San Francisco. The starters of course are picked by MLB fans and the reserves are picked by their peers, and the respective squad managers. Managing the N.L. last year's World Series Champion Tony LaRussa, of the Cardinals. The man in the opposing dugout will be last year's A.L. Champs, Detroit Tigers skipper Jim Leyland. The game now carries more significance than a decade ago, because which ever League wins the game will have home field advantage in the World Series. The American League has won the All-Star game since that edict went into place and subsequently, have had home field in all those Fall Classics. Here are both rosters, starters, bench players and pitchers, with the American League listed first.AMERICAN LEAGUECatcher: Ivan Rodriguez DetroitFirst Base: David Ortiz BostonSecond Base: Placido Polanco

IRVING, Texas (AP) — Terrell Owens will get his $3 million roster bonus from the Dallas Cowboys even though, like several other starters, he hasn’t been practicing with the team.
Owens will get that bonus, plus a $5 million salary for the 2007 season, since he was still on the roster Friday, when he was again absent from voluntary organized team activities.
Cowboys owner Jerry Jones had repeatedly said since the end of last season that Owens, who had 85 catches for 1,180 more…

The Sun-Sentinel is reporting that veteran receiver Marty Booker is on the trading block, showing that Miami still might not be done overhauling their roster. Like I said before, this team was going nowhere the past couple of seasons and it was time to start over and that is exactly what coach Cameron and co. are doing.If Booker indeed is traded, I hope that they can get something like a 5th round pick for him and then use that to get the Trent Green trade done. There is still no indication that Daunte Culpepper will get back anywhere close to his old self, and some experts are thinking that Miami will now look to the draft for their possible "franchise quarterback".And staying on the topic of franchise quarterbacks, Armando Salguero had an interesting post on his blog yesterday. I don't always agree with his stuff, but this one got me thinking.Salguero writes that ESPN, after getting word from various sources, is thinking that the Raiders will draft Calvin Johnson. They claim that th

Mankato has signed IF Jason Christian and OF Alan Oaks from the University of Michigan. Alan was selected in the 50th round by the Detroit Tigers in the 2006 Major League first year player draft. Jason is hitting .361 with 2 HR and 8 steals this spring. Jason also earned Big Ten Player-of-the-Week honors for play in Tony Gwynn Classic in San Diego (Mar. 9-11).The Moondogs have also added RHP Garett Claypool from UCLA.

To make room for Steve Coyler on the 40 man, the Braves moved Mike Hampton from the 15 day disabled list to the 60 day. Not that this comes as a surprise.

The 2006 Boston Red Sox look to have set their 25-man roster as pitchers Kyle Snyder and Javy Lopez have won the last two roster spots. Pitchers Craig Hansen, Manny Delcarmen, and Bryan Corey will start the 2006 season in Triple-A with the Pawtucket Red Sox. The Red Sox feel they may have rushed Hansen last year so this year they want him to develop in Triple-A. With Delcarmen they felt he needed to go to Triple-A so he can get some playing time as the Red Sox look to have a full bullpen. The position bench/backup players look to be: Wily Mo Pena, Doug Mirabelli, Alex Cora, and Eric Hinske.
