Cleveland 74 – Houston 93: LeBron finished the first game of his career without an assist. Shane Battier and Ron Artest shutdown the Cavaliers’ biggest threat the whole night, holding James to just 21 points on 7 of 21 shooting. Big Z was the best Cav on the floor, scoring 11 points and [...] “One day after a ceremonious return to golf, Tiger Woods was on his way home. Tim Clark of South Africa played 16 holes without a bogey and pulled ahead for good on the back nine Thursday, knocking Woods out of the Accenture Match Play Championship with a 4-and-2 victory.” (ESPN) We’ve got just two games in the NBA tonight, but they are both pretty interesting. The early game pits LeBron James up against Ron Artest, which should be a fantastic match-up to watch. The late game will feature Kobe Bryant and Shaquille O’Neal facing off against each other when the Suns battle the [...] “Imprisoned Atlanta Falcons QB Michael Vick has been approved for release to home confinement and could be released to his Virginia home as early as May 21.” And his next team will be?

Tejada, who [...] Yesterday marked the begginging of the 2009 MLB season. Even though it is just spring training, baseball is baseball and I am excited to have it back. Alex Rodriguez’s home run drew the most attention yesterday, especially since the fans cheered the blast instead of unleashing a massive “BOOOOOO!” on him. Other headlines: Kerry [...] “Is this just a spring-training sore back or the start of another Kerry Wood injury scenario? Manager Eric Wedge revealed Wednesday after the Indians’ 10-7 loss to the Giants in their Cactus League opener at Goodyear Ballpark that Wood hasn’t thrown since last weekend because of a sore back.

Linebacker is the safest player to pick in the upcoming NFL Draft and, if it weren’t for Michael Crabtree, the best player in the Draft. The Wake Forest product was simply amazing at this year’s NFL Combine, wowing scouts with his quick feet and massive upper body. Curry comes out of college as a hard hitting linebacker measured at 6-foot-2-inches and 254lbs. Aaron became a national name for scouts in 2007 and is headed to the pros with a lot of hardware.
