Former Chargers running game Lawrence Phillip will go to trial for attacking his girlfriend. Phillips must stand trial on eight felony charges for two alleged assaults.

What About Them Marlins?


The Florida Marlins are having an amazing season so far. The Marlins are 8-1 after sweeping the Atlanta Braves. At this moment the Marlins have the best record in the league. Marlins shortstop, Hanley Ramirez has two home runs and ten RBIs. Also starting pitcher, Josh Johnson has 0.57 ERA, fifteen strikeouts, and was named NL player of the week. I know that it is to early in the season to determine who's going to the playoffs but I really feel like they are contenders this year . This Marlins team seems similar to the 2003 Marlins that won the World Series. Do you think the Marlins have a chance to make it to the World Series?

Epic 5 Race


Early this week there was a race between the Audi R8, Mercedes-McLaren SLR, Ferrari 430, Lamborghini Gallardo, and Maserati Gran Turismo. In the beginning of the race the 430 and Gallardo were in front followed by the SLR, R8, and the Gran Turismo. Then the SLR started to catch up to the 430 and Gallardo. Toward the end the SLR reached first and stayed at first until the end of the race. Coming in second was the Gallardo, then the 430, then the R8 and coming in dead last was Gran Turismo. Which is your favorite car out of these five cars?

Reds Are Interested Sheffield


The Cincinnati Reds are interested in the 40 year old free agent Gary Sheffield, but only if he accepts limited role. Manager Dusty Baker said that Sheffield could pinch hit and fill in at first base or in the outfield for Cincinnati. Any team can sign Sheffield for the 400,000 minimum, with Detroit paying his $14 million salary. Rufus Williams, Gary Sheffield's agent, would not say exactly how many clubs are interested in Sheffield, but he did say "several team." Sheffield is also only one shy of becoming the 25th player in Major League history to have 500 home runs. In the two seasons with the Tigers, Sheffield batted .247 and averaging 22 home runs and 66RBIs. Do the Cincinnati Reds really need Gary Sheffield?

No Bench for A.I


Allen Iverson said that he would rather retire than be a full-time reserve. Iverson made it clear that he will not return to the Pistons next season if he is a bench player. Iverson has averaged 17.4 points in 54 games with the Pistons. He would not talk about his playing time Wednesday after scoring four points on one of eight shooting. Iverson also sat on the Pistons bench with his jersey off until he got back into the game. Do you believe that there is any future for Allen Iverson and the Pistons?
