The badnews for them is that McLaren managed to snatch second place in a track which isgenerally more suited to the scarlet cars. All Ferrari can do is hope they cando the same in the next two races where all odds are that McLaren would have theupper hand. I think the only clear winner from this Grand Prix was Felipe Massa. Team Ferrari certainly came into Istanbul hoping for aone-two, and bar the creativity of McLaren, would have certainly had it. As far as Raikkonen is concerned, I'm surewe was aware Massa had an advantage coming to this track, but would haveprobably wanted to finish second. However, he does retain quite a healthychampionship lead – a lead which he would like to keep heading into Monaco (oneof his favourite tracks).
I can think back to when I was younger, and my favorite (and most clear) memory is driving down the road in my dad’s old pickup truck listening to Duke of Earl, as music engrains itself into my memory, offering me a lifetime of happiness.Likewise, I can remember sitting on his lap when I was about the same age, asking all sorts of questions about baseball and hockey perhaps not the smartest questions, but dad sat through it all and answered them, again offering me an indelible memory.Music and sport have become so commercialized, mainstream, overdone, or whatever term you’d like to use, that we often overlook what they offer us as people. Whether or not that basket goes in, the kick goes wide, or the puck crosses the line though, we’ll hold on to those memories because despite how silly the concept seems from afar, these are the memories that will last.Sport may not transcend life (although with some people it does), but there’s a switch flipped somewhere in the mind of human beings at important moments that helps us hold on to the memories so we remember what happens, and more importantly, who we’re with..

As the Yankees won their seventh straight victory today, Joba Chamberlain had what may have been his best performance as a starting pitcher.
However, he was pulled from the game with two outs in the sixth inning in a 1-1 tie.Joe Girardi was quoted as saying, “Your heart wants to do it, but your head tells you that you need to make a change.” Chamberlain had just struck out the last two batters he faced He showed no signs of tiring. It is ridiculous that the Yankees are treating Chamberlain with kid gloves.He is 22 years old, and is probably the strongest pitcher on the Yankees staff He was a starter in the minors. It would be more understandable if he was groomed as a reliever and is making his first starts in the majors This is not the case.The Yankees are being too protective. Joe Girardi needs to give Chamberlain the opportunity to pitch seven innings in a game (if he is pitching well). Although it isprevalent in all of baseball, the Yankees in particular continue to baby all pitchers.Baseball has created these unwritten rules that pitchers cannot throw more than 100 pitches in a game. In 1983, Ron Guidry had 21 complete games for the Yankees. In 2008, the team will be lucky if they have three complete games on the whole pitching staff.Ron Guidry pitched 15 years in the majors and never had any arm trouble. Joba Chamberlain is the latest example of a young pitcher who cannot show his full talent By the way, the Yankees won today 2-1.
They scored their second run in the bottom of the sixth.If Chamberlain had been allowed to finish the sixth inning, he would have been credited with a win Another no-decision for Joba It will continue as long as he has a leash on.. The USA Men’s Basketball Olympic rosters come out on Monday. Everyone should be excited! Even with the 2007 USA team playing very well, it is unlikely that everyone on that team will be called back for the 2008 Olympic team. Chauncey Billups already dropped out, meaning that we know that there’s going to be at least one person different on the team. I can’t help but think of who might be added on. Guaranteed players to make the team include: Kobe Bryant, Carmelo Anthony, Lebron James, Jason Kidd, and probably Dwight Howard, Amare Stoudemire, and Chris Paul. That leaves us with five players fighting for spots. Candidates include: Brad Miller, Chris Bosh, Tayshaun Prince, Adam Morrison, Luke Ridnour, Antawn Jamison, Dwyane Wade, JJ Redick, Shawn Marion, Elton Brand, Lamar Odom, Shane Battier, Paul Pierce, Michael Redd, Tyson Chandler, Joe Johnson, Mike Miller, Bruce Bowen, Deron Williams, and Gilbert Arenas. Let’s just pretend that Chris Bosh, Paul Pierce, Shane Battier, and Deron Williams make it. That leaves one lucky soul for the last remaining spot.Now, let’s compare this team so far with the legendary 1992 Dream Team. Michael Jordan = Kobe BryantKarl Malone = Carmelo AnthonyClyde Drexler = Lebron JamesMagic Johnson = Jason KiddDavid Robinson = Dwight HowardCharles Barkley = Amare StoudemireScottie Pippen = Chris PaulPatrick Ewing = Chris BoshJohn Stockton = Deron WilliamsLarry Bird = Paul PierceChris Mullin = Shane BattierChristian Laettner = ???????? Now who should be compared to lucky Laettner? From that list of candidates, only one name seems to stands out.
Adam Morrison. Now, let me explain before you close this article A team needs its superstars and its role players. I know that Team USA is trying to find role players such as Mike Miller, Michael Redd, and Tyson Chandler from the 2007 team. But, seriously, those aren’t your typical “role players.” Each of them and almost everyone else on the candidate’s list are all stars in each of their NBA teams Well, everyone but Luke Ridnour and JJ Redick. I didn’t pick Ridnour to be on this team because the team already has three superstar point guards in Kidd, Paul, and Williams. And, I also didn’t pick Redick because he…well…he just sucks. Now, if the USA team wants to return to its glory days of 1992, they should put on a player like Adam Morrison. Put a real role player on the team. An all star might say he will take a role position, but we all know inside he thinks he’s the best Sometimes too much talent might backfire.
Just look at the 2000-2006 Olympic teams. For those who didn’t read the paragraph above, let me explain to you using simple math: 2= IIpeanut butter = jellycrocodile = alligatorme = amazing Christian Laettner = Adam Morrison For the final roster spot on team USA, Mike Krzyzewski should choose Adam Morrison if they really want to win gold at the 2008 Beijing Olympics. There are two reasons that I can think of that Krzyzewski would not choose Morrison For one, Morrison is coming off a horrible knee injury. And, secondly, Morrison plays for the Charlotte Bobcats and they pretty much breed of UNC players. But, I can guarantee you that if Morrison was put on the 2008 Olympic team, the USA would definitely win gold. The only thing standing in their way is my favorite team, China National team.. I know it’s June and the closest thing to football we have to look forward to is the OTAs and training camps…but…it is never to early to look at how the draft and free agency has affected your favorite team, and take a look at who will make the playoffs come year’s endIn part 2 of my column, here is who I think will make the playoffs in each of the divisions in the NFC, along with the wild cards.

Overall Unit Grade: 8/10Expectations: I truly believe McKelvin is going to improve significantly in his second year as he assumes a full time starting role alongside McGee and that is reason enough to give this unit a very high overall grade. He is now batting .304 on the season with three home runs, 32 RBI, 32 runs, and seven stolen bases Today, Aybar faces Brett Anderson and the Athletics. Frank Gore San Francisco 49ersGore has put together two straight “down years” of 1,000-yards rushing, and arguably so, simply because of his remarkable talent.The 49ers are once again determined to run the ball, and if the offense around him can develop some consistency, he could get back to his 2006 numbers.Gore is too talented to put up mediocre stats for three straight seasons.6. An additional year to develop would’ve helped tremendously, but I can’t blame him for chasing the dollar signs.Mullens has great athleticism for a seven-footer (a white boy at that), and could potentially be a superstar. That season, the Falcons’ offense was led by TJ Duckett and Warrick Dunn, and Vick was used mostly on play action roll outs and designed runs.The Vikings already have one of the better running backs in the league in Adrian Peterson and are the proud owners of a tight end, Visanthe Visancoe, in the mold of Vick’s former favorite target, Alge Crumpler.Assuming Favre doesn’t decide to return again, and arguably even if he does, Vick would be the most talented quarterback on the roster.
Although I rooted for him, I just never took a great liking to him. Maybe it was because he replaced Kevin Greene. Will he? Won’t he? Favre’s annual retirement debate has become the nation’s new pastime (sorry Baseball fans) And well frankly, I’m sick of it. Opponents batting average against the Tigers from .274 in 2008 to .249 this season. It’s important for perspective purposes to remember that today’s NFL teams rely on dual running backs to carry the load.Lets go back to his rookie season in 2005 where he rushed for 907 yards (4.4 YPC) while sharing carries with Ricky.

The loss of territories where Serbs have lived for generations and the expulsion of 200,000 refugees are ignored. Surely Serbs must know exactly what they have lost? In reality the official media have been reticent. The Bosnia deal reached in New York last week is proclaimed a triumph for the policies of President Slobodan Milosevic. Pink-striped amendments have been drawn on to the map, marking areas that Croats and Bosnian-government forces have seized Serbs recently. Suddenly there is little reason for Serbs to rejoice.It seems odd that people gather to study the map so intently. Given what has happened in the past four years, much of the map is printed in yellow.
There is just a forlorn little strip of green down the middle, for the “territories of Muslim-Croat Federation”.But then came the humiliation. Now, the map is a bitter memorial to defeat.It was intended to show the extent of Serb conquests in recent years Yellow shows “territory under the control of Serb forces”. STEVE CRAWSHAW
Belgrade
An indignant and fascinated little crowd gathers at the bottom of Terazije Street, in the heart of Belgrade. The source of interest: a new map, which was originally published with triumphal intentions “Thank God I’m a Serb,” says the proud inscription. Long enough, he said, for the Bosnian government to “stabilize the situation to the point where we can pull out the PIF and hope that it will hold”..
He indicated that Washington would act to strengthen the Bosnian army, to create “a reasonable correlation of forces” before the PIF pulled out.To allay Congressional fears of being sucked into a military quagmire, Mr Perry said the US would put a 9- to 12-month time limit on its troops’ stay in Bosnia. “One division or more” would be American.The operation will include non-Nato contingents from central European countries, and perhaps from Islamic nations, although Mr Perry ruled out an “all-Islamic” division to help the Bosnian Muslim government police the agreement. But the force would have to be large enough to “discourage and if necessary intimidate” any opposition. A single commander would direct the entire operation, and “no way” could there be parallel Nato and Russian commands, he said.
Noting that Moscow was unwilling to put a Russian division under Nato command, he suggested Russia could help with “non peace-enforcement operations,” such as engineering, signals or helping the resettlement of refugees.Under a schedule which ministers will review during informal sessions in the old colonial town of Williamsburg on Thursday, the PIF will be given an official go-ahead later this month.Its exact size would depend on the nature of any deal brokered by the US envoy Richard Holbrooke. Mr Perry said one-third or more of the force – at least 20,000 troops – could be American. Britain has previously indicated that it could provide up to 15,000.
At a lunch here with mainly European reporters, ahead of this week’s Nato defence ministers meeting in Virginia, Mr Perry predicted that Congress would overcome its considerable doubts and approve the participation of US ground troops in Nato’s Peace Implementation Force (PIF), the most controversial deployment of American forces abroad since the Gulf war.Emphasising that unity of command was essential for a “possibly difficult and risky mission,” Mr Perry ruled out the notion floated by Moscow of a separate Russian force.
