NFL and Other Sports News
It was an interesting week in the NFL. As we gear up for the Draft (and it is a mere eight weeks away), some interesting moves have been made. First, some famous players were released. Seattle released Jerry Rice and the Patriots released CB Ty Law. Drew Bledsoe has found a home with the Dallas Cowboys re-uniting him with the coach who brought him to his last Superbowl. In other news, Randy Moss was traded to Oakland in exchange for LB Napolean Harris and a draft pick. It also appears that WR Mushin Mohammed has found a home in Chicago. Whether they have anyone to throw to him is another question.

In Jets news, the Jets are purportedly ready to deal Santana Moss to Washington for former Jet and Chad Pennington favorite Laveranues Coles in a straight up trade. Base10 approves. Although Moss is a speed merchant, the combination of big receivers Coles and McCareins is enticing. Especially considering that Pennington doesn't have a particularly strong arm. I do wonder how this will effect the Jets on special teams.

Meanwhile at the combing, Maurice Clarett did not have such a great workout. His time in the forty does not bode well for his prospects of going in the first or second round.

In other sports news, Tiger Woods has finally gotten a weekend off. Woods failed to make the cut at the Accenture Match play championship. Hey, match play is tough and Tiger is not alone. Phil Mickelson and Vijay Singh were also eliminated.

Today's sports action features the final round of the Accenture (see above). In NASCAR, the Auto Club 500 in California starts at 1PM. Click here for a preview. And finally, in NCAA Hoops, No. 4 Oklahoma St. faces No. 8 Kansas.
