The French World Cup squad refused to train on Sunday to protest against striker Nicolas Anelka being sent home following a dressing-room bust-up with Domenech.The players returned to training on Monday but their campaign has been dogged by rumours of disharmony, while there have been suggestions Zidane was trying to influence team selection.The 38-year-old, who helped France win the 1998 World Cup, retired after being sent off in the 2006 final against Italy.And he refutes the allegations he still has influence over the players, claiming he has not undermined Domenech now or while playing under him during their surprise run in 2006.

The right-hander did a good job hitting lefthanders with Charlotte. He was hitting .364 with six homers and 11 RBIs against southpaws in 55 at-bats. Too bad there is only one lefty on the schedule this week.Viciedo also will be given every opportunity to play -- at least for now. Mark Teahen finger is on the DL, and Omar Vizquel is more of a defensive situational player. Manger Ozzie Guillen isnt afraid to test prospects either.Perhaps those are the reasons I didnt make a waiver move in any of my leagues until late Saturday night last week. Not even in the daily transaction league where I lead with 67 obsessive-compulsive adds.Heres the good-for-me part the strategy worked All of my teams either held their standing or made slight gains Does this mean its time to scrap Pickup Lines? No pickups means no advice required, right?.

Domenech was already set to step down after the tournament and Zidane is backing his successor to fix the in-fighting amongst the squad.I am against the fact that Les Bleus do not train - but Im not inside the group, he added. Thats why its better for me to be quiet.Carlos Queiroz felt Portugal needed a big win against North Korea and now wants his team to secure a place in the last 16 of the World Cup.Portugal built on a lacklustre 0-0 draw with the Ivory Coast in their opening game in Group G by crushing North Korea 7-0 in Cape Town on Monday.

ESPN has taken over selling all marketing and advertising inventory around the BCS game under its four-year, $495 million deal to carry BCS games through January 2014. ESPN has been in the market for four months selling a new package for the four BCS games.In the new package, the title sponsorship is billed as a seasonlong college football package, but Citi complained that it was weighed down with more BCS ad inventory than it wanted.Meanwhile, sources said AT&T, the first presenting sponsor of the Rose Bowl 11 years ago, is looking at the package.ESPNs packages for BCS games have generally been shy of $20 million a year — a price that is around 33 percent higher than Foxs rate last year though, unlike ESPN, Fox didnt seek full-season commitments.

So, its not going out on a limb to suspect that the United States-Algeria match on Wednesday will, again, break every viewing record there is to be broken. The media, through this controversy, gets an us against the world story line, and its finally not about whether or not soccer is boring.As another Guardian report explained, after telling the media that he and a group of players were going to speak up in their film session to express displeasure with Capellos style and decision making, a member of the staff convinced Terry not to say anything. Nor, per the report, did any other player. Its never good when its easier to talk to the media about your coach than it is to actually talk to your coach. The media loves it though.That drama, of course, pales in comparison to the situation in Frances camp where players have been sent home for insubordination and now team staffers have quit after further confrontation with players.Johnny Miller called at least three shots the shot of his life in a 15-minute span Fine, a putt to get even on the last hole of a major for French journeyman Gregory Havret most likely is the putt of his life, but some of the gravitas of that statement is taken away when Miller had just said that about a putt for Graeme McDowell the hole before Then, perhaps most egregiously, he suggested a few minutes earlier that Ernie Els — three-time major champion Ernie Els — would have to hit the shot of his life with his second on 18 to make eagle to hope for a playoff Hed have to hit a good shot, yes, but the shot of his life seemed a wee-bit oversold.

John was speaking about those two players. John wasnt saying that no-one else in the squad can do that, he was talking specifically about those players.I dont think players are that sensitive, he added. I wasnt knocking Johns door down saying Do you think I cant unlock a defence? I didnt take any offence.And Lampard feels the media have a responsibility to accurately report events inside the camp after being portrayed as part of a rebel movement alongside a number of other senior players having shared a drink and discussion on the miserable Algeria display with his team-mates.If the press want people to come and speak honestly, you have to report it honestly as well, he said.

Hed have to hit a good shot, yes, but the shot of his life seemed a wee-bit oversold.Is that more, or less, of a hard sell than Dan Hicks suggesting that Havrets putt on 18 to put him in a tie for the title with McDowell sitting in the fairway a putt Havret missed, by the way, would be the biggest moment, certainly, in Frances golfing history … and sporting history, itd be right up there.

John Terrys attempts to highlight growing discontent within the England squad at a clear-the-air meeting on Sunday night appear to have been blocked by coach Fabio Capello.Although there has been no official statement on the discussion Terry was expecting to have in a pre-planned team gathering, widespread reports have emerged suggesting Capello ruled out the idea of an open discussion to air grievances.It is believed senior figures within the management team and squad persuaded Terry the idea of discussing the teams feelings would not go down well with Capello.Terry revealed in Sundays candid press conference that a group of senior England players - Wayne Rooney, Steven Gerrard, Frank Lampard, David James, Jamie Carragher, Glen Johnson, Aaron Lennon and Peter Crouch - discussed the sides problems over a beer after the disappointing draw with Algeria.

I was telling caddie Steve Williams we made three mental mistakes today. The only thing it cost us was the chance to win the US Open.Woods, who had parted company with swing coach Hank Haney following the Masters, did admit that his overall play at Pebble Beach this week had given him plenty of encouragement for the future.I feel like I can play now, he said I can I get a feel for my game, the shape of my shots, what Im working on, and the two major championships I finished I had a chance to win both of them So its not too bad.

The 60th-ranked Falla had lost radist @ 2010. jún. 23. 11:21 | még nincsenek kommentek

The 60th-ranked Falla had lost all 11 sets in his previous four matches against Federer, but the Colombian played brilliant tennis to take charge of the match early. The turnaround came in the fourth set with Falla serving for the match and three points from victory, when Federer broke for only the second time.But, if this were happening to any other team in this World Cup, it would be more heartbreaking than hysterical. But because its France, a team that is to melodrama what Italy is to flopping and whining, this is just brilliantly dark comedy, and because of that Thierry Henry handball, it is taken as karmic comeuppance. It gives writers reason to trot out hacky jokes about French success or lack thereof in international conflicts, and bar patrons a target for drunken diatribes. Its convenient and comforting for some Americans, whose concept of France is a country full of lily-livered, wine-swilling, cheese-chomping effete elitists, to see France fail at something.Of course, for the average French soccer fan, it must be crushing France can still advance—it would likely require a dominating win over South Africa and a 1-0 result in Mexico-Uruguay—and keeping it together for the next few days might at least salvage some dignity Instead, the nation that came within a headbutt and a penalty kick of claiming the World Cup in 2006 appears poised to implode, hand Bafana Bafana a triumph on home soil, and trek back to Europe without a single point, and perhaps not a goal.

Defending champion Roger Federer came back from the brink as he narrowly avoided becoming the casualty of the greatest upset in Wimbledon history.Federer was two sets down to unheralded Alejandro Falla and the Colombian then served for the match in the fourth set before losing 5-7 4-6 6-4 7-6 7-1 6-0.Only two defending champions had ever lost in the first round at the All England Club and Federer had to use all his fighting spirit to avoid becoming the third.

Robinsons conducted a survey of the most memorable moments in history here at Wimbledon and guess who came top? Me, saying, You cannot be serious.Not Roger Federer breaking the grand slam record, Pat Cash winning Wimbledon or Virginia Wade winning Wimbledon.So he has to go out on the court and say stuff like You cannot be serious, pump himself up Thats what pumped me up That was early in the tournament and I won that year 1981.
