Ciro Ferrara, Giovinco, Marchisio and Del Piero should be at the centre of that, not cast aside because Inter are nine points clear in the first three months.. As I stood up to leave, he said "Hold on!!! There's a flag on the play!" and our hopes were still alive.About 0:03 seconds left on the clock, Ben threw a perfect pass to Mike Wallace for the win.Wow, no matter how may times you want to go on the field and kick big bens ass, you have to admit that he is one of the best Quarterbacks in the NFL today.The meaning of this article is for you Steeler fans Like me, don't give up Don't lose hope. Technically, we are still in the hunt for that Wild Card spot.. Talk about coming full circle: 17 years after Darren Oliver began his career with the Texas Rangers, it looks as though Oliver will be returning to the Rangers.The Texas Rangers are nearing completion of a one-year deal to add LHP Darren Oliver to the bullpen, two sources said Sunday night.Oliver, 39, has been used as a reliever for the last four years and has found significant success in that role.Over the last two seasons with the Los Angeles Angels, he is 12-2 with a 2.79 ERA.He has held left-handed hitters to a .247 batting average with a .286 on-base percentage during that time.Oliver still lives in the area, and his agents met with the Rangers during the winter meeting.At the time, Oliver was seeking at least the same salary as he made with the Angels in 2009 ($3.65 million).The Rangers were believed to be in the $3 million range, but were waiting on a deal for Mike Lowell to be completed.While $3 million in this marketplace might be a tad bit steep for Oliver given how many options are out there, I love this move from the Rangers' perspective.The Rangers add a quality left-handed reliever to their improving bullpen, and, as we saw last season with the Rangers, if the Rangers' pitching staff can achieve mediocrity, then the Rangers have a very good chance at winning lots of baseball games.Darren Oliver has proven to be one of the best left-handed set-up men in baseball over the last three seasons with the Angels, and bringing him to Texas is a coup for GM Jon Daniels.In addition, the future impact of this deal is next to nothing for the Rangers.By signing Oliver to a one-year contract, the Rangers mitigate the risk involved with signing a 39-year-old pitcher.It's also important to note that the Rangers did not have to surrender a draft pick to sign Oliver, even though he was a type A free agent, because the Angels did not offer him arbitration.But the real benefit of adding Darren Oliver is that it could potentially move CJ Wilson into the starting rotation.The Rangers were skeptical of moving Wilson out of the bullpen because he was so valuable as their primary left-handed set-up man, but now with Oliver on board, the Rangers have more flexibility to give Wilson a chance to start.Either way this move is a win-win for the Rangers.If Wilson stays in the bullpen, then the Rangers will have a deep and reliable bullpen to fall back on, but if Wilson moves into the starting rotation, then the Rangers' rotation could improve even more.

Joey Logano had just qualified his No. 20 GameStop-sponsored Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota seventh, for the Saturday afternoon Nationwide race at Auto Club Speedway back on Feb.

29.Since Logano was able to qualify his primary car, his back-up car would begin a four to six hour transformation in readiment for teammate Denny Hamlin, who would drive it the following weekend in Las Vegas.The cars originally unloaded from the teams hauler both had matching black shiny paint jobs, along with big bright orange numbers on both sides of the car, and the customary number on the middle of the roof.Written across the hood was the name Killzone in yellow lettering, along with a pair of menacing eyes that depicted one of the video game and entertainment software retailer GameStops many titles.This innovative transformationbeing used by enthusiasts around the country, which completely replaces the current paint scheme, takes the automobile from mild to wild, or is used for advertising purposes.I say Replace instead of Repaint because there is no painting involved when applying a car wrap, which is simply a vinyl sticker that covers the whole car.Before NASCAR started using vinyl about five years ago, teams would actually paint the designs on the cars, which could take three to four days depending on the design and sponsor of the car. The race team had to experiment with the different colors in order to get the right shades, and that often took four or five trips through the paint shopbefore company officials, including lawyers needed to approve sponsor designs.Once approved, the paint schemes had to pass through NASCAR's massive marketing, legal, and licensing process before they were allowed on the track.This was a very timely and expensive process, especially if NASCAR or the sponsor didnt like what they saw.Now that its all done by computer, it takes a day or two to make the approved decal and another four to six hours to remove and apply it.Car wraps have quickly become not only the easiest way to paint a vehicle, but are also the most cost effective because they can be removed with relative ease, making it much less expensive to change from one advertisement to another.The wrap itself comes in many pieces that fit together like a giant jigsaw puzzle, and is usually installed by two or three people, depending on the size of the vehicle. Once the wrap is completely fit into place windows, grille, and other areas need to be cut away.In the case of Loganos Nationwide car three installers worked on the wrap because the job had to be finished by the end of the Nationwide race, so the car could be put back in the hauler and sent on its way to the next race in Las Vegas.Most custom paint jobs can start anywhere from $10,000, and quickly escalate depending on the type of paint being used and the design chosen.Not only is custom painting expensive, it is also time consumingtaking anywhere from a few weeks to a few months, from start to finish.The cost to transform the No. 20 GameStop black Toyota that Logano drove at Auto Club Speedway, into the No. 20 First Interstate Batteries green Toyota that Hamlin drove in Las Vegas, was in the neighborhood of $3,000.Consider the cost of stripping, sanding, and painting the car each week, and vinyl wrapping becomes one of the few areas where teams can achieve much needed savings in todays hard-hiteconomy.. With Christmas fast approaching, the Wisconsin Badgers decided to treat themselves to an early present: two more recruits for the 2010 class.An added bonus is the fact that both recruits have a chance of seeing some significant playing time in 2010.At the wide receiver position, the Badgers gave Scott Tolzien another possible target next year, signing Chase Hammond Sunday morning.Hammond, a 6'4", 200-pounder out of Youngstown, Ohio, wasn't highly recruited, but is still a good addition to a team that is becoming more adept at passing after relying on the running game for the majority of the decade.Although Wisconsin's game plan is still very much geared towards pounding the ball down opponents' throats, a consistent quarterback and talented receivers have made the team multifaceted.If Hammond performs well in practice and in spring ball, it's definitely possible that he could see some action next year.

Now, Wisconsin does have scores of wide receivers ready to play next year, but other than Nick Toon and Isaac Anderson, none of them have proven anything and playing time is very much up for grabs.Hammond is Wisconsin's second wide receiver commitment this year along with Marquis Mason.However, the big recruiting news is not the signing of Hammond. It's the commitment of four-star defensive tackle Beau Allen.Allen, a 6'3", 292-pound beast out of Minnetonka, Minnesota, is a huge addition to a defense that struggled mightily in 2009.Although the defensive line was the one aspect of the defense that actually performed well this year, it loses O'Brien Schofield to graduation. Allen may not be able to replace Schofield, but he will certainly help.Allen, rated as the No. 25 defensive tackle in his class, excelled at the nose guard position while in high school, finishing his junior season with 47 tackles with three sacks and three forced fumbles.Allen will have to make the adjustment of playing the 4-3 defense in Wisconsin after playing the 3-4 in high school.

However, the job is still the same: pressure the quarterback and stuff up the run game.After losing a player like Schofield, everyone knew the Badgers' D-line would take a hit. Raise your hand if the Miami Dolphins 27-24 overtime loss to the Tennessee Titans yesterday made you think of an obscure 1970 movie called "Two Mules For Sister Sara," starring Clint Eastwood and Shirley MacLaine. Okay. I didn’t think so. Oddly enough, it did remind me of that Not so much the movie, but the title. And truthfully, not so much the title, but the idea of two mules. Not one mule, but two mules. And not real mules loaded down with bedrolls and clanging pots and spare ponchos, but metaphoric mules, ones with symbolic value. And the symbolic value of the two mules further came to me in terms of a good mule and a bad mule. (If there was a third metaphoric mule, then another Clint Eastwood movie could be lifted for this blog: the Good, the Bad and the Ugly). But no, we said two mules and we aim to stick with that. Anyway, let’s get down to business.
