WOW! I thought Chuck Lidell was dead. Well maybe not but he sure took one on the sweet spot! Incredible...

Evans knocks Liddell cold at UFC 88

By Kevin Iole and Dave Meltzer

ATLANTA � Complete coverage of UFC 88 from Philips Arena:

Light heavyweights: Rashad Evans (17-0-1) def. Chuck Liddell (21-6)
How: TKO, 1:51 Round 2
Key moment: Evans, after not having landed many strikes, suddenly connected with a punishing overhand right that knocked Liddell out.
Analysis: Liddell made the same mistake he made when he lost his light heavyweight belt last year to Quinton �Rampage� Jackson. He went to throw an uppercut and Evans caught him with a booming overhand right. The win will zoom Evans to the top of the division and places him squarely among the UFC�s elite at 205 pounds. Liddell has lost three of his last four and there at least has to be thought if he�s come to the end of the line of a spectacular career. � Kevin Iole

Light heavyweights: Rich Franklin (26-3) def. Matt Hamill (6-2)
How: Ref stoppage at 0:39 of Round 3
Key moment: Franklin�s ability to continually land kicks to the leg and body and keep Hamill from taking him down most of the way spelled the difference. The low kicks slowed Hamill�s movement and left him open for body kicks. In the third round, Hamill went down from a hard body kick and Franklin finished him with punches on the ground. Franklin has a nasty cut on the side of his right eye but Hamill wasn�t able to connect on it after early in the second round.
Analysis: Former middleweight champ Franklin, in his first light heavyweight fight in more than three years at light heavyweight, executed a good game plan on one of the stronger man in the division. But in moving up in weight, the question becomes how he can fare with the high-caliber strikers at the top of this division. What he showed is strong takedown defense and a good battle plan against someone is primarily a wrestler, something that was his strength as a middleweight. � Dave Meltzer

Middleweights: Dan Henderson (23-7) def. Rousimar Palhares (17-2)
Judges scores: Unanimous decision (29-28, 30-27, 30-27)
Yahoo! Sports score: Kevin Iole and Dave Meltzer each had it 29-28 for Henderson.
Key moment: Henderson used his savvy to escape a second-round leg lock from the Brazilian jiu-jitsu expert.
Analysis: Henderson got a much needed victory after losses to champions Quinton �Rampage� Jackson and Anderson Silva, but it didn�t come easy. It was clear he respected Palhares� jiu-jitsu and wanted no part of going to the ground. Palhares had difficulty taking the fight down and the result was that Henderson�s superior striking led him to a close win and kept alive his hopes for a rematch with Silva for the middleweight title. � Kevin Iole

Middleweights: Nathan Marquardt (30-8-2) def. Martin Kampmann (13-2)
How: Ref stoppage from punches in 1:22 of the first round.
Key moment: Marquardt put Kampmann down with a right high kick and Kampmann never fully recovered. The finishing flurry saw Marquardt throw a rapid series of punches against the cage, the key blows being an uppercut and a body punch.
Analysis: Marquardt rebounded from a loss to Thales Leitis on a controversial foul for a blow behind the head back at UFC 80 and handed Kampmann his first loss in UFC competition. Marquardt, who looked at his best here, remains one of UFC�s top middleweights, but he�s still part of the pack at the top who have all been stopped by Anderson Silva. � Dave Meltzer

Welterweights: Dong Hyun Kim (11-0-1) def. Matt Brown (10-7)
Judges scores: Split decision (29-28, 29-28, 28-29)
Yahoo! Sports score: Kevin Iole and Dave Meltzer each had it 29-28 for Kim.
Key moment: Kim regained his conditioning in the third round and opened a cut under Brown�s eye with a vicious elbow that may have swung an extremely close fight his way.
Analysis: Kim is a highly regarded prospect and Brown did a good job of nullifying his offense. Brown�s Muay Thai skills are underrated and he landed a few solid knees. But Kim, who seemed to fatigue badly in the second round, appears to have more weapons and managed to pull out the win. Kim had several chokes in the first round that Brown fought out of. The loss shouldn�t hurt Brown too much, as he battled one of the UFC�s top welterweight hopes on nearly even terms. � Kevin Iole

Lightweights: Kurt Pellegrino (18-4) def. Thiago Tavares (17-3)
How: Unanimous decision on scores of 29-27, 29-27 and 29-28
Yahoo! Sports scores: Dave Meltzer and Kevin Iole each had it 29-27 for Pellegrino
Turning point: Pellegrino hurt Tavares early, stunning him with a punch and followed with two first round knockdowns and a ground-and- pound that would have finished most fighters. Tavares, who was bleeding badly from the left eye and ear, survived the round.
Analysis: In the second round, Tavares was on top most of the round but Pellegrino got an armbar and Tavares tapped, but ref Yves Lavigne missed it. Pellegrino didn�t know it either and said Tavares escaped the move rather than him letting go. In the third round, Tavares� takedown attempts were stuffed by Pellegrino who got on top to win the round. Pellegrino�s improved striking combined with the wrestling he�s always had strengthens his standing in a deep lightweight division. The best match so far in the show. � Dave Meltzer

Welterweights: Tim Boetsch (8-2) def. Mike Patt (15-3)
How: TKO, 2:03 Round 1
Key moment: Boetsch landed a crunching right hand square on Patt�s chin.
Analysis: Boetsch is a wrestler who only recently learned to strike, but if he continues to punch like he did on Saturday, he�ll move to the upper levels of the 205-pound division. He already has excellent wrestling skills and is dangerous with his knees. His vulnerability appeared to be his standup, but that weakness seems to be dissipating. � Kevin Iole

Middleweights: Jason MacDonald (22-10) def. Jason Lambert (23-9).
How: Rear naked choke at 1:20 of the second round.
Key moment: After a double-leg takedown early in the second round, MacDonald got Lambert�s back and was able to finish him with the choke.
Analysis: MacDonald looked like he was saved at the bell as with 10 seconds left in the first round, Lambert got a tight guillotine. MacDonald after the fight admitted it was tight but he was aware there were only seconds left in the round and held his breath until time ran out. MacDonald got a takedown and was in control most of the first round until the late guillotine. Round two opened with a slugfest, at which point MacDonald went low with a strong takedown which led to the finish. � Dave Meltzer

Welterweights: Ryo Chonan (12- def. Roan Carneiro (14-9)
Judges scores: Split decision (29-28, 29-28, for Chonan; 29-28 for Carneiro)
Yahoo! Sports scores: Kevin Iole and Dave Meltzer each had it 29-28 for Carneiro
Key moment: Carneiro had a strong first round and nearly forced a submission when he got Chonan into an armbar along the cage.
Analysis: The crowd clearly disapproved, as the men grappled on the ground for position in the final two rounds. Carneiro, who has now lost two in a row, did little offensively after the first round, but it was a fight that didn�t help either man�s career. There are a lot of strong contenders at 170 pounds, and not many people will want to see these two after this performance as well as a recent string of up-and-down fights. � Kevin Iole

Even if Obama was all rhetoric, I'd take my chances with him rather than vote in four more years of the GOP, with a die-hard Buchananite waiting in the wings.

I don't think he wants to haul off and slug one of his boys. That's why he has to decompress at times.

F Snyder, F Cerato, F Zorn and F Campbell!!!!

The Redskins loss is a direct result of Snyder NOT hiring Gregg Williams and KEEPING THE TEAM INTACT!!!!! What is the difference between the team that beat the Giants in NJ last December and last night?!?!?! Gregg Williams running the defense and TODD COLLINS at quarterback! I am tired of hearing Campbell cry about the 7th offensive system in 8 years. SUCK IT UP and PLAY or SIT DOWN!!!! Collins would have put some points on the board! Williams would have had the defense PREPARED to stop the Giants! Blache isn't nearly as good at Wiilliams and you better believe that Williams would have had the team running a hurry up offense with 4 minutes to go when they needed TWO SCORES!!!! It is obvious, Zorn doesn't know how to call plays and doesn't understand CLOCK MANAGEMENT!!!!

I am a lifelong Redskins fan but things have gone from bad to worse the moment Synder didn't give the coaching job to Williams. EB, I love you man but you are wrong about the skins. They will be 4-12 this year.

CBS sues NFL Players over fantasy football

There's no way the NFLPA wins this as MLB sued a bunch of the MLB fantasy leagues a few years back over the same thing and the judge ruled that stats were public knowledge and not owned by MLB.

Here are various links to different aspects of the MLB case in which the Supreme Court refused to hear their appeal http://techdirt.com/articles/20080602/1216571291.shtml

Giants DE Kiwanuka accuses Samuels of dirty play

Giants DE Kiwanuka accuses Samuels of dirty play

By TOM CANAVAN, AP Sports Writer

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP)�New York Giants defensive end Mathias Kiwanuka alleged on Friday that Washington Redskins tackle Chris Samuels made a dirty play when he fell on the back of his ankle after being beaten on a pass rush on the final play of the NFL season opener.

Kiwanuka hurt his left ankle on the play. X-rays were negative, but the ankle was still sore on Friday, and so was Kiwanuka.

Replays showed that Kiwanuka beat Samuel to the outside on a pass rush and started moving toward Redskins quarterback Jason Campbell in the waning seconds of the Giants� 16-7 victory.

Samuels quickly turned and made a low lunging tackle, wrapping his arms around Kiwanuka�s legs. His upper torso pinned Kiwanuka�s left ankle.

�Honestly, I thought it was a dirty play,� Kiwanuka said. �There�s no question about it. He was definitely beat and instead of recovering or giving up, I don�t know how many options you had, but I just don�t think there is any place for that in the NFL.�

Samuels was not in the Redskins locker room on Friday and was not immediately available for comment.

However, replays also showed Samuels wave his arms in a move that suggested that he was upset after the play. He stood over Kiwanuka as Giants trainers came on the field.

�Samuels, I spoke to him right after and he said it wasn�t intentional and I will just leave that at that,� Giants coach Tom Coughlin said Friday.

Kiwanuka was upset, especially after missing the final six games of last season with a broken lower leg that also caused ligament damage to his ankle.

�I don�t think there is any place for that in professional football,� he said.

Kiwanuka also wasn�t buying the idea that Samuels was trying to protect his quarterback.

�That doesn�t matter. Honestly, you take hits,� Kiwanuka said. �I took a big hit during the game and at this level, this is something that happens. Even the greatest players get knocked down. You have to stand back up, be a man and line up for the next snap. Something like that, I would never do it, having been out for the end of last season I know how valuable these games are. I would never do it to anybody, and I wouldn�t expect anyone to do it to me.�

Drafted in the first round in 2006 as a defensive end, Kiwanuka has a big role this season in the wake of the season-ending knee injury to Pro Bowler Osi Umenyiora. It forced Coughlin to switch him back from linebacker to end a couple of weeks ago.

Kiwanuka was worried that he was seriously injured after the play, but he knew it was not serious when he was able to put pressure on the ankle. He has not talked with Samuels. He does not believe the player targeted his left ankle, but he believes he deliberately jumped on it after being beaten.

�I don�t think he thought that deep into it,� Kiwanuka said. �He definitely tried to make a play intentionally that I felt was out of line.�

Fellow defensive end Justin Tuck understands Samuels desire to protect his quarterback, but he did not condone the play.

�You put another players� health in the balance, that is always going to be questionable,� Tuck said. �I know Chris. He is not a guy who will go out there and intentionally hurt a guy. It was just a bad judgment play.�

Defensive captain Antonio Pierce said the play was not pretty.

�I don�t want to label anybody, but obviously a play that should not have happened.�

Most of the Juinkies is good or great radio. Somewhere down below that, there's the kind of bad radio that makes the guys joke about how bad the radio is, and there's genuinely bad radio that make me turn the channel or turn on the iPod . . . and then there's Pablo Francisco.

Seriously, he's not funny, never has been funny, and probably never will be funny. Every time he's on any show with anyone at any time in any city anywhere, I will immediately flip it off.

Please, please, oh please, never book him again.
