If the Jacksonville Jaguars are known as the
"Jags," and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are known as
the "Bucs," what does that make the Tennessee Titans ? ~*~

This might not cause a big stir but it is the eve of the AFL grand final between Brisbane Vs Port Adelaide. Go the lions.

Listen Here Now for live radio on 3AW for the AFL Grand final which bounces down in a little over an hour from this post but the link is already active

Port Power have finally taken their first flag in the AFL after disappointing for so many years in the finals rounds .
Congrats Port

Ken Caminiti died yesterday at the age of 41 of heart failure. He was the 1996 National League Most Valueable Player and a 3 time All Star 3rd baseman. I had the priviledge of watching him play in Houston and at the height of his career was a true legend, who gave everything he had to the game, and led our team and many others to many victories. A tragic loss to the world of baseball. We'll miss you Kenny, hope you're finally at peace.

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO RED SOCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

RED SOX rule!!!! ;-)

Yes they do, till the Astros play them ; )

ok, never mind ! GO RED SOX!!!!!!

Thanks to Pedro Martínez for helping to look after the World of Sport DB. Its not a busy board compared to others, but with his help at least it should be kept clean & free of hassle :o)

I suggest that you change the word moderator to referee! After all we are on Sports DB!
:-)))))))
I hope you don't show many red or Yellow cards!

Speaking of that, its official Arsenal finally lost a Premiership Game. Congrats Ronaldo and Rooney.
Sorry for the gunners... hey one day it has to happen...

Has anybody seen the game ? I mean the foul that preceded the penalty kick by Nistelrooij ... ? Cause I have heard it was very doubtful ?!

Yes very doubtful indeed...

I agree, the foul that caused the penalty was not one, though the foul soon after should of been. At the end of the day i agree (as an Arsenal supporter) with Ferjo that Arsenal getting beat was bound to happen sooner or later and i think its for the best as too much pressure was being put on them to carry on this amazing run. They play great football at the moment and are great to watch, i just wish they could turn there skill into scoring more goals and not sitting back when they do take the lead.

yep! good one Monkey.

Yes turn there skills to playing fairly too, Not fighting lol, I think that lets the team down sometimes, when they turn nasty agais'nt another team, also lets the supporters down too

Boston Redsoxs... World series champs....
Thanks to St. Louis and the rest of the MLB for a great season...

World series champs first time since 1918 0:-D

Well Dan.... we do have one thing we agree on.

I have been saying "wait til next year" ever since I had a tee shirt saying the same after the 1975 world series loss. Thats almost 30 years of heartbreak, and it looked to be more of the same this season. And there are others out here who have been at it longer than I have. My grandfather was born in 1913 and was 5 years old when the Sox won their last world series, and he is estatic that he got to see another one! I just hope that the 5 year olds of today dont have to wait until they are 93 for it to happen again....

GO RED SOX!!!!!!!!!

YAHOOOOOOIIEE!!!!!!!

Do you think anyone will be at the parade?
LOL.... I will see you all there?

I'll be there...;D

Way to go pedro!

I am sad that you will probably be on another team come next year :(
Now that you have your ring, I think money will become the key issue...

Thats a long drive from the Czech Republic, watch out for that pot hole once you get to the coast, it's a big one

I am not a huge Ice Hockey fan, but know its big in the States & Canada. Just a little note about a young local lad who is playing out there now Tom Duggan. I wish him all the luck in the world. It has cost his parents alot of money and alot of faith in him to get him where he has got. Let's hope he just gets better :o)

The death of Emlyn Hughes was announced earlier today.
Emlyn Hughes

Yes another great person to pass away, he will be missed, i loved watching him on Question of sport, so many years ago

1968
Night of the "Heidi game:" NBC switched from football to movie of Heidi. In the missing 42 seconds, the lagging Raiders scored two touchdowns, defeating the Jets.

I was very young, but I do remember that game, and the ensuing controversy.....

Europeans Champions FC Porto (and my team) get their place in the last 16 of the UEFA Champions League in thrilling style with victory against Chelsea FC, while Arsenal FC and Werder Bremen also ensured berths in the first knockout round.

GROUP E
Arsenal claimed top spot in Group E with a 5-1 triumph against Rosenborg BK. Arsenal and PSV finished level on ten points, but the London club took first place given their superior head-to-head record following a 1-0 win against the Dutch team. Well done Gunners and Electric team! :-)

GROUP F
AC Milan's 0-0 draw away to Celtic FC proved enough to win Group F. Milan and Barcelona were ensured qualification at kick-off.

GROUP G
Valencia CF and Bremen were competing to qualify along with FC Internazionale Milano, and it was the German champions, needing only a draw, who prevailed thanks to two late goals. Inter matched their Milanese rivals by winning the group.

GROUP H
On a night of high drama in this pool, European champions Porto joined group winners Chelsea in the first knockout round after coming from a goal down to beat the Londoners. Thanks to Benni McCarthy's (HEYYYYYYYYY BENNY) late strike in a 2-1 victory, Porto did not become the first holders to exit in the group stage (Thank God!). The result also meant heartbreak for PFC CSKA Moskva who were pushed into third despite beating Paris Saint-Germain FC 3-1 at the Parc des Princes with a Sergei Semak hat-trick - the Russian side were provisionally in second place until McCarthy's 86th-minute goal (YEAP, and we were out of Uefa too, when we were loosing...). CSKA at least qualify for the UEFA Cup, some reward for a battling performance that saw them score twice after being reduced to ten men by Deividas Semberas's 54th-minute dismissal (Unbelievable, anyone see the Paris match?). PSG - who held second position at kick-off.

Allez Porto Allez
Nós somos a tua voz
Queremos esta vitória
Conqistada por vós

We are the champions - my friends
And we'll keep on fighting
Till the end
We are the champions
We are the champions
No time for losers
Cause we are the champions of the World

I've taken my bows
And my curtain calls
You brought me fame and fortune
And everything that goes with it
I thank you all
But it's been no bed of roses
No pleasure cruise
I consider it a challenge before
The whole human race
And I ain't gonna lose

And we mean to go on and on and on and on

We are the champions - my friends
And we'll keep on fighting
Till the end
We are the champions
We are the champions
No time for losers
Cause we are the champions of the World
