It seems Randy Moss opened the floodgates by discussing his impending departure from New England the other day. Several other legends either discussed their futures or were handed walking papers over the last 24 hours.<\/p>\n
NFL news: Chargers release LaDainian Tomlinson<\/strong><\/p>\n It was only a matter of time. LaDainian Tomlinson\u2019s career with the San Diego Chargers over the last decade bordered on legendary, but his prime is long gone and the Chargers, a major AFC contender, need a 20-carry back to help their anemic rushing attack. LT is no longer capable of carrying that type of load.<\/p>\n Tomlinson ranks eighth on the NFL\u2019s all-time rushing list, second in rushing touchdowns and third in total touchdowns. It remains to be seen whether a team wants to take a chance that he can squeeze out another good season, especially after he averaged just 3.3 yards per carry in 2009. But the Packers, Patriots and Vikings have all been linked to his name.<\/p>\n NBA news: Allen Iverson leaves 76ers, possibly for good<\/strong><\/p>\n Allen Iverson\u2019s latest pickle isn\u2019t necessarily \u201ctypical\u201d A.I., as he\u2019s missed time to be with his sick daughter rather than his bruised ego. But, regardless of his reasons, he\u2019s been in and out of Philly\u2019s lineup constantly since he rejoined them this season. Iverson reportedly has been a good teammate, not complaining about his minutes, but the team may choose to move on from him anyway. We should know within the next week.<\/p>\n Zydrunas Ilgauskas update: while he\u2019ll still probably try to rejoin Cleveland once the waiting period is up, that doesn\u2019t mean other teams can\u2019t try to woo him during that probation. MLB news: Manny says 2010 will be his last season with Dodgers<\/strong><\/p>\n Following Randy Moss\u2019 lead, Manny decided to publicly state his intention to leave his team before his final season with that team even started. Curious. While Randy Moss\u2019s logic behind his upcoming move was more about the numbers game, the changing business, Manny was simply being Manny. He didn\u2019t state a reason for not expecting or wanting a contract extension. He just said \u201cI don\u2019t know. I just know I\u2019m not going to be here.\u201d<\/p>\n Ironically, did ManRam do a better job posturing himself than Moss? Moss almost devalued himself by suggesting he\u2019ll be run out of town whereas Manny phrased things so that leaving sounds like\u00a0his <\/em>decision. Interesting.<\/p>\n Olympics news: Canada benches Martin Brodeur<\/strong><\/p>\n When you hit a certain age, I suppose being the NHL\u2019s all-time leader in wins and shutouts doesn\u2019t always mean much. The fact of the matter is that Canada faces elimination and utter disaster tonight in men\u2019s hockey and coach Mike Babcock has lost confidence in Martin Brodeur. The New Jersey Devils stalwart struggled to handle puck in Sunday\u2019s costly loss to the U.S., playing right into the Americans\u2019 gameplan to force turnovers.<\/p>\n Now, Roberto Luongo will get the call, starting tonight against Germany. He doesn\u2019t have Marty\u2019s winning resume but he has nowhere to go but up after Brodeur\u2019s uninspired effort on the weekend.<\/p>\n <\/strong> Sports water cooler headlines and sports gossip for Tuesday February 23rd, 2010.
