We can only go so long before Manny Ramirez forces himself back into the daily news. He\u2019ll lead it off today.<\/p>\n
MLB news: Manny Ramirez expected to join White Sox today<\/strong><\/p>\n After yet another bitter farewell to a team \u2013 he got ejected from his last game as a Los Angeles Dodger \u2013 Manny Ramirez appears to have a new home in Major League Baseball.<\/p>\n The deal isn\u2019t official, but the Chicago White Sox are expected to officially claim the enigmatic but gifted slugger off waivers today. Manny may even end up in Chicago\u2019s lineup tonight. He\u2019ll bring a .311 average with eight homers and 40 RBI in 196 at-bats this season to the White Sox.<\/p>\n NBA news: Nuggets working hard to deal Melo; Jamal Crawford\u2019s agents to meet with Hawks<\/strong><\/p>\n With possible extension negotiations at an impasse, it appears the Denver Nuggets are now open to trading Carmelo Anthony. For now, they\u2019re reportedly exploring options with three different teams.<\/p>\n The New Jersey Nets are a potential destination and a market that reportedly appeals to Melo. The Sacramento Kings may have interest but probably can\u2019t acquire Anthony without gutting too much of their young talent. Minnesota is also possibly in on the action but it\u2019s highly doubtful that Melo would OK a deal there. <\/p>\n Jamal Crawford isn\u2019t necessarily ready to leave the Atlanta Hawks but he wants a clearer idea of his future. The reigning Sixth Man of the Year\u2019s agent plans to meet with the team this week to determine whether an extension is possible. If it isn\u2019t, Crawford may then request a trade.<\/p>\n NFL news: Antonio Bryant\u2019s career in jeopardy? Donovan McNabb questionable for Week 1<\/strong><\/p>\n The underrated, volatile Antonio Bryant looked like a good fit for the Cincinnati Bengals before chronic knee troubles crept up on him. The Bengals then signed Terrell Owens and figured they had a fine group of pass catchers with Chad Ochocinco plus rookies Jordan Shipley and Jermaine Gresham on board.<\/p>\n As a result, they released Bryant this weekend. Reportedly, the muscles around his surgically repaired knee just aren\u2019t strong enough to support it. If it doesn\u2019t get better, Bryant may not find a team all season and, worse yet, may be done as an NFLer.<\/p>\n Will Donovan McNabb be ready for his Washington Redskins regular-season debut in Week 1? It remains to be seen. He hasn\u2019t practiced since he sprained his ankle in Washington\u2019s second preseason game and he missed Friday\u2019s preseason matchup. He won\u2019t play in the Redskins\u2019 preseason finale and is now questionable to start against Dallas in Week 1.<\/p>\n NHL news: Kariya out for season with post-concussion syndrome; Leafs sign Clarke MacArthur<\/strong><\/p>\n Paul Kariya looked like a future Hall-of-Fame talent early in his NHL career but repeated injuries \u2013 especially concussions \u2013 derailed him. Now, it\u2019s possible all those head injuries have finished him for good.<\/p>\n He announced on Friday that he\u2019ll sit out the entire 2010-11 season. After an examination from a concussion specialist, Kariya decided his post-concussion symptoms made it too risky for him to play this year. But he\u2019s not totally ancient at 34 years old so we may see Kariya back next season.<\/p>\n The Toronto Maple Leafs hope they aided their quest for a top-six forward when they signed Clarke MacArthur on Friday. The 25-year-old had 35 points last year with Buffalo and Atlanta and has scored 16 or more goals in consecutive seasons.<\/p>\n Comments are welcome below!<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/strong> Sports water cooler headlines and sports gossip for Monday August 30th, 2010.
