NFL news; Patriots lose Leigh Bodden for season; Cardinals shopping Leinart <\/strong><\/p>\nThe New England Patriots can\u2019t catch a break this preseason. Their \u201cD\u201d already lost defensive end Ty Warren; now they\u2019re placing starting cornerback Leigh Bodden on injured reserve, ending his season. Though he\u2019d played through a knee injury over the last few weeks, the Pats say it was a shoulder injury that knocked him out for the season. He led New England with five interceptions last season.<\/p>\n
Arizona is actively shopping Matt Leinart. In other news, the milk in my fridge is past the best before date. You interested?<\/p>\n
The Cards are trying to trade him but can\u2019t find a buyer so far. Oakland is happy with Jason Campbell and Bruce Gradkowski. The Bills reportedly don\u2019t want to mess with the already-fragile confidence or their quarterbacks. Rumor has it the Giants may want him to play second or third fiddle to Eli manning.<\/p>\n
NHL news: Anti Niemi signs with Sharks <\/strong><\/p>\nInstead of focusing on the NHL\u2019s crusade to void contracts, let\u2019s look at something a bit more positive. Stanley Cup champion goaltender Anti Niemi, let go by the cash-strapped Chicago Blackhawks, is now a San Jose Shark. He signed a one-year, $2-million deal. The only real loser in this signing; Antero Niittymaki, who may have thought he\u2019d be the starter after signing with San Jose on July 1.<\/p>\n
