Enjoy! <\/p>\n
After the NFL\u2019s opening Sunday, it feels like half the league went down to injury, doesn\u2019t it? Let\u2019s sort through the wreckage in today\u2019s news.<\/p>\n
NFL news: Matt Stafford out with shoulder injury; Matt Moore, Kevin Kolb concussed; Randy Moss calls out team <\/strong><\/p>\n Though there was plenty of good to discuss, which you can read about in today\u2019s NFL roundup, plenty of big-name players went down yesterday.<\/p>\n Most notably, Detroit Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford looks like he\u2019ll miss about six weeks with a shoulder injury he suffered after Julius Peppers hit him yesterday. He\u2019s scheduled for an X-Ray and MRI today.<\/p>\n The Philadelphia Eagles got absolutely decimated in their loss to Green Bay yesterday. Fullback Leonard Weaver tore his ACL and will miss the rest of 2010. Center Jamaal Jackson is also likely out for the year after tearing his bicep.<\/p>\n Newly anointed starting quarterback Kevin Kolb only lasted a half before leaving with a concussion.<\/p>\n Carolina Panthers quarterback Matt Moore also got concussed yesterday against the New York Giants. Packers running back Ryan Grant suffered the dreaded high ankle sprain, as did Steelers left tackle Max Starks. The woeful Buffalo Bills may have lost Paul Posluszny to a long-term knee injury as well.<\/p>\n Injuries aside, we also saw some locker-room drama in Week 1. After San Francisco got blown out by Seattle, 49ers coach Mike Singletary called out quarterback Alex Smith and wideout Michael Crabtree for poor play. Randy Moss also spoke out about the Patriots not making an effort to re-sign him. <\/p>\n \u201cThere hasn\u2019t been anything said. Not a letter, not nothing…I\u2019m hurt,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n MLB news: Rockies win 10<\/strong>th<\/strong><\/sup> straight game<\/strong><\/p>\n It\u2019s simply amazing to see the Colorado Rockies do the same thing every September. Here we go again. After Jason Giambi\u2019s walkoff homer yesterday versus Arizona, the Rockies have won 10 straight games. They\u2019ve pulled to within a game and a half of San Diego and San Francisco in the National League West.<\/p>\n Colorado starts a crucial three-game series against the Padres tonight at Coors Field.<\/p>\n NBA news: Darius Miles attempts comeback with Charlotte Bobcats; Team USA wins world basketball championship<\/strong><\/p>\n Was Darius Miles a bust? Expectations were high when the Los Angeles Clippers drafted him third overall in 2000 and, while he wasn\u2019t an utter disaster, he was close. It took him five seasons to get his scoring average into double figures and he never scored more than 14 per game. He\u2019s barely played at all since having microfracture knee surgery in 2006.<\/p>\n Still, Miles is just 28 years old. The Charlotte Bobcats wonder if he has some good basketball left in him, so they\u2019ve signed him to a non-guaranteed contract.<\/p>\n Team USA won the world basketball championship on Sunday, beating Turkey 81-64 and riding a 28-point effort from tournament MVP Kevin Durant.<\/p>\n You\u2019d think the win wasn\u2019t news but the title was actually Team USA\u2019s first at the worlds since 1994.<\/p>\n Comments are welcome below!<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/strong> Sports water cooler headlines and sports gossip for Monday September 13th, 2010.
