Enjoy! <\/p>\n
For the second straight day, we open the daily news with something Earth shattering. Apparently Doc Halladay is God.<\/p>\n
MLB news: Roy Halladay throws second no-hitter in playoff history; Red Sox owners buying Liverpool?<\/strong><\/p>\n Roy Halladay toiled in obscurity as a Toronto Blue Jay for over a decade. But the secret was finally revealed this season: he\u2019s the best pitcher in the business.<\/p>\n As if a perfect game in May and 21 wins weren\u2019t enough this season, Halladay stepped up and tossed a no-hitter in his playoff debut, shutting down the Cincinnati Reds and walking one batter. To top it off, he also drove in a run, so he essentially beat the Reds by himself. Doc\u2019s no-no was just second in MLB postseason history. The last one came in 1956 when Don Larsen tossed a perfect game.<\/p>\n Fun fact: Don Larsen is\u00a0alive. <\/em>He congratulated Roy Halladay in an interview with the\u00a0Associated Press. <\/em>\u201cQuite a nice effort he had,\u201d Larsen quipped. \u201cYou have to give him credit for that.\u201d A little halfhearted, Don, but we\u2019ll take it.<\/p>\n It looks like the Boston Red Sox owners are venturing into English soccer. On Tuesday night, New England Sports Ventures dropped $477 million to buy Liverpool . The majority of the money would reportedly cover the debts of current owners Tom Hicks and George Gillett Jr., though they are expected to challenge the deal in court. <\/p>\n NFL news: Jay Cutler out versus Panthers; Max Hall named Cardinals\u2019 starting quarterback<\/strong><\/p>\n The Bears said Jay Cutler was \u201cOK\u201d after he was concussed in Chicago\u2019s loss to the New York Giants last week. But it should come as no surprise that they spoke too soon considering he took nine sacks in two quarters.<\/p>\n Cutler has been ruled out for Sunday\u2019s game against Carolina, ending a stretch of 57 straight starts. Todd Collins will get the nod in his place. Cutler will practice on Thursday and Friday and be re-evaluated next week.<\/p>\n Attention, BYU fans: your former star quarterback is now an NFL starter. Max Hall will start over Derek Anderson in the Arizona Cardinals\u2019 Week 5 matchup against New Orleans this Sunday. Hall got a cup of coffee after Anderson was hooked in Arizona\u2019s blowout loss last week, completing eight of 14 passes for 82 yards.<\/p>\n NCAA football news: Two Baylor receivers arrested<\/strong><\/p>\n After a Baylor basketball star was already arrested this week, two Baylor football players are in the same boat now.<\/p>\n Sophomore receivers Willie Jefferson and Josh Gordon were charged with misdemeanour marijuana possession after police got a call to a Taco Bell near Baylor\u2019s campus. They found Jefferson passed out in the driver\u2019s seat of his car in the drive-through lane with Gordon beside him. Police found marijuana with them in the car.<\/p>\n NBA news: Pistons forward Jerebko out five to six months<\/strong><\/p>\n The Detroit Pistons already had an uphill climb awaiting them in the Eastern Conference this season and it just got tougher. Swedish forward Jonas Jerebko tore his right Achilles\u2019 tendon in Detroit\u2019s exhibition game against Miami on Tuesday. He averaged 9.3 points and six rebounds as a rookie last season.<\/p>\n Comments are welcome below!<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/strong> Sports water cooler headlines and sports gossip for Thursday October 7th, 2010.
