Colts News: Collie Gets Concussed<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nThis week\u2019s big concussion victim: Indianapolis Colts receiver Austin Collie. He was knocked unconscious for a long time \u2013 it seemed like 10 minutes or more if you were watching \u2013 after taking a hit from Eagles safety Kurt Coleman. Unlike some other recent hits, like the James Harrison fiasco, Coleman\u2019s hit was tougher to decipher. Was Collie defenseless, as the officials claimed? He seemed to have possession of the ball and wasn\u2019t in the air.<\/p>\n
Dolphins linebacker Channing Crowder freaked out during Miami\u2019s loss to Baltimore last week, needing his teammates to restrain him. Was it a wounded ego because the team he trash talked all week laid a beatdown on his team? Not according to Crowder. He claims that Ravens fullback Le\u2019Ron McClain spit in his face.<\/p>\n
Though Minnesota kept its season on life support by winning in overtime yesterday, another ugly story leaked before the game. Percy Harvin and Brad Childress had a heated argument on Friday; Harvin reportedly almost punched Childress. Harvin said the argument was about Childress wanting him to get an MRI on his ankle and him wanting to just go out and play.<\/p>\n
MLB news: Mets clubhouse manager says he bet on baseball; Moyer\u2019s career over? Honus Wagner makes nuns rich<\/strong><\/p>\nNew York Mets clubhouse manager Charlie Samuels did his best Pete Rose impression on Friday. He admitted to betting on baseball one or more times. Samuels has been with the Mets for 27 years. The team suspended him on Thursday. <\/p>\n
Jamie Moyer, who turns 48 this month, may finally have to hang up his cleats. He planned to return in 2011 after winning nine games in 2010 but reportedly reinjured his elbow in a Winter League game over the weekend. Retirement could be imminent.<\/p>\n
Thanks to the legendary Honus Wagner, some nuns got a whole lot richer. The brother of a deceased nun died earlier this year and the School Sisters of Notre Dame in Baltimore inherited a Honus Wagner baseball card from him. Wagner cards are considered the rarest and most sought-after in baseball card collecting history. Even though the card wasn\u2019t in mint condition, the nuns sold it for $262,000. They\u2019ll donate the proceeds to ministries for the poor in 35 countries.<\/p>\n
Isaiah Thomas still envisions LeBron in New York?<\/strong><\/p>\nJust in case you though Isaiah Thomas was no longer crazy, here\u2019s a quick update for you: he dreams of being the New York Nicks president in 2014 and signing LeBron James. Good stuff. He said he hopes \u201cevery single day of the week\u201d to replace Donnie Walsh when he retires. Then he provided this glorious quote:<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen I look at my GM\/executive record, if I\u2019m evaluated on that, then whoever\u2019s after Donnie, if you\u2019re not talking about some of the top people in the game, I\u2019ll put my draft evaluation record up against anyone\u2019s.\u201d<\/p>\n
