Frank Gore breaks hip, out for season<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/p>\nIt seemed innocent enough at the time, but it wasn\u2019t. During last night\u2019s victory over Arizona, San Francisco 49ers stud running back Frank Gore limped to the sidelines. He returned for a play then exited again. He didn\u2019t appear to be in major discomfort. After the game, however, it was revealed that he broke his hip. Gore is out for the season.<\/p>\n
The early rumblings are that the injury won\u2019t affect Gore\u2019s career in the long-term but the 49ers will have to soldier on in 2010 with Brian Westbrook as their starter.<\/p>\n
Is Josh McDaniels safe as the Denver Broncos\u2019 coach? A few days ago, owner Pat Bowlen said he\u2019s \u201cnot interested in making a coaching change and that \u201cI\u2019m very happy with Josh. Josh is doing a good job.\u201d However, he seemed to reverse his thoughts entirely with this statement yesterday:<\/p>\n
\u201cThis has been a very trying and disappointing season for all of us. We haven\u2019t had the success we had hoped to achieve. Josh McDaniels is the head coach of the Broncos and you always strive for stability at the position. However, with five games left in the 2010 season, we will continue to monitor the progress of the team and evaluate what\u2019s in the best interest of this franchise.\u201d <\/p>\n
Hmm. Maybe the little fella will be jobless next season after all. Time will tell.<\/p>\n

NBA news: Stephen Jackson suspended one game; Dwyane Wade bailing on Spoelstra? <\/strong><\/p>\nThe NBA has suspended the Charlotte Bobcats\u2019 top scorer, Stephen Jackson, one game for failing to leave the court in a timely manner following an ejection. He was tossed from Saturday\u2019s loss to Milwaukee.<\/p>\n
The power of King James in Miami is becoming clear. It appears even the face of the heat franchise, Dwayne Wade, is falling under his influence. When asked about coach Paul Spoelstra, whom Wade clicked nicely with over the last couple of seasons, this week, Wade said \u201cI\u2019m not going to say he\u2019s \u2018my guy,\u2019 but he\u2019s my coach.\u201d While we don\u2019t want to overreact, it\u2019s pretty clear what D-Wade meant by that. How long before Pat Riley takes over?<\/p>\n
MLB news: Rockies extend Troy Tulowitzki with $160-million deal<\/strong><\/p>\nThe Colorado Rockies have retained star shortstop Troy Tulowitzki \u2013 but not for cheap. His deal is worth roughly $160 million over the next 10 years. While it seems like a fair deal for a guy who batted .315 and hit 15 homers in the month of September alone last season, his deal will eventually eat up one quarter of Colorado\u2019s payroll.<\/p>\n
