Dolphins going for another perfect season Nighty Cap

• Does Cabernet go with dog fighting or is it Pinot Noir?

Wachovia Bank is seeking about $940,000 from Atlanta Falcons quarterback Michael Vick and a business partner.

The bank claims that since Vick's indictment on federal dogfighting charges, they defaulted on a 2006 loan to set up a wine shop and restaurant.


Chris Chambers has become a more viable fantasy option. In an effort to make sure they finish 0-16 the Phins have traded their best WR to the Chargers for only a second round pick in next year's draft.

"This will help us get worse even faster, which has been our goal this season, said an anonymous source in the Miami front office. "Chambers was playing too well this season, we asked him to try and play worse, but he refused to listen to "Coach?" Cameron.


• In some good news from the NFL front. Injured Buffalo Bills player Kevin Everett has been able to walk to some extent as part of his rehabilitation after suffering a severe spinal cord injury during the team's season opener.


• Dan Shaughnessy has thrown in the towel on the Sawx this season.

Fenway Park and "Sweet Caroline" can't save them now.

A global network of fans, a $143 million payroll, a front office of stat geeks, and a savvy collection of marketing persons and television executives can't help the Boston Red Sox at this hour. Makes my giggle with glee.


The axe may fall on The Gator. Though several Yankees officials insist decisions haven't been made about next year's coaching staff, speculation is growing that Ron Guidry won't be asked back for a third year as the pitching coach.


• The Hardball Times examines off-season blockbuster trades from 1970-1992 in this three part series. Take a trip down memory lane. Time for me to run, I have people to piss off.
