Top 10 at 10:10
10. 14 Year old becomes the youngest player to make the cut in a golf event.
- Fourteen-year-old Jason Hak shot a 70 in each of the first two rounds at his home tournament, the $2.5 million Hong Kong Open. He just made the even-par 140 cut at the end of the second round by drilling a 150-yard approach onto the 18th green and holing a 10-foot putt for birdie.
9. What a Knight! Texas Tech scores 167 points in win.
- Texas Tech gave coach Pat Knight something his famous father never received from the Red Raiders: 167 points. Trevor Cook scored a career-high 20 and was one of 10 players in double figures for Texas Tech, which shattered the school record for points Thursday night in a 167-115 victory over East Central.
8. Martz light in the wallet after bad mouthing refs following loss to Cards.
- San Francisco 49ers offensive coordinator Mike Martz, who publicly blamed the officials for the chaotic ending to the Nov. 10 game against the Arizona Cardinals, has been fined $20,000 for those comments.
7. Jets rookie Ainge suspended four games for violating steroids policy
- Ainge is the second Jets player suspended this season. Running back Jesse Chatman was banned for the first four games without pay for also violating the league’s steroids and related-substances policy.
6. Mariners make history as they hire the MLB’s first Asian-American Manager.
- Don Wakamatsu is proud to be the first Asian-American manager in major league history. He’s also keenly aware of what his grandparents endured, generations before he took over the Seattle Mariners. During World War II, the United States government moved his Japanese ancestors across the country from one internment camp to another. Wakamatsu’s father, an iron worker, was born in one.
5. A’s Owner proposes 1 game first round playoff system.
- Lew Wolff has a way to shorten baseball’s postseason: Make the first round best-of-one. “I’d make it one-game-and-you’re-out for the first series,” the Oakland Athletics owner said Wednesday. “It would be exciting. It would be great.”
4. Jerry Jones Announces that Pac Man Jones has been Reinstated.
- The NFL confirmed Friday that suspended cornerback Adam “Pacman” Jones can join the Dallas Cowboys on Monday and that he can play again Dec. 7 against Pittsburgh — but only if he stays on his best behavior.
3. Former ASU star/Boston Red Sox star Dustin Pedroia wins first ever NL MVP.
- Pedroia added to his ever-expanding trophy case Tuesday, becoming the first second baseman to earn the honor in nearly a half-century. The Boston little man with the meaty swing easily beat out Minnesota slugger Justin Morneau, Red Sox teammate Kevin Youkilis and record-setting Los Angeles Angels closer Francisco Rodriguez in a scattered ballot that saw five different players draw first place-votes.
2. Shaq denies his Lakers themed interview.
- The “news” was that O’Neal had not ruled out a return to the Lakers when he is a free agent in 2010 and that Lakers coach Phil Jackson orchestrated O’Neal’s tension with Kobe Bryant. Part of the problem was that O’Neal said Wednesday that he did not talk to anyone in Sacramento, where the Suns played last Friday - but the interview was done in the preseason in Phoenix by the Bee’s Scott Howard-Cooper.
1. Agent states that Edge wants out of AZ after being named to back-up duty.
- “We spoke with [general manager] Rod Graves because Edgerrin still believes he is a 1,000-yard back and he is healthy and he is still capable of being a 1,000-yard back for a team,” Rosenhaus said. “He is not playing now, and there are teams that are banged up at the running back position that he could help. We didn’t get the answer we were hoping for.”
