Sadly, there just isn’t a helluva lot of interesting sports-related stuff happening right now. Demetrius Jones got his transfer. But you’re sick of all things Notre Lame. Does this great Charlie Weis Myspace profile change your mind? Clausen in speedos? Anyone?

How about baseball? Nice story here about a Double-A coach who was killed, leaving a family behind. We only read two pages, but it’s interesting. We’ll save the rest for the subway.

There’s an interesting story brewing in the NBA – AK-47 is ready to give up his contract and head to Russia. Doubt the Jazz would stop him … Baron Davis, seemingly drunk … Isiah Thomas, worse than Don Imus?

Should we post something on Matthew Berry’s fantasy plays of the week? We had Mike & Mike on mute this morning, but glanced at the screen in time to see ESPN’s resident dog owner advise against Edge James because he’s facing the Baltimore Ravens sturdy defense. Man, nothing gets by this guy! Next thing you know, he’s going to advise betting on Buffalo in New England (17 point spread).

As for our NFL bets …

* Colts are a different team on the road, but with Andre Johnson gone, we like Indy -6
* The Jets are currently at -3, and if it goes to -2.5, grab them. Chad’s back!
* Like Tampa -3.5 at home. Jeff Garcia has the most moxie of any QB in the league.
* Saints snap out of their funk at home in a big way. Take them at -4.5.
* Lots of 3 or 3.5 spreads this week (7!) means we’ll tread cautiously. Home teams let us down last week (Carolina, Philly, St. Louis), but the same thing might happen again this week (San Diego, potentially dangerous San Fran and Dallas are all road teams with a chance to win).
