Touchin' all the bases
What a weekend in the collegiate and professional sports world. So, what better way to run through it than with an A to Z of the first weekend in October? Alabama Crimson Tide end the longest home winning streak in the nation as they beat the Florida Gators in "The Swamp" after a wacky display of kicking. Brett Hull of the Dallas Stars gets pissed off at Anaheim defenseman Ruslan Salei's hit on Mike Modano. Cincinnati Reds plummet to destruction at the worst time of the year -not a moral victory. Dallas Cowboys give the Arizona Cardinals a lesson or two in how to play the game of football. East Carolina's football team is off to its best start in 23 years after a win over Army. Fair-weather fans. Where are the Cardinal fans? Hiding somewhere, but, where? Guerrero brothers, Vladamir and Wilton, set the record for most RBI's in a game by brothers with 10. Home Run Race Part II, McGwire prevails again. Who is Roger Maris anyway? Indiana Hoosiers beat Illinois in Bloomington as Antwan Randle-El puts in his application for the Heisman in 2000. Jets beat the Broncos in a battle of the fallen. Last year's Super Bowl teams, the Broncos and Falcons, are 0-8 combined. Kelvin Cato was the biggest name the Rockets got for Pippen. Lubbock, Tex. goes crazy as Texas Tech pulls off the amazing upset over Texas A&M. Mojo is risin' in Queens as the Mets get their game on once again. National Hockey League opens during one of the biggest weekends in sports. Offsides. The worst penalty to get when the opposing team misses the extra point. Right Florida? Pippen traded after calling "Big Chuck" a big fat boy. Barkely will never win a championship anyway. Q. Q? You think of a word for Q. Ron Dayne proves he is a Heisman candidate once again as the Badgers stomp the Bucks' in Columbus. Shane Matthews of the Chicago Bears beats Ditka with seven seconds left. Terry Glenn of New England racks up 214 yards receiving in the Patriots' 19-7 victory over the hapless Browns. UCLA watches its Rose Bowl hopes go by as ASU stuns the Bruins. Volunteers of Tennessee play through the adversity and shut out Auburn. Warrick of Florida State. Is there anyone better in college football right now? Obviously it isn't Drew Brees. Xtra points. Florida would sure love to have one right about now. Y is the Pac-10 so bad this year? Stanford loses to San Jose State! Something's wrong with this picture. Zzzzzz's. What I was getting while hearing about Sosa/McGwire Part II.
