Cleveland Browns wide receiver Dante Stallworth may be headed to jail for quite a while. The receiver will be charged with DUI manslaughter on Thursday, April 2nd. Stallworth is expected to surrender himself to the court that same day. Stallworth faces a maximum of 15 years in prison.
Stallworth who rounded a corner and hit a construction worker who was heading home after his shift early on the morning on March 14th. Stallworth was well above the state of Florida's legal limit of 0.08, the blood alcohol content was 0.12 for the star receiver.
Stallworth had signed a hefty contract of 7 years 35 million before the start of the 2008-2009 season.
This could possibly be the end of Dante Stallworth's career in football. I'm sure Cleveland has no choice but to void the rest of his contract. Be prepared for many public apologies and lots of community service hours to come from Dante Stallworth.

Calipari Heading To The Bluegrass State
ESPN.com reports John Calipari has announced he's leaving his Memphis basketball head coaching job and accepting the Kentucky Wildcats basketball head coaching vacancy.
The Kentucky Wildcats must have all the money in the world. John Calipari said to make him an offer he couldn't refuse, and 3 days after paying Billy Gillispie 6 million to hit the road, that is exactly what Kentucky did.
The contract is the richest contract in college basketball history. The numbers are staggering. 8 years 31.65 million. Kentucky also had to give Memphis $200,000 dollars to buyout Calipari's current contract. It gets better, Calipari also received a 2.5 million dollar signing bonus for becoming a Wildcat.
I said on a recent post regarding Kentucky on who the man to be was...the man is whoever the head coach is at that school. It doesn't matter if you're vacating the position, or filling it.

Sheffield Released By Tigers
MLB.com reports that the Tigers have released veteran outfielder Gary Sheffield.
With the addition of outfielder Josh Anderson from Atlanta yesterday the Tigers really didn't Gary Sheffield anymore.
Josh Anderson seems to be the 4th or 5th outfielder now, after all-stars Curtis Granderson and Magglio Ordonez. Ryan Raburn will play left field and Marcus Thames (now that they will keep him) will be the big bat off the bench.

North Carolina and Michigan State Punch Their Final Four Tickets
The final four is set:
Michigan State
UConn
Villanova
North Carolina
Michigan State dominated the 2nd half of play against Louisville Sunday.
North Carolina hit their stride early and left Oklahoma in their dust. Oklahoma never led in the entire game.
Both teams today posted double digit wins.
Is anyone else's bracket done for? I know mine is. I have one team in The Final Four, and that one team, I do not have in the championship game on April 6th.

Rebounds Play A Big Part For UConn
UConn's size proved to be too much for Missouri. The game was close throughout but the edge of UConn's 45 rebounds was all they needed. Missouri only pulled down 26 rebounds. Missouri had no answer for UConn's big men Jeff Adrien and Hasheem Thabeet who pulled down 10 and 13 rebounds, respectively.
Keep dancing UConn.
Bon Voyage Missouri and great season. It wasn't a complete wash of a season, they do have the 2008-2009 Big 12 Tournament trophy for their mantle.
