STEELERS QB BIG Ben ROETHLISBERGER has a FRACTURED Right THUMB on his throwing hand but the INJURY couldn't have come at a better time as the STEELERS go into their BYE WEEK. As for BIG BEN missing any time.....the TOUGHEST QB on SUNDAYS won't miss a SUNDAY trust me. The STEELERS won't play again until NOVEMBER 27th at ARROWHEAD.

The NBA Players have decided to seek LEGAL ACTION and the NBA has cancelled GAMES up to DECEMBER 15th and as of right now the SHOTS are getting ugly as the COMMISH STERN has took some on the PLAYERS and BILLY HUNTER. The NBAPA many thought should have took it to court in the SUMMER but has waited until now and their is a SENSE of EGO and POWER going on within negotiations and it is getting ugly.

Can the NBA afford to lose a WHOLE SEASON at this point?...NO...But will the PLAYERS do it to protect what they have BUILT UP?...you DARN RIGHT. Is it the RIGHT THING to do at this point?...DON'T KNOW....the BLUEDUDE will keep you posted but it doesn't look good on any fronts right now.

OHIO STATE Senior Guard/Forward Will BUFORD of TOLEDO OHIO is about to put himself in RARE COMPANY as he has a chance to pass the BUCKEYES All-Time Leading Scorer..the MENACE..Dennis HOPSON. Now that is putting some points up.

The KENTUCKY WILDCATS Men's Basketball Team has an interesting trek after their game tonight vs ROCK CHALK JAYHAWK in MSG they will stay in NY CITY to visit the 911 Memorial WEDNESDAY. Then they will head to BRISTOL CT the HOME of ESPN Networks Studio and take a tour there and have practice as on the ESPN CAMPUS as well as a late LUNCH/DINNER. BIG TIME College Basketball..nothing like it.
