10:00 AM Looks like the Saints are the real deal after pummeling the Patriots to stay perfect on the season.

9:00 PM Chris Johnson is a very fast man. But Rajon Rondo wants to see for himself. The blog Red's Army reports that the Celtics guard has challenged the Titans RB to a race, with the winner getting $2,000. CJ tweets back: "that's easy money set it up on espn."

8:45 PM We always hear about Cuban baseball players defecting to the U.S., but Cuban umpires? The AP reports that Nelson Diaz arrived in Miami on Sunday with his wife & two daughters. He was to work the 2009 WBC, but Cuban officials said they "didn't trust him".

8:30 PM La Salle University has reached a settlement to pay the family of former football player Preston Plevretes $7.5 million for medical care. Plevretes suffered a serious brain injury during a 2005 game. La Salle dropped its football program in 2007.
