Excerpt: Playing statistics to end of Round 4, 2010 season . Gary Ablett, Junior (born 14 May 1984) is an Australian rules footballer for the Geelong Football Club in the Australian Football League (AFL). A midfielder, 1.82 metres (6 ft 0 in) tall and weighing 85 kilograms (187 lb), Ablett is the eldest son of AFL Hall of Fame member Gary Ablett, Sr. Ablett was selected by Geelong with the 40th overall pick in the 2001 AFL Draft under the father-son rule. Beginning his career as a small forward, Ablett enjoyed early success as part of the club’s 2002 VFL Premiership and 2006 NAB Cupwinning sides. However, since 2007 he has played predominantly as a midfielder and garnered a long list of individual accolades. He is a dual premiership player, has won the Brownlow Medal, the Leigh Matthews Trophy as the AFL Players Association’s Most Valuable Player a record three times, and been selected to three All-Australian sides. He has also won two Carji Greeves Medals, three AFL Coaches Association ‘Champion Player of the Year’ awards, and an Australian Football Media Association Player of the Year award. Gary Ablett, Junior was born to Gary and Sue Ablett in the country town of Modewarre, Victoria. As the eldest boy among three other siblings, Ablett’s childhood coincided with the peak of his father’s footballing career. Along with his brother Nathan, Ablett would regularly attend his father’s training sessions and weekly games. Geelong players regarded them as “barefooted pests in the rooms”, and would often engage in kick-to-kick sessions with both of the boys. Ablett played junior football with the Modewarre Football Club, until he was chosen to play for the Geelong Falcons in the TAC Cup competition in 2000. Ablett’s selection was met with controversy, as … More:

Managers: Harold Bodle $9.8 Purchase includes free access to book updates online and a free trial membership in the publisher’s book club where you can select from more than a million books without charge. Excerpt: Senior club appearances and goalscounted for the domestic league only.* Appearances (Goals) Harold Bodle (4 October 1920 1 January 2005) was an English association footballer who played as an inside left or wing half. He played for Birmingham City in the top flight and for several clubs in the North of England in the lower divisions of the Football League. He was particularly noted for juggling the ball, a skill he claimed to have perfected as a child by repeatedly kicking a small ball against the sideboard at home. Bodle was born in Woodlands, near Doncaster. He played for Doncaster schoolboys before starting work at Silverwood Colliery where he played for the works team. He also played for Ridgehill Athletic and had trials at Doncaster Rovers and Bradford Park Avenue before signing professional forms for Third Division North side Rotherham United in May 1938. His Rotherham career was brief; after nine games in the Football League and just past his 18th birthday Bodle was transferred to First Division Birmingham for the fee of £2,000. His reaction to the move was quoted thus: “It was a total surprise when manager Reg Freeman pulled me aside at the training ground to tell me of The Blues’ interest. I was so excited that when I went back to the training session I lost concentration and went sliding off onto the gravel edge. When I met up with Blues officials later that day I had both my hands bandaged and found it hard to sign the contract!”Bodle played one first-team game for his new club before the outbreak of the Second World War put an end to League football. He made occasional appearances for the club in wartime competition, as well as guesting for Rotherham and Doncaster, for whom he scored 27 goals. He returned to Birmingham to play … More:

However, they managed to create a surprise by drawing 1-1 against Scotland with a late Iraj Danaeifard goal. After the 1979 Revolution, football was somewhat neglected and cast aside.

As the nation’s most elite Summer Collegiate Baseball team, the Goldpanners play their home games at Growden Memorial Park in Fairbanks, AK.

Like other Summer Collegiate Baseball teams, the Alaska Goldpanner of Fairbanks are dedicated and designed to providing minor league level competition for NCAA players that wish to continue on into professional baseball. The Goldpanners operate in a similar manner to a Minor League team: playing nightly in stadiums before fans, using wood bats and minor league specification equipment, and experiencing road trips between games. Like all other summer collegiate players, they are unpaid in order to maintain their NCAA eligibility, and live with host families in the same manner as Single A and Independent League players. The Alaska Goldpanners gained fame worldwide in the early 1960s as runners-up in the 1962 NBC National Championship. The curiosity of being the only team from the Last Frontier endeared them to many in the Lower 48, giving them almost cult status among baseball fans. However, when the Anchorage Pilots were founded in the 1969, they became one of two teams from the state of Alaska. So, officially the team became the “Alaska Goldpanners of Fairbanks” in 1963. Within the ABL, and in TV and newspaper coverage throughout the state they’re referred t… More:

The All American Football League, scheduled to begin play in 2010, is a professional American football league premised on the rule that all of its players had to have a four-year university degree, as employees of the AAFL rather than of the franchises, with the league to pay each player an average compensation of approximately $100,000 to year-round player employees and $50,000 to season-only players to attract the best non-NFL players. The AAFL’s inaugural draft took place on January 26, 2008, though it was effectively voided when the league canceled that season. For its proposed 2008 season, the AAFL established six franchises, all but one of which were located in the Southern United States (Team Michigan being the lone exception). One of the more unusual features of the league was that the teams had no nicknames, being referred to as “Team Florida”, “Team Texas”, etc. The teams, which had hired coaches, drafted players, and contracted with stadiums to host games for 2008 were: … More:

Excerpt: Thomas Henderson “Tommy” Docherty (born 24 April 1928 in Gorbals, Glasgow), commonly known as “The Doc”, is a Scottish former footballer and football manager. Docherty’s football career began when he joined non-League Shettleston Juniors. The turning point in his playing career came in 1946 when he was called up for National Service in the Highland Light Infantry. While completing his National Service, Docherty represented the British Army at football. On demobilisation, Docherty was offered a contract with his beloved Celtic in 1947. However, the young Docherty found first team places hard to come by at Celtic and, in November 1949, after spending just over two years with the club he’d supported as a boy, he joined Preston North End. It was at Preston where he enjoyed the most successful period of his playing career, making over 300 League appearances, and appearing in an FA Cup Final in 1954. At Preston he received the first of his 25 full Scotland international caps. After defying Preston and travelling to the World Cup finals with Scotland, in Sweden in 1958, he left Deepdale that year to join Arsenal. It was at Arsenal where Docherty would make his last regular appearances as a professional footballer, although he subsequently played a few games for Chelsea, retiring in 1962. In February 1961 his dream of becoming a football coach materialised, being offered the post of player-coach of Chelsea. Less than twelve months later, upon Ted Drake’s departure and with the club facing relegation from the top flight, Docherty took over as manager. However, he was unable to keep the club in the First Division and the team was relegated at the end of the 1961-62 season. Never a great tactician, Docherty’s skill was his ability to spot talented play… More:

After a college career at Georgia Institute of Technology, he played point guard professionally from 19912006, most of which was in the National Basketball Association. As a 16-year-old high school sophomore, the LeFrak City, Queens native who attended academic and athletic powerhouse Archbishop Molloy High School in Briarwood, was considered one of the best basketball prospects in America. Collegiate recruiters began scouting Anderson in sixth-grade and he was on the front page of the New York City sports section when he was 14. By the end of his high school career, he was a three-time Parade All-American, a feat not accomplished since Lew Alcindor and the first player to be named All-City four times. In addition, he was a McDonald’s All-American, Gatorade’s high school player of the year and Player of the Year by the New York State Sportswriters Association, and was named New York State Mr. Basketball by the New York State Coaches Organization. He was also named Parade, Naismith, and USA Today player of the year. Despite his coach, Jack Curran, benching him for the first quarter of all of his games during his freshman year at Molloy, Anderson set the all-time state record for scoring in New York, with 2,621 points. This record stood until 2004, when Lincoln High School guard Sebastian Telfair eclipsed the mark late in his senior season. After a long recruiting process, Anderson signed a letter of intent in November 1988 to play at Georgia Tech, selecting the Yellow Jackets over North Carolina, Duke and Syracuse.

Excerpt: Yankee Stadium (1923) – Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The Yankees had played at the Polo Grounds in northern Manhattan since 1913, sharing the venue with the New York Giants. However, relations between the two teams were rocky, with the Giants harboring resentment towards the Yankees. For the 1920 season, the Yankees acquired star slugger Babe Ruth and in his first year with his new team, the Yankees drew 1.3 million fans to the Polo Grounds, outdrawing the Giants. In 1921, the Yankees won their first American League pennant (but lost the then-best-of-nine 1921 World Series to the Giants in eight games, all played at the Polo Grounds). This exacerbated Giants owner Charles Stoneham’s resentment of the Yankees and precipitated his insistence that the Yankees find another place to play their home games. The Giants derisively suggested that the Yankees relocate “to Queens or some other out-of-the-way place.” Main entrance during the 1920sTillinghast L’Hommedieu Huston and Jacob Ruppert, the Yankees’ owners since January 1915, decided to proceed with building their team its own stadium. They did so at considerable financial risk and speculation. Baseball teams typically played in 30,000-seat facilities, but Huston and Ruppert invoked Ruth’s name when asked how the Yankees could justify a ballpark with 60,000 seats. The doubt over the Yankees’ lasting power was amplified by base… More:

The following year provided their first competition against future rival Rhode Island, an opponent that would be played over 100 times.Tragedy struck the team on September 27, 1919 when Gardner Dow died from brain injuries related to a flying tackle that he delivered in a game against New Hampshire. The college would honor Dow by naming the athletic fields after him. These fields would become the home for most of the schools athletic teams for the next three decades. The football team plays on Gardner Dow Athletic Fields in 1920.In 1924, the Aggies celebrated their first undefeated season when they finished with six wins, no losses and two ties.

Excerpt: The Scottish Claymores were an American football team from Scotland. The franchise played in the World League of American Football (later renamed NFL Europe) between 1995 and 2004, alternately playing home games at Murrayfield Stadium, Edinburgh and Hampden Park, Glasgow. In ten seasons of NFL Europe play, the Claymores reached the World Bowl on two occasions, with victory in World Bowl IV but defeat in World Bowl VIII. Their name derives from that of the Claymore, a double-edged sword historically used in Scottish clan warfare. The Claymores experienced several notable swings in fortune during their ten years. Their World Bowl-winning season of 1996 was the league’s first worst-to-first turnaround: having finished 1995 with a 2-8 record and no wins at home, the 1996 Claymores went 7-3 in the regular season and won all their home games. Equally remarkable was the contrast between their first home games of the 2003 and 2004 seasons. In week 1 of the 2003 season, the Claymores defeated the Berlin Thunder 62-31 – the highest scoring game in NFL Europe history – but in 2004 their home opener was a 3-0 defeat at the hands of the Amsterdam Admirals, tying the record for the league’s lowest-scoring game. In 1992, the World League of American Football was put on hold by the NFL, with the intention of rest… More:

He was the oldest player in the NBA at the time of his most recent season. The 7 ft 2 in (2.18 m), 260-pound (120 kg; 19 st) center is one of the greatest shot blockers and defensive players of all time, winning the NBA Defensive Player of the Year Award four times. On January 10, 2007, he surpassed Kareem Abdul-Jabbar as the second most prolific shot blocker in NBA history, behind only Hakeem Olajuwon. He is a member of the Luba ethnic group and speaks English, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Tshiluba and four other African languages. In the second game of the first round of the 2009 NBA playoffs, Mutombo suffered a knee injury that would keep him out for the remainder of the post-season. Soon after the injury, Mutombo announced he had played his last games in the NBA. Mutombo originally intended to become a doctor; he attended Georgetown University on a USAID scholarship. Georgetown Hoyas basketball coach John Thompson recruited him to play basketball. He spoke almost no English when he arrived at Georgetown and studied in the ESL program. He became an excellent college center, continuing Georgetown’s tradition of producing great big men. He was a celebrated shot blocker at Georgetown, setting a team record of twelve blocked shots in a single game. Building on the shot-blocking power of Mutombo and teammate Alonzo Mourning, Georgetown fans created a “Rejection Row” section under the basket, adding a big silhouette of an outstretched hand to a banner for each shot blocked during the game.

From 1984 to 2002, he played in the National Basketball Association (NBA) as a member of the Houston Rockets and Toronto Raptors. He led the Rockets to back-to-back NBA championships in 1994 and 1995. In 2008, he was inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame. Born in Lagos, Nigeria, Olajuwon traveled from his home country to play for the University of Houston. Under Coach Guy Lewis he had a standout career for the Cougars alongside future NBA Hall of Fame player Clyde Drexler, which included three trips to the Final Four. Olajuwon was drafted by the Houston Rockets with the first overall selection of the 1984 NBA Draft, a draft that included Michael Jordan, Charles Barkley, and John Stockton. Olajuwon joined the Houston Rockets and was affectionately known as “Hakeem The Dream” for his grace on and off the court. He combined with the 7 ft 4 in (2.24 m) Ralph Sampson to form a duo dubbed the “Twin Towers”. The two led the Rockets to the 1986 NBA Finals, where they lost in six games to the Boston Celtics. After Sampson was traded to the Golden State Warriors in 1988, Olajuwon became the Rockets’ undisputed leader. He led the league in rebounding twice (1989, 1990) and shot-blocking three times (1990, 1991, 1993).

Excerpt: Bohnanza is a German-style card game of trading and politics, designed by Uwe Rosenberg and released in 1997 by Amigo Spiele in German and by Rio Grande Games in English. It is played with a deck of cards with comical illustrations of eight different types of beans (of varying scarcities), which the players are trying to plant and sell in order to raise money. The principal restriction is that players may only be farming two or three types of bean at once, but they obtain beans of all different types randomly from the deck, and so must engage in trading with the other players to be successful. The original game is for three to six players and takes about one hour to play, but the Rio Grande edition adds alternative rules to allow games for two or seven players. The name is a pun on the words “bonanza” and “Bohne” (German for “bean”). The official English release preserved the name Bohnanza. These beans were added in an expansion in the German edition. In the English edition of the game, the beans were included in the standard set. The English edition of the game changed the Weinbrandbohne (Brandy Bean) into the Wax Bean. In German, “Blaue Bohnen” is slang for bullets, explaining the illustration of the blue bean dressed as a cowboy. In German, green beans are called “Brechbohnen” referring to the verb “brechen” meaning “to break” (“breaking” the beans from the bush in order to harvest them), but “brechen” in German can also mean “to vomit”, explaining the illustration of the vomiting green bean Each player is dealt a hand of cards to start (the exact hand size varies with expansion set and number of players; in the base version it is five cards). Cards in hand must be kept in the order in which they are dealt at all times. Players take turns … More:

Not illustrated. Excerpt: As player As manager Michael Lorri Scioscia (pronounced ; born November 27, 1958 in Morton, Pennsylvania) is a Major League Baseball manager and former catcher. He has been the manager of the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim since the 2000 season. As a player, Scioscia made his major league debut with the Los Angeles Dodgers in 1980. He was selected to two All-Star Games and won two World Series over the course of his 13-year MLB career, which was spent entirely with the Dodgers. He was signed by the San Diego Padres and Texas Rangers late in his career, but never appeared in a major-league game for either team due to injury. After his playing career ended, Scioscia spent several seasons as a minor league manager and major league coach in the Dodgers organization before being hired as the Angels manager after the 1999 season. As a manager, Scioscia led the Angels to their first World Series championship in 2002. He is the Angels’ all-time managerial leader in wins, games managed, and division titles. Scioscia was honored with the official American League Manager of the Year Award in 2002 and 2009. Mike Scioscia was drafted by the Los Angeles Dodgers in the 1st round (19th overall pick) of the 1976 amateur draft, debuting for the Dodgers in 1980 (replacing Steve Yeager) and went on to play 12 years for the team. Dodger manager Tommy Lasorda helped lobby Scioscia to sign with the Dodgers after the team drafted him out of Springfield High School, a public school located in the suburbs of Philadelphia in 1976. Scioscia immediately made himself invaluable to the Dodgers by making the effort to learn Spanish in order to better communicate with rookie sensation Fernando Valenzuela in 1981. Scioscia went to the San Diego Padres in 1993… More:

Chapters: Hippodrome, Chariot Racing, Circus, Circus of Maxentius, Porphyrius the Charioteer, Charioteer of Delphi, Scorpus, Circus Maximus, Hierocles, Gaius Appuleius Diocles, Circus Games Mosaic, Ysplix. Excerpt: Chariot racing (Greek: , Latin: ) was one of the most popular ancient Greek, Roman and Byzantine sports. Chariot racing was often dangerous to both driver and horse as they frequently suffered serious injury and even death, but generated strong spectator enthusiasm. In the ancient Olympic Games, as well as the other Panhellenic Games, the sport was one of the most important equestrian events. In the Roman form of chariot racing, teams represented different groups of financial backers and sometimes competed for the services of particularly skilled drivers. These teams became the focus of intense support among spectators, and occasional disturbances broke out between followers of different factions. The conflicts sometimes became politicized, as the sport began to transcend the races themselves and started to affect society overall. This helps explain why Roman and later Byzantine emperors took control of the teams and appointed many officials to oversee them. The sport faded in importance after the fall of Rome in the West, surviving only for a time in the Byzantine Empire, where the traditional Roman factions continued to play a prominent role for some time, gaining influence in political matters. Their rivalry culminated in the Nika riots, which marked the gradual decline of the sport. It is unknown exactly when chariot racing began, but it may have been as old as chariots themselves. It is known from artistic evidence on pottery that the sport existed in the Mycenaean world, but the first literary reference to a chariot race is the one de… More:

Excerpt: Ludi (Latin plural) were public games held for the benefit and entertainment of the Roman people (populus Romanus). Ludi were held in conjunction with, or sometimes as the major feature of, Roman religious festivals, and were also presented as part of the cult of state. The earliest ludi were horse races in the circus (ludi circenses). Animal exhibitions with mock hunts (venationes) and theatrical performances (ludi scaenici) also became part of the festivals. Days on which ludi were held were public holidays, and no business could be conducted “remarkably,” it has been noted, “considering that in the Imperial era more than 135 days might be spent at these entertainments” during the year. Although their entertainment value may have overshadowed religious sentiment at any given moment, even in late antiquity the ludi were understood as part of the worship of the traditional gods, and the Church Fathers thus advised Christians not to participate in the festivities. The singular form ludus, “game, sport” or “play” has several meanings in Latin. The plural is used for “games” in a sense analogous to the Greek festivals of games, such as the Panhellenic Games. The late-antique scholar Isidore of Seville, however, classifies the forms of ludus as gymnicus (“athletic”), circensis (“held in the circus,” that is, the chariot races), gladiatorius (“gladiatorial”) and scaenicus (“theatrical”). The relation of gladiatorial games to the ludi is complex; see Gladiator. Terracotta plaque (1st century) depicting a venatio, or human-animal blood sportOriginally, all ludi seem to have been votive offerings (ludi votivi), staged as the fulfillment of a vow to a deity whose favor had been sought and evidenced. In 366 BC, the Ludi Romani became the first games … More:

Excerpt: Fluxx is a card game, played with a specially-designed deck. It is different from most other card games, in that the rules and the conditions for winning are altered throughout the game, via cards played by the players. Fluxx was created by Andrew Looney and first published by Looney Labs in 1996. The game was successful and was licensed a year later to Iron Crown Enterprises (ICE) for wider distribution. ICE went bankrupt two years later and Looney Labs has resumed publication and distribution. Looney Labs produced a revised version of the original game in 2002. Amigo Spiele, a German game company, licensed a German language version of Fluxx in 2003. Similarly, Hobby Japan licensed a Japanese language version in 2005. The game starts out with just two basic rules, presented on a card placed in the play area at the start of the game: each player draws one card, and plays one card during his turn. In addition to this Basic Rules card, there are four types of cards in the core game, New Rule, Action, Keeper, and Goal cards: Fluxx Blanxx are semi-blank cards used to create custom cards to change gameplay further, and are sold in packs of five. Older Fluxx Blanxx booster packs included one booster card for Chrononauts (titled Beatles Reunion Album), a cover card, and a “microcatalog” card advertising other Looney Labs products. Current packs include only the cover card, but also include a new Creeper blank card in addition to one each of the other four card types. The most recent edition of Fluxx, version 4.0, contains 100 cards, as compared to 84 cards in version 3.1 and 81 in the promotional deck.

Excerpt: 2011 The 2010 ANZ Championship season is the third season of the ANZ Championship, commencing on 20 March. The 2010 season started two weeks earlier than in previous years to accommodate the 2010 Commonwealth Games in Delhi, in which netball is a core sport. 69 matches will be played over 17 weeks, including an initial 14-week round-robin stage, followed by a three-week finals stage. Several rule changes have also been implemented in the 2010 season. The grand final will be played on 11 July. The format of the 2010 season is identical to those of previous seasons. During the round-robin stage, played over 14 weeks, each team plays every other team once, and will play teams from their home country a second time. Teams also have one bye somewhere between Rounds 610. Week 4 of the round-robin stage will be the designated Rivalry Round, in which all games will be trans-Tasman match-ups. The top four teams from the round-robin stage will progress to the finals stage, played over three weeks in a Page-McIntyre System. Round 14 matchups in 2009 were identical to round 14 matchups in 2010, and round 4 matchups in 2009 were identical to round 11 matchups in 2010. Also, for rivalry round, round 13 matchups in 2009 were identical to round 4 matchups in 2010. In addition, in trans-Tasman matches the home and away teams are switched around from 2009 to ensure that the teams get to play home and away games over two years: e.g., the Thunderbirds hosted the Magic in round 14 in 2009, but the same game in 2010 will be hosted by the Magic. The 2010 season sees the first use of the assistance package for teams that finish in the bottom two placings of the competition ladder for two consecutive seasons.

Excerpt: The Cleveland Gladiators are an arena football franchise based in Cleveland, Ohio which will play in the new Arena Football League for its inaugural 2010 season. The franchise was previously a member of the defunct original Arena Football League and was originally based in East Rutherford, New Jersey and later in Las Vegas, Nevada. The New Jersey Red Dogs entered the Arena Football League in 1997, along with the Nashville Kats and the New York CityHawks. Their ownership group, which was led by New Jersey radio entrepreneur E. Burke Ross, also included several ex-NFL players, such as Joe Morris, Carl Banks, and Harry Carson. The Red Dogs played at Continental Airlines Arena in the East Rutherford, New Jersey. The AFL’s intention was to add only New Jersey and Nashville for 1997. However, well after the awarding of the Red Dogs and Kats franchises, the owners of Madison Square Garden in New York City requested a franchise of their own, and the league granted this request. And so the CityHawks also began play in 1997. This had an impact on the Red Dogs, in that the league then prevented the Red Dogs from advertising in New York. While North Jersey itself is very populous in its own right, the Red Dogs had hoped to be the team for the entire New York metropolitan area. Despite this setback, the Red Dogs management built a good team, which opened its history in memorable fashion. The team won 8 of its first 9 games, including a victory in their inaugural game on a last-second game-winning field goal, a thrilli… More:

Excerpt: Christopher O’Brien, was a painting and decorating contractor as well as a pro football franchise owner. He is mostly known as the owner of the Chicago Cardinals, (later known as the St. Louis Cardinals, and now the Arizona Cardinals) and is known as the Father of Professional Football in Chicago,. O’Brien was also a co-founder of the American Professional Football Association (renamed the National Football League in 1922) by representing the Cardinals (then called the Racine Cradinals) at the September 17, 1920, league meeting at Ralph Hay’s Hupmobile dealership in Canton, Ohio. In 1898, O’Brien organized the Morgan Athletic Club. He and his brother Pat also played on the squad. Chris then changed the clubs home games to nearby Normal Field, prompting the new name the Normals. That same year O’Brien gave the team it’s longstanding moniker when he, finding a bargain, bought used football jerseys from the nearby University of Chicago. Because the jerseys were faded from the maroon color worn by the University, O’Brien declared, “That’s not maroon, it’s Cardinal red!” Football in the Chicago-area was mostly amateur in the early 1900’s, with opponents almost impossible to book, let alone find. This caused O’Brien to suspend the team from 1906 until 1913. By 1917, O’Brien was able to buy new uniforms as well as hire a coach, Marshall Smith. That year the Cardinals won the Chicago City Championship. However World War I forced the Cardinals to suspend operations again in 1918. However the after the war, the Cardinals were reorganized and began play under the name the Rac… More:

Excerpt: Joseph Henry “Joe” Garagiola, Sr. (born February 12, 1926) is an American former catcher in Major League Baseball who later became an announcer and television host, popular for his colorful personality. He was well known for being one of the regular panelists of The Today Show for many years. Garagiola was born in St. Louis, Missouri. He grew up on Elizabeth Avenue in an Italian-American neighborhood in St. Louis known as The Hill, just a few doors down from his childhood friend and competitor, Yogi Berra. (That block was subsequently renamed “Hall of Fame Place”.) When Berra and Garagiola were both teenagers, almost all pro scouts rated Garagiola as the better baseball prospect, although Berra had a Hall of Fame career, and Garagiola has always respected Berra’s ability. About growing up living next to Berra, Garagiola once said, “Not only was I not the best catcher in the Major Leagues, I wasn’t even the best catcher on my street!” Garagiola was signed at age 16 by the St. Louis Cardinals organization. At 17 he remains the youngest player to play in Columbus Red Birds (now Columbus Clippers) history. Garagiola made his major league debut in 1946. As a rookie in 1946, in his only World Series appearance, Garagiola batted a 6-for-19 in five games, including a Game 4 where he went 4-for-5 with 3 RBIs. By contrast, Ted Williams went only 5-for-25 in the same series, which was also Williams’ only World Series appearance. On September 11, 1947, Joe Garagiola and Jackie Robinson were involved in an incident at home plate. Garagiola stepped on Robinsons foot and the two started arguing. Umpire Beans Reardon held back Garagiola while Robinson clapped. The incident was later part of a childrens book titled In the Year of the Boar and Jackie Robinson…. More:

Excerpt: The Singapore Slingers are an Asian basketball team that formerly competed in the Australian National Basketball League. They were the first – and so far the only – Asia-based club to compete in the NBL when they joined at the start of the 2006/07 season. The Slingers play their home games at the Singapore Indoor Stadium (SIS). In 2008, the club left the NBL and currently compete in the “Singapore Challenge Series”. In this series the Slingers compete against a range of teams from the Philippines, China, Indonesia, India and Australia. The Slingers are one of the inaugural teams that began competition in the ASEAN Basketball League in October, 2009. The franchise was known as the Canberra Cannons from 1979 to 2003, winning 3 championships in 1983, 1984 and 1988. The Cannons begun to struggle and relocated to Newcastle for three seasons and were known as the Hunter Pirates for the 03-04, 04-05 and 05-06 seasons. The team again relocated to Singapore before the start of the 2006-07 season. However, they also played occasional home games in Newcastle. The club was the brainchild of NBL stalwart Bob Turner, the Slingers’ CEO. The NBL believed the club would open the league to wider audiences and greater revenue. Due to the distance involved the team agreed to cover all travel costs of teams who played them in Singapore. However, the club had only averaged crowds of only 3500 at its home games during the last season. The National Basketball League announced on July 29, 2008 that the Singapore Slingers had decided to withdraw from the competition permanently due to the dramatic increase in inter… More:

Excerpt: Atari 8-bit computer, cassette recorder or disk drive Eastern Front (1941) is a computer game for the Atari 8-bit series created by Chris Crawford in 1981. Recreating the German invasion of Russia during World War II, Eastern Front covers the historical area of operations during the 1941-1942 period. The player commands German units at the corps level and must contend with the computer-control Russians, as well as terrain, weather, supplies and even unit morale and fatigue. It is widely considered to be one of the first computer wargames that could compete with paper-and-pencil games in terms of depth of play. According to Crawford, it is the first wargame to feature a smooth-scrolling map. Unless otherwise noted, this section refers to the original game manual, available hereEastern Front puts the user in control of the Germans, in white, while the computer plays the Russians, in red. Units are represented as boxes for armored corps or cavalry, and crosses for infantry, an attempt to replicate conventional military symbols given the low resolution. The screen shows only a small portion of the entire map at one time, smooth-scrolling around it when the joystick-controlled cursor reaches the edges of the screen. The map covers the area from just north of Leningrad at the top to Sevastopol at the bottom, and from Warsaw on the left to just east of Stalingrad on the right. The terrain is varied, including flatland, forests, mountains, rivers and swamps, each with their own effects on movement. Cities are also displayed, and are a major source of “victory points”, the player’s score. Most user input is via the joystick, which is used in place of a mouse in selecting units and entering orders. The game is modal, switching between an order entry m… More:

Chapters: Austin Peay Governors Basketball Players, Fly Williams, Trenton Hassell, Bubba Wells, Percy Howard, Barry Sumpter, Dunn Center. Not illustrated. Excerpt: James “Fly” Williams (Born February 18, 1953) is a retired American professional basketball player. Born in Brownsville, Brooklyn, New York City, he attended Madison High School, where he initially was interested in playing baseball. He was a pitcher, but was advised that he had become too tall to remain competitive in that sport. His initial introduction to basketball did not go well, but he eventually made the adjustment to the new game. His ability to play basketball came from his frequent participation in street basketball games. He played with some of New Yorks finest street players such as World B. Free and Earl “the Goat” Manigault. When the games eventually ended, he would go out in search of more opportunities to play basketball. Williams dominated the sport of basketball at Madison High School in the early 1970s. By his freshman year, he was 6 5, with outstanding moves, a fantastic shot, a terrific knowledge of the back board action, and could play the crowds. Williams got the nickname Fly from his flamboyant wardrobe and playing style. However, due to his poor attendance at Madison High, Williams completed high school at a prep school, Glen Springs Academy, in Lakemont, New York. The book “Heaven is a Playground,” discusses, among other things, the education of Fly Williams. After Williams completed high school, he was recruited by an assistant basketball coach, Leonard Hamilton, to attend Austin Peay State University in Clarksville, Tennessee. Williams arrived on campus in 1972. He was greeted by a reception which included a sky-writing demonstration which spelled out his name… More:

Excerpt: The 2005 season saw the Australian national football team playing twelve senior matches, in what proved to be a difinitive season for the recent history of the men’s senior national side. The games included participating in the 2005 FIFA Confederations Cup in Germany , and a dramatic end to a 34 year absence from the FIFA World Cup , by qualifying via penalty shoot-out for the 2006 FIFA World Cup. After six years in charge of the Australian side, a disappointing 2005 FIFA Confederations Cup campaign saw coach Frank Farina replaced by the more experienced Dutchman Guus Hiddink , who was appointed to try to see Australia qualify for the World Cup finals, and take them through that campaign should they succeed. Australia v South Africa Australia kicked off their 2005 season with an away friendly against southern hemisphere rivals South Africa. Coach Frank Farina said he wanted the team to treat it as an away FIFA World Cup qualifier, to get a feel for the campaign later in the year. Once again, European-based stars such as Harry Kewell and Mark Viduka were absent. The match was disappointing and interrupted by a severe electrical storm which forced both sides to try to play a long ball game, and the match soon stagnated into a stalemate.

It is estimated by respected footballing statistics page RSSSF that Bican scored around 800 goals in all competitive matches, not including friendly games. This would make him the all-time most prolific scorer in football history known to date. He was a member of the Austrian Wunderteam of the 1930s and was the season’s highest scorer in the whole of Europe on five separate occasions. Bican had the ability to play with both feet, he also had considerable pace and was able to run 100 metres in 10.8 seconds, which was as fast as many sprinters of the time.

Ludmila was Viennese Czech and Franti ek came from Sedlice in Southern Bohemia . Josef’s father Franti ek was a footballer who played for Hertha Vienna.

However, Franti ek was to die at the age of just 30 in 1921 because he refused an operation to treat a kidney injury sustained in a football match. His mother worked in a restaurant kitchen. The family’s poverty meant that Bican had to play football without any shoes, which helped him hone his ball control skills. Bican attended the Jan Amos Komenský school, a Czech school in Vienna. Four years after his father’s death in 1925, twelve-year old Bican started to play for the Hertha Vienna junior team. When he was 18, Bican was spotted by Rapid Vienna , who were a big club in the city at the time.Club career When Bican first joined Rapid, he received 150 schillings , but, by the age of 20, Rapid wanted to keep him so much that they paid him 600

Originally drafted 12th overall by the Chicago Black Hawks in the 1981 NHL Entry Draft, he also played briefly for the Pittsburgh Penguins and Buffalo Sabres in the latter stages of his NHL career.

Not illustrated. Excerpt: As player As manager Lawrence Robert Bowa (born December 6, 1945 in Sacramento, California) is a former middle infielder, playing mainly as a shortstop, and manager in Major League Baseball who played primarily for the Philadelphia Phillies. He is currently the third-base coach of the Los Angeles Dodgers. Bowa was born on Sacramento, California, the son of Paul Bowa, a former minor-league infielder and manager in the St. Louis Cardinals farm system. While at C. K. McClatchy High School, Bowa tried out but never made the school’s baseball team. After graduation, Bowa went to Sacramento City College where he started, and was expected to go in the MLB Draft, but didn’t. The Philadelphia Phillies were the only Major League team interested in Bowa. They sent a local scout, Eddie Bockman to watch Bowa play in a doubleheader, only for Bowa to be thrown out of the game for arguing. Borkman had a winter league team in the area and offered Bowa a chance to play. Bowa played well and signed with the Phillies for a $2,000 bonus. Characterized by his “soft” hands, strong arm, and fiery personality, he won two Gold Glove Awards and led the National League in fielding percentage six times, then a league record. He retired with the NL record for career games at shortstop (2222) and the Major League records for fielding average in a career (.980) and a single season (.991, in 1979), and was also among the career leaders in assists (sixth, 6857) and double plays (fourth, 1265); his records have since been broken, though he retains the NL mark for career fielding average.
