Argentina, Nigeria, Korea Republic, Greece
Germany 0 Argentina 1 in Munich
Diego Maradona's Argentina warmed up for this year's World Cup with an impressive 1-0 win in Munich courtesy of NFL jerseys Gonzalo Higuain's goal on the stroke of half-time. The skilful Angel Di Maria was outstanding too.
The under-pressure Maradona commented: "The Argentine public can rest assured that we have the players for the World Cup, we just need time to work together. We're alive, we know what we're doing on the pitch.”s
Nigeria 5 DR Congo 2 in Abuja
New Nigeria boss Lars Lagerback watched from the stands as a mostly locally-based squad ripped apart the Democratic Republic of Congo 5-2. Osas Idehen grabbed a brace, while European-based pair Victor Obinna and Peter Utaka chipped in with goals.
Lagerback said afterwards: “It was a good game. I saw some good players that could go to South Africa at the summer. My job has started. I will continue to shop around and see how a formidable team can emerge before the World Cup.”
Cote d'Ivoire 0 Korea Republic 2 in London
Korea produced an excellent display in their dress rehearsal for their World Cup match with Nigeria, defeating African side Cote d'Ivoire 2-0 in London. Returning national team member Lee Dong-Gook was the big story after producing a fine early volleyed goal.
Korea boss Huh Jung-Moo said: "We played very well and it is a good win for us but there is a lot of work still to do before the World Cup. We are not meeting again until May now but I will give the players homework to do on our opponents.”
Greece 0 Senegal 2 in Volos
Euro 2004 winners Greece were stunned 2-0 in their homeland by African upstarts Senegal. The Greeks' display was disjointed and their World Cup plans have been setback by the loss which occurred after Senegal netted twice in the last 20 minutes.
Greece boss Otto Rehhagel admitted: "We have a lot to do. I just found out that the Korea Republic defeated Ivory Coast 2-0 and that goes to show how, if we are going to survive our World Cup group, we will have to work harder."

Italian Serie A
Italian veteran Luca Toni struck a second-half winner which sees AS Roma move within a point of leaders Inter, after a 2-1 victory over the Nerazzurri. Inter's injury-hit city rivals AC Milan, though, blew the chance to move within a point of the leaders after an unconvincing 1-1 draw with battling Lazio. NFL jerseys
In the race for Champions League football, Palermo kept up their good form with Fabrizio Miccoli hitting a hat-trick in their 3-1 victory over Bologna. Napoli also won, while Juventus survived an attack on their team bus from their fans before beating Atalanta 2-1 to stay in sixth ahead of Sampdoria.
Down the wrong end, Lazio's draw with Milan means they are five points ahead of the drop zone in 16th. 17th-placed Udinese lost 4-1 at Fiorentina to keep them nervous, but the bottom three of Atalanta, Siena and Livorno aren't doing enough to suggest they can survive.

The Premier League Title Race Isn't Over
Chelsea's 1-0 victory over Bolton on Tuesday night extended their English Premier League lead to four points from second-placed Manchester United with four games to play. NFL jerseys So is the title race over?
In short, no. Chelsea don't have a simple final four matches and despite United's recent form slip (minus Wayne Rooney, of course) they'll be sure to push until the end.
And then there's Arsenal too, who can close to within three points of the leaders with victory ove

2008 AFC West Overview
San Diego Chargers
Can the San Diego Chargers make it to the Super Bowl? One man will most likelySoccer jerseys determine that—LaDainian Tomlinson. As Tomlinson's health goes so too will the fortunes of his team. It's that simple.
Denver Broncos
Over the past two years, the Denver Broncos have let too many good players go, making them an unstable team. Although the offense has been improved, the Broncos are still not good enough to beat the elite NFL teams.
Kansas City Chiefs
The Kansas City Chiefs will continue to be a team plagued by inconsistency. Coach Herm Edwards is rebuilding the club. But neither quarterbacks Damon Huard nor Brodie Croyle look to be the answer in the signal calling spot. Expect a sub-par season from this club.
Oakland Raiders
NFL icon Al Davis still owns and runs the Oakland Raiders, and that's not good. With a patchwork approach, Davis keeps the team on life support. QB JaMarcus Russel will finally have some pass catchers to which to throw. One big question is can Russel run an offense or does he need more seasoning?
Final Analysis
The AFC West is pretty much a one-team division. The Chargers will run away with the crown and, depending upon their ground attack, could run away with even more. Everyone else is looking forward to 2009.
Sunday, August 24, 2008 -- The San Diego Chargers should dominate the AFC West.
This is a division in which both Oakland and Kansas City look to post losing records and Denver will win less than 10 games. Almost by default, the crown goes to the Chargers.
2008 Finish and Record
1) San Diego Chargers (13- 3)
2) Denver Broncos (9-7)
3) Kansas City Chiefs (7-9)
4) Oakland Raiders (6-10)

Eastern Conference – Boston Celtics
Say what? The Boston Celtics may have all sorts of name value in basketball betting circles, but in terms of actual value they’ve been limping as much as their aging stars. Boston’s recent 3-7 ATS record in regular season play has made them a distant memory in basketball betting, and many have written them off as first-round fodder for the playoffs.
Don’t be fooled. The Celtics are a veteran team, and are just two seasons removed from reigning supreme as NBA Champions in 2008. They’ve made it clear that their number-one priority for this season has been to get to the playoffs healthy. Not as a top-seed. Not as a scary, dominant opponent. They just wanted to get there healthy. soccer jerseys
Paul Pierce (32), Ray Allen (34) and Kevin Garnett (33) may all be reaching the ends of their careers, the Boston Three Party is surrounded by more talent than seems fair. Aside from Kendrick Perkins and Rajon Rondo, the Celtics still have Nate Robinson, Glen Davis and Marquis Daniels coming off the bench.
Granted, this season has been an absolute embarrassment for the Celtics’ fans. But Doc Rivers and company have perhaps lulled everyone in to doubting them by playing possum. Getting to the playoffs healthy is immensely difficult considering how old the Celtics are, and how rough and tumble the Eastern Conference became this year.
Well, they’ve accomplished priority one – getting KG to the playoffs without putting to much wear and tear on his knees. You’ll know by Game 2 of their first-round series if they’ve been laying low during the regular season. The money I am betting in the BetUS sportsbook says that they have been.

NFC Division Playoffs: Eagles Vs. Giants
Saturday, January 10, 2009 -- The Philadelphia Eagles will travel to Giants stadium to meet the New York club at 1 PM on Sunday, January 11. The Eagles are soccer jerseys
hot off their 24- 16 Wild-Card victory over the Minnesota Vikings. The New York Giants, who won the NFC East this year, are coming off a bye week.
Team Stats
The Eagles have a solid defense that during the regular-season allowed an average of Soccer jerseys
just 18 PPG while the team scored 26 PPG. Against the Vikings last week, Philadelphia was close on the heels of both numbers, coming in, as they did in the 16-game season, at plus-eight in PF/PA..
The New York football Giants, like the Eagles, held opponents to 18 PPG this year and scored an average of NBA Jerseys
27 PPG, making them plus-nine, which was one point better than Philadelphia. The Giants held teams to under 100 yards per game rushing. Their secondary is not as strong, having allowed almost 200 yards per contest.
Personnel
For the Eagles, the question is will running back Brian Westbrook be ready to go? Westbrook was instrumental in the club’s success last week and in NBA jerseys the regular-season. QB Donovan McNabb is on a mission to prove his worth and his favorite target, rookie DeSean Jackson, is a talented pass catcher.
When the Giants run, they are tough to stop. Brandon Jacobs and Derrick Ward are two of Ugg Boots
the best in the NFL as each man had 1,000-plus yard seasons this year. Jacobs has been nursing an injury but should be ready to run after a week of rest. Eli Manning put in a solid season but needs to keep away from the sack.
Keys to the Game
Philadelphia
*Play tough defense, especially versus the run and in pressuring Manning.
*Exploit the talents of Westbrook as much as you can.
*McNabb must be close to Cheap Ugg Boots
flawless, hopefully he’ll play loose.
New York
*Eli Manning must continue to play mistake-free.
*Run, run, run and pass and run, run, run more.
*Wear down Westbrook.
My Pick:the Eagles by three.
