That eery, depressing sound that circled the streets of New York last night you may have heard while the New York Knicks were sticking it to the Los Angeles Lakers had nothing to do with Mike D’Antoni being back in town. It had nothing to do with the NBA at all. Nor did it have anything to do with any professional sports team in New York, not even the locked out Rangers. That sound was the Big East conference dying. And there is nothing more depressing in all of the Northeast right now than that. Yesterday, the remaining seven Catholic schools in the conference (Marquette, Georgetown, St. John’s, Providence, DePaul, Seton Hall and Villanova) agreed that they would leave in unison and either start-up their own conference, or join another conference as a group with the Atlantic-10 as the most logical destination. They followed Notre Dame (ACC), Louisville (ACC), Rutgers (Big Ten), Pittsburgh (ACC), Syracuse (ACC) and West Virginia (Big 12) out the...

Following the conclusion of the final double session for the Houston Texans, former Pro Bowl wide receiver Andre Johnson appeared on ESPN’s First Take via call in from the Texans practice facility. For those able to stomach Skip Bayless and Stephen A. Smith for a couple minutes were treated to a nice interview where the star receiver addressed his team’s expectations, his recent injury history, and his place among the top WRs in the NFL today.

Johnson was first asked about comments made by QB Matt Schaub regarding the Texans “Super Bowl or Bust” mentality for the upcoming season. Johnson stood by Schaub’s statement and acknowledged that as the team’s leader, the rest of the Texans need to believe in Schaub’s words also. 

Smith asked Johnson if there was any added pressure on the offense, particularly him, Schaub, and RB Arian Foster, to perform now that the Texans defense, led by Wade Phillips, was such a formidable unit....

New York Yankees Sign Nicaraguan Prospects Corby McCoy, Luis Garcia

Posted on by in Indianapolis, Kansas City, Louisville, MLB, New York Yankees, Vancouver, Virginia, Weber State  |  Comments are closed

The New York Yankees have signed two Nicaraguan pitching prospects, Corby McCoy and Luis Garcia, reports Ben Badler of Baseball America.

McCoy, 16, signed for $150,000 and is one of Nicaragua's best pitchers. At 6'3", 170 pounds, the young left-hander has an athletic, projectable body. His velocity has ranged from 85-88 mph in the past, but Badler reports McCoy's fastball has touched as high as 91 mph recently. He also has a breaking ball in his arsenal, which is still being developed. 

Garcia, who signed for $50,000, is also a 16 year-old left-hander, but has a larger frame than McCoy at 6'4" and 185 pounds. Like McCoy, Garcia's fastball ranges from 85-88 mph. 

With the signing of McCoy, the Yankees have spent all of their $2.9 million international bonus pool limit. If they sign another top international...
