Connor McDavid injures shoulder against Flyers


Edmonton Oilers rookie phenom Connor McDavid left Tuesday night's game against the Philadelphia Flyers with a suspected shoulder injury that will keep him out of the lineup "long term," according to head coach Todd McLellan. McLellan confirmed that McDavid suffered an upper-body injury that will take time to heal. McDavid, the 18-year-old phenom Edmonton selected first overall in June, slammed into the boards in a scary collision. His arm was positioned awkwardly and it looks like he jammed his left shoulder. McDavid immediately left the game and was favoring his left arm. McDavid left the ice favouring his left shoulder. He was seen wearing a sling in the hallway behind the dressing room and did not return for the third period.

Dallas Cowboys RB Lance Dunbar leaves game with leg injury


Dallas Cowboys running back Lance Dunbar was carted off the field with an apparent left knee injury Sunday. Dunbar hurt his knee during the second half of the Cowboys game against the New Orleans Saints. He was helped off the field, not putting any weight on his left leg, before heading to the locker room on a cart with a towel over his head. Dunbar was having a terrific night on the ground with three rushes for 54 yards. Unfortunately, his night looks to be over after that. Early on in the 3rd quarter, Dunbar went to receive a kick but had his knee buckle as he tried returning the ball. He would go down in a ton of pain. Darren McFadden replaced Dunbar as the Cowboys' kickoff returner. But the bigger loss for the Cowboys is what Dunbar gives them in the run game and as a receiver out of the backfield. Dunbar had a 45-yard run to the right side on the second play of Sunday's game against the Saints.

Floyd Mayweather Defeats Andre Berto


Heavily favored Floyd Mayweather Jr. defeated Andre Berto in what could be the last fight of his career. The boxers went 12 rounds but there was no upset, with Mayweather winning by decision at the MGM Grand Garden in Las Vegas. Though the hype for the fight had been subdued throughout the week, Mayweather has stated the bout would be the last of his career. He reiterated his intention to retire after the fight, Mayweather is definitely the aggressor early on with several left jabs. Berto keeps grabbing his trunks with his left hand, not sure if that is a quirk or not. Not much action in the first round as Berto was being very cautious. Berto finally looks to be pushing the action at the start of the round. Mayweather is consistently evading majority of Berto's shots. Better round for Berto. Mayweather lands a good right to the face. Berto just cannot figure Mayweather out, he can't find a way to land many punches at all. The last 20 seconds of the round has had the most action of the fight so far. Both guys landed some punches, He also retained his undefeated streak, as Mayweather has now managed to tie the 49-0 record set by Rocky Marciano. Going into the fight, Mayweather claimed this would be his final bout, and it’s a claim he stuck to in his post-fight interview, as he addressed concerns that he’d injured his hand past the halfway point of the fight. “It doesn’t matter if I hurt my left hand and my right hand, my career is over,” Mayweather said, before going on to explain why he’s walking away from the sport of boxing. “You got to know when to hang it up. I think it’s my time for me to hang it up.” Is this it for Mayweather? We'll see. He seems set to tie Rocky Marciano at 49-0. Will he go for 50? He definitely isn't going to win any new fans tonight as this was a classic Mayweather exhibition. Crowd on their feet at the minute mark as it looked like Mayweather might be trying to finish Berto. Mayweather lifts his hands in the air at the end. Mayweather wins a unanimous decision, with the judges scoring it: 117-111, 118-110 and 120-108. iframe width="420" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/w9QihlG-Nag" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen>

Tim Tebow throws magical touchdown pass During Eagles' Game


The Eagles quarterback threw a beautiful back-shoulder touchdown pass to Rasheed Bailey during the second quarter of Philadelphia’s preseason matchup against the New York Jets on Thursday. On third-and-16, Tebow dropped back and fired to his left. Rookie wide receiver Rasheed Bailey turned and, as cornerback Dexter McDougle closed in, caught the pass for an 18-yard touchdown. Tebow completed 6 of 10 passes for 106 yards and a touchdown in the first half. The Jets led 17-12 at the break. Strikes like that to Bailey are only going to help his cause as he makes his case for a spot on the roster. Tebow already has a good chance because of his versatility and the ability to run a read-option, but if he can show big pass play ability, the Eagles will have no chase but to keep him.
