2007-10-31 18:10:00 By Jim Cnockaert Alex Schoenauer might best describe his life as a never-ending search for the next big adrenalin rush. He's always been able to find one, whether it was playing football at Montana State, skippering a 96-foot yacht up and down the Pacific Coast or hunting rattlesnakes around Ennis (which he still does any time he's back in Montana). These days, he gets that rush training for and competing in the International Fight League, a professional mixed martial arts league based in 12 cities, including New York, Toronto, Chicago and Tokyo. Schoenauer, who lives and trains in Las Vegas, is the light heavyweight for the Los Angeles Anacondas. Ranked second at his weight class, he will fight for the league's light heavyweight title Saturday during the IFL Grand Prix semifinals at the Sears Centre in Chicago. His opponent is unbeaten and top-ranked Vladimir Matyushenko, a Belarus native who competes for the Tokyo Sabres. The championship bout in this weight class...

I wish him the best of luck. Rumor has it he may wind up in Australia.

***THE BOSTON RED SOX ARE 2007 WORLD SERIES CHAMPIONS......TOP OF THE WORLD
2007-10-29 11:01:00 They did it! The Boston Red Sox defeated the Colorado Rockies by a score of 4-3 on a warm Sunday night in Denver. They are champions of the world once more, the only team to do it twice this century. Jon Lester was impeccable. He pitched 5 2/3 innings of shutout ball, giving up only 3 hits while walking 3 and throwing 92 pitches. The bullpen took it from there. Manny Delcarmen gave up a run in his 2/3 of an inning, Mike Timlin had 2 big strikeouts in his 2/3, an overused Hideki Okajima went 1/3 of an inning and gave up a 2 run home run to Garrett Atkins and zero ERA man Jonathon Papelbon threw 23 pitches in retiring the final 5 Colorado batters. And then, bedlam on the field. Pure and simple happy, joyous bedlam. And all around the world, RSN and RSI rejoiced with the team we love to love.The Sox had a 1-0 first inning lead courtesy of a lead off double by Jacoby Ellsbury and a ground single through the drawn in infield by Big Papi. Their second run scored in the fifth inning. A lea...

2007-10-29 10:10:00 China once again showed its superiority in world badminton by clinching 4 of the 5 titles at stake at the 2007 Denmark Open. Malaysians Koo Kien Keat and Tan Boon Heong survived the sweep by beating Danish runner-ups Jens Eriksen and Martin Lundgaard in three games.In singles, Lin Dan and Lu Lan climbed onto the top step of the podium while compatriots Yang Wei and Zhang Jiewen were given a scare by Koreans Lee and Lee in the women?s doubles. On the other hand, He Hanbin and Yu Yang won their first Super Series title in mixed doubles.He Hanbin and Yu Yang are certainly a pair to watch in the future. Their win in Saturday?s semi-finals might not have been the most convincing one, but in the final, they proved that they could beat any pair in the world.Indeed, the Chinese started strong against the English pair of Nathan Roberston and Gail Emms and snatched the first game 21-17. In the second game, the English used basic mixed doubles strategy to its fullest by allowing Robertson to p...

Historic Rally Championship: Perry and Townend take best 'non-Escort' award
2007-10-29 00:00:00 Click on the picture to enlarge Dunlop/Gambia MSA British Historic Rally Championship Talbot Sunbeam crew Richard Perry and Clive Townend have been confirmed as winners of the special award for the best non-Escort crew in category 3 of the Dunlop/Gambia MSA British Historic Rally Championship. Category 3, for cars from 1975 to 1981, is dominated by Ford Escort Mk2s, so to recognise and encourage crews in other cars, the HRCR Best Non-Escort Award is presented to the highest scoring crew in anything other than an Escort. Perry, from Market Drayton in Shropshire, ran his Talbot under the name of 'Team Shoestring' and sealed the award with a strong finish on the final round, the Trackrod Historic Cup on 6 October. "We've been flat out a lot of the time," said Perry at the end of the high-speed Yorkshire event. That result took them just four points clear of the Vauxhall Chevette of Roger Kilty/Lynette Banks, while third among the non-Escort pack was the Talbot Sunbeam Lotus...

Reds roll into Asian Champions League final
2007-10-25 12:33:00 By the skin of their teeth the Urawa Reds staked their place in the finals of the Asian Champions League on Wednesday.The J-League holders beat K-League champions Seongnam Ilhwa Chunma 5-3 on penalties in the second leg of the home-and-away semifinal at Saitama Stadium after playing to a 2-2 draw in regular time.The teams also played to a 2-2 draw in the first leg in South Korea on Oct. 3, giving the Reds a slight advantage heading into the return leg.But true to his word, Urawa manager Holger Osieck had his team play for the win rather than throw everybody behind the ball in hopes of eking out a 0-0 or 1-1 draw, which would have been enough to see the Reds through due to the away goals rule.Brazilian attacker Washington, playing in a black mask to protect the nose he injured in Urawa's 4-2 league win over JEF United Chiba on Saturday, wasted no time in exhibiting his willingness to play his usual physical style.The Brazilian recorded the first shot of the match 58 seconds in and t...

Uefa Champions League Group A
2007-10-24 23:42:00 Be?ikta? 2-1 LiverpoolBe?ikta? JK were celebrating a famous win after an early own goal and a clinical Bobo finish sealed a thrilling victory against Liverpool FC in Istanbul.Unhappy returnThe luckless Sami Hyypi put through his own goal for the second time in five days and Bobo doubled the lead with eight minutes left to make Steven Gerrard's headed response academic. Be?ikta? moved two points clear of bottom side Liverpool in Group A to ensure the Reds endured an unhappy return to the scene of their 2005 triumph.Bright startBoth teams went into the match desperate for points: Be?ikta? having lost their first two games without scoring, and last season's runners-up having been held at FC Porto and beaten by Olympique de Marseille. Be?ikta?, whose coach Ertu?rul Sa?lam was serving a one-match suspension leaving Mutlu Topu in charge, began brightly as Serdar Kurtulu? shot over from distance three minutes in. Shortly after, Ryan Babel's fine run won a corner which came to Andriy V...

2007-10-24 23:40:00 Chelsea 2-0 SchalkeDidier Drogba scored for the second successive UEFA Champions League game to build on Florent Malouda's early strike as Chelsea FC took a positive stride towards qualification for the knockout rounds yet again. Deserved winThe Premier League side always had too much strength and know-how for an FC Schalke 04 side who received a setback before the start and were unlucky to hit a post as they tried to reduce the two-goal deficit. It leaves Chelsea with a three-point advantage at the head of Group B and extends new manager Avram Grant's 100 per cent record in the competition since succeeding Jos Mourinho. Chelsea delightSchalke's prospects were not helped when Kevin Kuranyi failed a fitness test on the knee he hurt in training on Tuesday and was removed from their lineup. Sren Larsen took over which meant the visitors, already disrupted by injuries, could only name five substitutes. Chelsea immediately set about making their task even more difficult by snatching...

Wonderful saveHome captain Ral Gonzlez set the tone by breaking the deadlock after two minutes, and with eleven more played the visitors had equalised through Luciano Galletti and had Vassilis Torossidis dismissed. Still, Jlio Csar fired Olympiacos into a shock lead just after the break before Robinho?s double either side of a Ruud van Nistelrooy penalty miss. The drama continued until the death, with Iker Casillas producing a wonderful added-time save seconds ahead of Javier ngel Balboa?s clincher for Madrid.Early scoreOn a high from their first-ever away win in the UEFA Champions League at Werder Bremen last time out, Olympiacos conjured the game's first chance after a minute when a long-range Ieroklis Stoltidis shot fizzed over Casillas?s crossbar. Moments later the visitors were... |
