A good start for the Canadians at the PGA Tour's season-opening Mercedes Championships in Kapalua, Maui. '03 Masters Champ Mike Weir fired a 6-under 67 in yesterday's 2nd round to post a 1 shot lead over Calgary's Stephen Ames. 3rd round continues today with coverage on The Golf Channel at 6pm.
It's a good thing Dany Heatley and Daniel Alfredsson are natural-born lamplighters. Both scored late in the 3rd to stop a Buffalo Sabres rally helping the Sens win 5-3. Bufftown has now lost 5 in a row. Sens D Anton Volchenkov made his return to the lineup after missing a month with a broken index finger, and made his presence felt almost immediately as he flattened Daniel Paille. Paille left the game with a broken everything. Atta boy A-Train.
The NFL playoffs get kicked off today at 4:30pm with the Washington Redskins visiting Seattle. This is a tough one to pick. The Redskins are riding a huge wave of emotion for fallen teammate Sean Taylor, and the longer they stay in the game, the better their chances for an upset. If they can't ride it, expect the potent Seahawks offence to send'em packing....I'll take the Redskins in a squeeker...... At 8pm, we've got the Jacksonville Jaguars in steeltown to see if they can beat Pittsburgh twice at Heinz Field this season. Expect the Jags' RB Fred Taylor to pound away at the Steelers' defence with a steady run. QB David Garrard will also be looking to prove he can win in the post-season. Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger will be throwing often against a shaky Jags secondary. Should be a good one.....I'm taking the Jags to beat'em again....... It's Saturday so obviously the NHL has a slew of games...Some of the leagues best gunners are in Ottawa tonight. NHL point leader Vincent Lecavalier along with linemate Martin St. Louis and the Tampa Bay Lightning will take on the Sens' Dany Heatley, Daniel Alfredsson, Jason Spezza.... should be some HON candidates for SportsCentre tonight.
Oh, before I forget...By the numbers, Leafs are in trouble. (TSN)

Don't forget to vote for Chris Bosh...apparently he really wants your votes. His buddy Bubba makes this video worth watching.
