The last time the United States and Panama met was the 2011 Gold Cup. The US lost the June 11th

Usually, it's a good idea to have the quarterback for the Indianapolis Colts on your fantasy
football squad. However, when that quarterback is Curtis Painter, that assumption isn't so
clear.
What should we expect from Curtis Painter in fantasy football for Week 4?
Not much.
Curtis Painter entered the season as the Colts' third-string quarterback behind Peyton Manning
and Kerry Collins.
Our friends at Football in Miami and Beyond pointed out a recent TIFO by Tampa
Bay supporters. Looks a little familiar.
Thanks to the excellent Football in Miami and Beyond blog for pointing this
out.
The latest talk out of Indianapolis is that Peyton Manning could be out for the season. While
not a huge surprise considering the future Hall of Fame quarterback underwent neck surgery
recently, it was surprising to hear Colts owner Jim Irsay talk about how Manning is not expected
back this season.

The penultimate weekend in the NASL offered little in the way of high-scoring contests but

The Carolina Railhawks have been, without question, the most dominant team in the inaugural NASL
season, but they had to wait until Wednesday to make it official.

Strikers.
The Rowdies have now scored 18 goals in their last 9 games and are heading into the playoffs on a
tear. Mike Ambersley may look young but the FC Tampa Bay player is a weathered veteran who's been
around pro soccer since 2006. He was drafted by FC Dallas in the SuperDraft. But life as [...]
