Santonio Holmes ius troubled in the case
Wide receiver Santonio Holmes with steelers jersey won't be charged with any crime for his impolite behavior throwing a glass and caused a laceration above a woman's right eye.
Orlando police told the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review that the case is closed since Anshonae Mills declined to press charges and issued a signed statement that said: "I refuse to prosecute the perpetrator for the incident." Per a police report, the investigating officer watched Mills smiling and "rubbing Holmes’ face" after they talked following the incident at the nightclub. Holmes is still facing a civil lawsuit asking for more than $15,000 in damages. Mills has claimed that the former Super Bowl MVP threw a glass of liquor at her during an argument over a seat on a couch in a VIP room.
Holmes has told ESPN, "he didn’t do anything."

Cardinals re-sign LB Beisel
eteran linebacker Monty Beisel will be continue to wear the ardinals jersey. The team re-signed him today among a host of moves made by the club.
Having lost linebackers Karlos Dansby and Chike Okeafor already in free agency, the team needed to bring Beisel, an 11-year veteran, back in order to not have a completely bare cupboard. It’s expected that the Cardinals will place a high priority on linebacker in the draft, maybe even more so now that Joey Porterhas been pinched for DUI in Bakersfield, Calif.
Beisel started last season with the Kansas City Chiefs but rejoined Arizona midway through the season. He’s a key contributor on special teams and that is a need area for the team too after Sean Morey departed in free agency for the Seattle Seahawks.

Nets need two wins
Players with nets jersey are looking forward to two wins in their final 12 games.
While it may sound like one of those no-brainer tasks for most teams, the Nets are not your ordinary team. This is one looking to avoid the stigma of being the worst in NBA history. New Jersey has won SEVEN times in 70 games. That’s a 7-63 record, or one victory in every 10 games. Now the Nets have to win twice in the final 12 to avoid ending the 1972-73 Philadelphia 76ers’ 37-year stranglehold on the league’s worst mark at 9-73. During the exchange, Brett Yormark pointed a finger at the fan before eventually walking away.
Nets' fans have been great and they are stuck with the team through a tough season.

Tebow show's his value
All the players with NFL jerseys want to show the value of themselves. It's the mission.
"Football is just a way to bring me closer to what’s important for me," Tim Tebow said. So there was Tebow, minutes after putting on a show for NFL teams during Wednesday’s pro day workout at Florida, throwing a football with wheelchair-bound Alex Ross, a 17-year-old from nearby Jacksonville who was shot in the head in January and lost the use of the left side of his body. Ross threw a football to Tebow, who caught the ball and summed up the day’s events: "Let’s see (them) come over here and critique that."
NFL Network analyst Mike Mayock said from the Senior Bowl to now, the improvement is ridiculous and he was blown away.

Following of Williams’ slaying
The case of cornerback Darrent Williams with dallas cowboys jersey was clear these days. The man accused of firing the shots proved to be enough.
“He wouldn’t take a fist fight he can’t win, but he’d take a gun fight he can’t lose,” Chief Deputy District Attorney Bruce Levin said of Willie Clark during closing statements in the 26-year-old’s trial. Clark faces 21 charges, including first-degree murder, attempted murder and assault in the New Year’s Day 2007 shooting. Two others were injured in the shooting that killed Williams, a rising star in the NFL in late 2006. Jurors were to begin deliberations Wednesday morning.
But some one thought Willie Clark is a scapegoat.
