Leave me alone.We coming for that championship....home.For Tennessee, I put on for Tennessee, I put on (repeated)Ha!. I have heard Chicago Bears announcer Jeff Joniak of WBBM 780 say "Devin Hester you areridiculous" over the years, but will he being saying that more this season?We all know his nicknames, "Ridiculous," "Anytime," and "Windy City Flyer." We all have seen his amazing seven punt returns, four kick returns and two offensive scores, so we obviously know his ability.Super Bowl XLI marked the first time a player returned the opening kickoff for a touchdown in the Super Bowl. He will increase his workload as wide receiver to as much as three times more than last season.Is it a good idea to put him on the field as a receiver? You bet it is. He improves every quarterback's chance to throw a TD, but did you ever think that it would ruin his kick/punt returning ability?You don't want to put him on the field too long; then he won't be able to return each kickoff and punt. I can see replacing Bernard Berrian and becoming the Bears #1 deep threat, which they are in dire need of.I think they don't want to give him too much now, because they have not seen him play a whole season as a wide receiver. I hope he does very well next season, and I can see him scoring aboutseven or eight touchdowns on offense.He won't be the Bears No. 1 target, because of the other receivers on the team will battle for his spot.
Those receivers are Marty Booker, who is a solid veteran; Brandon Lloyd, who has said to have been the best inmini-camp so far; Mark Bradley, who hasshown some ability but is injury prone; andRashied Davis, who has stepped up his game.If Hester explodes this season, he could turn into a Steve Smith who also has blazing speed.

Jane McGrath, the wife of former Australia cricketer Glenn McGrath, has died after complications resulting from surgery.

She was a tremendous mother to James and Holly and shared a very special and deep relationship with Glenn in the time they had together."All of us are thinking about Glenn and their children at this very sad time. We all wish to convey that our best wishes go with him and to know our heartfelt sympathies are with the family at this time. Jane will be very fondly remembered by all of us."Australia's Prime Minister, Kevin Rudd, paid tribute to McGrath while offering his condolences to the family."Jane's courageous struggle touched all Australians," he said.

I PASS ON DEEPEST CONDOLENCES TO GLEN McGRATH AND HIS CHILDREN.. The list of potential shortstops who could represent the National League in the All-Star Game is exceptional, but there are vast differences between what kind of shortstops these players are.In fact, the top two shortstops on this list are neck-and-neck in my eyes. One is a pure shortstop and one is a home run-hitting crowd pleaser. Yunel Escobar and Jimmy Rollins did not make this list but deserve recognition for their great seasons. 5. Ryan Theriot, Chicago CubsThe man that they call “The Riot” in Chicago hasn’t been in the league for very long. The fourth-year Cub from LSU is tied with Carlos Guzman for the highest batting average on this list, hitting .310 He finds his pit fall in the area of power hitting. Theriot has only 11 doubles, one home run and 22 runs batted in. 4.
