Patriots' Tedy Bruschi to announce retirement Monday

Al Michaels just announced on NBC's Sunday Night Football telecast that New England Patriots LB Tedy Bruschi will announce his retirement tomorrow.

The Patriots have not confirmed the news but did issue a press release saying "The New England Patriots have called a press conference for an important player announcement at 10:45 Monday morning."

New NBC analyst Rodney Harrison, a former Patriots safety who also retired this offseason, had this to say about Bruschi on the telecast: "A terrific football player, a great friend of mine, one of the hardest-working guys that I've ever been around, a tremendous leader in that locker room, a guy that was an integral part of that 2003-2004 Super Bowl run that we had."

Bruschi, who entered the league under Bill Parcells as a third-rounder out of Arizona in 1996, has played in five Super Bowls with the Patriots.

A one-time Pro Bowler, he also came back from an offseason stroke to play nine games in 2005.

The Patriots have shown more 4-3 defensive looks this preseason with Jerod Mayo playing middle linebacker, an indication that the 36-year-old Bruschi, an inside backer in the 3-4 defense, was being phased out. Gary Guyton started next to Mayo in the last two preseason games when the Pats opened in their base 3-4.

But while preparing for what would have been his 14th NFL campaign this offseason, Bruschi, who knew he had more yesterdays than tomorrows in pro football, was also ensuring the next generation of Patriots was embracing the franchise's philosophy.

This summer, he told USA TODAY's Sean Leahy of the young Pats that he wanted to "show them the right way to do things -- how I am in the meetings, in the weight room and on the field. They get a very strong message from (head coach) Bill Belichick. If there's ever a reinforcement that's needed, there's guys like myself and (quarterback) Tom Brady to deliver the message."

Results of UFC 102

Source: http://www.theonlinewire.com/

UFC 102 has just ended and we have all the results from one of the best fighting nights of action in recent memory.

In the main event for UFC 102, the results were not pretty for future UFC Hall of Famer Randy Couture as he was soundly beaten by Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira.

Nogueira won every round fairly decisively and not only controlled the ground work but also the standup. The Brazilian flattened his UFC 102 opponent more than once and the results showed a 30-27, 30-27, 30-28 win on the cards. Nogueira looks like the next opponent for UFC heavyweight champion Brock Lesnar.

It did not take Nate Marquardt long to find winning results in his fight against submission expert Demian Maia and the fight came to a conclusion just seconds in the first round.

It was a strong right hand that brought down the Brazilian and Marquardt showed restraint by not doing further damage to his dazed foe before the referee called the fight off.

Thiago Silva also made quick work of Keith Jardine with a first round knockout. The results were not pretty for Jardine and it appears that his weaknesses against strong Muay Thai fighters are going to continue for the time being.

Chris “The Crippler” Leben was fighting in his hometown of Portland, Oregon and was arguably winning the first two rounds before the UFC 102 results turned bad for him.

Leben came close to knocking out his opponent, Jake Rosholt, but ultimately fell victim to an arm triangle in the third round. Leben tried twice to tap out but the referee was apparently not paying much attention and Leben went to sleep. Even in his dreams “The Crippler” was fighting and threw some punches and kicks in his sleep-like status.

In undercard action, newcomer Todd Duffee set the UFC record for the fastest knockout when he dispatched of Tim Hague in just 7 seconds.
