UNDATED (AP) - The NBA has suspended Timberwolves forward Kevin
Love for two games for stomping on the face of Rockets forward Luis
Scola during Sunday's game. The decision means the Wolves will be
without their leading scorer and rebounder for tonight's home game
against Sacramento and Wednesday night's outing at Memphis. Love
said after the game that the stomp was not intentional and he went
to Houston's locker room to apologize to Scola.
UNDATED (AP) - Kentucky is on top of The Associated Press'
college basketball poll for a third straight week and fifth time
this season. Just as they did a week ago, the Wildcats received 63
first-place votes from the 65-member national media panel. Syracuse
got the other No. 1 votes and remains No. 2, followed by Ohio
State, Missouri, and North Carolina.
NEW YORK (AP) - The Super Bowl-winning New York Giants will be
honored in a parade up the Canyon of Heroes in Manhattan and head
to the steps of City Hall before holding another celebration at the
Meadowlands later today. The Giants won their fourth Super Bowl -
and second in five seasons - by downing the New England Patriots
21-17 Sunday at Indianapolis. Coach Tom Coughlin (KAWF'-lihn) said
at a news conference yesterday that he has every intention of
returning to the Giants next season.
UNDATED (AP) - The Pittsburgh Steelers and New England Patriots
have new offensive coordinators. ESPN says former Kansas City
Chiefs coach Todd Haley will run the Steelers' offense next year,
replacing Bruce Arians. Patriots coach Bill Belichick has confirmed
that Josh McDaniels will be the team's offensive coordinator next
season after being brought in during the playoffs as an offensive
assistant under Bill O'Brien, who has left to become Penn State's
head coach.
MONTREAL (AP) - Pittsburgh Penguins captain Sidney Crosby
practiced with the team yesterday but says he is no closer to
returning from a concussion and neck injury that have caused him to
miss most of the NHL season. Coach Dan Bylsma felt with
Jordan Staal and Simon Despres ready
to resume skating after their injuries, it was better to include
Crosby in the main practice rather than have him skate on his own.
