Day 789

• Mike Tyson will not be charged for the airplane incident.  As well, if the reports are accurate, he shouldn't be.  You throw a water bottle at the guy, he should be allowed to swing on your ass.    
• Head-rentier Tom Brady is headed to FOX after his career is over.  Indicating, also, that this is a "ring on the way out" year for Tampa.  And Green Bay drafted accordingly.    
• FIFA and EA Sports are done with their partnership.  Good, maybe the next FIFA game will actually...  NOT SUCK?    
• ESPN sometimes has room for the lighter side.  Fantasy football leagues across the country usually have positive prizes for the people who win them -- and negative prizes for the people who finish last in them.  This one is rather interesting:  The Kansas City, MO league had, as it's "forfeit" (penalty prize for losing) that the losing player had to play a round of golf -- the local US Open first-round qualifier, no matter how bad he sucked at it!
• John Eckert did so yesterday, and I don't think I'm plagiarizing ESPN when use the same words and say it went exactly as you would expect.  He shot 112, 40 over par -- and the two medalists in that round shot even par.
• If I'm the USGA, I don't bother with the letter revoking both pro and amateur status.  (You have to be either a pro or an amateur with under a 1.4 handicap -- and registering as a pro revokes all amateur status.)  As long as he wasn't disrupting the round, take it in stride, smile about it, and have a light moment, like the rest of us.  Even the person telling ESPN about the rule concedes Eckert probably isn't in a position to care.    
• 19 of the world's top 100 players have wanted to play in the initial Saudi-backed Greg Norman breakaway tour event.  The PGA Tour (correctly) has denied all applications for waivers to play in such.  That would be tagged under "Duh".     
• Reid Detmers of the Angels with a far more conventional no-hitter than the one the Mets threw.  108 pitch complete game in a 12-0 win over the Rays, 1 6th inning walk, 1 7th inning error.
