Steve Nash and Claudio Reyna put together a celebrity soccer game at Sara D. Roosevelt park in New York City. The match brought out some big names and a huge crowd in the name of charity. Fans climbed fences, trees, and light post to watch Baron Davis, Jason Kidd, Leandro Barbosa, and Raja Bell join up with Thierry Henry, Steve McManaman, and Robbie Fowler. Steve Nash’s team won the game 9-4 which probably doesn’t matter as much as the overall entertainment provided by all of the players.

Thierry Henry:

Baron Davis played soccer in seventh grade, but that didn’t stop him from committing two hand-ball fouls which led to penalty kicks.. And he got carded. It wasn’t all bad for BD though.. Check out his game below:

It’s fun to watch the NBA players on the soccer field but you know the Golden St. Warriors were nervous. Baron Davis is injury prone and the team might be trying to move him. One wrong step and their 2008-09 season and the hopes of a deal were done.

When Serena Williams isn’t talking about her big booty, or getting interviewed at the aiport, she battles evil for Hewlett Packard. In this video, the tennis diva is protecting the city of Comptonia from a knowledge hating mechanical menace… I have to wonder though, if Serena has the ability to become Sugar Fly Williams, why doesn’t she do that during her WTA matches? She could easily be the greatest tennis player of all time. And I hope Venus Williams can at least see through walls or something. If Venus doesn’t have any superhuman abilities that means her younger sister Serena:

1. is a better tennis player than Venus.
2. dates all kinds of semi-celebs while Venus gets stuck with Hank Kuehne.
3. can fly and kick ass while Venus watches.

If it’s possible for things to suck for a 20something millionaire that fought her way out of the ghetto through tennis, then it sucks to be Venus Williams.

And in case your on the edge of your seat, dying to know if Serena defeated the robot, check out this video from Times Square.

Justin Miller, a cornerback and kick returner for the New York Jets was arrested early Sunday morning for going Ron Artest accidentally punching a woman during a fight at a New York City nightclub. According to police Miller took a swing at a man, the man ducked, and Miller struck the woman in the face. JM is apparently some sort of bad ass because the 5’10″, 196 pound footballer was taking on 3 guys at the time of misplaced punch. There’s no information on the size of the other 3 men involved in the altercation.

Justin Miller issued the following statement:

“I want to apologize to everyone for this situation, including my family, my teammates, the Jets organization, our fans and the entire NFL. I understand that serving in the NFL is an honor and that I have an obligation to behave in a manner that reflects the privilege I have been given.”

The Jets are currently “evaluating the situation” and plan to take the matter to the commissioner’s office. The NYJ’s statement:

“We expect our players to adhere to the highest standards of conduct off the field and take any allegation of personal misconduct very seriously. We are in the process of gathering information, and have notified the commissioner — in light of the NFL’s new conduct policy. Until we’ve had an opportunity to review all the facts we will refrain from further comment.”

It sounds like the Jets are trying to land on the good side of the Commish by taking the matter to him… It sucks for Miller, but it sucks even more for the lady that got punched on accident. If you’re unfamiliar with Justin Miller, check out this video of some of his college highlights:

I couple of things I thought of while watching the video: dude can lay some hat, thank goodness the woman only suffered a laceration on her face and pain and swelling in her knee, AND… How in the hell did the police catch him?
