Comments Thread For: Mike Alvarado Plans To Pressure, Hit Brandon Rios Often
Top junior welterweight contender Mike Alvarado (33-0) is a little over a week a way from the biggest fight of his career. He has gained exposure recently by fighting on two of Manny Pacquiao's recent pay-per-view undercards. On a recent edition of BoxingScene's official audio show The Boxing Lab, Alvarado told us that he feels those fights plus his most recent fight versus Mauricio Herrera have given him the experience he needs when he faces Brandon Rios next Saturday.

Which may give Rios the opportunity he needs to land back. This fight is going to be nice and not go the full 12.

Is Alvarado, as many are saying, really the bigger guy? Rios at 137 looked like a skeleton, if anything it's Rios who looks like he ain't gonna be fighting at 140 for too long. Even Mickey Garcia is saying Rios is bigger. I'm favoring Rios here, he's more skilled on the inside, more skilled offensively and defensively.

Suit by Ala. inmate handcuffed to outdoor post rejected
The Associated Press
BIRMINGHAM, Alabama- A federal judge has dismissed a lawsuit brought by an inmate who was handcuffed to an outdoor post for seven hours at an Alabama prison and sought monetary damages from three guards.
Hope, whose 1996 suit was allowed to go to trial in a ruling by the U.S. Supreme Court, alleged that he had been denied water, food, a bathroom break and protection from the sun when he was handcuffed to the chest-high bars, known as hitching posts, for seven hours in 1995.
The posts were used when inmates refused to go on work details or were unruly. The practice ended in 1998 after a federal judge ruled it was unconstitutionally cruel and unusual.
Bowdre, who dismissed Hope's suit before it went to a seven-member jury, ruled there was no clear-cut evidence from Hope's testimony that the three guards had an awareness of potential harm or acted with deliberate indifference to Hope's health and safety.
Hope testified that he suffered injuries, including wrist cuts and skin damaged by the sun, when he was left shirtless on the post.
Assistant State Attorney General Ellen Leonard, representing the guards, said no injuries were found when Hope was checked in an infirmary before and after his time on the post.
"He's probably where he needs to be, but just because someone is in prison in America doesn't mean you can treat them like they treated him," Craig T. Jones, an attorney for Hope, said Tuesday.

Is there more to life than money?
Luke Coleman | 09 Jul 2014 09:37 GMT | Iraq, Middle East
Erbil, Iraq - The citadel that looks out over Erbil in Iraq's Kurdish region is often claimed to be the oldest continuously-inhabited settlement in the world. The mound on which it sits has evidence from Assyrian and Sumerian times, and the structure is imagined to contain the Temple of Ishtar, deep below the ground.
The citadel was granted World Heritage status at the recent session of UNESCO in Doha, finally upgraded from the "tentative" list, where it had sat since 2010, a decision welcomed by Dara al-Yaqoobi, head of the High Commission for Erbil Citadel Revitalisation (HCECR).
"The World Heritage Committee recognises that Erbil Citadel has met its conditions and criteria and the site has outstanding international value, it deserves to be inscribed. Being a UNESCO World Heritage site is very important," Yaqoobi told Al Jazeera.
As increasingly troubled political realities plague the region, World Heritage status has been proclaimed as "a gift ... to the people and all communities of Iraq", by a member of the Iraqi delegation to UNESCO.
The citadel, which is being touted as a major tourist destination in Iraq, joins three other UNESCO sites in the country: Ashur, Hatra, and Samarra.
VIDEO: UN body calls for saving Iraq heritage sites
The citadel is not the only structure undergoing preservation work in the area.
A large building near the north gate is being re-purposed as a visitor and information centre, and Yaqoobi said homes and businesses would also be built.
The project to revitalise the visitor centre is in the first five-year phase of a 15-year plan. Yaqoobi said that $35m had been spent by the Kurdistan Regional Government so far over the last three years, and that the HCECR was investigating the feasibility of public-private partnerships to raise more funds.
Another major project near completion is the reconstruction of the main gate. In the 1950s, the Ottoman-era gate was demolished as it was deemed unsafe. "They didn't know how to conserve it," Yaqoobi said, "so they did the easy thing and removed it".
The area remained empty until 1979, when the municipality constructed a new gate. After a year of research by the HCECR - using photographs, first-person testimonies, and archaeological examinations of the original foundation - a decision was made to rebuild it using the previous design.
There is a large amount of construction, maintenance, and preservation taking place in the citadel itself. "It means bringing life back to the citadel. We have to have good conditions for residential and other activities," Yaqoobi said.
In addition to being at the centre of the capital, the citadel is regarded as central to long-term tourism plans for the region, with discussions taking place about adding restaurants and shops to the textile museum which was recently opened within its walls.
Alongside UNESCO, the HCECR will undertake a study looking at a viable strategy for tourism development. The details of this new plan remain unknown at present.
RELATED: Mapping Iraq's fighting groups
But will international recognition have a positive effect on tourism?
Mohammed Yaseem Jamal, the proprietor of a shop selling honey, perfumes, and gifts at the base of the citadel, is unsure. He has been doing business in this area for 45 years.
I'm proud to have my shop here and happy about the UNESCO decision... But people don't come because they are scared of the name Iraq, even though we know the [Kurdish] region is very safe.
- Mohammed Yassem Jamal, shopkeeper near Erbil's Citadel
"I'm proud to have my shop here and happy about the UNESCO decision. I think it is a bit late, because it's important for people to know what life was like in the Citadel. But people don't come because they are scared of the name Iraq, even though we know the [Kurdish] region is very safe," he told Al Jazeera.
Heja Baban, co-founder of Meydan PR & Marketing which recently completed a project for the KRG Board of Tourism, said that recent violence across Iraq has negatively impacted perceptions among potential visitors.
"It affects how the rest of the world sees Iraq as a whole. The first thing you think as a tourist is 'Am I going to be safe?' And if that is not 100 percent clear, you will have second thoughts. Even though it is safe, it's not considered as safe as it was two months ago, and that's enough," Baban told Al Jazeera.
According to figures from the KRG Board of Tourism, approximately 2.2 million people visited the region in the first eight months of 2013. Yaqoobi is unsure of the effect the current conflict will have on tourism, "because it is so recent we don't have any clear statistics and we won't know the effect for some time".
So far, the citadel alone has not been enough to attract large numbers of tourists. "I hope this brings people, perhaps more will come when the museum is built," said Jamal, referring to the proposed Kurdistan National Museum, which is designed by Daniel Libeskind.
This museum project has come under renewed scrutiny in the wake of the World Heritage inscription, as it is planned for an area within the protected buffer zone around the base of the citadel. But UNESCO-imposed restrictions, including building regulations which state that the structure cannot be taller than three-storeys, may make development around the citadel difficult.
The International Committee On Monuments and Sites, which advised UNESCO on the award of World Heritage status, made reference to the contrast of the museum's very modern design and the citadel. Currently, the local government is considering whether to alter the design or move the proposed site.
Yaqoobi said: "If the museum doesn't match those regulations or isn't in harmony with the citadel, it may be modified a little."

Rep. Sheila Jackson LeeSheila Jackson-LeePelosi: 'We must and we will bring back' Nigerian schoolgirls Big bucks spent honoring lawmakers Black caucus treads carefully into Apple-FBI fight MORE (D-Texas) urged her colleagues to reach a compromise to prevent spending cuts through sequestration, arguing that government programs are already as lean as they can be.
"We're at the bone almost, and sequester, that is across-the-board cuts, will literally destroy us and put us in a recession," she said on the House floor Wednesday.
She called on Republicans to meet Democrats at the negotiating table and rejected the idea that President Obama delivered a partisan State of the Union address Tuesday night.
Jackson Lee suggested lawmakers should take inspiration from President Lincoln's leadership during the Civil War.
"I stand here as a freed slave because this Congress came together. Are we going to be able to do it today to free America?"
Jackson Lee was one of a handful of Democrats who took to the House floor to warn that the $85 billion in cuts to 2013 spending in the sequester, due to take place in March, would devastate people who rely on government services.
"If we allow sequestration to take place, we threaten to kick out 70,000 of our children off of the Head Start program," Rep. Ami BeraAmi BeraNRCC upgrades 11 'Young Guns' candidates House votes to restrict IRS hires and funding Rep. Ellison challenges Ryan to bring Muslim guest to SOTU MORE (D-Calif.) said. "If we allow sequestration to take place, 10,000 American teachers will lose their jobs.
"We threaten the very future of our children and grandchildren. This is irresponsible."
One member equated the sequester to a government shutdown of sorts.
"We don't want to see these devastating cuts go into effect," said Rep. Suzanne BonamiciSuzanne BonamiciRep. Ellison challenges Ryan to bring Muslim guest to SOTU House votes to start No Child Left Behind talks with Senate Obama warns of power grid's lagging cyber defenses MORE (D-Ore.). "We don't want to see a government shutdown. We don't want to tell the children that they have to have even more students in their already-crowded classrooms, or explain to senior citizens that the meals-on-wheels they rely on might not be delivered."
Earlier in the morning, Minority Whip Steny Hoyer (D-Md.) accused some Republicans of welcoming the sequester. Several GOP lawmakers have said they believe allowing the sequester to take place is the only way to ensure some cuts to the government.
The GOP has argued generally that most spending reductions agreed to over the last few years have only managed to cut future spending plans, not real spending.
These cuts have also focused on discretionary spending, not entitlement programs, and as a result, total federal spending has continued to increase over the last few years. According to the White House's Office of Management and Budget, the government is on pace to spend a record $3.803 trillion in 2013, up from $3.795 trillion in 2012.
OMB estimates that spending will hit $4 trillion in 2015, and $4.5 trillion in 2017.
As of Wednesday morning, House Republicans had no plans to bring up a sequester replacement bill this week, and the House is out next week.

Carriers working on shared iPhone, iPad data plans
Both Verizon Wireless and AT&T in the U.S. are working on data plan offerings that would allow users to share their monthly data allotment between the iPhone and iPad. AllThingsD reports that AT&T Mobility CEO Ralph de la Vega said in a interview at the D9 conference that "We're working on one. It will be soon. I can't comment on a quarter (when it will launch) but it will be soon," while Verizon CFO Fran Shammo also recently indicated that the company is exploring such an offer. These moves follow launches of shared data plans France Telecom's Orange unit in Austria, France, Spain, and the U.K., under which users pay an "extra couple of dollars" each month for each additional device that shares the same data allotment. In Austria, where such a plan has been offered the longest, Orange claims that 38 percent of all iPads on its network are now using the shared plans.

Rogers in Canada has offered a split-data plan for a couple of months now. It's a $15-a-month add-on for 1 gig of shared data. It's a great plan and allows me to actually use more of the data I pay for each month. Before, with just my iPhone, I was using one-tenth of my monthly data allotment. Now I probably use about three-tenths of my data. And I use my 3G connection on my iPad pretty liberally, especially at work where I can't use the wi-fi connection.

The Mini-ITX form factor has long been a viable platform for low-power desktops and home-theater PCs, but it's never been particularly friendly to high-performance gaming rigs. Today, however, we've proven that you can build one heck of a midget gaming system with Gigabyte's GA-H55N-USB3 motherboard and Silverstone's SG07 chassis. In fact, the case and mobo have enough headroom to accommodate an even more powerful system than the one we cobbled together.
Much of the credit for our system's gaming chops goes to Silverstone for fashioning a Mini-ITX chassis that can accept longer double-wide graphics cards and pairing it with a power supply meaty enough to feed them. That's a tall order for something the size of a shoebox, especially when you add multiple drive bays to the mix. But the SG07 swallows desktop components with ease, and thanks massive fans and compatibility with standard motherboards and desktop PSUs, it addresses many of the issues that drove enthusiasts away from proprietary small-form-factor systems of old.
The SG07 looks badass, too—that matters for a system small enough to sit on your desk or show off at a LAN party.
Of course, the SG07 isn't without its flaws. The absence of thumbscrews is maddening, and I'd move the reset and fan switches up front. I don't see much value in the space saved by the slim optical drive, either. The SG07 wouldn't have to grow too much to incorporate a 5.25" drive bay, and the extra volume would be well spent.
Much like the SG07, Gigabyte's GA-H55N-USB3 is good but not perfect. A $105 street price makes the H55N one of the cheapest Mini-ITX boards with an LGA1156 socket, yet it's loaded with overclocking potential and offers a pair of USB 3.0 ports. Performance is solid, too, and it's nice to see Gigabyte incorporating the same Ultra Durable goodness you get with its full-sized ATX boards.
Integrated Wi-Fi would've been nice, but that can easily be added with a USB adapter. It's much harder to get around the board's lack of support for real-time Dolby Digital Live or DTS encoding, which would've been a real plus here. The drop in SuperSpeed USB performance when graphics cards are used is a more serious flaw, although one that's only likely to affect users with extremely fast external drives. I'm more frustrated by Gigabyte's indefensible failure to address its prehistoric BIOS-level fan speed controls.
As it turns out, one must still compromise to squeeze a high-performance gaming rig into an enclosure the size of a shoebox. Those concessions are relatively modest considering the dearth of alternatives to these two products, though. Want a different LGA1156 Mini-ITX board with USB 3.0 functionality? There's only one: a Zotac model that costs $35 more than the Gigabyte board. And good luck finding an enclosure that can match the SG07's capacity for high-end graphics cards. The case's $200 asking price might look expensive in a vacuum, but taken in context, and with a 600W PSU, it's not unreasonable. Niches are rarely home to the best values.
If I were going to build a small-form-factor rig for desktop use or gaming, the GA-H55N-USB3 and SG07 would be at the top of an admittedly very short list of options. Both are TR Recommended, although they're not quite a match made in heaven. This is, however, a relationship worth working on.

America's Cup veteran Iain Murray will head Australia's syndicate for the next regatta.
The affable and vastly experienced Murray has been confirmed as chief executive of Hamilton Island Yacht Club's Team Australia, which is the challenger of record.
That role sees them help shape the rules for the next event along with cup holders Oracle.
Murray already has a close relationship with Oracle after being regatta director for the last event in San Francisco this year.
The 55-year-old Murray competed in the 1983, 1987 and 1992 America's Cups.
He has a strong allegiance to Bob Oatley, the multimillionaire who owns the Hamilton Island Yacht Club.
"Iain knows what it takes to win an America's Cup, having competed in three cups over the years," Oatley said in a statement.
"We've had the great pleasure of being able to work closely with him over the last three decades, and have found him to be a consummate professional and also now a dear friend."
Murray is thrilled to head the first Australian challenge in more than a decade.
"I have long been an avid supporter and ally of Bob Oatley," Murray said.
"When I received the invitation to lead Australia back into the America's Cup for the first time since 2000 on behalf of their Hamilton Island Yacht Club, there was only ever going to be one answer."
Oracle and Team Australia are working on the format for the next event that is expected to retain radical catamarans with San Francisco the favourite to host the regatta, probably in 2017.

Tuesday's lineup: Tigers at Royals
The Tigers are coming off an off-day, but Nick Castellanos is 1-for-11 lifetime against Yordano Ventura. That provides some reason behind him being out of the lineup despite his hot start. He took ground balls from infield coach Omar Vizquel this afternoon, so it's not injury. Mike Aviles gets his first start since April 9. It's more of a day-on for Aviles, Ausmus said, than a day off for Castellanos.
"We have such a set lineup that, especially now with all the off-days we've had and the rainout, it's tough right now to find these guys spots to play," Ausmus said. "Especially when at some of the positions the regulars are swinging the bat well, it makes you pause and go, 'Well, do I want to take him out?' But I can't have Mike Aviles sit on the bench for two weeks and then ask him to pinch-hit in a game to win it. He's got to get some at-bats."
The Royals recalled Jarrod Dyson today and put him in the lineup in right field. Add in Terrence Gore on the bench, and Kansas City has enough speed to test Jarrod Saltalamacchia and the Tigers bullpen late.
Note that with the Red Wings back at it tonight, the Tigers telecast moves to FSD Plus. The radio broadcast moves to WWJ AM 950.

Leyland to manage Team USA in World Baseball Classi
In case you missed it, Jim Leyland is returning to managing one more time, albeit for country rather than for a big-league team. USA Baseball named him Friday as the manager for Team USA in next spring's World Baseball Classic.
From Jon Morosi's story currently live on MLB.com:
"I'll definitely be ready," Leyland told MLB.com during a telephone interview. "I'm never going to manage again after this. I didn't think I'd manage this, either. But when I was asked, I could not turn this down. Not from an ego standpoint, but it's the honor of being asked to manage for your country.
"This is probably going to take me a little time, to start thinking about game situations, to sharpen up again. Contrary to what a lot of people think, I don't try to manage the game anymore. I just watch the Tigers, watch the game, watch the players. I don't think too much about the strategy. That's not my business anymore, not my job anymore.
"I'm not going to be a manager anymore, but this is a special thing that came up. I agreed to it right away. I'm very honored."
He's the second Tigers official in as many months named to a managerial post for the World Baseball Classic. Tigers first-base coach Omar Vizquel will manage for his native Venezuela.
Though Leyland is 71, age shouldn't be a factor in what is a relatively short tournament, far different from the daily grind of the Major League season. Joe Torre managed the U.S. team three years ago at age 72.
Nor should Leyland have any problem connecting with superstars, considering the level of respect for him in the game. More interesting to follow will be how he handles playing time. He was lukewarm about this event when it first started because of the timing, taking players away from camps for much of Spring Training and ramping up their playing time more aggressively than if they were in their regular camp. It'll also be interesting if Leyland takes a utility player or two (no, not Ryan Raburn) to provide some late-game versatility.
In any case, it's a great honor for him, and it'll be good to see him managing one more time in search of a title. The Americans have yet to make it to the championship game.
Zimmermann doesn't sweat bases loaded
The quotes about Jordan Zimmermann being a bulldog are starting to run together by now. So here's some reaction to Zimmermann's reaction to being in a jam:
- "He's one of the best pitchers in the game for a reason over the last six, seven years," Ian Kinsler said. "You expect a guy like that, one of the best pitchers in the game, to get himself out of trouble."
- "He doesn't scare often," manager Brad Ausmus said. "I don't think the situation bothers him, regardless of the inning or the baserunning situation. He's going to keep coming after you. He's going to do whatever he can to get you out. And whatever happens, happens."
- "[The demeanor] definitely doesn't let the offense feel like they're in charge, even when they might be," Nick Castellanos said. "That just goes back to how much of a competitor he is.
- "You don't see any difference with him, whether it's the first inning or bases loaded," catcher Bobby Wilson said. "I didn't feel any panic. When we go over scouting reports, we have a pretty good idea of what we're trying to do. So it's just executing pitches at that point. It's just making a pitch."
Zimmermann faced two bases-loaded jam — one with two outs, the other with one out. He had three-ball counts to back-to-back hitters in the latter. But there's a reason he hasn't given up a bases-loaded walk since Aug. 28, 2011, and has just two bases-loaded walks in his career.
At the same time, there's also a reason opponents are just 12-for-50 against him for his career in bases-loaded situations.
"Early in my career, I'd get in a jam like that, three balls, no strikes or one strike, and I'm coming with the fastball," Zimmermann said. "But now, I've gotten a little wiser I guess over the years, knowing that you can throw an offspeed in there. The hitters are definitely geared up for the fastball, so if you can throw an offspeed in for a strike, you pretty much got them where you want them."
Zimmermann believes in his offspeed when he has to make a pitch, and he had a lot of those occasions Thursday. He escapes the bases-loaded, one-out jam with sliders — 3-2 to Starling Marte, 3-1 to Gregory Polanco.
"I couldn't locate the fastball for whatever reason and fell behind," Zimmermann said. "My slider was good and I can throw it whenever I want. I went with that [to Marte]. And then 3-1, bases loaded [to Polanco], I went with a backdoor slider and got him to pop up.
"Most guys, the heater's coming 3-1, and they go with their best pitch. But when you're comfortable throwing your slider and you can throw it for strikes when you want, why not go with it?"
Thursday's lineups: Tigers at Pirates
Beautiful day for a matinee in Pittsburgh, where a chilly morning is expected to warm up by midday. It's also a lineup reminiscent lineup of a day game after a night game, with a few guys getting a break. Andrew Romine gets his first start of the season, while Bobby Wilson makes his first start as a Tiger, avoiding a quick turnaround for Jarrod Saltalamacchia. Wilson caught Jordan Zimmermann in his bullpen session a couple days ago, so it sounds like this plan was in the works before Saltalamacchia hit a grand slam last night. Meanwhile, Anthony Gose and Jose Iglesias are a combined 0-for-12 against Gerrit Cole.
Cole had a rough season debut last week, but he was nasty against the Tigers last year.

Wednesday's lineups: Tigers at Pirates
With no designated hitter slot, Victor Martinez returns to last week's role as a pinch-hitter. The bottom half of the lineup moves up. Shane Greene, 0-for-5 with five strikeouts as a hitter last season, gets to bat in his first start of the season.
The Pirates were originally scheduled to start Francisco Liriano tonight, but he was scratched with hamstring discomfort yesterday. Ryan Vogelsong gets the start in his place. Thus, the Tigers miss out on a matchup against a left-hander, but a tough lefty who has fared well against them the last few years.
Note below the station changes for tonight, both TV and radio.

Tuesday's lineups: Tigers vs. Pirates
Jarrod Saltalamacchia begins what should be a stretch of 2-4 weeks as the Tigers' regular catcher. Bobby Wilson will get some starts, but the bulk of the work falls on Saltalamacchia, who has worked with the pitching staff since spring training. Thus, it's pretty much a regular lineup for the Tigers against Pirates starter Juan Nicasio.
On the Pirates' side, Matt Joyce not only gets another start at DH, he's leading off against Anibal Sanchez. Michael Morse gets a start at first base over John Jaso, while David Freese slots in at third.

McCann likely out 2-4 weeks with ankle sprain
The Tigers placed catcher James McCann on the 15-day disabled list Tuesday with a right ankle sprain, suffered when he tried to avoid a first-base collision in Monday's game against the Pirates.
"They're calling it a Grade 2 sprain, which is generally 2-4 weeks," Tigers manager Brad Ausmus said. "But the next 24-48 hours should give us a better idea of how long it could be."
It's a seventh player to the disabled list for the Tigers, who opened the season without Cameron Maybin, Daniel Norris, Alex Wilson and Blaine Hardy among others. But considering the incident, they'll count their blessings.
"It could've been a lot worse," said McCann, who came into the home clubhouse at Comerica Park on crutches Tuesday morning, his right foot in a boot.
McCann was trying to beat out a single on a fifth-inning bouncer to second base. Josh Harrison's throw led first baseman John Jaso into McCann's path as he reached toward the line to grab the throw.
McCann was charging as Jaso reached, forcing McCann to try to change his path at the last second. McCann came up on the bag. Replay showed his right foot hit the side of the bag and turn, thus turning the ankle with it.
McCann tumbled to the ground behind the bag as first-base umpire Gabe Morales ruled him out. McCann walked off the field on his own power, followed by head athletic trainer Kevin Rand. Backup Jarrod Saltalamacchia replaced McCann behind the plate for the sixth inning.
Saltalamacchia, signed last December to give the Tigers a veteran backup, will get the bulk of the starts while McCann is out. The Tigers purchased the contract of Bobby Wilson from Triple-A Toledo to fill McCann's spot and back up Saltalamacchia.
The Tigers acquired Wilson at the end of Spring Training from Texas in a trade for Bryan Holaday, who would've been a natural in the role after a solid spring but was out of minor-league options and would not have cleared waivers. The 33-year-old Wilson has played in 249 Major League games over parts of seven seasons, including 56 games last year as a backup with the Rays and Rangers.
As for McCann, he'll travel with the team on its upcoming road trip to Pittsburgh, Houston and Kansas City. He'll continue to assemble scouting reports on opposing hitters, a role he took on midway through last season.
Monday's lineups: Tigers vs. Pirates
It's a cloudy, foggy morning around Detroit,
and it might stay that way for most of the afternoon but the skies appear to be clearing for afternoon. But it's dry and, most importantly, warmer. After the last few days, temperatures in the 50s feel balmy, even to somebody who was in Florida for two months.
Much like Brad Ausmus worked to find a start for Mike Aviles on Saturday, he did the same with Tyler Collins today. He'll start in center field against Pirates lefty Jonathon Niese.
The Pirates bring back former Tigers outfielder Matt Joyce to DH against Justin Verlander, who went from gearing up to face the Yankees to prepping for the Pirates.

Tigers-Yankees rained out, no makeup date yet
The wintry weather that marked the Tigers-Yankees series all weekend finally claimed a game. Sunday night's series finale at Comerica Park was postponed due to a combination of rain and cold.
The two teams played Saturday with a 31-degree first-pitch temperature, the coldest in Comerica Park's history. Though Sunday's midday snow changed to evening rain downtown as temperatures warmed, the forecast called for no dry patch all evening. With the Tigers scheduled to face the Pirates here Monday afternoon, there was little benefit to waiting to postpone if the forecast wasn't promising.
No makeup date was announced. Since this weekend was the Yankees' only scheduled visit to Detroit, they'll have to find a common off-day to make up the game. See the previous post for the complications involved with that.
More like Snowday [Rainy] Night Baseball?
The sight of snow outside as of midday Sunday was not exactly a sign of baseball weather. The forecast calls for that snow to change to rain as temperatures warm during the day and continue to warm in the evening. By warm, that means low 40s with winds at 10-15 mph. So while it won't be frigid, it could still be miserable.
That leaves the Tigers with a decision to make, and MLB to provide some consultation. The trouble with the schedule wasn't so much the Sunday night game — this would've been a mess at any time today — it was the Tigers opening their home schedule with a team that only makes one trip in this season. So if tonight's game is postponed, the two sides will have to find a common off-day for the Yankees to come in and play a makeup game.
Surprisingly, the Tigers and Yankees are off on the same day just six times this season, and even those have complications. The Tigers are traveling from Houston to Kansas City April 18. Both teams are in the middle of road trips May 2. The Tigers are coming back from a West Coast trip June 2. The Yankees are between stops in Houston and Tampa Bay July 28. Both teams are on the road Sept. 19.
While the Yankees are in between KC and Baltimore on Sept. 1, the Tigers are traveling from Detroit to KC. Maybe they should just make up the game at Kauffman Stadium. Playing Sept. 1 in Detroit or anywhere would have the Yankees playing more than three weeks without an off-day, so players would have to approve.
If there's any reason to wait a while and see if the weather improves, it's that trickiness in scheduling a makeup game. The Yankees are off Monday before starting a series in Toronto Tuesday night, so they can wait. The Tigers don't have to travel, but they start their series against the Pirates Monday afternoon, so they'd probably rather not wait too long.
Check back for updates.

i didnt have a really bad cramp until i was pregnant. tough it up and move on if you cant handle period pain then dont ever become a mother.
No, seriously. They're bad, one time my appendix stated hurting and it ran down my thigh, I was on the floor because it hurt that much, but I just thought it was a period cramp
When I went in to the ER I was doubled over on the ground in pain and they took one look at me and assumed I was having period cramps bc I was a teenage girl. So they took their time with me and you shoulda seen the look on that nurses face when she came in to tell me I have appendicitis, and that they need to operate immediately.
I feel so lucky to be one of the few women who rarely deals with period cramps | The 27 Realest Tumblr Posts About Periods
@calamitylulu it's like you were saying the other day about shitty doctors who don't get period cramps. Smh.
I had to put this out there. I get tired of people *cough guys cough* saying period cramps are nothing, no big deal.
When I had my first gallbladder attack I thought it was just bad period pains. But after 5 hours of intense pain my partner took me to the ER. He was like 'if you were in so much pain why didn't you tell me sooner' I just glared and said something like 'I go through this every month shut up'
This is how bad period cramps are: | The 27 Realest Tumblr Posts About Periods
Now whenever I get period cramps I'm paranoid that it might be appendicitis.

Review: Vario for iPad by Zerochroma
By Louis Senecal
Here is another unique case that I wanted to try out. I contacted Zerochroma and they were kind enough to send me an evaluation unit. If you are not in the market for an iPad case. You still may also find this interesting as they have the same type of case for other devices. Those include iPhone, iPod Touch and Nano, and Kindle. Take a look at their site to see if your specific model and generation is supported.

2008 Toyota Prius Standard 4dr Hatchback (1.5L 4cyl gas/electric hybrid CVT)
Apparently this year Prius had a problem with the headlights, and mine chose to be problematic after the warranty had expired. The dealer was incredibly expensive to replace the first one that failed, I used a body shop for the second and the price was significantly less than half the dealer cost.
I got the extended warranty which was useful as both front bearings needed replacement at 62K. I thought the navigation system would be helpful but it was out of date almost immediately and the cost to update was $75. It was never as good as the gamin or other popular programs at the time. Seems to me this would be something the dealer could offer as a perk. Soon after I got it cell phone navigation became a thing. Never use it. The voice recognition system was useless too. The driver's seat is not as comfortable as it should be and I wish it would go back just one more inch to accommodate my legs. Back seats are roomy enough for road trips. Easily fits 4 adults and luggage.I follow the usual maintenance schedule and have otherwise had no problems with this car. No problems with rust even where I've scraped it up.It holds an amazing amount of stuff as the rear seats fold down flat. It will fit a twin size mattress in the back. I plan on keeping this thing for a full 10 years then passing it down to my son when he's old enough to drive. Purchased a set of snow tires and rims. It runs great in the snow.
I love this car! It is the most reliable and inexpensive car I've owned. I plan on keeping this car for many more years. I love when I have to park it because it's small enough to fit in those tight spots. The backup camera is a plus and it's pretty good in the snow as long as you have good tires. I know eventually I'll have to replace the battery but I intend to keep it since the body of the car is in such great shape. I would highly recommend owning a Prius.
Aside from some shabby fabric on the center console, this has been a superb car. I've had maybe one repair done, and it was some routine thing they spotted at the 100k check-up. I get 48.5 mpg year round. It's quiet, and accelerates strongly at freeway speeds, like 45-75. Lots and lots of cargo space and catch-all storage areas. Only drawback? In 2008 they didn't have USB or iPod interfaces to the radio. There's also a design flaw with the traction control (which cannot be disabled) where when you stop at a stop sign and the pavement is the least but slick with water, ice or gravel the car may move haltingly when you press the gas. This is very bad, but you learn not to try and dart into traffic except in dry weather. Otherwise the performance and handling is fine.
2008 Toyota Prius Touring 4dr Hatchback (1.5L 4cyl gas/electric hybrid CVT)
I wrote a while back about my experience with my Prius. It is still a very reliable car that has not let me down. I replaced the 12 v battery myself as the original one was getting tired and wouldn't hold a charge any longer. Still get around 42 mpg in the cold and 46+ in warmer weather. This is great considering the car is driven an average speed of 72+ mph on the highway where it spends most of its time. The nav system isn't worth getting as it is woefully outdated and I'm not willing to pay a couple hundred for an update at the dealer. Car rides well and is fairly quiet, but still dislike the leather seats as church pews are more comfortable. Very happy with my purchase!
Good ride, few rattles, extreme reliabilty, bluetooth works well, and of course the mpg!
Seat comfort!

Put yourself in Wards position, you just beat the best SMWs and have just broken your hand and now a guy that has Johnson as his best win is calling you out even wanting the fight in his home town, would you accept? Does he deserve to fight you after he's you just went through he toughest guys?
Btw that injury takes a long time to heal, although the bone is healed it is still very sore and tender, my friend broke his exact same bone from punching a wall like 6 months ago and it is sore.
Ward doesn't duck anyone just look a his resume, just 28 years old and he's got wins over Green, Bika, Miranda, Kessler, Froch, Dawson, Abraham.

You probably already know this but I'll say it anyway. Guys like Russian already have their mind made up about certain fighters. But it's not because of that particular fighters actions, it's more because of their race and sometimes nationality.
Anyway, good luck at changing his mind. Maybe after you bleach Ward's skin and move him to Russia/Europe you might have a better shot at it.

I'm not making anything up; it's quite clear. A lot of people just don't speak on it. It's probably 2 or 3 more guys just like him that I won't name.
