| The San Diego Chargers finally looked like world-beaters. Too bad it might be too late. LaDainian Tomlinson scored on a 3-yard run against his favorite punching bag and Philip Rivers threw two touchdown passes, including a 59-yarder to Vincent Jackson, to give the Chargers a 27-7 lead over the Oakland Raiders after three quarters Thursday night. |
| The Pittsburgh Penguins found a simple way to hold on to a lead, for a change: Play a team that's having trouble scoring -- no matter who its coach is. Petr Sykora scored two goals, Sidney Crosby had four assists and the Penguins routed Carolina 5-2 Thursday night to spoil the start of Paul Maurice's second stint coaching the slumping Hurricanes. |
| Not even a cheap shot could keep Blake Griffin from leading No. 6 Oklahoma to another victory. Griffin scored 11 of his 25 points after getting hit with an elbow in the second half, and the Sooners staved off a rally by Southern California for a contentious 73-72 win Thursday night in the Big 12/Pac-10 Hardwood Series. |
| Hasheem Thabeet had 21 points and 18 rebounds, Jeff Adrien added 18 points, and No. 2 Connecticut survived a big scare, holding off Buffalo 66-64 on Thursday night. The Bulls (3-3) nearly upset then-No. 2 Pittsburgh at Alumni Arena two years ago, losing 70-67 after leading by 10 points with 14 minutes left. |
| Federal prosecutors dropped four counts of lying to a grand jury against Barry Bonds, leaving him to face trial next year on 10 counts of making false statements plus an additional obstruction of justice charge. Bonds faces the same potential sentence range -- probation to roughly two years in prison -- if convicted. |
