The Philadelphia 76ers have roped in guard Ivey in their team by signing a multiyear contract with him on Monday and the details of the signing amount has not yet been disclosed. The signing of Ivey will definitely bring the much needed boost to the 76ers and both Ivey and the Philadelphia 76ers management are thrilled about signing the new contract. The well built guard has been in tremendous form off late and has a career record of 1.6 rebounds, 2.1 assists, around 20 minutes and 5.6 points per game. The Philadelphia 76ers fans are very much excited to see Ivey in the team and there is no doubt that the tickets to 76ers first game will be selling like hot cakes.

The NFL and its players association is busy updating their disability plans for retired players hoping that it would be easier for them and the retired players to extract greater benefits in the future.

This was officially confirmed on Tuesday evening by union spokesman Carl Francis.

After a significant improvement by Great Britain in the World Cup Race-Off, we are off to see some more Elite League Action as the players all head to Ipswich which is slated to Hold Swindon on Monday.

This will be an exciting event and the fans know it as most of the tickets have already been sold.

 The National League Central is shaping up to be a division that now features some of the best teams in the league but also now some of the best pitchers.  With the Chicago Cubs trading for Rich Harden and the Milwaukee Brewers acquiring C.C. Sabathia, it is making the division that much harder.  Previous seasons always show this division to be one of the hardest to win and this year will be no different.  The Chicago Cubs currently hold a lead over the St. Louis Cardinals and Milwaukee Brewers but all three teams have been hot with almost no room for error.  These teams will play each other a bunch in the next coming weeks and it will be very hard to seperate themselves from one another and fans are looking forward to an eventful rest of the season. 

C. C. Sabathia was in superb touch last Friday evening as he made short work of the Cincinnati Reds hitters with his amazing pitching skills that earned him 11 strike outs in eight innings and thereby sealed a 6-1 victory for the Reds. One of sports leading ace is heading for free agency after this 2008 season and the Indians general manager Mark Shapiro is determined to have his ace pitcher in the team for the next season as well. Sabathia is for now concentrating on his game entirely and wants to keep on winning games for the Indians this entire season. The Indians fans are buying tickets for future games in anticipation of more stupendous performance from Sabathia.
