It is kind of ironic that the team brought him into the league gave up the 500th home run of his career, but that is exactly what happen. Gary Sheffield hit his 500th home run off the Brewers and helped the Mets beat the struggling Brewers.

Greg Biffle Wins In Phoenix

Greg Biffle and his Roush Fenway Racing team gambled their way to a record win Friday night as they won the Nationwide Series race at Phoenix International Raceway. He had to hold off Jason Leffler over several late restarts, and again on a final two-lap sprint to the finish. Leffler also chose not to pit on the last stop, a decision that moved him up to second, where he finished behind Biffle. The victory gave team owner Jack Roush 100 wins in the Nationwide Series.

Blogging Sports Network Playoff Predictions

NBA Basketball playoff prediction time is here and to be honest there really is only a handful of teams that you can count on making it to the NBA finals and a championship. Personally I think this year's NBA season especially in the playoffs could be very interesting. First we will look at the Eastern Conference where three teams will be the ones to watch. Boston, Cleveland, and Orlando are really the only three in my opinion have much of a chance.

Cleveland had the best record in the NBA and are very tough at home where they have the best record. If Boston has to play without Kevin Garnett it looks like the Celtics will have a tough time getting back to the NBA Finals. Now Orlando is the one team that can beat the Cavaliers home or away and it will come down to them and the Cavaliers. I like the Cavs and Lebron James to represent the east though.

In the Western Conference in my opinion it is going to come down to two teams and that is the New Orleans Hornets and the Los Angeles Lakers. San Antonio has to many people hurt and New Orleans matches up well against the Lakers. In the end though I like Kobe Bryant and the Lakers to outlast the Hornets and Chris Paul.

Celebrating Mother's Day With Flowers

Over the years it seems every family has different ways that they celebrate Mother's Day from a traditional Sunday dinner to even a stroll in the park. No matter how you celebrate the tradition the one thing that you can never get away from is the big role that flowers play in this holiday. Flowers mothers day over the years have also changed as people opinions about the holiday has as well. There was a time that red roses was all that was bought, but that is not the case anymore. 1800flowers has a great showcase of mothers day flowers for you to check out with great customer service and selection you just cannot go wrong.

Flowers mothers day will always be a vital part of our lives as we celebrate the love we have for our mothers. Flowers just help us show exactly how much they mean to us. Many times we are busy and never take the time to do it, but flowers always say you care and that will always be the case.

Bryon Leftwich Becomes A Buccaneer

According to various sources free-agent quarterback Byron Leftwich has agreed to a two-year deal with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, the Steelers and Redskins were also interested in Leftwich as well. Leftwich, 29, a first-round draft pick by the Jacksonville Jaguars out of Marshall in 2003, won a Super Bowl ring last season as a backup with the Steelers.

The 6-foot-5, 250-pounder has started just eight games since 2006, his last season with the Jaguars. He played for the Atlanta Falcons in 2007. Leftwich passed for 303 yards with two touchdowns in five appearances with the Steelers last season as Ben Roethlisberger’s backup. The Buccaneers now have a bunch of quarterbacks and they will need to decide who is going to run the ship under the new head coach. I will be interested to see how this all plays out in the end.
