      Wednesday's List of 13: Random mid-week thoughts........

      13) Bad Karma Dept: Tampa Rays discuss signing Barry Bonds one day; the next day, their best pitcher (Scott Kazmir) walks off field without throwing a pitch, complaining of discomfort in his elbow. It is never good news to see the words "elbow" and "MRI" in the same sentence.

      12) Freddy Garcia won’t be ready to pitch until June or July, but he is going to be a key midseason pickup; Mets are said to be most interested.

      11) Boxer Floyd Mayweather has apparently signed $20M deal with WWE to appear at Wrestlemania, which is outdoors at the Citrus Bowl in Orlando next month. As the old song goes, "The lure of easy money has a very strong appeal……"

      10) 34% of all the doctors in this country were 55+ years old in 2006, which begs the question as to whether we’re going to have a doctor shortage in the near future. Medical schools are now admitting more students, in hopes of cutting this shortage off at the pass.

      9) Surprisingly high college hoop teams in the RPI: Xavier 7th, Vanderbilt 10th, Drake 11th. Vandy will go higher after their big win against Tennessee Tuesday night.

      8) Big Sky Conference suspended the three refs who cheated Idaho State Sunday. Bengals’ game with Montana was tied as clock wound down, and Montana player called timeout, as a replay showed, before the horn blew—problem is, Montana didn’t have any timeouts left. Refs got together, didn’t look at replay and determined that timeout was acknowledged as the horn sounded, sending game to OT, where Montana won by 11. In reality, Idaho State should have shot free throws for the win in regulation.

      7) Bradley suspended Daniel Ruffin, its point guard, arguably its best player, after domestic violence arrest Sunday, then lost at home to Southern Illinois, ending a hot streak. You wonder why coaches get gray hairs, or lose their hair?

      6) Schedule maker beat Tennessee last night; Vanderbilt beat them three nights after Vols won in Memphis. Very tough for any team to win two tough road games in such a short time, so Tennessee's first stint as the #1 team is very short.

      5) Warriors are 8-1 in games decided by three or less points; Hornets are 6-1, Rockets 8-2…….Memphis, on other hand, is
      1-9 in such games.

      4) Yao Ming might be out for year with stress fracture, which has to be especially horrible news in China, which hosts the Olympics late this summer. The injury has to cast doubt as to whether Yao will be ready to play by then, or if the Rockets would even let him play.

      3) Lebron James has played 311 more minutes than any other Cavalier, and taken 459 more shots.

      2) My #1 question on the Kelvin Sampson fiasco is this: Why wouldn’t he buy his own cellphone to make the impermissible calls, instead of a school-issued phone? That way, the school would never see the bills.

      1) By the way, any major league organization that hasn’t at least tossed around possibility of signing a veteran free agent (Bonds-Piazza-Lofton, et al) isn’t doing its job. You might just dismiss ideas out of hand, but you have to at least bring them up for discussion. Its part of the job.

                          Pick 'n' roll: Wednesday's best NBA bets
                          ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                          Chicago at Indiana (-2, 280 1/2)

                          The Indiana Pacers are 13 games below .500 for the first time since 1992 and two of their best players are out indefinitely with injuries. Jamaal Tinsley and Jermaine O'Neal both have knee problems and it hasn't helped while the Pacers have lost 12 of the last 15 games.

                          Tinsley, who is averaging 11.9 points and 3.6 rebounds per game, was expected back last week. It turns out that he has yet to resume practice. O'Neal was originally meant to miss just two weeks, but there have been persistent rumors that he could actually miss the rest of the season.

                          The loss of those two players, and the uncertainty surrounding their return, has been a disaster for the Pacers. They have lost and failed to cover in four of their last five games and were hammered 108-95 the last time they faced the Chicago Bulls (Jan 23).

                          Pick: Bulls +2


                          Cleveland at Boston (-7 1/2)

                          A Western swing that started with Boston's first three-game losing streak ended with two convincing wins and now the Celtics head home with renewed confidence. That could spell trouble for the new-look Cavs as they try to find their feet.

                          Cleveland traded for four new players last Thursday and they were all thrown into the mix in games against Memphis and Milwaukee this week. But playing the Celts in Boston is a much tougher proposition and they have lost only four of 27 games there this season.

                          In addition, the Celtics have covered the spread in three of their last four games at TD Banknorth Garden, where they already beat Cleveland 80-70 this season.

                          Pick: Celtics


                          Charlotte at New York (-6, 197)

                          The Bobcats will be without their leading scorer when they travel to Madison Square Garden Wednesday night. Gerald Wallace will miss at least two weeks after suffering a concussion in a loss to Sacramento last Friday night.

                          It's the fourth concussion in four seasons for the veteran forward, who is averaging 20.6 points per game. He is expected to be out for at least two weeks with the blow.

                          The injury is a huge loss to a Charlotte side that is already struggling. The Bobcats have lost 10 of their last 11 games, covering the spread just twice over that time. Jared Dudley, who is averaging just six points per game this season, will replace Wallace in the lineup.

                          Pick: Bobcats +6

                            Ice picks: Wednesday's best NHL bets
                            ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                            Nashville at Buffalo (-140, 5.5)

                            Sabres management can try to spin the Brian Campbell trade any way they like, but the fact remains that they just traded away what was left of the team's beating heart after they let Chris Drury and Daniel Briere walk last offseason.

                            Apart from everything Campbell did on the ice, he was a great team guy in that locker room and the Sabres may miss that more than anything for the next while. Pulling the trigger on the deal was tough enough for GM Darcy Regier and coach Lindy Ruff, let alone the tight-knit Sabres locker room.

                            Buffalo picks up right winger Steve Bernier and a first-round pick in the deal. Bernier is a 6-foot-2, 225-pound prospect that had 13 goals as a top six forward with the Sharks.

                            Pick: Nashville +120


                            San Jose at Columbus (+120, 5)

                            San Jose has a lot of weapons once it gets the puck deep into its opposition's end - it's getting there that's been an issue. That's where former Sabres defenseman Brian Campbell is supposed to come in when he makes his San Jose debut tonight.

                            Campbell is fast and smooth enough to dig the puck out of the corner and get it to Joe Thornton and Co., plus the blue-liner should be a great fit on the power play.

                            While San Jose was reloading for the stretch run at the deadline, Columbus was in sell mode after failing to acquire Brad Richards. The Blue Jackets shipped captain Adam Foote and veteran forward Sergei Fedorov out of town for draft picks and prospect Ted Ruth.

                            Pick: San Jose -135


                            Phoenix at Chicago (-130, 5.5)

                            Wayne Gretzky knows exactly what Denis Savard is going through right now. Before the Coyotes picked up goaltender Ilya Bryzgalov, play between the pipes was a sore spot for the Desert Dogs. On some days, depending on the Great One's demeanor, it stilll is.

                            Savard and the Blackhawks are missing Nikolai Khabibulin in a bad way. The veteran netminder is having back trouble and hasn't been between the pipes since he blanked the Wild a week ago. Since then, Patrick Lalime and Corey Crawford have allowed a combined 11 regulation goals in just two games.

                            Phoenix, meanwhile, wants to start this mini two-game road trip off right after shutting out St. Louis 2-0.

                            Pick: Phoenix +115
