Nike Pro Combat Jerseys coming back again

The Buckeyes faced Michigan last year in a new jersey. Fans were worried that those would be permanent, but they released a statement that it was only for one game. 

Now, according to many Buckeye sites, they will be wearing them again. It is unsure which game, but it has been confirmed that it is for a home game this year. If you would like to see a possible jersey, head over to Inside The Shoe and scroll down.

Personally, I am a fan of them, but many people don't like them. Either way, they were on the short list to wear them for a minimum of one game this year.

Ten of the top college football programs have been selected to wear uniquely designed Nike uniforms for at least one game during the 2010 season the company announced today.
The University of Alabama, Boise State University, University of Florida, University of Miami (FL), The Ohio State University, Oregon State University, University of Pittsburgh, Texas Christian University, Virginia Tech and West Virginia University will wear the innovative designs for a minimum of one  game on their schedules.  The dates of those games will be announced at the unveiling of the uniforms Sept. 1 in New York.

Jeanmar Gomez Suffers First Big-League Loss

Two bad pitches cost Jeanmar Gomez last night against Kansas City and Zack Greinke, as homers from Yuniesky Betancourt and Wilson Betemit lifted the Royals to a 2-1 victory over the Indians, Gomez’s first major league defeat.

Three Kansas City pitchers combined for three innings of scoreless relief in support of Greinke, with Joakim Soria earning his 34th save.

Fausto Carmona tries for his 12th win tonight as the Indians look to even the three-game set in K.C.

The Battle 'Royal' For Last Place

The sports world is no doubt holding its collective breath as it awaits a dream baseball match-up: Two teams in a dead-heat, middle of August, three game series, the winner of the series moves ahead of the loser of the series.

High drama!

But, seriously, the Indians open a three-game set tonight in Kansas City against the Royals as the Tribe begins a two-city road trip that will continue to Detroit this weekend. The pitching match-up actually does lend some drama to the proceedings, as undefeated Jeanmar Gomez goes for his fourth straight win against last year’s Cy Young Award winner, Zach Greinke.

Plenty of tickets still available for anyone making a quick junket to western Missouri.
