Sources tell Philly.com’s Kate Fagan that Comcast-Spectacor, the company that owns the Philadelphia 76ers, is planning on firing head coach Eddie Jordan. This is a complete shocker.

You may or may not have noticed, but we’ve pretty much ignored every other sport not named football today. We can’t help it. Football is our favorite, we admit, but there was clearly way more going on in the NFL today than with any other sport.

Allen Iverson is sure going through some issues. His NBA career is all but over after the team said that he’s done for the year. The reason he was supposedly done for the year is because he keeps taking time off to be with his sick daughter, who they can’t seem to diagnose. [...]
The Chicago Bulls have decided to shelve big-man Joakim Noah for three weeks as he tries to recover from plantar fasciitis. Noah has had this problem since mid-January and already missed 10 games. He’ll most likely miss another 10 at least.

Now, Shaq and team physician Richard Parker are headed to Baltimore to get [...]
