As we rise to the news that the Cowboys have cut Terrell Owens, it just begs the question: could he reunite with McNabb?

Amar'e Stoudamire. Shaquille O'Neal. Vince Carter. Nate Robinson. Tracy McGrady. None of them are going anywhere. A lot of lesser names and expiring contracts got shuffled around today, but really... nothing changed. Houston sent Rafer Alston to Orlando, which is probably the only significant trade ...

NHL Closer Greg Wyshynski, of FanHouse and The Fourth Period. He is also the author of Glow Pucks And 10-Cent Beer, discusses what happened during today's NHL trade deadline. What the NHL Trade Deadline lacked in quantity, it made up for in "holy shit the Penguins just traded for Marian Hossa!" In t...
