Your new home for a daily sports fix
Today I am passing the torch to my good friend EB Meles. Check out E.B.'s Eye On Sports for E.B.’s take on the latest news and notes from the world of sports.
ACC preview and Favre signs with the Vikings
ACC: Wreckin' crew
Even after leading the ACC in total offense last season and demolishing intrastate rival Georgia, people are still doubting Georgia Tech's triple option. Paul Johnson can only laugh, Dennis Dodd says. ACC preview

Finally Favre
Another year, another aborted retirement for Brett Favre -- he is a Viking. If Minnesota wants to see how this ends, cue up the '08 Jets team video, Clark Judge says. Pete Prisco sees no good for the Vikes in the deal.
Wolfson: Arrival | Ratto: Camp? | No. 17 | B/R | Yo!
Flat-out nutty
Injury season kicked into high gear last week, with Adrian Beltre taking the most painful hit of them all in, ahem, a ball-meets-ball collision. Players, protect yourselves -- Larry Dobrow needs you for his Power Rankings.

Steelers camp tour and the Big East preview
Camp tour: Steelers
How relaxed is Steelers camp? Ving Rhames gets more attention than Hines Ward. It's not exactly how most champs prep for a repeat run, but this group might make it work, Mike Freeman says. Story | Video: Freeman

Big East: It's a Cincy
Cincinnati is a lonely football outpost no longer. With Brian Kelly building a winning program -- and sudden hometown support for the Bearcats -- Dennis Dodd recalls the emergence of a Big East titan of yore. Preview
Dodd: Paulus and 'Cuse | Big East | All-Decade | Talk!
Armed with cash
This deal is worth the wait for Stephen Strasburg. After pushing talks right up to the final seconds, the top pick agrees to a record $15.67 million contract with the Nationals. It's a win-win situation, Scott Miller says.
Miller: M's agree with No. 2 pick; Padres No. 3 | What do you think?
Jets camp tour and Yang surprises Tiger
Camp tour: Jets
Yes, the Jets invested big-time to land Mark Sanchez in the draft. Yes, the USC quarterback looks great early. But Clark Judge says a rough early schedule could mean a delayed coronation. Full story | Video: Judge
Jets: Five things | Judge: Eli to Sanchez
Big bang for Yang
In one of the biggest upsets in a major, South Korea's Y.E. Yang defeats Tiger Woods by three strokes to win the PGA. Yang, whose eagle on 14 gives him the lead for good, does the unthinkable, Steve Elling says.

Pro or con?
It was the self-loathing that clinched it for Gregg Doyel, who sheds his cynicism and is rooting for Michael Vick to make it. Mike Freeman has seen this liar's work before, and won't be fooled again by 'Mike Slick.'
Judge | Ratto | Prisco | Extra work | Speak up!
Vick signs with the Eagles and Woods holds lead
Wings of change
The Eagles are giving Michael Vick another chance. The former Falcon will receive a one-year contract with an option for a second season. Prisco: Why? | Judge: Makes sense | Freeman: McNabb disrespected
Video: Conference, 11 a.m. ET | Noonan | 60 Minutes: Sun. | Yo!
Tiger leads at PGA
Tiger Woods 'plods' to a 5-under 67 and to move one in front of Padraig Harrington at the PGA. Steve Elling says pity the field -- Tiger has won his last four majors when leading after Round 1. | LIVE! Round 2 scores

Tiger takes charge and Leftwich gets another shot
Tiger takes charge
In his last chance to win a major in '09, Tiger Woods wraps his Round 1 with a one-stroke lead over Padraig Harrington at the PGA Championship. Phil Mickelson is part of the afternoon group. | Leaderboard | Tiger

Rarified Bear
Danny Watkins hails from hockey-crazed Canada, so forgive his lack of football knowledge. But the firefighter-turned-Baylor left tackle is catching on with help from ex-Bear Jason Smith, Dennis Dodd says. Full story
Dodd: Griffin raising hopes | Risers, fallers: Bears up | Hey Bears!
Camp tour: Bucs
Byron Leftwich looked destined for the NFL bust bin. But Jacksonville's No. 1 pick in 2003 has new life with a golden chance to open the season calling the signals in Tampa Bay, Pete Prisco says. Story | Video: Prisco
