Inter vs. Man City, Biggest Soccer game of 2010 in USA

You can argue Inter Milan vs. Manchester City is the most important soccer game to be played on US soil this year. Even thought it's just a preseason game. It certainly is the most interesting. First off, Inter Milan in defending Champions of Europe, this will be the first game for their new head coach Rafa Benitez. Man City has spend like a trillion dollars this summer on players. Which team will Mario Balotelli play for, I doubt he plays at all. The game will only be live on ESPN Deportes tomorrow (Saturday) at 8:00pm.

Spies inside Women's Tennis?

With all the spy news, it made us wonder if any one from the sporting world is involved in espionage. In the tennis world you have many women who moved to America at a young age, and assimilate into the culture, learn the language, and yet still return to their native countries for tennis matches. Coincidence? Have we finally figured out why Kournkova never got any better, she was too busy working on other things.

Maybe we should investigate these WTA players a little closer.

Jelean Jankovic
Bio:
Born: Belgrade, Serbia
Resides: Dubai
Insight: We'll JJ doesn't live in the US, but we know she spends a lot of time here. She speaks numerous languages, and loves to travel. We also know that she has infiltrated the highest level of the political circles as evidence by this picture. Besides Jelena just has the spy look.

Maria Kirilenko
Bio:
Born: Moscow, Russia
Resides: Moscow, Russia
Insight: She lives in Moscow, and that automatically puts her on the list. We'll not a super well known tennis player, she has been seen at some high profile social events here in the US. She's into fashion and as we've learned recently that too is a red flag. She's also a player who never really lived up to her potential, could she have been side tracked by other responsibilities????

Maria Sharapova
Bio:
Born: Nyagan, Russia
Resides: Bradenton, Florida
Insight: The most famous Russian tennis player, it would seem too obvious. But could she be living a double life? She moved to America at a young age, to train at the Bollettieri Tennis Academy. At age 9 IMG paid her $35k tuition fee, or was it the KGB??? We also know that she is an expert photographer. There definitely is a lot of dots that can be connected here.


Dominika Cibulková
Bio:
Born: Bratislava, Slovakia
Resides: Piešťany, Czechoslovakia
Insight: If you just said who is Dominika Cibulkova, we rest our case. See right under the radar.


RizzoSports - is not accusing any of this four nice young ladies as being spies, we're just saying Tiger athletes can some times have double lives...

Will Notre Dame Move Forward Under Kelly

I know a lot of eyes will be on Notre Dame and their new head coach Brian Kelly. Everyone knows Kelly is going with the spread offense, but forget about offense the Irish need defense. This year under new defense coordinator Bob Diaco, they’re moving to a 3-4 defense. Their defensive recruiting class was not highly rated, so unless someone emerges out of no where, they’ll probably struggle. While the buzz word on campus is “new”, I have the feeling their same “old” defense will again be their downfall. By the time they play Pitt in early October, I think we’ll know if Kelly is man or not.
