COLLEGE HOOPS:
Big Pitt game tonight, as they travel to #15 Oklahoma State. Hopefully we get a better performance than what we saw in Buffalo or Wisconsin.
CBA:
The Pittsburgh XPlosion fall to the Indiana Alleycats, 133-107. The loss drops the XPlosion to 0-7 in the 2007-06 campaign. That owner was right. People won't respect this team until they win a championship.
MLB:
The Pirates take another big step for 2007, adding catcher Einar Diaz, who hit .225 in class AAA last season.

NBA:

Dr. Z. gives us new Power Rankings...Steelers #1...I mean, #16. Forgot the "6".

RANDOM FUN STUFF:
SI's Swimsuit models pick the 20 best-looking athletes in sport. Evgeni Malkin did not make the cut.
