Herrmann's brace helps Monchengladbach down Leverkusen
Soccer Betting Lines
08/29/2010 -
Leverkusen, Germany (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - A pair of goals from Patrick Herrmann
propelled Monchengladbach to a 6-3 win over Bayer Leverkusen in a wild affair
at BayArena on Sunday.
Herrmann's opening goal in the 20th minute was canceled out four minutes later
by Eren Derdiyok, but goals from Roel Brouwers and Herrmann in the final five
minutes of the first half gave the visitors a 3-1 lead at the break.
Juan Arango extended the advantage to 4-1 before Arturo Vidal pulled a goal
back from the penalty spot. However, Monchengladbach continued to find the
back of the net as Mohamadou Idrissou and Marco Reus scored nine minutes apart
to make it 6-2, while Stefan Kiessling scored a consolation goal in the 70th
minute.
Idrissou set up the first goal when he stole the ball from Vidal and crossed
for Herrmann to redirect past goalkeeper Rene Adler.
Derdiyok equalized four minutes later when he headed home a cross from Gonzalo
Castro, but a surge at the end of the first half from Monchengladbach put the
team up two goals at the break.
Adler was unable to keep hold of a long-range shot from Thorben Marx, allowing
Brouwers to pounce on the rebound, while Herrmann fired home his second goal
of the game from just inside the top of the box.
A well-placed free kick from Arango found the upper-right corner of the net
from 30 yards, while Leverkusen cut its deficit to 4-2 when Vidal drew a foul
on Marx inside the penalty area and converted the subsequent spot kick.
However, the visitors put the result out of reach over the next nine minutes
with Idrissou putting a rebound past Adler from Arango's shot and Reus beating
the keeper from long range with a powerful left-footed effort.
Kiessling made the most of a mistake by Monchengladbach goalkeeper Logan
Bailly one minute later to cap the scoring.
In Sunday's other match, Borussia Dortmund scored three times in the first 37
minutes en route to a 3-1 victory at Stuttgart.

El Duque expected to throw Tuesday
PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. -- New York Mets pitcher Orlando Hernandez, sidelined at spring training because of arthritis in his neck, is expected to resume throwing on Tuesday.
Hernandez received a cortisone shot Thursday after leaving camp and returning to New York to have his neck examined. The 41-year-old right-hander is penciled in as the team's No. 2 starter behind Tom Glavine.
El Duque's health is a major issue for the Mets, who won the NL East in 2007 and came within one victory of the World Series. Their aging and unsettled rotation is a big question mark this year.
MySportsbook.com has the Mets as -110 favorites to repeat as NL East champions odds.
Hernandez went 11-11 with a 4.66 ERA last season, including 9-7 with a 4.09 ERA in 20 starts after the Mets acquired him from Arizona in late May. But he missed the playoffs because of a torn calf muscle.
New York already is without Pedro Martinez, out until at least midseason following rotator cuff surgery. Among those competing for starting jobs are prospects Mike Pelfrey, Philip Humber and Jason Vargas, plus veterans Chan Ho Park, Jorge Sosa and Aaron Sele.
Notes: Mets manager Willie Randolph is excited about two new utility players he could have on his bench: Damion Easley and David Newhan. ''Their value is really all over the place,'' Randolph said. Easley can play anywhere in the infield and could be used as an emergency outfielder, though Randolph said he would prefer to keep the veteran in the infield. Newhan, meanwhile, can play second base, third or any outfield position for the Mets. ''I love versatility,'' Randolph said. ''I love guys that can give me options when I need them to step in.''

NFL Football Trash Talk
Trash talk has a place in every competitive endeavor (except baseball; those stirrup-wearers are too busy chewing on their sunflower seeds and their supplements to worry about what their opponents are doing).
Fantasy sports is no exception. Any intelligent discussion of the subject
would probably start with a thesis statement or a definition of terms.
Thankfully, this wont be an intelligent discussion.
Let me just say that I am happy to take a place in this space alongside my talented colleagues, even our commissioner. (You should see how she bleats like a demented paper boy about league fees on our fantasy site).
Trash talking, I would argue, is primarily about amusing your friends,
their sheeplike demeanors and sloping foreheads notwithstanding. The best place I have found for football trash talking is at www.SportsAlarm.com.
Beyond the entertainment factor, though, I would recognize that the
sophomoric ritual has one advantage, when properly applied. It magnifies
your fantasy triumphs and mitigates your fantasy failures by transforming
the eventual point total into an afterthought. Winning makes it seem like
your opponent really is a truss-owning, lapel-pin-wearing nitwit. And in
defeat, trash talk can be the air bag to break the fall from your
hyperbolic heights. The plug-necked yahoos on your team, you can say,
will be sacking groceries by the end of the season.
The best trash talk, in my view, is layered and nuanced. And it doesnt
focus only on your opponents team. It picks apart your opponent. The idea
is to create a shock-and-awe-scale blizzard of nonsense, and the goal is to
make your opponent drop his hands from his keyboard in exasperation.
What team does your opponent root for? Accuse a Giants fan of having a Joe Namath pillowcase. Wheres your opponent from? Give a look of concern no matter his reply, then say, I'll try to type slower for you next time. Is your opponent into politics? Label everyone a tax-and-spend corporate shill.
Cap all that with a liberal application of irrelevance. For instance, dont just conclude by saying your opponent is a twerp who drafts like my grandmother. Say that your opponent is a sweater-wearing, eyebrow-plucking twerp who drafts his team about as well as Zsa Zsa Gabor gave acceptance speeches at the Oscars. By the time your foe makes sense of that, his starting running back will have had puppies.
But what about you? Hmm? Recall a memorable slam? Have a tried-and-true technique? Know someone who seems impervious to insult? Take a moment and tells us about it. Put together some (fit-for-publication) thoughts. You wont be too busy returning phone messages from your friends, Im sure, to reply.
In addition to the trash talking, the Sports Alarm has a huge gallery of high resolution pictures of beautiful women and models in bikinis. The most popular models are: Lindsay Lohan, Carrie Underwood, Alessandra Ambrosio, and Paris Hilton.
