Congratulations to both teams, and good luck to Goodlettsville in their game against Japan.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Update 3:45 p.m.\u003c/strong> Ugh. Goodlettsville responds in non-demoralized fashion. They immediately put up four in the top of the seventh. You know what? This looks a lot like a Little League game. Still nobody out, and here comes Lorenzo Butler, who already has three homers. He walks. Another two runs come in on outs. They've been going at it for over three hours now. Tenn. won't let up -- a double drives in another. 22-15. Then - this is insane -- Jason Brown drives one over the wall. And just like that, Tenn. has their huge lead back. If Petaluma ties it up in the bottom of the inning this time, Tennessee is going to secede from the Union. Get this: open mic on Petaluma's coach, struggling to summon a Knute Rocknesque exhortation in light of recent events, and referring to his team's last 10-run inning: \"All right...I guess we do the same thing, right?\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Update 3:32 p.m.\u003c/strong> The side is now out. But in their presumptive last at-bat, the Boys of 'Luma score 10 runs to tie the score. That deserves about two exclamation points. Down to their last three outs, they score 10 runs to tie the score!!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Update 3:32 p.m.\u003c/strong> Unbelievable: Bradley Smith hits a double; Kempton Brandis hits a homer; Hance Smith hits a homer. Tie!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Update 3:28 p.m.\u003c/strong> Infield single for Logan Douglas. 15-11. Danny Marzo flies out to center. Two out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Update 3:26 p.m.\u003c/strong> Slow roller to second drives in another. But now there's one out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Update 3:22 p.m.\u003c/strong> Holy cow! Cole Tomei hits a scorcher past the left fielder for a double. Two in, score now 15-9, men on second and third and still nobody out. Tennessee's coach has seen enough; here comes a pitching change.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Update 3:19 p.m.\u003c/strong> A bloop to center scores another. 15-7, bases loaded, no outs. Duelling chants from the crowd: \"Pet-a-lu-ma!\" and \"De-fense!\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Update 3:16 p.m.\u003c/strong> Petaluma's got something going: bases loaded, no outs, one run in.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Update 2:56 p.m.\u003c/strong> Goodlettsville's \u003ca href=\"http://llws2012.bbstats.pointstreak.com/player.html?playerid=362162\">Lorenzo Butler\u003c/a> hits his \u003cem>third\u003c/em> three-run home run of the day, giving him nine count 'em nine RBIs in the game.

But I refuse to participate in a process that is so one-sided and unfair. Regardless of what Travis Tygart says, there is zero physical evidence to support his outlandish and heinous claims. The only physical evidence here is the hundreds of controls I have passed with flying colors. I made myself available around the clock and around the world. In-competition. Out of competition. Blood. Urine. Whatever they asked for I provided. What is the point of all this testing if, in the end, USADA will not stand by it?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>From the beginning, however, this investigation has not been about learning the truth or cleaning up cycling, but about punishing me at all costs. I am a retired cyclist, yet USADA has lodged charges over 17 years old despite its own 8-year limitation. As respected organizations such as UCI and USA Cycling have made clear, USADA lacks jurisdiction even to bring these charges. The international bodies governing cycling have ordered USADA to stop, have given notice that no one should participate in USADA’s improper proceedings, and have made it clear the pronouncements by USADA that it has banned people for life or stripped them of their accomplishments are made without authority. And as many others, including USADA’s own arbitrators, have found, there is nothing even remotely fair about its process. USADA has broken the law, turned its back on its own rules, and stiff-armed those who have tried to persuade USADA to honor its obligations. At every turn, USADA has played the role of a bully, threatening everyone in its way and challenging the good faith of anyone who questions its motives or its methods, all at U.S. taxpayers’ expense. For the last two months, USADA has endlessly repeated the mantra that there should be a single set of rules, applicable to all, but they have arrogantly refused to practice what they preach. On top of all that, USADA has allegedly made deals with other riders that circumvent their own rules as long as they said I cheated. Many of those riders continue to race today. \u003ca href=\"http://lancearmstrong.com/news-events/lance-armstongs-statement-of-august-23-2012\">Full statement\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Armstrong's statement came just three days after a \u003ca href=\"http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/early-lead/post/lance-armstrongs-lawsuit-dismissed-by-federal-judge/2012/08/20/b02efab0-eaed-11e1-a80b-9f898562d010_blog.html\">federal judge threw out his lawsuit\u003c/a> against USADA. The suit contended that the agency lacks jurisdiction in the matter and that Armstrong's constitutional rights were being violated by its process of arbitration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Today's news brings to mind Armstrong's appearance in May on -- of all places -- the first episode of The Gavin Newsom show on Current TV. At that point, Armstrong was feeling a bit more chipper in light of federal prosecutors having dropped their own investigation a couple of months prior.

But I refuse to participate in a process that is so one-sided and unfair. Regardless of what Travis Tygart says, there is zero physical evidence to support his outlandish and heinous claims. The only physical evidence here is the hundreds of controls I have passed with flying colors. I made myself available around the clock and around the world. In-competition. Out of competition. Blood. Urine. Whatever they asked for I provided. What is the point of all this testing if, in the end, USADA will not stand by it?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>From the beginning, however, this investigation has not been about learning the truth or cleaning up cycling, but about punishing me at all costs. I am a retired cyclist, yet USADA has lodged charges over 17 years old despite its own 8-year limitation. As respected organizations such as UCI and USA Cycling have made clear, USADA lacks jurisdiction even to bring these charges. The international bodies governing cycling have ordered USADA to stop, have given notice that no one should participate in USADA’s improper proceedings, and have made it clear the pronouncements by USADA that it has banned people for life or stripped them of their accomplishments are made without authority. And as many others, including USADA’s own arbitrators, have found, there is nothing even remotely fair about its process. USADA has broken the law, turned its back on its own rules, and stiff-armed those who have tried to persuade USADA to honor its obligations. At every turn, USADA has played the role of a bully, threatening everyone in its way and challenging the good faith of anyone who questions its motives or its methods, all at U.S. taxpayers’ expense. For the last two months, USADA has endlessly repeated the mantra that there should be a single set of rules, applicable to all, but they have arrogantly refused to practice what they preach. On top of all that, USADA has allegedly made deals with other riders that circumvent their own rules as long as they said I cheated. Many of those riders continue to race today. \u003ca href=\"http://lancearmstrong.com/news-events/lance-armstongs-statement-of-august-23-2012\">Full statement\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Armstrong's statement came just three days after a \u003ca href=\"http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/early-lead/post/lance-armstrongs-lawsuit-dismissed-by-federal-judge/2012/08/20/b02efab0-eaed-11e1-a80b-9f898562d010_blog.html\">federal judge threw out his lawsuit\u003c/a> against USADA. The suit contended that the agency lacks jurisdiction in the matter and that Armstrong's constitutional rights were being violated by its process of arbitration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Today's news brings to mind Armstrong's appearance in May on -- of all places -- the first episode of The Gavin Newsom show on Current TV.

The office of the Mayor of Virginia Beach confirmed to FOX40 a basketball team is moving to their coastal city. While the mayor’s office could not confirm which team is moving, a source within the administration has told local outlets it is the Sacramento Kings.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>The stories originated with a \u003ca href=\"http://insidebiz.com/news/sources-sacramento-kings-may-move-virginia-beach-arena-deal-works\">report on Virginia's Inside Business site\u003c/a>, which relied almost entirely on anonymous sources but got detailed enough about ostensible plans to imbue it with a certain ring of truth:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>Media giant Comcast will guarantee a 25-year lease on a new arena, supposedly for naming rights and for broadcasting the games, sources said...\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>City officials and the Maloof family are expected to announce Wednesday that the Kings will land in Virginia Beach, sources said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Virginia Beach-based Meridian Group, a marketing communications firm, is expected to handle the public relations for the announcement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To finance the arena, the Virginia Beach Hotel-Motel Association has indicated it would support a $1 hike in the lodging tax, sources said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In addition, the Atlantic Coast Conference has agreed to place Virginia Beach on its list as a future venue for college ACC conference tournaments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A well-known concert promoter – Live Nation – is associated with the deal for the new arena and the team’s relocation to Virginia Beach, sources say.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The new arena will be built across from the Virginia Beach Convention Center, adjacent to the former Norfolk Southern Corp. rail track and a proposed site for a light rail station.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Comcast, Live Nation and Global Spectrum have come to the city,” Virginia Beach Mayor Will Sessoms said. “They would guarantee us a professional sports team\" if the deal goes through.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>\u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Almost immediately, some began questioning the story.

One blogger debunked the details published in the original Inside Business story:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>None of this makes any sense.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>1. Virginia Beach may be the biggest city in Virginia, but it's smaller than Sacramento and a much smaller media market. The Hampton Roads area has approximately 1.6 million people, about half of the Sacramento metropolitan area. Sacramento is also the 19th largest media market in the country, while the Norfolk area is 42nd. (Source)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>2. The Maloofs don't have any money to build a new hotel. They might say they do, but actions speak louder than words.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3. The article says the Maloofs own the Palm Hotels. This is false, as they lost most of their stake and now just own 2%.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>4. The Maloofs would not announce a move 2 months prior to the season starting, particularly to a city where no arena has been built. Ticket sales would absolutely plummet, boycotts would start, etc.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>5. David Stern very recently said that if the Kings wanted to move to Anaheim, they would not be allowed to. That's in one of the biggest media markets in the country, and one with an arena already built.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>6. The likely costs of relocation would cost more than the city of Sacramento asked from the Maloofs to build a new arena in Sacramento, which they shot down.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>7. About a billion different things need to happen before a team can move. The team must apply to relocate, the Board of Governors needs to approve, a new arena needs to be built, numerous contracts need to be signed. None of this has happened yet.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I could go on, but I don't think I'm going to get super upset over this likely false report. I sincerely doubt that Virginia Beach poses any threat to the future of the Sacramento Kings. \u003ca href=\"http://www.sactownroyalty.com/2012/8/23/3263018/new-report-kings-may-move-to-virginia-beach\">Full post\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>So what do the Kings have to say about all this?

We are not going to discuss which cities have approached the team and are not going to comment on every rumor. I can tell you that the Kings are 100 percent focused on putting a winning team on the court,” said Rose in an email to CBS13.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rose also denied the Maloofs will be at a news conference in Virginia Beach next week.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Sacramento Bee is now on the case, and \u003ca href=\"http://blogs.sacbee.com/breaking_news/2012/08/056999.html?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter#mi_rss=Latest%20News\">this report\u003c/a> would only seem to add to the mystery. The headline: \"Many Virginia Beach leaders just learning about NBA team\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>Political leaders in Virginia Beach either declined comment or said they had learned of the possibilty of the Kings moving from reporters and from a press conference the mayor called today to announce that Comcast would present a proposal next week to bring a professional team to town, but that no specific team was named.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Terry Kelley, vice president of the Meridian Group, which reportedly will handle public relations for the plan, said in a phone message that he could only confirm there will be a press conference next Tuesday after the Virginia Beach council meets.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"As far as the Sacramento Kings, I'm not privy to any of those discussions,\" Kelley added.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Comcast Spectacor spokesman Ike Richman issued a statement saying that his firm and Live Nation \"are always looking for new opportunities to expand our business in the area,\" but declined to provide specifics about what is planned for next week.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We will refrain from making any comments until we are in Virginia Beach on Tuesday,\" he wrote. \"At our presentation on Tuesday we will elaborate our collective plans for a new arena.

The office of the Mayor of Virginia Beach confirmed to FOX40 a basketball team is moving to their coastal city. While the mayor’s office could not confirm which team is moving, a source within the administration has told local outlets it is the Sacramento Kings.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>The stories originated with a \u003ca href=\"http://insidebiz.com/news/sources-sacramento-kings-may-move-virginia-beach-arena-deal-works\">report on Virginia's Inside Business site\u003c/a>, which relied almost entirely on anonymous sources but got detailed enough about ostensible plans to imbue it with a certain ring of truth:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>Media giant Comcast will guarantee a 25-year lease on a new arena, supposedly for naming rights and for broadcasting the games, sources said...\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>City officials and the Maloof family are expected to announce Wednesday that the Kings will land in Virginia Beach, sources said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Virginia Beach-based Meridian Group, a marketing communications firm, is expected to handle the public relations for the announcement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To finance the arena, the Virginia Beach Hotel-Motel Association has indicated it would support a $1 hike in the lodging tax, sources said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In addition, the Atlantic Coast Conference has agreed to place Virginia Beach on its list as a future venue for college ACC conference tournaments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A well-known concert promoter – Live Nation – is associated with the deal for the new arena and the team’s relocation to Virginia Beach, sources say.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The new arena will be built across from the Virginia Beach Convention Center, adjacent to the former Norfolk Southern Corp. rail track and a proposed site for a light rail station.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Comcast, Live Nation and Global Spectrum have come to the city,” Virginia Beach Mayor Will Sessoms said. “They would guarantee us a professional sports team\" if the deal goes through.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>\u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

One blogger debunked the details published in the original Inside Business story:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>None of this makes any sense.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>1. Virginia Beach may be the biggest city in Virginia, but it's smaller than Sacramento and a much smaller media market. The Hampton Roads area has approximately 1.6 million people, about half of the Sacramento metropolitan area. Sacramento is also the 19th largest media market in the country, while the Norfolk area is 42nd. (Source)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>2. The Maloofs don't have any money to build a new hotel. They might say they do, but actions speak louder than words.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3. The article says the Maloofs own the Palm Hotels. This is false, as they lost most of their stake and now just own 2%.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>4. The Maloofs would not announce a move 2 months prior to the season starting, particularly to a city where no arena has been built. Ticket sales would absolutely plummet, boycotts would start, etc.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>5. David Stern very recently said that if the Kings wanted to move to Anaheim, they would not be allowed to. That's in one of the biggest media markets in the country, and one with an arena already built.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>6. The likely costs of relocation would cost more than the city of Sacramento asked from the Maloofs to build a new arena in Sacramento, which they shot down.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>7. About a billion different things need to happen before a team can move. The team must apply to relocate, the Board of Governors needs to approve, a new arena needs to be built, numerous contracts need to be signed. None of this has happened yet.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I could go on, but I don't think I'm going to get super upset over this likely false report. I sincerely doubt that Virginia Beach poses any threat to the future of the Sacramento Kings. \u003ca href=\"http://www.sactownroyalty.com/2012/8/23/3263018/new-report-kings-may-move-to-virginia-beach\">Full post\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>So what do the Kings have to say about all this? From \u003ca href=\"http://www.sactownroyalty.com/2012/8/23/3263018/new-report-kings-may-move-to-virginia-beach\">CBS Sacramento\u003c/a>:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>We haven’t talked to Virginia Beach,” Joe Maloof told CBS13.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kings spokesman Eric Rose also wouldn’t confirm the report, but said the team has drawn interest from several cities through the years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The Kings have been approached by numerous cities interested [in] buying the team and relocating it. We are not going to discuss which cities have approached the team and are not going to comment on every rumor. I can tell you that the Kings are 100 percent focused on putting a winning team on the court,” said Rose in an email to CBS13.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rose also denied the Maloofs will be at a news conference in Virginia Beach next week.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Sacramento Bee is now on the case, and \u003ca href=\"http://blogs.sacbee.com/breaking_news/2012/08/056999.html?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter#mi_rss=Latest%20News\">this report\u003c/a> would only seem to add to the mystery. The headline: \"Many Virginia Beach leaders just learning about NBA team\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>Political leaders in Virginia Beach either declined comment or said they had learned of the possibilty of the Kings moving from reporters and from a press conference the mayor called today to announce that Comcast would present a proposal next week to bring a professional team to town, but that no specific team was named.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Terry Kelley, vice president of the Meridian Group, which reportedly will handle public relations for the plan, said in a phone message that he could only confirm there will be a press conference next Tuesday after the Virginia Beach council meets.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"As far as the Sacramento Kings, I'm not privy to any of those discussions,\" Kelley added.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Comcast Spectacor spokesman Ike Richman issued a statement saying that his firm and Live Nation \"are always looking for new opportunities to expand our business in the area,\" but declined to provide specifics about what is planned for next week.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We will refrain from making any comments until we are in Virginia Beach on Tuesday,\" he wrote. \"At our presentation on Tuesday we will elaborate our collective plans for a new arena. Despite preliminary reports, no specific professional sports team from any league has been identified as the potential tenant for this building.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The city's vice mayor, Louis R. Jones, said the council had been contacted about a proposal to move a team there but added that he knew few specifics. \u003ca href=\"http://blogs.sacbee.com/breaking_news/2012/08/056999.html?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter#mi_rss=Latest%20News\">Full article\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
