The Indiana Pacers are bringing aboard another big body. Jared Crick Jersey . ESPN reports that the Pacers are about to sign former All-Star forward Andrew Bynum. A two-time NBA Champion with the Los Angeles Lakers, Bynum has seen his career derailed by injuries. Traded as part of the four-way deal that brought Dwight Howard to the Lakers prior to the 2012-13 season, Bynum missed all of his only season with the Philadelphia 76ers with chronic knee injuries. After signing as a free agent with the Cleveland Cavaliers and struggling mightily, Bynum was dealt to the Chicago Bulls earlier this month for Luol Deng and was subsequently waived that same day. The 26-year old Bynum was averaging just 8.4 points and 5.3 rebounds per game in Cleveland. Brian Cushing Texans Jersey . That led me to go back and look at the years Halladay and Hamels were drafted. Oddly enough, they were both chosen 17th overall in the June draft; Halladay in 1995 and Hamels in 2002. The player drafted immediately ahead of Halladay was pitcher Joe Fontenot by the San Francisco Giants. He was later one of three prospects traded to the Marlins for closer Robb Nen, who went on to save 206 games over the next five years before calling it a career with 314 total saves.

Coetzee eagled the par-5 10th hole and birdied his closing three holes in a round that was just two shots more than his best on the European Tour, a 62 which equalled the Old Course record at St.SAINT JOHN, N.B. -- Scott Moir was teased about getting "misty" on the medal podium Saturday, as he sang along to the national anthem after winning Skate Canada International gold. Moir and partner Tessa Virtue had just captured their fifth Skate Canada Grand Prix title to kick off what will likely be their final season competing. "Misty? I was checking the Leafs score," Moir shot back, to much laughter. "I dont know whats wrong with me," he added. "Its emotional, I think for Tessa and I, hearing your anthem in your own country, its very special. "Weve been lucky to have some great opportunities, Olympic Games, many Skate Canadas . . . but its always special to stand up there to hear your national anthem and sing along to it. "Smelling the roses, if you will." Virtue, from London, Ont., and Moir, from Ilderton, Ont., scored 181.03 points, bringing the Harbour Station crowd to its feet with their elegant free dance to music by Russian composer Alexander Glazunov -- a program they call their "labour of love," set to a piece of music that has already seen 25 revisions and counting. They hope its the program that will propel them back to the top of the Olympic ice dance podium one more time. "Tessa and I, it was really about creating a moment with this program, and we were able to do that for ourselves, and hopefully fans felt it as well," Moir said. Canadian teammates Kaitlyn Weaver and Andrew Poje claimed silver with 175.23, while Americans Madison Hubbell and Zachary Donohue won bronze with 153.20. Virtue and Moir from skated to music from "The Seasons," a Russian ballet that has never been used in international competition and a piece of music their coach Marina Zoueva chose to appeal to Russian sensibilities at the Sochi Olympics. If last seasons free dance to "Carmen" was all drama and passion, "The Seasons" is silvery grace, more similar in style to their free program that won them gold at the Vancouver Games, but still unique, and packed full of intricate lifts and spins.

"Winning the Olympics is our main goal, but we know we cant do anything thats been done before, we dont want to be compared to anyone else. . .and having music that no one has ever skated to is motivating for us," Moir said. "We want to create a unique moment in our career. We have to stay true to ourselves and even when were trying to win the Olympics, were not willing to sell out to do it." The ballet represents the four seasons, but also represents the course of the Canadians career. The beginning is about their love for skating, the middle about their outside pressures and conflicts, and then rediscovering their love for skating. The final 30 seconds, Moir explained in his Coles Notes version, is meant to be the two in Sochi, "triumphing and achieving our goal." "One thing we wanted to make sure this season is we didnt try and repeat what we did in Vancouver. Its easy to go back and duplicate that but so much has changed, in the sport of ice dancing but also in our own skating and within our partnership. So Marina had a great vision of how she wanted this program," Virtue explained. "Its important to show the change of seasons, Glazunovs seasons, but also to relate to our story. "Theres so much to tell in the last 17 years and I think that makes us that more invested and connected to the program." In keeping with the seasons theme, Zoueva, who also coaches the Canadians top rivals, Americans Meryl Davis and Charlie White, said shes purposefully chosen four very different styles of skating for the past four seasons. "Last year Carmen was drama, conflict between man and woman and I used contemporary, very rough, and understated choreography," she said. "This program had to be a huge contrast, and it is super elegant, super classical." "I love it, I loved their performance, it was very emotional." wholesale nfl jerseyswholesale jerseys ' ' '
