BEREA, Ohio -- Trent Richardsons ailing left knee may be more seriously injured than the Cleveland Browns thought The team issued a one-sentence statement Wednesday saying that the running back, picked No. Brian Cushing Jersey . 3 overall in Aprils draft, will see a specialist on Thursday. The statement says: "Trent Richardson is travelling to Pensacola, Fla., where he will have his left knee further evaluated by Dr. James Andrews tomorrow." Richardson, who played at Alabama, had an MRI in Cleveland on Tuesday. Results have not been revealed. He is going to see Andrews for a second opinion. Andrews has been Richardsons surgeon since the running back was a high school star. He performed the surgery to repair a torn meniscus in February. In most cases after such an operation, swelling in the knee is not uncommon and Richardson wore a protective sleeve on the leg during organized team activities and mini-camps in May and June. The Feb. 3 surgery caused him to miss some portions of the NFL combine before the draft. Nevertheless, Cleveland (No. 30 in the AP Pro32) traded up to select Richardson, who helped the Crimson Tide win a national championship last season. The Browns signed him to a four-year, $20.5 million contract. Richardson had impressed coaches in camp but he missed practice Tuesday. Since returning to the NFL in 1999 as an expansion team, the Browns have had more than their share of misfortune with first-round picks. Quarterback Tim Couch, picked No. 1 overall in 1999, was battered and bruised in three lacklustre seasons. Injuries to his hand and throwing arm contributed to his demise. Defensive end Courtney Brown, the No. 2 choice overall in 2000, never got into a groove because of a series of leg injuries. Then came running back William Green, who was in scrapes with the law and was stabbed by his fiance. A few years later, tight end Kellen Winslow Jr., missed an entire season after a motorcycle crash. Last years top choice, defensive lineman Phil Taylor, is currently recovering from surgery for a torn pectoral muscle and wont be available until midseason. The Browns open their preseason at Detroit on Friday. Andre Johnson Authentic Jersey . Porter, who was the Nationals third base coach this season, replaces Brad Mills, who was fired last month. Porter will remain with the post-season-bound Nationals for the remainder of their season. Brian Cushing Elite Jersey . Bob de Klerk leaves his post as first assistant coach to become the MLS franchises newly minted technical manager. The Dutchman will do everything from advance and international scouting, to being the bridge between the academy and the first team, and working one-on-one with young players. http://www.houstontexansgears.com/j-j--watt-jersey/ . The Ottawa Senators defenceman told TSN Hockey Insider Pierre LeBrun on ESPN.com on Friday that in his opinion, staying home is a possibility. "Yeah, why not? If you think about it, maybe you can put something in the new CBA," said Gonchar, who is playing for Magnitogorsk in the KHL. Owen Daniels Elite Jersey . Major League Soccers disciplinary committee issued the ruling for Berniers "reckless challenge that endangered the safety of Toronto FC forward Ryan Johnson." Bernier was shown the yellow card after his aggressive challenge left Johnson limping in the 94th minute of TFCs 3-0 victory last week at Montreal. Danieal Manning Jersey . Seven-time defending champion Rafael Nadal followed Djokovic on court to thrash Mikhail Kukushkin 6-1, 6-1, conceding only six points on his serve and breaking the Kazakh qualifier five times. After clinching victory on his first match point, the top-ranked Djokovic crouched over with his hands on his knees as Dolgopolov applauded him at the net.The Blue Jays certainly have more pressing issues right now. But I was just wondering, when the Jays are going to elevate Carlos Delgado to their Level of Excellence. Delgado spent 12 seasons in Toronto and owns just about every offensive mark in their record book. He was as close to a "Captain" as this team has ever had. In the 2000 season, Delgado might have had the greatest individual offensive season in Blue Jays history, when he batted .344 with 41 homers, 57 doubles and 137 runs batted in. Consider this, in 1941 Ted Williams hit .406 with 37 homers and 120 runs batted in. The "Splendid Splinter" won the Triple Crown that year. Delgados career numbers in no way compare with Williams, but for that one season, Carlos won out in the two power categories. He is also the only Blue Jays player to hit four homeruns in a game. Though Carlos, never actually played in a World Series, he was given a ring after the 1993 World Series because he was a rising prospect in the organization. Of the nine greats on the Level of Excellence, Goerge Bell is only one who doesnt have a ring. I could go on and on, but next year will be the 25th anniversary of the Blue Jays initial signing of Carlos Delgado. He deserves the acclaim and the recognition this honour would bring. Blue Jays, get it done! ---- No matter that Alex Rodriguezs teammates are struggling at the plate every bit as much as he is, if the Yankees lose their Division Series to Baltimore later on Friday, A-Rod will be depicted as the goat of the series from here to eternity He isnt the only Yankees great to falter in the big spotlight. In the 1962 World Series, one Yankees star hit .174 and another batted .120, yet the Yankees beat the San Francisco Giants 1-0 in game 7 and took the series 4 games to 3. TThose two players were Roger Maris and Mickey Mantle respectively and neither was benched or pinch hit for. Wade Smith Jersey. . While Im still sticking with Detroit as my pick to win the World Series, this is the 50th anniversary of that Giants-Yankees World Series. It might be something special if they hooked up again this year. ---- Pretty much everyone knows, Babe Ruths first homerun as a professional, came in Toronto against the old Maple Leafs when he was playing for Providence in the International League. The ball was hit out of the old ballpark on the Island and legend has it landed in Lake Ontario. What you probably dont know is that Ted Williams first home runs as a pro were both inside-the park jobs for the Minneapolis Millers. Williams won that leagues Triple Crown that season and oddly enough he only hit one more inside the park homer over his entire Major League career. ---- Though I believe Miguel Cabrera of the Detroit Tigers should win the American League MVP award over Mike Trout of the Los Angeles Angels, winning a Triple Crown hasnt always made it so. Ted Williams won the Triple Crown in 1942 and 1947. He lost out in the voting both years to Yankees, Joe Gordon in 1942 and Joe DiMaggio in 1947. Williams did win the MVP in both 1946 and 1949, but those were years that he didnt win the Crown. ---- This doesnt quite compare to Raul Ibanez pinch hitting for A-Rod, but in 1938, Ben Chapman hit .340 for the Red Sox. In the off-season he was traded. Why? Well to make room for rookie Ted Williams who took over in right field in 1939 at Fenway. Yes I said right field. "The Kid" was moved to left the following season, so he wouldnt facing into the sun as much. The Bosox didnt want to risk damaging his great "hitting eye." ' ' '
