One of the worst things about getting sick and missing the first two weeks of preseason practice wasn't the time that Navy sophomore Marcus Curry spent in the hospital or in his own bed, away from his teammates. No, the worst thing was probably the time he spent on the field after practice, away from his teammates. Every day, as the rest of the Midshipmen headed to the locker room, Curry stayed behind with Joe DuPaix, Navy's slotbacks coach, and ran sprints. During Navy's second scrimmage, Curry jogged around the stadium field as the rest of his teammates played.

After South Carolina's Mark Sanford pulled his disappearing act, the Associated Press rang up the nation's 49 other governors to see if any of them were AWOL. "Where in the world are your governors?" the headline read. Martin O'Malley's story sounded fishier than most. "Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley was fishing with his 10-year-old son," AP reported. A likely story! Where'd they cast their lines, Argentina? O'Malley spokesman Rick Abbruzzese said the governor really was fishing, on Upstate New York's Cranberry Lake, with one of his sons, William, who, it turns out, is 11. "It would have been easier to point to two press conferences in the governor's reception room and private meetings in the State House," Abbruzzese said.

George W. Owings III, a former Democratic delegate and party leader from Calvert County, is "actively considering a challenge" to Gov. Martin O'Malley in next year's election, the former majority whip told The Baltimore Sun. The 64-year-old Vietnam war hero from Dunkirk, who served in Republican Gov. Robert L. Ehrlich Jr.'s Cabinet, said he was "45 to 60 days" away from deciding on whether to enter the 2010 Democratic primary. He acknowledged the "very long" odds of anyone unseating the governor.

One-and-dones leave void Memphis is certainly going to miss Derrick Rose. Same is true for Kansas State and Michael Beasley, Southern California and O.J. Mayo, UCLA and Kevin Love, Indiana and Eric Gordon, Arizona and Jerryd Bayless, Ohio State and Kosta Koufos, Syracuse and Donte Greene. But the coaches, teammates and fans of these preternatural talents who went straight to the NBA after one season are not alone. The sport will miss them, too, because this year's freshman class - and next year's, according to most reports - is simply not as good.
