[per Outkick the Coverage]

Olympic skier Lindsey Vonn, fresh off a divorce, is denying rumors that she is dating Denver Broncos star quarterback Tim Tebow.  She watched the Broncos win over the Chicago Bears on Sunday from the Tebow family box at the game.

She tweeted: “Hearing a lot of crazy rumors but rest assured I am NOT dating Tim Tebow (or anyone else). I’m just friends with his family. xo, LV”

Well most things usually start as friends.  If Tebow did wreck her marriage then it would be one of the more compelling bits of drama in sports given Tebow’s strong beliefs.

St. Louis Cardinals free agent first baseman Albert Pujols has signed with the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim for a record 10 years at $250-$260 million dollars according to reports.

The Cardinals had planned to talk with Pujols’ agent one more time Thursday before heading home. But sources told Olney that the Cardinals’ latest offer was for nine years and a little less than $200 million. That would have made him the fourth-highest paid first baseman. With the Angels deal, he is tops.

On Tuesday, many pundits believed that Pujols was close to signing with the Miami Marlins who had already signed all-star Jose Reyes and others.

Pujols was NL Rookie of the Year in 2001 and a 9x All-Star in his 11-year career with the St. Louis Cardinals.  He won two World Series Championships while in St. Louis.

He will be 41-years old at the end of the contract which includes a full no-trade clause.

Sports by Brooks is reporting that Ohio State University has come to an agreement with former Florida Gators coach Urban Meyer to become the next head coach for the Buckeyes.

The deal between Meyer and Ohio State was consummated in principle earlier this week in Columbus but not signed. It includes a multi-year contract that will make Meyer once again one of college football’s highest paid coaches.

In additon to Meyer’s generous compensation package, sources said a major factor in the coach’s decision to agree to take the position was the school promising him the budget to assemble what is expected to become the highest-paid assistant coaching staff in college football history.

Meyer would replace Jim Tressell who resigned earlier this year after getting caught up in an ugly scandal with the NCAA regarding Buckeye players trading memorabilia for tattoos.

Meyer is 104-23 in his coaching career and 7-1 in bowl games.  He won two national championships while the head coach at Florida.  Before that he was the head man at Utah and Bowling Green.

Meyer is rumored to be interested in adding Kirk Herbstreit, Chris Spielman, Jon Tenuta, and Greg Studwara to his staff.

This is the best hire OSU could make. Urban wanted time off, but the opportunity to coach in the state he was born in and played his college football in was likely too much to pass up.

[UPDATE: Still rumors floating both ways about Urban accepting the job.]

Here is a photo of the stylish retro uniforms that the Memphis Tigers busted out today for the season opener against the Belmont Bruins.

The 1972/73 Tigers team, led by the late Larry Finch, went all the way to the NCAA Championship game where they were beat by Bill Walton and the UCLA Bruins. Walton had the best game in NCAA tournament history going 21-22 from the field.

The uniforms have a black patch with the #21 inside of it in memory of Finch who died earlier this year on April 2nd after a lengthy illness.

Penn State football coach Joe Paterno was fired last night (full story) for not doing enough in the wake of the massive child sex abuse allegations against his friend and former assistant coach Jerry Sandusky.

Many idiotic Penn State students and fans rioted last night in the streets of College Station upon hearing the news of Paterno’s dismissal.

It makes one believe that there is no way they have read the Grand Jury report against Sandusky stating the heinous things he did to minor boys.  If they had then surely no way they’d be rioting. (WARNING: Not for minors or those easily offended. The details are graphic and very sad.)

READ THE GRAND JURY REPORT HERE

It appears that actor Ashton Kutcher is just as idiotic after his erratic tweet (full story) last night blasting Penn State for firing Paterno.

If you believe Paterno was done wrong then you haven’t read the Grand Jury report.

READ IT!!!

Paterno didn’t molest boys, but his inaction and failure of leadership allowed Sandusky to continue to do it in private and in Paterno’s locker room showers.

The Penn State University Board of Trustees met tonight and came to the much needed conclusion to fire head football coach Joe Paterno and school president Graham Spanier.

The news came down minutes ago in a press conference held by the Penn State BOT.  John P. Surma, Vice Chairman fo the Board of Trustees, made the announcement at a 10:00pm ET presser.

The Board told Paterno via phone.  The vote was unanimous.

Joe Paterno announced earlier today that he would retire at the end of the season.  That simply wasn’t good enough or fast enough.  Paterno never seemed to grasp the extreme nature of what had happened or his role in it.

Paterno lost his job for not doing enough when he learned that former defensive coordinator Jerry Sandusky was caught having sex with a 10-year old boy in the Penn State locker room.  A 28-year old assistant coach told Paterno of what he had witnessed after walking in on Sandusky violating the boy.  Paterno claims he told his Athletic Director and that was it.  He never followed up on it or reported it to the police.

The Illicit Jerry Sandusky Grand Jury Report (Rated X – Full Text)

Many believe that was an epic failure by Paterno considering he is the most popular and important person at Penn State.  The AD has answered to Paterno for decades.

Sandusky has been indicted on over 40 counts of sexual abuse against children.  He was seen, as late as last week, working out in the Penn State weight room.  His football camp has been held at a Penn State satellite campus since his stepped down as defensive coordinator back in 1999.

Paterno’s first words, according to the AP, upon being asked about the Board’s decision, “Right now, I’m not the football coach, and that’s something I have to get used to.”

Penn State didn’t ban Sandusky from the campus until November 6, 2011.

Current defensive coordinator Tom Bradley has been named as the interim head coach for the Nittany Lions.

UPDATE: Thousands of students have gathered in what looks like could evolve into a riot scene.  One report states that they have already claimed one light post by bringing it down.

UPDATE 2: Mark Madden tweeted earlier that this thing is about to get even worse: RT @MarkMaddenX Don’t believe it can get worse? Give it 72 hrs. People really digging into 2nd Mile. Even more shocking revelation ahead.

The golden shower is over for newlyweds Kim Kardashian and New Jersey Nets power forward Kris Humphries according to TMZ.

Kim K has filed for a divorce after just 72 days of wedded bliss to Hump-man.

Casting calls for Kim’s next boyfriend are taking place in profissional sports locker rooms all across the United States.

Kardashian was previously in a 2-year relationship with Miami Dolphins running back Reggie Bush before rushing into marriage with Humphries.

The NBA lockout has lasted nearly 130 days at this point. Advantage: David Stern.

Kris was Kim’s 2nd husband. She was married just as briefly several years ago to Damon Thomas (see photo HERE).

Legendary St. Louis Cardinals manager Tony La Russa shocked the baseball world moments ago by announcing his retirement from the game.

Perhaps his best managerial job was this year with the Cardinals coming from 10.5 games back in August to win the Wild Card, NL Pennant, and World Series upsetting the Phillies, Brewers, and Rangers along the way.

La Russa, who is 67-years old, just said it was time:

“There isn’t one [factor] that dominates [my decision],” La Russa said. “They all just come together telling you your time is over.

La Russa won six pennants, three world series, and the third (just 35 behind John McGraw for second) most games by any manger in his Hall-of-Fame career.

He is the Cardinals most winningest manager.

Best of luck to Tony and thanks for all of the memories!

[La Russa will be on The Late Show with David Letterman tonight.]
