The News
Robbie Gould is putting his foot down, darn it! The kicker is entering the final year of his contract, and he is showing his displeasure by not showing up to the current set of voluntary offseason workouts, the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Our View
Go get 'em, Robbie. Kickers never have much leverage, as they are often seen as one of the most replaceable positions in the NFL. Gould will surely kick for the Bears this year and missing this time shouldn't hurt him.

The News
Felix Doubront threw 5.2 scoreless innings on Thursday, allowing five hits, no walks and fanning eight to improve his record to 3-0 at Low-A. The southpaw has a 17/1 K/BB ratio in 15.2 innings to go along with a 0.57 ERA.

Our View
Doubront was terrible last season with an ERA above 7.00 in 19 starts at Low-A, so his performance this season is both surprising and encouraging.

The News
Dwyane Wade is aiming to play for Team USA in this summer's Olympics. He has yet to do any rehab on his left knee, which didn't allow him to take the court after March 8. Wade plans to begin working out on May 5, the South Florida Sun-Sentinel reports. The pre-Olympics mini-camp begins on June 27.

Our View
Wade would help his 2008-09 fantasy value if he's able to suit up this summer. We're still going to have concerns about his future chances to ever log more than 70-75 games in a season, though.

The News
Jonathan Cheechoo scored twice the Sharks 4-3 victory over Calgary on Thursday night.

Our View
Joe Pavelski and Patrick Marleau added goals in the win.

The News
It's another beautiful day in South Carolina as the PGA Tour gets ready to heat up the engines for the 2nd day at Harbour Town Golf Links as the Verizon Heritage moves along. Today's forecast calls for a sunny day, highs near 80, with mild breezes.

Our View
Tomorrow's forecast is calling for PM showers, and that would be beneficial for the final round on Sunday. As of today, it appears to be optimal conditions and should be an entertaining day for golf fans.

The News
Marcos Ambrose may not have won the race, but he was one of the most impressive drivers in the field. After dropping to the back because of a clutch problem, he stormed up to second.

Our View
Put a not in your calendar for August. He will be a driver to watch at the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve.
