| Kwame Brown, Bobcats agree deal |
喬丹簽下水貨狀元 |
| To the surprise of many NBA observers, Kwame Brown and Michael Jordan are together again, ESPN reports. Brown has reportedly signed with Michael Jordan's Charlotte Bobcats in a deal which will earn the 9-year veteran a minimum wage of US$1.3 million next season.

短吻鱷街頭漫步 |
| A three-foot alligator, sporting a collar around its neck, has been found wandering aimlessly in the city of Brockton, Massachusetts. Firefighter Scott Hurst spotted the out-of-place reptile Sunday as it quietly crossed a street, AP reported. Hurst said he lifted the gator by its collar and tail and used a bungee cord to tie it up in the back of his pickup truck.
