The TEN

(“The Ten” is not a top ten, but ten items worth being included in The TEN)

1. Diamond Ranch’s Chris Miller’s 109 yard kick off return in the 2012 Hall of Fame Game.

2. BCS reaches consensus on four team playoff.

3. Muir’s Tyquwan Glass.

4. Bishop Amat’s Rio Ruiz drafted by the Houston Astros in the fourth round of the MLB draft.

5. Jerry Sandusky looking at close to 500 years in prison after being convicted on 45 of 48 counts of abuse counts.

6. Terry Bradshaw is the first and only player to receive a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

7. On this day in 1988 Cal Ripken Jr. played in his 1000th consecutive game.

8. Josesito Lopez breaks Victor Oriz’s jaw in a huge welterweight bout upset.

9. “During my 18 years I came to bat almost 10,000 times. I struck out about 1,700 times and walked maybe 1,800 times. You figure a ballplayer will average about 500 at bats a season. That means I played seven years without ever hitting the ball.” Mickey Mantle

10. Monrovia’s Deshawn Ramirez gets stuck in traffic, arrives 30 minutes before game time, scores twice and earns West MVP in the Hall of Fame game.
