'A miracle from God', Jeremy Lin

Jeremy Lin is calling his rags-to-riches NBA story "a miracle from God", not only a coincident for breaking everything with a sudden.

"Anytime something like this happens, a lot of stuff has to be put into place, and a lot of it is out of my control," the Knicks phenom point guard said on Tuesday. It beyond my control, "If you look back at my story, doesn't matter where you look, but God's fingerprints are all over the place where there have been things that had to happen.

'Linsanity' to go further in Asia

Basketball becomes more popular and more so and have great interest in associated with NBA," Scott Levy, senior VP and MD of NBA Asia.

There are many famous players in century. Aside from this, the 23-year-old Harvard graduate's success has made him a role model for Asian players now.

Jeremy Lin has become the world's fastest growing athlete brand particularly in the Asian market and now the "Linsanity" storm has swept into China as well- with the latest launch of the limited edition Jeremy Lin T-shirts.

"Jeremy has brought an additional fan base to the game. I think our partners and prospective partners all see that.

The Linderella story shines because of how fast he transformed into a star on the court, and a moneymaking machine.

Linflation has escalated prices for the Knicks' games by more than 17 percent, and the eBay tag on Lin's worn uniform is a staggering 40,000 US dollars.

"I think Lin's lately performance is excellent, the whole world is watching him. Of course because of his Chinese descent - Chinese fans are paying high attention to him too, no doubt it helps NBA's Asia market development," Lu Hao, President of Starz Int'l Sports, said.

Chinese fans couldn't agree more.

"I haven't watch NBA after Yao's retirement. But I started to watch it again when Jeremy Lin came up. And I'm going to buy a jersey of his," a fan said.

Observers have speculated that the potential marketing appeal of Lin in Asia is critical, especially given the NBA's recent financial woes. (ANI)

Lionel Messi Pops Up in Strange Places, Kid Gets Haircut With Soccer Star's Face

Anthony Mason, eat your heart out. The former N.Y. Knicks star thought he had the hair design game locked up in the late 1980s. But all things come to an end.

Mason had his barber etch the outline of the New York City skyline in his hair decades ago, and set the standard for all to come.

But one kid recently brought the practice back to life, requesting that the likeness of Lionel Messi appear on his head. He had a barber outline Messi's face and number in his hair, so all his friends now will know who is the greatest soccer player on earth.

These things take a long time, so we have to credit the kid's patience and the barber's steady hand for the work.

Linsanity kept to a minimum in Rising Stars Challenge

His press conference lasted longer than his time on the floor, which was by design. Just like a point guard, Jeremy Lin just wanted to make his teammates better.

So the highlights and playing time was shared by Ricky Rubio and Paul George and especially Kyrie Irving, players who haven't generated as much attention as Lin in their combined lives.

Anyone who checked on the Rising Stars Challenge to get a glimpse of the player who's shaking up the NBA had to look fast. Lin was done after throwing a lob to Blake Griffin in the first half and dropping a reverse layup in the second, toweling off after an exhausting eight minutes.

"The experience tonight was a lot of fun," he said. "I didn't play too much but I was glad to be a part of it. Just thankful to spend time with my teammate, Landry Fields, and guys like Blake Griffin."

Lin explained he asked for limited minutes because "I didn't want to play a back-to-back-to-back" -- meaning two games with the Knicks and then the Rising Stars -- but it went deeper than that.

Careful about the cult following he has generated in a short time, Lin simply didn't want to show up the other players, most of them young and eager to create a buzz for themselves. Besides, two weeks ago Lin wasn't even on the radar for this game, designed to showcase the league's up-and-comers.

"I was going to some warm, tropical beach and vacation with my family," Lin said.

Steven Gerrard eager to erase dire memories of Carling Cup 'nightmare'

Captain wants to lift cup for Liverpool at Wembley to help forget his own-goal in 2005 Cardiff final that was 'one of my worst days'

Steven Gerrard switches to auto-pilot when asked to revisit the 2005 final. "As I've said many times, it was the best night of …" Awkwardly, he has to be cut off. It is that year's Carling Cup final on the agenda. "Oh that," he says, and there is an interminable silence as he trawls through the buried file of the memory bank. "Nightmare."

It was not just logic-defying comebacks and Champions League glory for the Liverpool captain in 2005. Before the header past Dida at the Ataturk Stadium there was a head rub from José Mourinho at the Millennium, where the then Chelsea manager gave Gerrard a consoling pat following Liverpool's 3-2 defeat in their last Carling Cup final appearance.

Wembley is a reward on a personal level too, with Gerrard having missed much of 2011 through a series of serious and dispiriting injuries. "Last year was the toughest of my career so far and I worked so hard to get back for days like this so all that hard work is paying off."

Sunday also brings him face-to-face for the first time in his professional career with his cousin Anthony Gerrard, the Cardiff defender. The pair are close. Up to a point. "He's playing in his first major final," says the Liverpool captain with a hint of pride, "but I'm hoping to send him home like I felt in 2005."

Milan suffer Ibra blow ahead of Juve clash

AC Milan suffered a blow ahead of Saturday's crunch top-of-table clash against Juventus as Zlatan Ibrahimovic has been ruled out through suspension.
The big Swede was sent off against Napoli on February 5 for slapping Salvatore Aronica and handed a three-game ban.

Milan appealed in the hope of having one match knocked off the ban which would have freed Ibrahimovic to play against Juve.
And the reigning champions reacted with fury when their pleas fell on deaf ears.
"The Federal Justice Court's decision is unjust because they have applied a punishment due for violent acts to an act that wasn't violent," said a Milan statement.
"This is a serious judicial mistake."

Given Ibrahimovic had been sent off for slapping an opponent in the face it may seem strange to some that Milan would appeal his ban on the grounds they deny it was violent conduct.
However, last year they were successful with a similar appeal after Ibrahimovic had thumped Bari's Marco Rossi in the ribs.
He had one game taken off his ban but was then dismissed on his return to action for abusing a linesman.

Now Milan will have to do without their top scorer and star player for what could prove their biggest game of the season.
Milan lead Juve by one point having played a game more.
However, in their previous two games without Ibrahimovic they showed no ill effects, beating Udinese 2-1 and Cesena 3-1.
In fact, a look at last year's statistics showed Milan actually earned more points per game without the target man than they did with him.
This season, on the other hand, they have actually earned more points per game with him in the team, although only just.

Perhaps more worrying than those statistics is the fact that Milan's other strikers are struggling to find the net.

Mourinho not returning to Chelsea or Inter?

Real Madrid coach Jose Mourinho has admitted his love for previous clubs Chelsea and Inter, but intimated his affection for the duo should not be overestimated.

It had emerged that fans of the Blues and the Nerazzurri were heard chanting their one-time trainer's name during their respective matches over the weekend, seemingly longing for a return of their successful former coach.

But speaking after the Blancos' routine 4-0 victory over Racing Santander on Saturday, although the 48-year-old responded positively to the news, he hinted that a second spell at either club was not presently in his thoughts.

"I have much love for Chelsea and Inter," said Mourinho. "[However], I prefer to support these teams and hear the fans sing my name."

Mourinho then took the time out to clarify a report in one Madrid-based newspaper, which took a swipe at the former Porto man for his reluctance in selecting Cantera players, namely defender Daniel Carvajal.

However, after it was then revealed that Carvajal was actually suspended from participating on Saturday, he proceeded to indirectly attack the publication, labeling its report as a form of "disastrous" journalism.

"When we do our job, coaches are still criticized. When you're wrong you must also be criticized," he continued. "So you cannot ask for a player, who is suspended, to play. The present quality of journalism is disastrous."

Real Madrid has moved provisionally 13 points clear of archrival Barcelona at the Liga summit.

Beckham's eyes wandering... again!

It must be hard to remain composed when the world is watching your every move

Especially when there are scantily-clad cheerleaders parading in front of you. David Beckham was spotted looking a little flused as a bevy of beauties walked past him and his boys at the LA Lakers Game against the Phoenix Suns.

Beckham is struggle to keep his eyes from wandering

While his wife Victoria was making sure her new collection had a successful launch in Lodon, the footballer was enjoying a boy night out at the basketball. Becks, 36, was accompanied by Brooklyn, 12, Romeo, nine, and Cruz, six, at the Staples centre.

And both David and middle son Romeo were both caught taking the sights from their courtside seats. Becks and Romeo couldn't help but stare at one of the Lakers cheerleaders as she sashayed past them. He wore a brown T-shirt with jeans and a pair of shoes with a wooly hat covering his hair. The foursome looked like they were having a great time, fully engrossed in the game throughout.
At one point David spoke with Spanish Lakers star Pau Gasol, who towered over him during their courtside conversation. It's not the first time the LA Galaxy star has been caught with a wandering eye at a basketball match.
