UFC, Big East Defection, Coach Kelly, Josh Hamilton, Barry Bonds & Ichiro Suzuki News: 12/14, Vol. 289, 3rd Edition

            When I wake up in the morning love and my heart is filled with pain.  The smile I had upon my face is gone, can't see the sunshine from the rain when I think of You then the world is alight with me. Lord just one thought of You and I know it's gonna be, a lovely day!  For your Spiritual Sports Segment on Rhema Gospel Radio, I’m C.E.E.J.A.Y.
