Two days ago, as Team India defeated Pakistan in the first one-day international cricket match at the Nehru Stadium here, the first thing that Chief Minister Tarun Gogoi did was to declare a cash award of Rs 1 lakh to each of the Indian team members.

What is surprising is that the Assam Government is yet to disburse cash awards that Gogoi had announced for each of the 148 players from Assam who had won medals in the 33rd National Games held here in February.

Assam had won 38 gold, 53 silver and 27 bronze medals in the National Games and became the overall third best team, Gogoi had announced Rs 3 lakh, Rs 2 lakh and Rs 1 lakh each for the gold, silver and bronze medallists, respectively, in individual events. For team events, the awards announced were Rs 5 lakh, Rs 3 lakh and Rs 2 lakh.

NFL notes

EAGLES: Quarterback Donovan McNabb will miss Philadelphia's game today against New England because of a sprained ankle and injured thumb.

McNabb hurt the thumb on his throwing hand early against Miami last Sunday and left after injuring his ankle in the second quarter. He has not practiced all week.

A.J. Feeley, who led the Eagles to a pair of touchdowns in a 17-7 win over the Dolphins, gets the start for underdog Philadelphia.

McNabb has started every game since returning ahead of schedule after a torn knee ligament ended his season early last year. Injuries ended his regular season three times in the past six years. The Eagles are 13-8 without him, including 1-1 in the playoffs last season.

Feeley will make his first start since he led Miami over Cleveland on Dec.

NFL: What's next for our conquering heroes?

WHEN IT rains it pours, or so it is said. Then again, sometimes the rain results in flowers. For the Raiders and 49ers it was a bouquet of roses Sunday. Finally.

Last time both Bay Area teams won on the same day was Oct. 30, 2005, when the 49ers knocked off Tampa Bay, while the Raiders were winning at Tennessee. Home-and-away scheduling has something to do with this, but the last time both teams won on the road was Dec. 8, 2002 — back in the playoff days.

It's been a long wait but, for one day, worth it. Everything the 49ers and Raiders thought they were going to be turned out to be what they were.

The Raiders thought they were a running team but over 10 weeks of the season what they were running was a rather grotesque six-game losing streak.

Then they ran. Justin Fargas and even LaMont Jordan were given holes.

Everyone gets ice time: Special needs hockey program in Pembroke invites kids of all abilities to play

While their needs are special, their dreams are common: play a little hockey and have a lot of fun. Starting outJohn Quill lives and breathes the sport. The 37-year-old Norwell resident played at North Quincy High, still plays in a men's league, and coaches his 11-year-old daughter Megan's South Shore Seahawks team.Like other hockey parents, John and his wife, Julie, wanted to pass their love of the game to their three children.But there was a hurdle: John's son Sean, 10, is autistic.

Just what is wrong with English football?

England has the wealthiest soccer league in the world, with matches screened across the globe and business tycoons from the United States, Russia and Asia lining up to own the clubs.

The Football Association now has plenty of time to search for a coach who can lift the nation credited with establishing the modern game to the same level.
