"it's hard to move laterally, you know when you've got that tweak in your groin. it's not a quad.

the movement with the quad is fine, but you get that tweak on the inside of your thigh and the lateral movement becomes difficult. so you gotta get the movement and the strength back in it before he can go out and play. so it's going to be at least a few days before he even gets on the floor. so we'll see where it goes from there." college basketball season getting underway- cal opening its year in shanghai, china... you see yao ming in attendance for the festivities. --golden bears facing yale... cal's main source of offense was paris austin... runs the floor and goes right to the rack. game high 18-points. --but yale..way too strong... boys from the ivy league led by as many as 21.. miye oni...3-for-5 from downtown, 16 points --cal falls, 76-59 turning now to the nfl-- the league released a statement today saying it is monitoring air
