Ashley Pipkin

Posted by: jocktoo in Untagged on Oct 1, 2009

JockJive is saddened to learn of the recent passing of 10-year old Ashley Pipkin of the Sumter Angels Dixie Softball All-Stars. It was just a couple of months ago that she was playing some super softball in the Dixie Softball World Series. We were honored to broadcast those games, which now possess special meaning because of this special little girl. Our thoughts and prayers are with Ashley's family.

QB Leinart, Texans agree to 1-year deal (AP)
Matt Leinart has agreed to a one-year deal with the Houston Texans, according to agent Tom Condon. Leinart was cut by Arizona on Saturday. Condon confirmed in a phone interview with The Associated Press on Monday that Leinart had reached a deal with the Texans. The Texans would not confirm the deal.

Ravens, WR Houshmandzadeh agree to terms (AP)
The Baltimore Ravens upgraded their receiving corps again by agreeing to terms Monday with T.J. Houshmandzadeh.

Clayton, drafted 22nd overall by Baltimore in the 2005 draft, ranks third in Ravens history with 234 career catches and 3,116 yards.

Roethlisberger out as a Steelers captain (AP)
Ben Roethlisberger is no longer a Pittsburgh Steelers captain. Dennis Dixon is the new Steelers quarterback, at least for the time being. Roethlisberger, suspended by the NFL for the first four games of the season, was not chosen a Steelers captain in a vote by his teammates. He has been selected the previous two seasons.
