To the surprise of nobody, Alabamas defense is great again. There are few things more certain in college football than Nick Sabans Great Crimson Wall.Its like an army, like a machine, an SEC offensive assistant told ESPN.com. They come in, they dont say much, they kick everyones ass and then leave.Texas A&M hopes to unplug the machine Saturday at Bryant-Denny Stadium. Opposing coaches dissected the Alabama defense and explained how best to attack the seemingly unbreakable. http://www.ravensrookiestore.com/Ravens-Tony-Jefferson-Jersey/ . -- Chicago Bears cornerback Tim Jennings was selected Monday to his second straight Pro Bowl, while guard Kyle Long made it after a solid rookie season. http://www.ravensrookiestore.com/Ravens-Matt-Judon-Jersey/ . -- The proud fathers huddled near the Dallas Stars dressing room, smiling, laughing and telling stories while wearing replica green sweaters of their sons team. http://www.ravensrookiestore.com/Ravens-Bronson-Kaufusi-Jersey/ . Dallas hasnt ruled out the star quarterback for Sunday nights game against Philadelphia, but all signs point to Romos back injury pushing Kyle Orton into the starting role after two years of limited play as the backup. Surely Ortons name isnt the first that comes to mind for fans wanting a change after years of damaging interceptions, fumbles or, most infamously, the field goal flub when Romo dropped the snap on a kick that could have won his first playoff game in 2006. http://www.ravensrookiestore.com/Ravens-Jimmy-Smith-Jersey/ . R.J. Umberger scored twice to lead the Blue Jackets to a franchise-record for consecutive wins with a 5-3 victory Tuesday night over the Los Angeles Kings. http://www.ravensrookiestore.com/Ravens-James-Hurst-Jersey/ . Wilson hit Schenn from behind during Tuesday nights game in Philadelphia, earning a five-minute major for charging and a game misconduct. He has a phone hearing with the department of player safety, which limits any potential suspension to five or fewer games. ATLANTA -- Chicago Bulls guard Dwyane Wade says he hasnt spoken to Heat president Pat Riley since last season ended.Wade played in Miami for 13 seasons before signing a two-year deal with the Bulls over the summer, which includes a player option. He makes his first return to the AmericanAirlines Arena as a visitor on Thursday as the Bulls face the Heat.I think you guys know, I havent talked to him, Wade said Wednesday. Its as simple as that. I think Ive been very open and honest about my respect and love with Pat. Ive been honest that I havent spoken to him since the season ended.The general thought throughout the league last summer was that Wade would re-sign with the Heat and ultimately end his career in Miami. After contract talks broke down, Wade decided to sign with the Bulls. The 34-year-old said he has communicated with everyone else in the organization besides Riley.I know who Pat is, Wade said. Its no secret to me. I was there 13 years, Ive seen a lot of players come and go. I know how he is. If youre not with him, youre against him. Thats just the way he is. You got to understand that, man. And Im cool with it. Im fine, 100 percent. I was there 13 years so Ive seen a lot of video tributes, seen a lot of players come in and go out. And Ive seen the way hes responded to them. And I know if youre not with him, youre against him.Wade said he wasnt sure whether he would speak to Riley before the highly anticipated game Thursday.I dont know, Wade said. I plan on playing tonight [against the Atlanta Hawks], focus on this game. And then Ill worry about tomorrow at 8 oclock.Wade isnt sure how hell feel when the Heat play an expected video tribute, as they have for other players who have returned after signing elsewhere.I dont know, Wade said. Ive only experienced it from clapping for other guys who came back. Ive always been appreciative of the guys who came backk and the tributes they got.dddddddddddd I have no idea.LeBron James was very emotional when he saw his tribute, and Mario Chalmers -- the starting point guard on Miamis 2012 and 2013 title teams -- said he was moved by what the Heat did to commemorate his return after a trade to Memphis last year.Its going to be very emotional, that I can say, Chalmers said. With me coming back, I had mixed feelings. The fans welcomed me back, everybody at the arena welcomed me back, but I still had a sour taste in my mouth from how the trade went down ... and Im pretty sure D-Wades going to feel the same way.Wade has remained extremely close with?Udonis Haslem, with whom he shared captaincy in Miami for many years. Hes been in regular contact with Heat coach Erik Spoelstra and continues checking in on some of his former teammates as well.Itll probably be emotional for me, Spoelstra said Wednesday. And then well get to competition, and thats ultimately what its all about.Bulls forward Taj Gibson said Tuesday that Wade has been telling teammates they better be ready to play on Thursday, the second night of a back-to-back and the Bulls third game in four nights.I would love if [the game] wasnt on a back-to-back, Wade said with a smile. I would love if I was able to have a day so I can enjoy my house. Im going to go sleep in my bed for about three hours -- I would love it a lot more. But Im going to take advantage of the moments Im there ... and go out and compete in an arena that I played for 13 years, an environment that Im used to. So its going to be fun from that aspect, but I would love it if the schedule gods would have looked at it a little better and not gave us this on a back-to-back.Information from The Associated Press was used in this report.
