Peavy Hires Jeff Berry As Agent - RealGM Wiretap
Jake Peavy has hired Jeff Berry as his agent as he prepares for free agency this winter.
Berry has helped negotiate some of the biggest contracts in White Sox history Alvaro Morata Real Madrid Jersey , which should bode well for the organization if they want to re-sign the veteran.
"Jake loves his teammates and the organization," Berry said. "Having said that, he's excited to experience the free agent process for the first time in his career.
"He's open to everything."
Peavy rebounded from a detached latissimus dorsi muscle near his right shoulder in July of 2010 to lead the Sox with 219 innings, 32 starts, 194 strikeouts and four complete games in 2012.
Selecting 20 greatest moments in sports history is a bit difficult. Nevertheless, here is an attempt at it.
The Foot Of A Human And The Hand Of God
The quarter final match between Argentina and England in the 1986 Soccer World Cup in Mexico will be forever remembered for the famous "hand of god" goal by Diego Maradona. The match had become chaotic because of the political skirmishes between England and Argentina over Falklands Islands. Argentina won the match 2-1. Maradona scored both the goals for Argentina. The first goal was through a header. But replays showed that Maradona stealthily punched the ball to beat the much taller English goal keeper Peter Shilton. Maradona, ever as adept in churning out quotable phrases as in producing defense-splitting passes, termed it as "the hand of god".
But soccer connoisseurs will always remember the game for the second goal scored by Maradona. He got the ball near the center circle and dribbled past six players, including the goal keeper, to virtually escort the smooth traffic of the ball to the English goal post.
