Afternoon Blogdome: Chris Mortensen's Arizona Job Security In Jeopardy

• But Leinart's starting job is still safe for now: "Do we have a quarterback? ... It seems like Chris Mortensen is making the decision on our quarterback for our football team. ... But nothing has changed," [Arizona Cardinals' Coach Ken]Whisenhunt said. [ Sporting Blog] • I'm sure it's pronounced "Rah-Pay": "The freshman soccer player who was ranked as the 5th best soccer recruit in the country will be joining the Blue Devils’ soccer team this fall. On the field, [Ashley] Rape has been a member of the Under-15, Under-16, Under-17 and Under-18 National Teams and was a selection for Sports Illustrated’s “Faces in the Crowd” this past February." [ The Slanch Report] • Right place, right time for young goalie: "When a scheduled goalie didn’t show up on time to the training session, Chris Neil started scrambling. He stuck his head in the first locker room he could find, and asked the first available goalie with pads on if he would mind getting out on the ice with them. It just so happened that goalie was 13-year-old Christian Rusu." [ Two-Line Pass] • Another theory about Jimmy Rollins' poor season: "Could it be that the real Jimmy Rollins has, in fact, been gone since April 8, the night he sprained his ankle going back to 2nd at Shea Stadium? I contend that Jimmy Rollins started the season with every intention of replicating his 2007 season. But when he got injured and was placed on the disabled list for the first time in his career, he got a taste of what having some time off feels like." [ HouseThatGlanvilleBuilt]
