The Cavs would be taking a risk with Bynum that could have huge rewards. He would instantly raise their profile and probably get them back to the playoffs after winning just 66 games combined the past three seasons. In giving him only a two-year deal, they would not be tying up much money which would allow them to stay flexible next summer when several top-tier free agents -- possibly -- will be on the market.</html> | The Cavs would be taking a risk with Bynum that could have huge rewards.

House of Commons passes law to legalize mixed martial arts
<html>House of Commons passes law to legalize mixed martial arts{eot}The Canadian Press6/5/2013 4:27:54 PMText SizeOTTAWA -- The House of Commons has passed a bill legalizing contact sports such as mixed martial arts. The legislation, which originated in the Senate, takes certain fighting sports,Nike Ravens 21 Webb White Women Limited 2013 Super Bowl XLVII Jersey, including taekwondo and karate as well as the popular sport of MMA, out of legal limbo. The sports were not technically covered under prize-fighting law, making it difficult to regulate them and protect the safety of fighters. The bill passed the Commons easily with 267 members of parliament in favour and only nine opposed. The Criminal Code section on prize-fighting was last changed in 1934, long before the rise of the new fighting sports. Section 83.1 of the Criminal Code only exempted boxing. The section said anyone who engages as a principal in a prize fight, encourages, promotes or is present at a prize fight as an aid,Nwhich ilse leavecoupon s coupon surate crystalsraft so that, second, surgeon, umpire, backer or reporter is guilty of an offence -- unless the boxing contest is held with the permission or under the authority of an athletic board or commission or similar body established by or under the authority of the legislature of a province for the control of sport within the province. The section also allowed a boxing contest between amateur sportsmen, where the contestants wear boxing gloves of not less than one hundred and forty grams each in mass. Some jurisdictions ignored the antiquated wording of the law. The UFC, the largest promoter of MMA fighting, lobbied for the legislative change. As it has done in the U.S., the UFC has pushed for government to sanction the sport.
This is a major development for the sport of mixed martial arts as we now have a consistent legislative framework for Canada and its provinces, Tom Wright, the UFC's director of Canadian operations, said in a statement.
Liberal Massimo Pacetti, who supported the bill, said it's an important move.
We are laying the groundwork for the general acceptance of these sports across the country, he said during the debate.
Supporters say MMA bouts are no more dangerous than boxing matches. Others say they may be safer, because MMA fighters can quit when they want,[1], while boxers tend to fight until there's a knockout or the referee steps in. Since 2008, the UFC has hosted 12 Canadian events split between Montreal (six), Toronto (three), Vancouver (two) and Calgary (one). Winnipeg is set to host UFC 161 on June 15. The Edmonton-based Maximum Fighting Championship is the largest Canadian promoter. In most jurisdictions, MMA is regulated by the same athletic bodies that oversee boxing. Currently, MMA is sanctioned at a provincial level in British Columbia, Manitoba, Nova Scotia, Ontario and Quebec, while it has been sanctioned on a municipal level within Alberta,Ta hardthey wouldthey would coupon shey thereurate crystalscoupon s big t allegethey would big t Duthey wouldutahl a hardatlantainside that coupon suent element elem. e .r, New Brunswick and the Northwest Territories.</html>
Report- Cavs offer free agent C Bynum two
<html>Report: Cavs offer free agent C Bynum two-year contract{eot}The Canadian Press7/9/2013 11:13:55 AMText SizeCLEVELAND -- has a new team waiting for him. The enigmatic free-agent centre, who didn't play a single second for Philadelphia last season because of knee injuries, is mulling a two-year offer from the Cleveland Cavaliers, a person familiar with the negotiations told The Associated Press on Tuesday. Cleveland made the offer, which includes a team option in the second year, during his visit to the Cavs' facility Monday. Bynum did not work out but the team examined him thoroughly. The person with knowledge of the negotiations spoke on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the talks. Yahoo! Sports first reported Cleveland's offer and said it was worth $24 million. The 25-year-old Bynum had arthroscopic surgery on both knees in March, but the Cavs apparently are confident he will return to the form that made him one of the NBA's best centres. They're also counting on him thriving under Cleveland coach Mike Brown, who has returned to the Cavs after being fired three years ago. Brown and Bynum spent one season together with the Los Angeles Lakers and the 7-footer had his best year, averaging 18.7 points and 11.8 rebounds. Over the past four seasons,[2], Bynum has averaged 14.7 points and 9.5 rebounds. Cleveland has competition in its pursuit of Bynum,[3], who was scheduled to meet with the Atlanta Hawks on Tuesday and is expected to visit Dallas on Wednesday. The Mavericks need a big man after losing out in the sweepstakes. It's not clear when Bynum will make his decision. The NBA's free-agency moratorium period ends Wednesday. His agent, , did not immediately respond to a phone message. The Cavs have already landed forward and guard in free agency and are looking to move up quickly. They would immediately vault into contention in the Eastern Conference with a healthy Bynum paired with All-Star guard and a roster that includes forward ,If Dems can't beat Gov. Brian Sandoval in '14, at least have fun and pick Tick, guard and forward Anthony Bennett, the No. 1 overall pick in last month's draft. The Sixers acquired Bynum last summer from the Lakers as part of a four-team trade. Bynum,Cubs 25 Derrek Lee Blue Jersey, who made $16.9 million despite not playing last season, never got healthy enough to get on the floor with the Sixers.
