MONTREAL -- Former Montreal Expo Warren Cromartie is just waiting for the right investors -- or "power hitters" as he puts it -- to step up to the plate in the city and hit one out of the park. "There are two things in baseball that never change: history and numbers," said Cromartie, who is spearheading a drive for Montreal to get a Major League Baseball team. "Montreal, we have the history for baseball in this town. We have the numbers now. The numbers dont lie. Its an amazing day." The Expos left after the 2004 season to become the Washington Nationals amid dwindling attendance at the concrete and much-maligned Olympic Stadium in the citys east end. The reason for Cromarties unbridled enthusiasm at a news conference Thursday was an Ernst & Young feasibility study that suggests baseball could thrive in Montreal if the city had a new stadium. The study was commissioned by Cromarties group -- the Montreal Baseball Project -- and the Montreal Board of Trade. Ernst & Young cited a strong demand for season tickets, the teams salary cap but especially revenue-sharing and increased TV rights as the reasons it reached its conclusion. The report said the project would cost just over $1 billion -- $500 million for the facility and $525 million for the franchise. Ernst & Young based the $525-million figure on the average price of the 10 MLB teams that, according to Forbes, have the least economic value. The firms scenario includes a government contribution of about $335 million. Cromartie and the board of trade are looking for someone who can deliver money -- and lots of it. "My next step is to find a champion," he said. "A champion with passion, a champion with integrity, a champion with assets, because we cant get done without it. "Were looking for a big player, a cleanup hitter, somebody who wants to be part of history, be a hero. "We got a ball game going here. We got a game going. We got a runner on first base ... I need a power hitter, power hitters to make it happen." Jon Bostic Steelers Jersey . -- Alex Anthopoulos spoke volumes with what he didnt say on right-hander Ervin Santana.

Joe Haden Steelers Jersey . - Aaron Rodgers makes tough throws that can leave fans of the Green Bay Packers speechless.COLUMBIA, Mo. -- Gary Pinkel reminded Missouri players coming off a bitter loss that an SEC title game was still in their grasp. The 10th-ranked Tigers heard their coach loud and clear. "Why in the world would you ever be thinking about last weeks game when theres so much out there," Pinkel said after getting a dominant and resilient effort in a 31-3 victory over Tennessee Saturday night. "A little common sense here. Are you kidding me?" He also told them to savour the start to their season and added hed "take that the rest of my career. Forever." Players were loose. They grabbed another big lead, and then they built on it. "Were just kids out there tossing the ball around," offensive guard Max Copeland said. "Its recess time out there. "We wanted to show we were still going to have fun doing what we do." Maty Mauk threw three touchdown passes and ran 114 yards on 13 carries for the Tigers (8-1, 4-1 SEC), who responded smartly a week after squandering a 17-point cushion in the fourth quarter of a double-overtime loss to South Carolina. Andrew Baggett banged another chip-shot field goal attempt off the left goalpost, eerily similar to his game-ending misfire a week earlier, but instead of heartbreak they still took a 24-3 cushion into halftime. "I saw about seven of his teammates go right to him, put their arms around him," Pinkel said. "Its a lonely position. Its like golf. You cant hide it." Missouri forced three turnovers and committed none in Mauks best game in three starts in place of injured James Franklin. Mauk threw touchdown passes to Dorial Green-Beckham, LDamian Washington and Marcus Lucas in the first half and Missouri totalled 339 yards rushing with a 6.3-yard average. "When you give up 300 rushing yards, I think that pretty much tells the story," Tennessee coach Butch Jones said. Franklin (shoulder sprain) warmed up before the game and Pinkel said he could return next week at Kentucky. Tennessee (4-5, 1-4) iss 0-4 on the road, all but one of them blowouts, and fell hopeless behind just like a week earlier when No.dddddddddddd 1 Alabama was ahead 35-0 at the break. The Volunteers have lost 19 in a row on the road and mustered only a 51-yard field goal by Matt Palardy in the second quarter. "Honestly, I dont think we really have trouble," said Vols wide receiver Pig Brown, who had 11 catches for 89 yards. "Its just really executing, thats probably the main thing." Freshman quarterback Joshua Dobbs was intercepted twice and lost a fumble in his first career start in place of injured Justin Worley, out indefinitely after thumb surgery. Tennessee was 2 for 13 on third down. "I think hes going to do nothing but get better and better," Jones said. "I was extremely encouraged by what I saw from him." E.J. Gaines and Braylon Webb had interceptions for Missouri and Matt White had a fumble recovery on a strip by Darvin Ruise. Missouri has forced a turnover in 39 consecutive games, the longest streak in the nation. Mauk entered with 22 yards rushing on 21 carries. His 27-yard scramble to the 11 with one second left in the half led to Baggetts 29-yard miss. He had carries of 19 and 8 yards plus a 12-yard completion to set up the lone score of the second half, a 26-yard run by Russell Hansbrough. "The great thing about Maty, he always has a smile on his face," Washington said. "You have to enjoy it right now and I think thats what hes doing. "Hes leading our team and I think hes doing a great job." Green-Beckham did most of the work on a 9-yard catch, traversing the field off a dump-off pass. Washington was alone in the back of the end zone on a 26-yard catch and timing clicked on Lucas 40-yard scoring reception. Dobbs had 101 yards passing and 43 rushing in the first half, dulled by two turnovers. Washington was alone in the end zone on a 26-yard catch set up by Gaines team-leading interception to make it 17-0 midway through the second quarter.
