WHAT THEY MIGHT BE DOING TODAY ...

Andy Roddick might want to review those two victories he has over Roger Federer ... and forget about the 18 losses.

NASCAR drivers might be wondering if Jeremy Mayfield is telling the truth when he says he didn't use meth.

Beekeepers might be enjoying some rare publicity for their craft.

QUOTE OF THE DAY

"Behind every rider must be a person, and on that point, maybe he needs to learn something more. There is something wrong with him about respect."

-- Carlos Sastre, last year's Tour de France champion, on Lance Armstrong, who reportedly called the 2008 Tour "a bit of a joke."
