NASCAR Eury Jr. out as crew chief at JR Motorsports CHARLOTTE, N.C. JR Motorsports parted ways Monday with crew chief Tony Eury 10 days after his father was ousted as competition director. Eury Jr. was crew chief for Danica Patrick and is a partial owner of the Nationwide Series team.

"I had hoped he would be here for a long time, but as we've discussed the direction of JR Motorsports moving forward, it was clear our differences in ideas were too vast to overcome," said Dale Earnhardt one of four owners of the race team. Earnhardt Jr. and Eury Jr. are cousins, and Eury Jr. was his crew chief for many years at the Sprint Cup level.

JR Motorsports has won nine Nationwide races, but none since Jamie McMurray's win at Atlanta in 2010. Earnhardt said Monday no decision has been made as to who will crew chief Patrick this weekend at Kentucky Speedway. Ul Affidavit says Vilma put bounty on Favre NEW YORK The NFL presented Jonathan Vilma and his attorney with a sworn statement from former Saints defensive coordinator Gregg Williams saying the linebacker placed a $10,000 bounty on Brett Favre. Vilma met with Commissioner Roger Goodell on Monday in New York about his suspension, which has been temporarily lifted. Attorney Peter Ginsberg said they were given an affidavit at the meeting.

"What Gregg Williams said in his most recent affidavit is the same falsity he has previously provided," Ginsberg said. "I don't know what Gregg Williams' motives are, but I do know that any suggestion by Williams that Jonathan put up $10,000 as an incentive for his teammates to injure another player is absolutely false." Vilma tweeted on Monday night that Williams was "bullied to sign the affidavit," saying Williams signed it on Friday. Williams is now with St. Louis, though he has been suspended indefinitely. An associate of his said Williams did not want to talk to the media.

Associated Press on Monday, Gillispie confirmed he'd been treated for kidney problems and abnormal headaches last week at the Mayo Clinic in Minnesota. The school had no comment on Gillispie, who is currently on indefinite sick leave as Texas Tech gets set to begin practicing Oct. 12. Gillispie spent four days at the Rochester, medical facility. That followed an earlier six-day stay at Lubbock's University Medical Center that began Aug.

31, the day Gillispie was to meet with Texas Tech athletic director Kirby Hocutt to discuss allegations of mistreatment of players. A group of players met with Hocutt on Aug. 29.

10 versus Minnesota and Nov. 17 COLLEGE BASKETBALL Spartans' Kaminski out 4-6 months EAST LANSING, Mich. -Michigan State freshman forward Kenny Kaminski will be out for four to six months after having surgery on his right shoulder. Kaminski was injured while playing against teammates during the summer. He had surgery on the same shoulder last fall while attending Medina High School in Ohio.

The 6-foot-8, 245-pound Kaminski will likely red-shirt this season, giving him four more years of eligibility with the Spartans. He averaged nearly 20 points, more than 10 rebounds, three assists and almost two assists as a junior in high school. He missed much of last season because of his injured shoulder. Michigan State opens the season Nov. 9 in Germany against Connecticut.
