The 29th CashCall Futurity (Grade I) at Hollywood Park is the last major stakes race of the year for two year old colts. The top three finishers from last year (Pioneerof the Nile, I Want Revenge, and Chocolate Candy) all became major players on the Triple Crown trail. This year should prove to be no different, since two of the runners (Lookin At Lucky and Noble's Promise) have already done enough to qualify for the Kentucky Derby.Trainer Bob Baffert has won this race four previous times. 
There is little doubt in my mind that Lookin At Lucky will be his fifth CashCall Futurity winner. Noble's Promise is the main competition for Lookin At Lucky He'll run another big race here. The Program then came back and ran second in a first level allowance race at Hollywood Park three weeks ago, earning a 83 Beyer speed figure for that effort. The Program has improved in all of his four career starts, and the CashCall Futurity looks to be his best effort to date.The third Baffert runner is Marcello, who earned an 86 Beyer speed figure with a late second place finish in the Generous Stakes (Grade III) on turf at Hollywood Park on November 28th. Before that, Marcello won a first level allowance race at Hollywood that was taken off the turf and run on the main track.2009 CashCall Futurity Field:1 Lookin At Lucky 4/5Last Out Beyer: 912 Brady Blue Eyes30/1Last Out Beyer: 713 The Program12/1Last Out Beyer: 834 Marcello 10/1Last Out Beyer: 865 Make Music for Me12/1Last Out Beyer: 636 Noble's Promise 2/1Last Out Beyer: 907 Seattle Ruler20/1Last Out Beyer: 808.

According to sports writers, there is only four legit possibilities for LeBron James in the summer of 2010: the New York Knicks, the New Jersey Nets, the Cleveland Cavaliers, and lately the Miami Heat.Now, you can't blame them for speculating, but seriously, two of those options are just ridiculous.If James cares about winning titles (which might be still up in the air), then there's no way he signs with the Knicks or the Nets.The Knicks' bargaining chip was the ability to sign two max contracts, but with the shrinkage in the salary cap, that won't be possible.
Plus, they don't have a first-round pick, and with the collection of young players they have, they're a good three years away from being contenders, even with LeBron.It would be like starting over for LeBron, just like he was coming onto the 2003 Cavaliers.As far as the supposed "marketing opportunities" in New York, get real. In today's age, you can live anywhere you want and your going to get chances regardless of where you live.And if LeBron wants to go to be the "King of New York," then it would become pretty clear that success on the basketball court is secondary to him, after becoming, in his words a "global icon."The Nets have an interesting collection of talent, but it's young talent, and like the Knicks, they're probably a few years away from putting it all together.The Heat have Dwyane Wade and while that looks good on paper, is it really wise to combine two alpha dogs, both of whom are used to the offense running through them, on the same floor at the same timeHowever, there is another viable team that no one has yet mentioned, but makes much more basketball sense for LeBron than the Knicks or Nets especially.The Dallas Mavericks.You're probably yelling "homer," "idiot" or some less-flattering terms, but hear me out. Point by point, the Mavericks make sense for LeBron James.Salary CapI've mentioned this in another article, and it is explained in more details here, but I'll break it down.Due to minutes requirements that Erick Dampier will not meet, his contract is an expiring one. A $16.4 million one at that.So, another team can sign-and-trade for Erick Dampier, and get an instant $16.4 million in savings, because they can simply waive him after the trade.Why is this important Because a team re-signing its own player can sign them to a higher max contract than a team signing a free agent.This mean that if LeBron wants to re-sign with the Cavs, he can get six years for $121 million, as opposed to five-year $95 million from another team.For the Cavs, who might be on the verge of losing their superstar for nothing, getting some savings from the Mavs, as well as some cash or picks, is much preferable.Supporting CastWe can all agree that unless LeBron wants to go to the Celtics, Lakers, Nuggets or Magic (most of which have an all-star or better at the small forward), Dallas has more talent than anyone else that would court him.Everyone wants to play with Jason Kidd. His recruiting abilities are one of the big reason that he was inked to a three-year deal.The fact that you've got Dirk Nowitzki, another Hall of Famer, who is currently submitting one of his best seasons ever at age 31.You've also got someone like Shawn Marion, who can defend three positions, and play three as well.
