A group of Oregon State athletes have joined forces with Habitat for Humanity to build a house for a family in need in Skopje, Macedonia. The mission is titled Beavers Without Borders, but we're going to move right along. While in Macedonia, the group played some hoops, and sophomore guard Roberto Nelson ended up looking like that after shattering the backboard on a dunk.
Bizarre Injury Of The Day
We've had quite the run of bizarre injuries this week. Fausto Carmona landed on the DL after tumbling down the first base line. Golfer Thomas Levet broke his shin jumping in a lake. And now we have Marlins Class AAA player Josh Kroeger blowing out his knee while celebrating a walk-off win.
Celebration Of The Day
Swedish soccer player Josefine Öqvist was so happy with her team's World Cup win over North Korea on Saturday that she went to the stands and traded shirts with a fan.

Sergio M da Silveira Filho, of Recife, Brazil, for the tip.)
