Colorado Eagles vs Odessa - VIDE orado Eagles vs Odessa - VIDEO

Saturday in the third period of the Central Hockey League preseason game between the Odessa Jackalopes and Colorado Eagles in Loveland,Colo.

Colorado's Brad MacMillan reportedly nailed Odessa's Dave Van Drunen in the face immediately after a faceoff. The hit broke Van Drunen's jaw and nose.

Both benches were said to have cleared in a matter of minutes and the fight resulted in the officials calling the game, ruling it a forfeit by the Jackalopes, who were winning 3-1 at the time.

Odessa players weren't penalized because head coach Paul Gillis removed his players from the ice.

Van Drunen, who was taken to a hospital after the game, returned to the team on Monday with a surgically repaired jaw, nose and face.

Jackalopes owner Rick Gasser pressed for assault charges to be filed against MacMillan and asked for him to be arrested three times during the game, according to the Odessa American. Although Gasser's requests were rejected, he said he will still "ask the league for a lifetime ban for MacMillan."

Is Inspectah Deck Dead? Uh, No. Rumors Flow at BET Hip-Hop Awards

The 2010 BET Hip-Hop Awards took place on Tuesday, October 12. One of the things that came out of the award show is a rumor that Wu-Tang Clan member Inspectah Deck is dead.

So is Inspectah Deck Dead?

Uh, no. By all accounts, Inspectah Deck is alive and well. While Wikipedia is hardly the final word on such matters, there is no reference on the Inspectah Deck Wikipedia page about his death. There are also no reports from major media sources about the death of Inspectah Deck.

So how did the Inspectah Deck death rumor get started?

Here's what seems to have happened. During Raekwon's performance at the 2010 BET Hip-Hop Awards, the fellow Wu-Tang member said, "“Yo stop the music Premier…yo rest in peace my brother from the Wu, Inspectah Deck."

It appears that Raekwon was referring to the fact that Inspecta[Wu-Tang_Clan-200x300[3].jpg]h Deck's mother recently passed away. Sadly, the passing of Inspectah Deck's mother may have spawned an unpleasant rumor.
