First Report
The investigation into the Plaxico Burress situation continues to unfold; the ramifications of which are yet to be determined. Tuesday, the Giants placed Burress on the reserve non-football injury list and suspended him for the remainder of the year. Now it appears that he is not the only Giant potentially facing legal trouble for his alleged role in Friday night's incident. Tuesday, police impounded linebacker Antonio Pierce's car to look for any blood or gunpowder residue that might be inside and still await the opportunity to question him as to what actually occurred. OTL will have the latest on the status of the criminal investigation as well as a live report from Giants camp as both coach Tom Coughlin and the players address the latest controversy surrounding the team.

When it comes to baseball, India is indeed a foreign country. Though the game is played in one part of the nation, this country of more than 1.1 billion people is largely untapped when it comes to baseball talent. Enter Jeff Bernstein, and his India-based TV show, "The Million Dollar Arm", which aired earlier this year. The premise for the American Idol style show is simple; find pitching talent and send the winners to America to train and eventually try out for major league scouts. Mark Schwarz follows 19-year-old Rinku Singh and 20-year-old Dinesh Kumar Patel on a remarkable journey that began with both players having never seen or touched a baseball before and ended with both young men landing a big league contract.
