TORONTO -- Jimmy Vassers return to competition at Toronto was short-lived after a hard landing in one of Robby Gordons trucks sent the former champion to the hospital for X-rays. Tim Hardaway Jr. Jersey . Vasser was scheduled to run both Saturday and Sunday in the Gordon-owned Speed Energy Stadium SUPER Trucks series, but only made it through two laps in Saturday mornings practice because of a rough landing. Vasser said he did exactly the opposite of the instructions Gordon gave him before practice for the series in which trucks slide through the corners and jump ramps that make the trucks sail 50 feet through the air. "Robby told me to lift off a bit before the ramp, and then power up the ramp," Vasser said. "Apparently I didnt lift enough, and I powered more than I should have. I looked out the window and I was over the fence line and it was pretty cool -- until I landed and the whole truck hit the ground, and my back went crack, crack, crack." IndyCar orthopedic specialist Dr. Terry Trammell sent the 1996 CART champion to a hospital for X-rays. Vasser said the X-rays looked fine at the hospital, but the pictures were sent back to the track for Trammell to give a second opinion. "I can barely sit. It hurts," Vasser said. "Were still waiting for Trammell to take a look at the X-rays, so I wasnt cleared to drive. But Im in no shape to drive." Vasser, who co-owns Indianapolis 500 winner Tony Kanaans car, was using a soft padded stool to sit on while he called Kanaans race from the pit stand. He was replaced in the truck by former IndyCar driver Davey Hamilton. Vasser said he would like to try Gordons series again. "It was my first time, Ill do it again, as soon as I can," Vasser said. "It was totally my error. I think its a great series, the fans love it. They are very excited to watch the jumps and see the trucks slide around. I think Robbys got something with this series."

NEW YORK -- A former New York Islanders co-owner who received a 10-year prison term for a fraud conviction had his sentence cut in half Wednesday by a judge who cited his good deeds and cooperation with prosecutors.U.S. District Judge Loretta A. Preska in Manhattan said Paul Greenwood, 69, deserved a reduction to five years. She noted that he regularly did charitable acts long before he became embroiled in an over half-billion-dollar financial fraud that spanned a dozen years.The 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Manhattan ordered the resentencing this year, saying another judge wrongly based the 10-year sentence in part on a finding that Greenwood had left some individuals financially devastated.Assistant U.S. Attorney Jessica Masella said 98 to 99 percent of investors money had been recovered, and the government sent the judge a letter citing the role Greenwoods substantial cooperation had played in the prosecution of another defendant, Stephen Walsh.Walsh eventually pleaded guilty and was sentenced to 20 years in prison.Greenwood and Walsh owned a controlling interest in the Islanders hockey team from 1992 to 1996.Greenwood pleaded guilty in 2010 to securities fraud, admittting cheating charities, schools and others out of hundreds of millions of dollars.

Among them were 74 bears, plus birds, cats, insects, dinosaurs, kangaroos, seals and squirrels.Prosecutors said Walsh and Greenwood carried out the fraud from 1996 through February 2009, cheating institutional investors in particular.During those years, the men operated a securities business while Greenwood lived in North Salem, Connecticut. The businesses included WG Trading Co. LP, based in Greenwich, Connecticut, and Westridge Capital Management Inc., in Santa Barbara, California.Five years ago, Greenwood moved to Southern Pines, North Carolina, where his lawyer said he regularly tutored veterans and performed other charity work.Speaking by phone from prison Wednesday, Greenwood again apologized.I cannot express deeply enough how sorry I am, he said.
