I am looking to purchase my first D-SLR. I am brand new to photography and want a camera that I can take action shots from my kids basketball and baseball games as well as zoom in on professional baseball games. I saw that QVC is offering these deals...

Canon Rebel XS 10.1MP Blk Digital SLR w/18-55mm75-300mm Lens
QVC Price: $659.96

Nikon D60 10.2MP Digital SLR Camera
QVC Price: $638.96

I want to have a camera that I can manually focus and use the auto focus, do both of these offer that and which is the better deal?
