Upgrading question

Currently I shoot with a Nikon D3100 and I am looking to upgrade my camera before football season next August. I take photographs for USF's school newspaper and I have been doing more sports games than anything. The options I've been coming up with are:
1) Hope the price of the D700 drops to around $2200 once the D800 comes out and pick up a D700 and get a grip with it
2) Wait for the release of the D400 and get it with a grip
3) Don't up grade my body and get Nikon's 24-70 2.8 and a speed light
I've been leaning towards the D700 route but the only thing keeping me back it the price...

I have available to me Nikon's 70-200 2.8 VR1
The reason why I want the 24-70, is because of some of the indoor sports that I shoot as well

which indoor sports??
I would think basketball and volleyball the 70-200 would be best suited... any way that is mostly what I see at the college level here.
I use the 70-200 and my 50 1.8 for basketball, but I thought the 24-70 would be better for volleyball when using a DX camera
