In the News...

A few things from the world of sports spotted in the last few days...

"Lions intend on confusing the Vikings"
1) By winning?
2) By using a cheerleader at QB?
3) By bringing in some Pistons fans to rough them up?
Update: Replacing the above headline on www.detroitlions.com today was this beauty:
"Lions Measure Progress By Executing Game Keys"
They could measure progress more effectively by executing players and staff!

"Kobe Apologizes to Shaq"
At this point Kobe just figures he's not gonna be able to take the tag team of Malone and Shaq when they show up at his front door at 3am, so he's gotta make nice. By the way, if Kobe doesn't want Malone on his team for embarrssing his wife-- shouldn't Kobe retire?

"Washington D.C. Stadium Deal About to Fall Through"
You know why? Because some City Council idiot actually expects the owner of the team to pay for some of the stadium! Who does she think she is? Doesn't D.C. know what MLB will bring to their city? 3-4 hour nap times several days a week and it will only cost you $35 for a comfy seat. It will increase the gang population by 30% and make more money available for the drug trade. Government officials will have something to take thier mistress' to that doesn't take up vaulable tourist hotel space. And best of all, think of the taxes made on the increase in production of "the cream" and the "clear". And a D.C. councilwomen actually had the nerve to say the tax payers should only foot 75% of that Nirvana? What a nutcase.
