The Arizona Cardinals have won their first NFC Championship since 1947. Ironically enough, that was Kurt Warners rookie year.

The Supreme Court won't hear an appeal from a group of Native Americans who think the name of the NFL's Washington Redskins football team is offensive.  The Supreme Court also refused to hear an appeal from a group of Redskins fans who think their team's play is offensive.

 The NFL fined Titans owner Bud Adams $250,000 on Monday for shooting both fingers repeatedly at Buffalo fans while celebrating Tennessee’s 41-17 win over the Bills.  That will teach him not to overdose on Viagra!  

Notre Dame head coach Charlie Weis appears to be on the chopping block. We had no idea they made chopping blocks that big.

Cleveland Browns coach Eric Mangini has refuted claims that he overworks his team. Based on Cleveland's 1-7 record, we believe him.

Tennessee has dismissed two freshmen football players charged in an attempted armed robbery. Miami sent them honorary degrees.

Indian cattle are getting individual identity cards to prevent cattle rustling. Authorities in West Bengal say cows and bulls are often stolen then smuggled into Bangladesh. ***MARLAR: Most of the cows fainted though when shown the ID’s leather carrying case.

In Nashville, Tennessee, team owner Bud Adams, was fined $250,000 by the NFL, for apparently making obscene gestures at Buffalo Bills fans during his Titans 41-17 win.

Adams, who says he was signaling his coaches on the field to run “play #1,” agreed to pay the fine, because it worked and his team won. 

The Supreme Court has refused to hear a case by Native Americans who consider the football team's name to be racist. Why don't the Redskins change their name to something more accurate and less offensive like the DC Colored People or the Washington Negroes?

I am glad to see Newsweek using sex to promote the magazine(Sarah Palin cover).  The awful covers of the past were the most unattractive containing the ugliest people.  Now, I hope your highly trained publishing staff takes it to a new level.  Let’s have fold outs of Hillary Clinton, Nancy Pelosi, Molly Ivin ( oops sorry, past away),  and of course Michelle!.  These could be done tastefully…like that Burt Reynolds fold out years ago.  In order to be politically correct, how about Senators Bird, Reed, and maybe even commentators such as Keith Olbermann.  He is always looking for ways to promote himself-look at Sunday Night Football (talk about odd ball-it's like having Bozo in a discussion with scientists on Global Warming). I would add Limbaugh and some others, but they are not good looking enough for your high quality publication.  I suggest sticking to Liberals, The Beautiful People! Why, maybe your editors could win the Nobel Peace prize for Literature using sex.  After all, sex is true peace!   Gene Stray

LeBron James believes he could play in the NFL. But only if he stayed in Cleveland. Jeremy Shockey doesn't believe LeBron James deserves to play in the NFL. Then again, many people don't think Jeremy Shockey does either.
