John Steinbeck was a football fan

Jamal Lewis, disgruntled Cleveland Browns halfback, channelled his inner Grapes of Wrath this week when criticizing Cleveland Head Coach Eric Mangini:

"Hey, this is his show, it's not mine," Lewis said. "It's his show, it's not my show. Not anybody else around here's show. We're just the crop. You've got to take care of your crop. If you don't take care of your crop, when it comes time to harvest, you're not going to make no money because the crop ain't no good."

Aw, shucks Pa. Looks like someone's been put out to pasture.

The Difference

The Difference between Democrats and Republicans, is that when Democrats call their least favorite president the "anti-christ," they are doing so sarcastically.

Time to investigate?

Okay, I'm done. I need Roger Goodell to step in and investigate.

Bill Belicheat has brain washed Al Davis and taken full control of his mind.

First the Raiders trade Randy Moss to the Pats for a 4th round pick, and then they give away what's likely to be a top-5 first round pick to get Richard Seymour, a player now planning to sit out the season and never play a snap for Oakland. Looks like the only raiding going on is that of Al Davis' bling. (Ho ho ho).

What the crap, mate? This shouldn't be allowed. How could the other organizations possibly have allowed this trade to materialize without the 4-team veto voting block?

Turnaround-a-brewing?

Buccos fans: rejoice!

Your Pittsburgh Pirates have now defeated the Milwaukee Brewers for the first time in 18 games played.

If statisticians are to be believed, your Pittsburgh Pirates are due for a winning season this very upcoming year! MAZEL TOV!

Tort Reform for Everybody!

Unless, by chance, your plaintiff happens to be the RIAA...

The recording industry secured a resounding victory when a Minnesota jury awarded the four major labels $1.92 million in damages after unanimously finding that Jammie Thomas-Rasset had willfully infringed on their copyrights by downloading and sharing 24 songs on the Kazaa peer-to-peer network.

The mammoth size of the verdict, representing $80,000 per track, may help dissuade more P2P users from illegally downloading music, and for that the labels are happy. "We appreciate the jury's service and that they take this as seriously as we do," RIAA spokeswoman Cara Duckworth said in a statement.

In other words, punitive damages are perfectly reasonable when we're talking about individuals sitting at home on their laptops. But multi-billion dollar corporations? That's just excessive, man.

Three cheers for choosing law school!
