Just heard Ditka on Mike & Mike talking about how no other sport would do this and that these athletes deserve the best opportunity to showcase their talents. Well, I watched the entire Philly-Detroit game and it was spectacular, and I share Barry's sentiment in that this game made me excited for the superbowl for the…

Another thing to look out for is the defensive partnerships in the game. In the Collin/Besler pairing, KC probably has the best CBs in the league, and Besler's the first name on Jurgen Klinsmann's USMNT backline.

Because clearly what everyone is concerned about in this story of…

If those guys are from Utah, then those rocks couldn't be more than six thousand years old.

Good. Reading Calvin and Hobbes is a deeply personal experience. We don't need a voice actor telling us what Calvin should sound like or animators trying to bring him to life in a horrible amalgam of Watterson's style and cartoon puppetry. It is perfect the way it is.

I give him major kudos for sticking by his principal. Not many can do that and more often than not, people give up their belief/principal for money.
