The most lazy and lame take in all of Professional Sports: “Yeah, but Player X never won a title.”

In the United States, Prostitution is a crime.  Should it be?  That’s another question.

Reid and KC made adjustments at halftime: go bigger on the defensive line, and line up tighter to shrink the gaps. So the Pats had to make adjustments, too: more short, quick passes.

When Bobby Fischer was Chess Champ, a reporter at one of his news conferences asked Fischer a question about turmoil in the Middle East. Fischer replied: “What does that have to do with chess?”

On the other hand, most women have a strong sense of compassion ... even if it can be easily manipulated by the unscrupulous.

I’m perplexed, too. All I can come up with is that Coaches fall in love with their own system. Just like corporations fall in love with their business model, and fail to catch the next wave of innovation.

While searching for a job as a TV Reporter, I visited a number of PBS stations in the Northeast. On a visit to the Pittsburgh affiliate, I interviewed with a guy who’d been to camp with an NFL team as a defensive back (he was cut before the exhibition season).
