Will Wie make history? Michelle Wie competes for a spot in the men's U.S. Open on Monday in a 36-hole sectional qualifier at Canoe Brook Country Club in New Jersey. She needs to finish in the top 18 out of 153 entrants to earn a trip to Winged Foot. Needless to say, if she succeeds, it will be a first for a woman golfer to earn a spot in the men's U.S. Open, not to mention a 16-year-old girl still in high school.

I wonder if the Broad chews Redman. If not someone should spit on her shoes for gender equity.

Sampson to become new Indiana coach Sampson is a good coach and apparently not a stupid one.

Greenspan should be fired tomorrow morning. I am an IU grad who just became a BOILERMAKER. That says it all.

Does Michigan deserve a better bowl? Personally I think the only way to stop my favorite college team from bitching is to go back to the old Pre-BCS Rose Bowl. They don't deserve it this year, but it sure would be nice to see ANY Big Ten team play on New Years Day! The Rose Bowl is about Big Ten vs Pac-10, only that and only on New Years Day! Or is it sour grapes from Carr?

They could have been in the Motor City Bowl. That way the team would have been home.

McNabb fires back at NAACP prez's criticism that he's "mediocre" Personally, i'm not an eagles fan, but i'd say mcnabb is much more than mediocre. From reading the prez's opinion piece on mcnabb, it seems as though he tries to connect mcnabb's decreased scrambling during games and an old soundbyte of mcnabb saying that "everybody expects black quarterbacks to scramble." I think it probably had more to do with the qb playing with injuries, as opposed to him selling out.
Of course, the prez also loses me with quotes like these "Just think how the whole media circus could have been avoided had you had the courage to offer only a tiny fraction of your bonus this year to Owens and running back, Brian Westbrook."

Mc Nabb's performance speaks fot itself. I don't think he needs Jesse Jackson or the NAACP.

41 percent of bowl teams miss academic standards I don't know about this, Is anyone arguing that the colleges, and the athletic departments really have anything to do with eachother? The School can only be expected to do so much. It would be great if all the players got straight As, but if they're not going to succeed academically do we really want to take away the only other thing that they have going for them? Let's hear your opinions.

If a High School student does not pass his ACT's or the average score of the national average then they should not become student athletes. Stay at the Car Wash and watch the NFL on the big screen.

A Black Cultural Fiction? Toronto Raptor Eric Williams is pitching a new line of merchandise from his company, Eric Williams Apparel. The first product line is a series of urbanwear dedicated to "Black League Basketball" that existed from 1920-1940. The problem? Most historians agree the league never existed.

I still think the cars should be convertibles so you could see the drivers. A lot like Indy Cars.

It's usually pretty hard getting admitted to an Academy with a felony conviction.

Cheerleading is Not a Sport Cheerleading is not a non-sport because it’s typically for neurotic blondes with disorders of both the eating and attention deficit variety (although it is); it’s a nonsport because there’s no on-the-fly competition.

It all comes down to one basic question in determining if Cheerleading is a sport. "CAN THEY MOUNT".
