Detroit does indeed have an NFL franchise.: Since December 23, 2007, the Detroit Lions have gone 0-19. However, today, September 27, 2009, is a new day for this NFL franchise as they have finally put a tick in the Win column. Sure, it was against the struggling Washington Redskins, but by this point in time, the name of the losing team is immaterial. Once again, the Detroit Lions win a regular season football game.

Usain Bold faster than Usain Bolt: Earlier today in Germany, Usain Bolt ran the 100 meters in 9.58 seconds, shattering his previous record by .13 seconds. Tyson Gay sets a new American record of 9.71 seconds while coming in second place. Bolt's fellow countryman, Asafa Powell, came in third place at 9.84 seconds.
I think I could go 9.4 but I think the world stops at 9.4

That Ali/Cleveland shot is amazing. It even looks posed.

Thank goodness it's treatable. I hope they got to it early enough to wipe it out. Go Matt Go! It's crazy how this type of thing can come on. I remember last year seeing a good friend of mine at a Boris show at the Cat's Cradle in Chapel Hill and he was complaining of a nasty headache that just wouldn't go away. What seemed like a blink of any eye later, I was wheeling him to a radiation treatment.
And I know what Matt speaks of about the MRI. I had to go through one earlier this year in hope of finding the source of my sudden onset of a seemingly endless series of migraines. In hindsight, it was pretty funny when they asked me what kind of music I liked best. They had a XM radio on board and they switched it to my type of music. I think I got to hear 45 seconds of a song before the industrial jams of the MRI machine drowned everything else out.

I was thinking that might happen, except for the bad blood that Harbaugh stirred up a while back with his comments on the athletic academics at Michigan. I don't think they'd want him at this point. He done dissed the memory of the almighty Bo.
I no idea that this happened. Thanks for letting me know. I guess I retract my first comment then.

So, how long before we start hearing about a Michigan push for Jim Harbaugh?

I heard a player say something along these lines not too long ago. He said that if we are serious about reducing the amount of head injuries, they should get rid of the facemasks. Makes sense in a counterintuitive way.

Ben Spies is an amazing rider. It's going to be fun watching him challenge Rossi next year.

If Texas wins out, they're in the National Championship game, easily. It's gonna be them v. Florida/Alabama.

Wow. That was a hell of a stiff-arm by Randy Moss on that touchdown run.

What? Every minute Congress deals with stupidity a poor person dies?
No, I think Ceiling Cat kills somebody masturbating. Or something.

Can't wait to see how a 375 lb. lineman pours his gut into the new unis.

Favre just kind of waltzed right into Lambeau and stuck it to the Packers, didn't he? As someone raised a Lions fan, all I can do is laugh at the wonderful theater of it all. Good job, Brent.

Wow. That was pretty funny. I guess he just got so hyped to lay down a good hit on someone he forgot which team he played for.

The NFL desperately needs Jerry Glanville back in the broadcasters' booth. I loved that guy.
