Road to Accountability Should Go Through Courts
I believe USC and the Pac 10 Conference should join forces and make the bold move of suing pariah tailback Reggie Bush for the millions in bowl revenue they will lose. Maybe that would get the attention of narcissistic college athletes.
What I Knew and When I Knew It
I ruminated for days on end, knowing that dozens of journalist friends would have killed to know what I knew about Tiger Woods, friends who could have advanced their careers by breaking the story. But I held back for two reasons.
A Gator Says Bye to Timmy
You must read A Gator Says Bye to Timmy by one of our brothers in blogging at Fourth and Dumb. He says what many Gators certainly are thinking about Tim Tebow as he heads toward his true calling.
How Can Anyone Say No to This Health Care Bill?
Health care reform in its current state in Congress is as dead as my once white-hot passion for a Barack Obama presidency. But there’s still a chance to enact change, and to that end I’d like to propose a three-pillar bill that I defy anyone to find fault with.
Tebow at Heart of Opinions on Religion and Sports
The fact that you win or lose does not mean Jesus Christ, or any other mythical diety, is or is not on your side. You are not being rewarded, punished or challenged to do better. You simply won. Or you lost. Leave those biblical passages in the locker room.

I’m looking forward to the start of college football season so actual games can distract us from all this Tim Tebow worship. It’s all getting a bit cultish … sort of like that other cult, Christianity. Need proof? Watch this video tribute. Tebow, Jesus. Jesus, Tebow. They’re slowly merging into one, don’t you think? But [...]
Good luck Michael Vick
I’m rooting for Michael Vick. America is all about second chances, about giving people an opportunity to make amends for misdeeds or missteps in life. If those protesters outside the Eagles training camp would consider that for a moment, they might drop their placards and root for Michael too.
Finally … Football Season is Nearly Upon Us!
It’s WAY too early to start making crazy declarations and prognostications regarding the upcoming season (unless your name is Lev Davidovich Wuerffel), but I just had to log on to say that I got a bit tingly today when the first USA TODAY college football coaches’ poll was released with the Florida Gators perched firmly [...]
Cantor is Not Good for the Republican Party
Eric Cantor is a nasally, whiny defeatist with absolutely no ideas to present. Is he really the best the Republican Party can offer as minority whip in the House? Says it all about the GOP.
