Incompetent owner Jerry Moyes is fighting this, of course. He wants the team to keep using Swift Air, his own charter airline, which is such a ridiculous conflict of interest that it's a joke we're even discussing this. And though it cost the team $2.6 million to use Swift Air last year, Moyes is forcing the league to take him to court to hash this out; thereby costing even more.

Tell me again why this man was allowed to run a hockey team?

The Coyotes would still fly chartered flights, but none of the luxury jets like they used last season, with 68 first class seats and "extensive catering services." Honestly, at this point, they're such a minor league operation that they might as well take buses to road games.

US Airways has caught football fever with the release of the newly painted US Airways Arizona Cardinals plane. The Airbus A319 plane incorporates the Cardinals logo and colors with the US Airways name and stylized flag appearing on the fuselage.

We're glad that US Airways has "caught football fever," but, um, we'll wait for the bus painted like the Detroit Lions. — RC
