Last year, the Dolphins' star receiver, Brandon Marshall, and quarterback Chad Henne were rarely on the same page. The team didn't play well; Marshall didn't catch touchdowns.

Charles Mann Will Have You Know That He's Totally Straight
On the sidelines with a mic for last night's Washington/Indianapolis game, former Redskin Charles Mann complimented the heck out of safety LaRon Landry as O.J. Atogwe took it all in.

Former Little League Superstar Chris Drury Retires From Something Called "The NHL"
We kid, we kid. Drury, most recently of the New York Rangers, was the shot-blocking, goal-scoring-via-deflection heart and soul of every team for which he played. Except the 2000-01 Colorado Avalanche. That was all Greg De Vries' beard. Drury retires with 255 goals in 892 career games. [Puck Daddy]...
A Not-Entirely-Constructive Exchange With Yahoo's NCAA Scandal Hunter, Charles Robinson
A few months ago, I had an angry but illuminating exchange on Facebook with Charles Robinson, author of Tuesday's big Yahoo hoo-hah about the Miami Hurricanes.
