About Last Night...
• Boxing: Klitschko KO's Brock in the 7th. Well, that's alright. We wouldn't have wanted America to have to learn another heavyweight's name. • College Football: Kansas State 45, Texas 42. I can't say I'm sorry to see the chances for an Ohio State/Texas rematch evaporate. • NBA: Seattle 113, Atlanta...
Let's See If Another National Title Contender Bites It
Do you realize that tonight on ABC, you'll either be getting a game that features Wake Forest, or a game that features Kansas State? That's indicative of the crazy kind of college football season we've had, and also that someone at ABC, somewhere along the way, made a pretty poor decision. I'm not s...
Hugh Johnson Project, Update 4
With the afternoon of college football winding down, South Carolina and Florida are about to come down to the wire. I have no real rooting interest, and I sort of hate Steve Spurrier... but it would be sort of awesome to see at least a couple of those one-loss "but we deserve the BCS championship ...

A Very Unmanly Night Of Boxing
At Madison Square Garden tonight, Muhammad Ali will be in the house, and the IBF heavyweight title is on the line. There was a time when that would've meant something. Tonight, however, Muhammad's only there to support his daughter, and the guy who's challenging for the world heavyweight title would...
Hugh Johnson Project, Update 3
I think the best part of living in Big Ten country is that you are always assured a game with Indiana, Illinois or Northwestern. Oh, did I say best thing? I meant I want to pick my eye out with a grapefruit spoon. - Victoria Times...

Let's Revisit That Rose Bowl, USC
Yahoo! Sports, seemingly dedicated to the sole pursuit of torturing the University of Southern California, has done some digging about the instant replay booth in last year's national championship game. They've discovered that it was an incorrectly hooked-up replay monitor that prevented the prope...
Hugh Johnson Project, Update 2
Glad to see Auburn is taking advantage of the loss by Louisville by being taken behind the hedges at Georgia, not too mention the side judge just pulled his hamstring. - EPS...
Today In The Premiership...
Aston Villa 1-0 Everton. Not a great day for Everton... midfielder Tim Cahill was taken out on a stretcher, and they lost at home to Aston Villa despite dominating the play for long stretches of time. The extent of Cahill's injury isn't known just yet, but since a stretcher was required, the injur...

Football Game Delays Vote Counting; You'll Never Guess Where
No more than 3,500 votes separate U.S. Rep Deborah Pryce and her democratic challenger, Mary Jo Killroy in the Ohio congressional race. There are still 18,000 absentee and provisional ballots to be counted. You'd think they might want to count those as soon as possible ... but they're not....

About Last Night...
• College Basketball: (17) Marquette 76, Hillsdale 66. In the ESPN recap, "Hillsdale" is not clickable, and has no logo. Marquette beat them by 10. • NBA: Portland 92, NOOCH 91. Blowing a 27-point lead? That'll put some hair on your chest, Peja. • College Basketball: (1) Florida 79, Samford 54. I ju...

It Should Also Help With Crowd Impulse Control
Apparently, they've been running low on sperm in England, not just in general, but at the sperm banks. So, to make sure that any perspective sperm recipients receive the goods from the most intelligent, calm, rational donors possible, sperm banks are considering setting up shop right outside Premi...
