Leftovers


iconThere are two big poker players at the table, and the stakes are nothing less than the entire internet. If you aren't paying attention to this war yet, perhaps you should be.

iconRogue SUVs are on the rampage again, and this one has struck very close to home. The AP reports, "A sport utility vehicle hit a man on an interstate highway Sunday and dragged his body -- apparently lodged in the suspension -- 8 1/2 miles to the driver's home, police said." Well, at least they are admitting that this one had a driver, so perhaps the big, mean, and evil SUV wasn't acting completely on it's own volition.

iconHell hasn't frozen over, but there is a cold front moving through. Keeping with their tradition of changing the rules every year to try to right past wrongs, the BCS has decided to add a fifth BCS game to the mix. The yet to be named bowl will give us two more at-large bids to open up their so-called "national championship" to so-called "minor conferences". The proof will be in the pudding. I have no doubt that this will provide yet another lucrative bowl game to the BCS, but whether or not teams from 'lesser conferences' will really be invited remains to be seen.

iconA pair of cops in Porterdale, Georgia were caught having a contest to see who could write the most tickets. They were caught only because a judge apparently overheard the winner bragging about his conquest. While both of the rookie cops were asked to resign, I have to wonder how often this sort of behavior goes on.

iconMel Gibson's 'The Passion of the Christ' is doing quite well at the box office. I can only grin at the thought of all those Hollywood suits who must be kicking themselves for passing on the film.

Oh yes, that big, bad, violent SUV theme again.

I noticed the same thing is now happening with ATV's. Saw a headline the other day (can't remember where): "ATV kills local man." Turns out that the local man was too stupid to drive the ATV intelligently so the ATV attacked him (okay, he really rolled it and crushed himself).

If I had to pick the 5th bowl added to the BCS I'd pick the Cotton Bowl. It has a long, storied history and is played in a major football market (Dallas).
