March To Madness presents... Let the bodies hit the floor

Technically safe for work but not smart for work. You have been warned.

Not in a million years

It will never happen. BUT...

Obama/Gore 08?

Hello President Obama! That ticket would require Ronald Reagan to rise from the dead and join McCain to beat.

You must learn

Take it in, citizen. That's uplifting rap talking to you.



Happy Friday.

Blonde ambition

Lehman board gets tired of gawking at their CFO while ignoring her mistakes.

Lehman Brothers said today it has demoted its chief financial officer, Erin Callan... Ms. Callan, perhaps the most recognizable finance chief on Wall Street, had only assumed the role of CFO in December.

Over the last several quarters, she made misstatements regarding Lehman’s finances that came back to haunt her. For example, on Lehman’s first quarter conference call with investors, Ms. Callan said the company had about $38.7 billion of level 3 assets. When the company filed its quarterly results with regulators, that figure was actually reported as $40.2 billion (emphasis ours).

"She made misstatements and appears to have been given her marching orders," Brad Hintz, former Lehman CFO...

Ford and Elite have expressed interest in Ms. Callan where financial accuracy is not as crucial.

The Enola Gay Sampson

Indiana has virtually no players left now. Seriously. None. Coach Crean is taking applications at the local Bloomington Wal-Mart.

Failed dreams and hot clubs

So UCLA guard Josh Shipp realized that the NBA blows and decided to return to school.

"I am glad I went through this process, " Shipp said in a statement Tuesday. "But at the end of the day, I wanted to come back and make another run for the championship. We've been close three times and a goal of mine is to win the NCAA championship."

Shipp and coach Howland seem to think that they have a powerful core with Collison, Alfred and the aforementioned Shipp. But we don't really think so. Kevin Love is needed to make that run into a reality. Hopefully Love will realize that pro ball is the path to the dark side. If that happens then the Bruins WILL be in the Final Four next year.

Next up, Iowa State guard Lucca Staiger has to go to jail for being up in da club!

Clive police chief Robert Cox said that Staiger tried to gain admittance to Crush, 2249 N.W. 86th Street, shortly after midnight on May 26. Staiger gained admittance with an identification that showed him to be 25 years old. He turns 20 on Saturday.

...when Staiger’s real age was determined later on, a warrant was issued (emphasis ours).

Staiger turned himself in to the Clive police station on June 6, pleaded guilty and paid a $250 fine.

What on earth would make this guy risk arrest, prosecution and fines?!

Oh, ok... Say no more.
