The latest HBO “Real Sports” has a segment about how college football isn’t doing as much to protect its players from head injuries as compared to the NFL and high school and youth leagues like Pee Wee and Pop Warner. In that piece, it’s mentioned that the NCAA became to be after President Theodore Roosevelt encouraged reforms so protect the safety of college football players. Interesting that the NCAA was formed to protect college football players and now all it does is whore them out, and no matter what, we’ll all continue to shake our pom poms.
Here’s a nice article about ESPN reporter Ed Werder and his daughter’s recovery from cancer.

If you eat at your desk, here’s a nice idea for a keyboard.
I’m not sure what beats me down more, the “12 Days of Christmas” song or the article that comes out once a season telling us the price of each item.
The kid on “Two and a Half Men” is now a Christian and doesn’t want you to watch the show anymore. YouTube Man, I kinda feel for Jon Cryer and Chuck Lorre, no actors want to work with them.
Regarding “Homeland”, why does Brody’s wife refer to Brody by his and her last name only? I know I’ve stated the show is getting pretty unbelievable, but I’m expecting to see either Maxwell Smart or Agent 99 in the next episode.
If you are a fan of that Australian sprinter girl, you know the one, here’s an interview with her, and here’s a shorter one.
