Enter the Warzone, snappier than a termite's jaws.
The biggest news for Fresno State coming out of Western Athletic Conference football media day wasn't the Bulldogs being picked to finish third behind Boise State and Nevada.
It was coach Pat Hill saying Ryan Colburn, Ebahn Feathers and Derek Carr all will get playing time early in the season.
Quite a change in philosophy from a coach who used to frown on quarterback rotations.
Our long national nightmare is over.
No, not the recession -- Brett Favre's waffling. Now, please, stay retired, and don't forget to tell ESPN's Ed Werder.
Did Terrell Owens really say that Michael Vick's continued suspension after spending 23 months in jail for dogfighting is "almost like kicking a dead horse in the ground?"
C'mon, T.O. Think next time before you choose your metaphors.
Now that Vick has been cleared to participate in practice and meetings, we wonder if NFL teams still give a Shih Tzu about him.
(Insert your "short leash" jokes here.)
Good to hear Plaxico Burress is "truly remorseful" about his actions.
To recap: Burress was in possession of a handgun (illegally), brought it into a nightclub, shot himself in the thigh, lost his job and is testifying in front of a grand jury.
What does he have to be remorseful about?
The most surprising thing about Kingsburg High quarterback Tyler Bray isn't that Tennessee is recruiting him, it's that Volunteers coach Lane Kiffin apparently hasn't committed any NCAA violations while doing so.
We normally don't repeat gossip, but Reggie Bush's breakup with Kim Kardashian prompted this gem from deadspin.com:
"Reggie Bush prepares for training camp by losing roughly 140 pounds."
Here's what Fresno Grizzlies call-ups have hit for the San Francisco Giants entering play Saturday: Jesus Guzman (.133), Kevin Frandsen (.128), John Bowker (.156) and Matt Downs (.170).
Only Eli Whiteside (.218 and caught Jonathan Sanchez's no-hitter) has made much of an impact.
For no particular reason: Edwards Guzman
Reader Jim Wilson of Fresno wonders if Buster Posey married the Grizzlies mascot, "would we be seeing Parker Posey running around the ballpark for the rest of the season?"
Police have charged Kevin Provencher, a sports writer at the New Hampshire Union Leader, with running a prostitution ring.
You know what they say: reporting ain't easy.
