Apparently, it's only illegal if you lose...

-So, this woman has filed suit against Jordan's furniture, contending that the company's "Monster Sweep" constitutes an illegal lottery. She bough $4,660 worth of furniture and she wants her money, even though the Red Sox couldn't close the deal against the Rays. Now, not being a lawyer and since the report doesn't point out whether or not she participated in the 2007 version of the promotion, I'm going to hold off on a full judgement of this lady. However, just from the opening glance this woman strikes me as the kind of person who makes a lot of bets with people and then doesn't pay them off. You know, the type of person who bets you $20 on the SuperBowl, but then never pays you, just hoping you would forget it.

-Iona College in New York has announced that it will be ending it's football program at the end of the season. They claim it's because they're having problems lining up opponents who won't destroy them. Mostly, I think it's because no one knows what the hell a Gael is.

-This should 100% be the new commercial for the NBA's League Pass. Really, I'm more more intrigued to watch this than any Oklahoma City game. I especially love the pause when they come back from reading the promo and the announcer has to stop while all the smart-ass comments in his head pass through at light speed. Having done some announcing in my day, that's tough to do sometimes.
