- You know what separates Anne Hathaway from other young actresses we see in bikinis? She keeps it classy. Fake tan + stereotypical beach = Not Classy. Natural skin tone + a boat = Classy. I rest my case. (Popoholic)

- Dallas Cowboys fans are vandalizing the Redskins' Wikipedia page by putting the Cowboys's logo on the page and writing profound things such as "The Washington Deadskins suck. Go Cowboys." I think an appropriate retaliation from the Redskins' faithful would be to embed a video loop of Romo's playoff fumble onto the 'Boys' page. Just a thought. (Deuce of Davenport)

- ESPN, in their constant quest to become MTV, are upping their reporter babe quotient by bringing in former tennis pro Sophie Simone Cortina. I would be even happier about this if it meant there would be less of Linda "Zombie" Cohn on my TV. (Awful Announcing)

- I knew that Barack Obama was a basketball player in college, but I didn't know he was actually his school's leading scorer. Impressive, especially considering that the only thing Hillary led Wellesley in was paper shredding. (Sports Review Magazine)

- Am I a terrible human being for only caring about Chris Chamber's DUI case as it relates to his fantasy football value? Where can I find a point per arrest league? (First and 10 Inches)

- Do you like college football rankings? If so, try these on for size; the Coaches Hot Seat Rankings. Is it just me, or is Houston Nutt at #1 just a little too easy? (Coaches Hot Seat)
