    No Recession for Tedford Bethany Stotts, November 10, 2009 California students and furloughed faculty will be feeling the pinch this academic year. Not so for University of California head coach, Jeff Tedford. Hes going to get $2.8 million for the upcoming football season. Yes, the University of California system, despite its budget crises, will give Jeff Tedford $2.8 million this year. The California Memorial Stadium at UC Berkeley also has a planned $430 million makeover. How high has Tedfords salary climbed as of late? A 2004 press release from UC Berkeley regarding his 5-year contract states that Coach Jeff Tedford,...

    No one knows for sure what the outcome of the game would have been if Kris Brown's field goal attempt would have been good as time expired in Indianapolis on Sunday. But we do know that the game would have been extended to overtime; and the way the Texans offense was clicking, chances are, they probably would have found the end zone.

    Longhorn fans may be jumping the gun, but with players like Colt McCoy whos a Heisman contender, Jordan Shipley a semifinalist for the Biletnikoff Award, and Earl Thomas a semifinalist for the Jim Thorpe Award, fans anticipate the best. Not to mention Texas has one of the leading defensive lines in the conference. So how does Coach Mack Brown feel about his key players? "I do feel like, the way Colt has been playing the last two weeks, that he's right back in the middle of the Heisman race," said Coach Brown. What about the Texas defense? "It's unusual to...

    Last night, the New York Yankees made history by defeating the Philadelphia Phillies in Game 6 of the World Series to capture their record 27th World Championship. It is the Yankees first championship in nine years. The significance of the Yankees victory cannot be overstated. With their 27th championship, the Yankees have reaffirmed their place as the most dominant franchise in professional sports. More importantly, the Yankees have destroyed the curse of Hillary Clinton. On October 26, 2000, the New York Yankees were on top of the world. They had just defeated a cute little team from the outer boroughs,...

They may not think it’s fair, but that just makes them selfish and greedy. We’re not taking all of their championships away. They...
  • The declining popularity of the World Series

    11/05/2009 5:20:50 AM PST · by mattstat · 79 replies · 895+ views
    Media firm Magna research today published its estimates of the audiences for the World Series from 1991. They broke the data down by audience per game in each series (of which, of course, there are a possible 7). There was no Series in 1994 due to a strike. These numbers are estimates, and I have no idea of their potential error; that is, their appropriate plus/minus. Also, the ratings do not show other ways besides traditional TV that people use to follow the Series. I listen to the radio, for example, and sometimes surf to Major League Baseballs website to...

    If anyone needed a huge postfight bonus at UFC 104, it was Pat Barry. The heavyweight out of New Orleans, scored Knockout of the Night and Fight of the Night for his victory over Antoni Hardonk. That was good enough for $120,000. Good thing, Barry needed the infusion of cash in the worst way. He confirmed to MMAScrapsRadio that he was completely down on his luck before the fight, agreeing that he had little to eat in Los Angeles the week of the fight.

What are the medical costs of sexual deviance and promiscuity? Whats the price of gluttony? How about laziness, slothfulness, sedentary lifestyles etc. what is...

    CBS Mark Knoller reports that the Obama Administration is on pace to more than triple the output of rounds of golf played by a president while in office. In his first nine months in office, President Barack Obama has played 24 rounds of golf. It took President Bush 34 months to play as many holes. The Presidents Press Secretary, Robert Gibbs, attributed the feat to the superior dynamism of an agenda focused on hope and change. The faster pace set by the President is emblematic of the energy he has brought into the White House. It should bolster confidence in...

When you have a little competitionit requires them to come to practice and be prepared every day. If they have a good week of practice, they know youll see them get a chance to play more on Saturday. It has helped us and you can see it in our offensive work. The Cowboys seem to be ready for the challenge too. I always felt good about playing...

Does Iran want the Palestinian peace process to pass through nuclear reactions?

    Heading into Sundays match up against the Cincinnati Bengals, the Texans had posted two wins this season against teams with a combined record of 1-9. Beating a red-hot Bengals team, who were riding a four game winning streak, would certainly be a needed shot in the arm, and a great way to silence critics who claim that this is indeed another Texans team going nowhere soon. Heart wrenching losses and erratic decision making over the past few weeks have certainly heightened that uncertainty, and falling to 2-4 would have placed the team in a very precarious position, but Matt Schaub...

But was Limbaugh treated unfairly by the sports media? Maybe.

Why is is the Rush story important? Because they've called him a racist. A serious charge. Words mean things, and the misuse of words cheapens them. Everyone on all sides have thrown "Hitler" and "Nazi" around until, unfortunately, being called a mass murderer or a member of his hideous regime is no longer an insult.

This game has been a hot topic of conversation since the last meeting, a high scoring affair where Texas topped OU, 45 -35. This year Oklahomas record is 3-2, while Texas is 5-0.

    The concern and negativity expressed by NFL commissioner Roger Goodell, Indianapolis Colts' owner Jim Irsay, and NFL Players Association executive director DeMaurice Smith over Rush Limbaugh potentially becoming a limited owner for the St. Louis Rams was certainly the right thing to do from a public relations standpoint. And it certainly accomplished its goal, as Dave Checketts essentially had no choice but to drop Limbaugh from his group that is interested in the franchise, which he did last week. But from a business standpoint, it sends a bad message to prospective owners and could end up hurting the leagues bottom...

    ...Game 1 of the NLCS pits Cole Hamels and the Philadelphia Phillies against Clayton Kershaw and the Los Angeles Dodgers in a match-up of dynamic young lefties. Both teams boast powerful offenses to challenge those starters. ... Two big questions loom over Game 1, and in this series: Will Joe Torre do what Jim Tracy wouldnt? Ryan Howard went 6-for-12 vs right-handed pitchers and 0-for-4 vs. lefties in the Phillies first-round series. Over the course of his career, hes put up Hall of Fame numbers vs. righties and utility-infielder numbers vs. lefties. Yet time and time again, Rockies manager Jim...

    And professional "journalists" were only too happy to repeat the lies as if they were fact!An ongoing campaign to demonize, delegitimize and criminalize conservatives. Much of the same happened with Sarah Palin. The Rush Limbaugh media lynch mob By Toby Harnden The Telegraph October 14th, 2009 Which public figure can be quoted as having said something bigoted and disgusting and it doesnt matter whether he did or not because he might have? Who can Big Media brand a racist without checking the facts? Who has to prove he did not say something racist, rather than the accuser proving he did?A...

    Here is audio from today of Rush Limbaugh revealing details of his involvement in a group attempting to buy the St. Louis Rams. Rush said he was approached to be a part of the group, and that he asked Dave Checketts if he understood the "firestorm" that would result from his involvement. Rush said Checketts told him he did, and that he had cleared this with the "highest levels of the NFL." Rush says this has happened to him because he is a conservative, and that it reflects the fact the NFL is following the lead of "Obama's America." (VIDEO)

And this is the NFL Roger Goodell wants to protect from Rush Limbaugh comments?...... Smith's e-mail rejects discrimination. Well, is it not discriminatory in America to want to exclude someone from a business venture simply because one does not agree with that person's politics?.....
  • Wash Post: Flack Toward Barack Grounds For NFL Ownership Denial

    Thanks to the Washington Post's Roman Oben, we now have complete clarity on the new rules for potential NFL team owners: Obama critics need not apply. In a candid moment during today's Al Sharpton radio show (probably not intended for the rest of us to hear), Oben admitted that Rush's political views regarding Obama were key to the opposition that appears to have derailed his bid to purchase the St Louis Rams. Were the fabricated racist statements and overall smear campaign simply added to camouflage the real (partisan political) agenda? Oben's revelation comes a day after news that Barack-tart Fergie...

    Mark Levin Show ^ | 10-14-09 | Mark Levin
    On Wednesday's Mark Levin Show: Mark discusses Rush Limbaugh being denied a chance to be one of the owners of the St. Louis Rams. This wasn't a big deal until Al Sharpton came around and started lambasting him for being a conservative. This is more than just ownership of a football team, this is about liberty and being able to participate in this society as a legal citizen, and Rush is being denied that. So, Mark brings up some of Al Sharpton's past shady dealings and asks where was the outrage against him back then? He also calls Al Sharpton...

    Michael Myers, head of the New York Civil Rights Coalition, nails the Rush Limbaugh situation by labeling it "racial buffoonery." It's good to see that there are other black people like myself who aren't falling for the nonsense. The left again uses black paranoia to achieve a goal that does nothing to benefit black people. They keep people riled up over foolishness. Meanwhile, inner cities crumble and 70% of black children don't know what it means to have a father and mother in the home. It's a shame and travesty that it's true. If we want to "advance" people, we...

    ST. LOUIS -- Conservative radio talk show host Rush Limbaugh today was booted from a group seeking to buy the St. Louis Rams because fabricated Wikiquotes now constitute rock solid evidence on which the MSM can base race card smear campaigns. Limbaugh, meanwhile, said on his radio show that he'll take his $450 billion personal war chest -- earned exclusively by the increasingly anachronistic expression "sweat of his own brow" -- and launch a bid for the Republican presidential nomination against Democrat pResident Barack Obama in 2012. "Folks, I don't even know if he plans to run for a second...
