    The Jetsons

    Fascinating topic. I searched for history tv networks. I didn't realize there was a fourth player besides NBC, CBS, and ABC in the early days of TV broadcasting. DuMont Television Network operated from 1946 to 1956. Some of it's programming included Cavalcade of Stars (hosted by Jackie Gleason)...

    Exercise/performance pill found?

    Interesting that the second article says they are working on having testing for detection ready for the Olympics. It appears the cat may be out of the bag already in certain circles. Exercise pills 'increase stamina' http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/7535770.stm Exercise in a pill...

    Shockey

    The Saints have had some bad mojo at the tight end position for a time now. Injuries derailed the speedy and ultra talented Cam Cleeland in the short Ditka reign. Last year Eric Johnson looked tentative coming off his injury, and not much has happened in between that I can think of. Mr...

    Jackson used - N - word

    To make matters worse, liberal commentator Bob Beckel jumped on Hasselbeck, could have been on Hannity and Colmes. The discussion was about what transpired on The View and out of the blue Beckel said Hasselbeck reminds him of one of those Republicans that locks their car door when in a black...

    Jackson used - N - word

    Yes, I've considered that O'Reilly is being coy about the whole affair, and I'm with you and agree with the double hit tactic. IMO, if he is being strategic, he is deflecting too much. He really looks like a ding-a-ling , running around calling the person who leaked the transcript a...

    Jackson used - N - word

    LOL. Y'all are in rare form today. Check out this video of Jackson on youtube? O'Reilly couldn't be more wrong and had every legitimate reason to report the whole story.Edited by: Quiet Speed

    Matt Jones to Jax

    I'm more interested in if any of Matt's peers are offering support. Do whites even network behind the scenes? Who's going to pick up the phone and offer encouragement? How about Brett Favre who has had addictions. He was a little aimless in the beginning. A whole host of fellow compatriots...

    Williams Sisters take a tumble

    Sticking this here because the sisters have appeared to have regrouped for now. Also want to reference a pic in an above post. If we assume Venus Williams is all natural, she�s done a pretty good job of adding body mass since 2007 Wimbledon. Workouts and proper nutrition, I...

    Correction. One, two , three and four seeds gone. Number four Kuznetsova bites the dust.

    Wimbledon 2008

    Here's the way the week two brackets shape up. Possible match up between Fed and Ancic, the last to beat Roger on grass. Oddly, Ancic battled mono and was out for months. The up and down Marat Safin is lurking. The Gasquet - Murray is an interesting match, with the winner most likely taking...

    Wimbledon 2008

    Dang. Now would be a good the time for the photogenic Nicole Vaidisova to make a statement. Jelena Jankovic is the top seed left now.

    Poor Matt Jones

    That's a thought 301. I would certainly point out Ed McCaffrey's career if I had a chance to communicate with Jones. Cut after his first three years, Ed went on to flourish becoming a Pro Bowler and acquired, what, three Super Bowl rings.

    Poor Matt Jones

    Matt Jones needs to hire a personal coach/mentor, if he hasn't already. Let's get this show on the road, time's a wastin'. Someone he can rely on, it works for Tom Brady. Fred Biletnikoff, Don Beebe or someone with that type credentials would not be bad. It would shut up some of the crowd that...

    Media blockout

    What do you know, someone actually makes somewhat of a tiny link between Roger Federer's illness going all the way back to december and his 2008 results. Who knows how severe a case of mononucleosis Roger had. Roger downplays it, but his weight loss was quite noticeable at the French Open. If...

    French Open

    Very disappointing. The jockey for Big Brown said on Saturday "I had no horse". Roger can relate, his game was on vacation except for a few games early in the second set. Nadal is in the groove and playing masterful. He has to switch surfaces now, it remains to be seen if he can do that as...

    French Open

    How in the world does Roger game plan for Nadal who looks superhuman on the red dirt right now? One thing I know, do not get involved in long rallies being stuck behind the baseline, unless you enjoy being shredded in a grinder. Getting aggressive too soon in the point on clay can be disastrous...

    White-Hot Angry Hillary Backer

    The fellow who comments on Hillary's supporters being peeved because Obama has gotten preferential treatment is on to something. In this video Geraldine Ferraro speaks about racial resentment. Amazing turn of events with Ferraro expressing the press has been racist - AGAINST WHITES. Should we...

    Blacks on rise in tennis

    Let's see, we have the Muhammad Ali (Jo-Wilfried Tsonga) of tennis and Jimi Hendrix (Gael Monfils) on the tennis court. I guess we are going to have a decade long build up of the Mozart of tennis. ABC's Nightline featured six year old tennis prodigy, Jan Silva, last evening. The "Tiger Woods...
