Packers vs. Broncos in the Superbowl, though it didn't work.

Spokesman Greg Aiello tells The Associated Press the league is "in the process of reviewing all the facts."
Milwaukee's WITI-TV aired video footage in which Collins is seen yelling at a fan as he left the field. Collins then appears to throw his mouthpiece into the stands. According to the station's report, Collins said the fan spit on him and used a racial slur. WITI says Collins apologized for "losing his cool."
Collins had a rough game in some ways. With the game tied at 17-17, Collins picked off Chicago quarterback [url="http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/football/nfl/players/7760"][COLOR=#0066cc">Jay Cutler[/COLOR">[/url] but the play was nullified by a penalty. And on an earlier drive, Collins got called for a late hit on [url="http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/football/nfl/players/8821"][COLOR=#0066cc">Matt Forte[/COLOR">[/url] after a 15-yard reception.[url="http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2010/football/nfl/09/28/packers.collins.ap/index.html?eref=sihp"]http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2010/football/nfl/09/28/packers.collins.ap/index.html?eref=sihp</div>

referendum said:Having Che Guevara on an ad by a private corporation is so inherently ridiculous, its a great example of pc gone mad. Guevara was against private business, he wanted the state to take over private business, he was inherently against the very nature of whatever company it was using him in an ad. Its also offensive and patronizing that whoever came up with this ad just automatically assumes that Che Guevara is some hero in the hispanic community, why, because he was Argentine and spoke Spanish?
That reminds me of seeing little cartoon figures of the Beatles rock band as part of one of those corporate Christmas celebrations. How can you have the Beatles be part of even a watered down, neutered Christmas celebration when one of their songs is about how great it would be if there was no religion.
