Anyone who watches the NFL on a regular basis will tell you that Adam “PacMan” Jones is a tremendous talent. Sixth overall pick in the 2005 NFL draft out of West Virginia. Track star speed. A leader on the field.

“One of the easiest playoff games to pick in a long time . . . All you have to do on Sunday is look at Manning and Tony Dungy leading the Colts, and Phil Rivers and Norv Turner leading the Chargers. And we’ll get the AFC Championship game we’ve all been waiting for.”

Football fans everywhere were scratching their heads when the Indianapolis Colts, last year’s Super Bowl champs, were knocked out by the San Diego Chargers and The New York Giants beat the Dallas Cowboys. It seems most people have been under the impression that Peyton Manning is a stronger quarterback than his brother Eli and should, therefore, have had an easier time of getting his team to the next round.

After falling behind 10-0, the LSU Tigers scored 31 unanswered points to blow out the Ohio State Buckeyes in the BCS national title game. It marked the second straight year in which OSU was unable to make the College Football championship game even remotely interesting after the first half. Personally, I was watching the new American Gladiators last night instead of this game. Did anyone else notice Laila Ali sounds like a man? Regardless, the show is still SO bad ass. Gotta love Wolf’s howl. But I digress.

Four games down, seven to go before the champion of the NFL season is crowned. Let’s just hope that the remaining games are better than what the Wild Card round gave us. With the exception of Jacksonville-Pittsburgh, all the games were duds. Seattle blew past Washington after a brief scare to start the second half (Todd Collins on the road was too much for the spirit of Sean Taylor to overcome). Tampa had three weeks to figure out how to beat the Giants and still couldn’t do it, and now every Giants fan has their Super Bowl trip to Phoenix planned. And the Chargers acted like Super Bowl champs after winning their first playoff game in a decade, finally showing up in the second half against a mediocre-at-best Titans team. Maybe last weekend lacked juice because few people really believe any team that won had a shot at the Super Bowl, or even winning this week. The contenders are out to play, so let’s get to it.

Back in 1997, the Indiana State Legislature actually held a vote as to whether or not to make the lightning bug, or firefly depending on your preference, the state insect. It appears they have finally decided to move beyond this exercise in futility and vote instead on whether the daily commuters on I-465 can be allowed to race each other to and from work, thereby freeing up tax-dollars that would normally be spent on police officers who issue speeding tickets.

Several months ago, NASCAR driver Ricky Rudd announced his retirement from the sport. While he cited the typical reasons given by most athletes (i.e. age, wanting to spend more time with family, etc.), the actual reason remained hidden until today.

Tired of being last in the Eastern Conference Central Division, the Chicago Bulls have decided to see if they can entice the legendary Michael Jordan to return. The Bulls currently have the best record of all of the last place divisional teams, but this is little comfort to the management and players, who were expecting at least a minimal rise in status after firing head coach Scott Skiles in December.

New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady took home the 2007 NFL Most Valuable Player award in near unanimous fashion, earning 49 of the 50 votes for the award. Brady was humble and grateful in responding to the news, though he said it gave him an even greater fire to win it all this year.

The games are simple. You run the ball, you throw the ball, you tackle the opponent running the ball. You dribble the ball, you shoot the ball, you rebound missed shots. You pitch the ball, you hit the ball, you run the bases, you catch the ball. You skate, you carry the puck, you pass the puck and you shoot the puck. The sport played is basically the same from the little leagues to the colleges and pros. Right?
