CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Carolina Panthers coach John Fox hasn't decided whether to bench Jake Delhomme.
Saying Monday that he doesn't know if the "status quo is the answer or not," Fox indicated he'll decide later this week whether to play Matt Moore or A.J. Feeley ahead of Delhomme, who has an NFL-high 13 interceptions in six games.
It's the first time Fox has wavered on Delhomme, who threw three more picks Sunday, two of which directly led to 14 Bills points in Buffalo's 20-9 win.
Delhomme has been Carolina's starter since 2003, but has just four touchdown passes and a low passer rating.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Citigroup Inc. reports results for its third quarter on Thursday. The following is a summary of key developments and analyst opinion related to the period.
OVERVIEW: Citigroup has been among the banks hardest hit by the credit crisis and recession. It has received $45 billion in loans from the U.S. government – a portion of which was converted to a 34 percent ownership stake – and guarantees to protect against losses on more than $300 billion in risky assets.
The New York-based bank is also reportedly in talks with the U.S. government to reduce its stake in the bank.
Citigroup, like other national banks, has seen more customers stop making their monthly payments as the economy falters and unemployment rises. It's a given Citigroup will see more debtors fail to make payments. The question is whether the rise in defaulting loans is starting to moderate, especially among credit cards and mortgages.
The bank has also been undergoing major management changes in recent months, adding new directors and replacing key executives. Former CFO Gary Crittenden left the bank in July, while the head of its Asia Pacific division, Ajay Banga, left in June.

Now that the "Sex and the City" movie is making women crazy again, I remembered all those girls who drove me nuts trying to be like the Fab Four. Did these girls, in fact, go on to lead the lives of their "Sex and the City" heroes? I decided to call them up and ask.

In the SATC movie, there's a scene where Carrie cautions Charlotte's daughter not to buy into the old Cinderella fairytale. My concern is for women who buy into this new Cinderella rewrite.
