OK, I did call us to lose to the Chargers. But why do the Eagles have to torture me with almost comebacks?

Is she a perpetrator of shameful behavior? Absolutely. But she is also a victim of a media that thrives -- dare I say, survives -- on such lurid episodes.

Congratulations to the Pittsburgh Pirates. By losing yesterday they officially set the record. 17 straight losing seasons. Nobody, in any major sport, has done it better.

The NFL won't allow players to tweet during games. Ya' mean cellphone calls are OK in the huddle?

Sunday nights have been sacred television time in my house for years now. That's thanks to David Chase and, especially, to Don Hewitt and the cast, producers and staff of 60 Minutes.

Vick has paid his debt to society. Yes, he practiced killing and torture and violated the code of conduct he was sworn to uphold. That doesn't make him a monster. That makes him Dick Cheney.

Michael Vick will need to realize that he triggered in his fans and certainly all animal lovers the 3 H's of Hurt, Hate and Hesitation to Trust. To reverse each of those he will need to respond with the 3 R's of Remorse, Restitution and Rehabilitation before those people will give him a second chance.
