Tony Kornheiser is kicking butt on Monday Night Football tonight. Joe Theismann uttered perhaps the most moronic statement I've ever heard. He claimed the new Raider offensive coordinator, who had been running a Bed & Breakfast and had been out of football for seven years, was actually in a better position of returning to the NFL than Hall-of-Famer Joe Gibbs in his return a couple of years ago. Thank God, Mr. Tony called him on it.

Time for the Little League World Series. We haven't got to Williamsport yet and we already have controversy. We had a forfeit because one team forgot to bat a kid. The winning team had to forfeit. Kids cried.

And last week, we found out about Cancer Boy. Again, kids cried.

Ain't it great?

The Boy George "I Love New York" campaign. In picture form.

Websites that changed the world. I'm sure you've visited most of them.

Here are the Fox NFL broadcast teams for this year. Joe Buck now hosts the pregame. Looks like Bill Maas didn't make the cut.

Randy Lerner done went and got himself an EPL soccer club, Aston Villa (read the former coaches' quotes). It seems their former Chairman, "Deadly" Doug Ellis, is kind of a Larry Dolan-Art Modell combo. Villa has virtually no debt, but Ellis wouldn't spend any money.

Aston Villa supporters are ecstatic. I think Lerner has a good eye for this team, because he can spend some cash (great TV deals coming), get more fan involvement, and participate in a turnaround of the franchise.
