This just in from Jim Barach of WCHS-TV in Charleston, W.Va -

"Rich Rodriguez (former football coach at WVU) calls his move to Michigan 'a mistake.' In a related story, Boston says it probably shouldn't have traded Babe Ruth to the Yankees."

From Picasner's snores to our ears. With the nations multi-millionaire gladiators competing for our attention in televised battles from hockey rinks and basketball arenas, televised baseball comes in a distant third for entertainment value. However, with Flash at the mike, it remains the number one over-the-counter cure for insomnia.

And for our What Planet is This? moment, conspiracy theorist and fear-mongering talk radio jock Michael Savage opined the following with a caller:

Referring to the Navy Seal operation that took out Osama bin Laden, Savage opined, "Suppose they ginned up the whole thing. Suppose Bin Laden died of natural causes five years ago."

Caller: "Wouldn't that be despicable for the President to do something like that?

Savage, setting a new standard for cynicisim: "Well, I wouldn't put anything past Axelrod and Rahm Emanuel (referring to two of the President's close advisors)."

Move over Donald. We have a new Supreme NEWT for Life.
