Brett Favre is BACK
Most people thought Brett Favre had played his last game on New Year's Eve. Even John Madden said on national TV he thought Favre would not come back. But Favre will play another season for the packers. Even not at the top of his games, he still has a lot left in him. Plus, he is far better than mos...

Next Terror Attack?
It has been about 5 and a half years since 9/11. No one talks about Bin Laden or terroists except those in Iraq these days. If the terrorists want to pull off a surprise attack, this may seem like a good time. Right before 9/11, the top news was about the CA congressman Gary Condit and his involveme...

MSNBC is closing its NJ headquarter and laying off over 700 employees. Even with heavy hitters from the left like Chris Mathew and keith Olbermann, MSNBC has been trailing FOX and CNN at the distant 3rd place. They used to have an evening full of programs. Now, only Olbermann at 7 and Joe Scarboroug...
