Sideline Chatter

Dwight Perry has had a good week:

  • Chris Dufresne of the Los Angeles Times, trying to figure out what the fuss in college football is all about: “Really, except for three times since 2000, when has the BCS failed us?”
  • “When I get back,” banished Pacer Ron Artest vowed to Indianapolis’ WHHH radio, “I’m going to prevent things like that from happening.”

    Uh, right.

    And in the meantime, O.J. Simpson is going to help him look for the real Pacer who ran up into the stands.

  • Just wondering: If it’s really fantasy football, shouldn’t Nicollette Sheridan be a No. 1 draft pick?
  • Caught a glimpse of the NBA highlights from Detroit on Friday night, and there for a second we thought they’d ended the NHL lockout.
  • Saints owner Tom Benson, no doubt realizing he had spoken out of anger and was not thinking clearly when he said his NFL team “looked like high-school kids” in Sunday’s 34-13 loss to Denver, is reportedly being pressured to issue a blanket apology.

    To all the high-school kids.
