CU Prez is outta there

The president of the University of Cololardo recently resigned, apparently having been tarnished irreperably by the scandal with sexual assualts and the football team as well as their genius of a prof. Ward Churchill. CU President Elizabeth Hoffman stepped down a couple of weeks ago. Not saying she should not resign, but how does football coach Gary Burnett keep his job when the president and athletic director are already gone becuase of something that happened with the football program? Kind of makes you wonder, doesn't it?

Romanowksi in court

Former Raider, Bronco and Niner linebacker Bill Roidakowski, whoops I meant to say Romanowski, is being sued by a former player that he punched out and allegedly ended that player's career. The other guy, Roland Williams, who was a Tight End, ended up with a broken eye socket and brain damage (but not necessarily as much damage as their could be to Romanowski's) and appears to have a good case. He may not get the nearly $4 million he asks for, but in California, you never know.

If you recall Romanowski was in trouble with the law over prescriptions near the end of his career as well. But the best part is that Romanowski's lawyer thinks that if Roid boy loses, the Raiders should have to pay it. How the hell does he figure that? Did Bill punch him in the head too and mess up his judgement? Sounds like PFD to me.

Surprised that Kobe settled?

I am not at all surprised. First of all it probably saved what was left of his image by settling instead of risking it going to court. I personally think he probably would have lost, I think most people, myself included, think he was guilty in the first place.

As far as basketball goes, I don't think anyone is surprised that the Lakers are worse off with Kobe being the man than they were with Shaq (and Phil).
