Bledsoe Report and a few random notes


- The independent law firm that was investigating Eric Bledsoe's transcript released its report yesterday. After wasting alot of time and thousands of dollars, they found...nothing. Basically the law firm doesn't believe the reasons the teacher gave for changing the grade. The teacher and superintendent stand behind the grade change, saying that after Bledsoe made up work he earned the 'A' in Algebra III. The school board plans to take no action, making it unlikely the NCAA will take any action against UK. The NCAA and UK will still meet to discuss the report, but UK spokesperson Dewayne Peevy said as far as the University of Kentucky is concerned, the matter is closed.

and some random notes from this week...

- Free Enes.


- Michael Vick has been named the starting QB for the Eagles, prompting the Philadelphia Daily News to print a distasteful, offensive headline on the front page of Wednesday's paper. The headline reads, "Top Dog." The man has paid his debt to society, but some media members refuse to let it go.

- Carmelo Anthony to the Nets? That would be HUGE for the New Jersey Nets, who missed out on all of the top-tier free agents over the summer. He's a punk, but a punk that can turn around a struggling franchise.

- MLB commissioner Bud Selig plans to look into the possibility of expanding the playoffs. Great, let's make a season many think is too long already, even longer. If he thinks expanding the number of teams for the playoffs will help his league compete with the NFL and college football for ratings and attention in October and November, he's sadly mistaken.



- Tom Brady needs a haircut. He looks ridiculous. Maybe Troy Polamalu will ask Brady to join him in those stupid Head & Shoulders commercials.

- Blue turf is stupid. Go Beavers!
