As I was perusing some football sites, I came across the Forbes’ NFL Team Valuations. A traditional opinion voiced by fans posits the Bears are cheap. But it’s not like they have the money to spend, do they? You know, because of something-something-the economy. (more…)

Ditka Wants You To Care About Prostates, Too

by Shea Johnson on Wednesday 5 November 2008 at 9:10 pm

Say hello to the moustache-for-prostate cancer movement. I have a feeling this one will catch on, unlike the short-lived, yet ambitious, Mullets for Literacy.

For the entire month of November, men and fortunate boys — and unfortunate women — are encouraged to display their support for prostate cancer research, on their face. (more…)
