Firing Don Imus is the only solutionHere are my reasons1. What is said, although he is allowed to say it, doesn't mean he shouldn't be held accountable.2.

Wow. I can see Yankees fans, despite there recent failures are still alive and well.Here are my reasons why they will not!1.CompetitionThe Red Sox may have struggled last year but I would still put the bats of Ortiz and Rameriez up against any combination of Yankees hitters.

Money buys wins. This statement is true in Basketball & Football, but not so in baseball.

I am a veteran of the war in Iraq. I also try to follow as much as I can on the news.

I am a man. That is a fact that I cannot change, and would never change.

Politics, News & Issues > Football Why college football players are treated like celebrities: 3 of 10
There are valid points on both ends of this debate. On one hand these athletes aren't making any money and are always playing for a chance at the show (much like the minors in baseball) and that point will always draw fans among American fans who believe in the purity of the sport. On the other hand they are just kids, colleg... More..

Entertainment > TV Genres & Trends Best current television series: 33 of 103
I believe the best current TV show is Scrubs on NBC. I think there are many other good ones but none are as diverse and comical as Scrubs. I think it portrays the hospital life in a more real light than other attempts. The actors are solid in there character roles and the storyline is very inventive and original. Zach Braff h... More..
