Dumb statements
Michael Vick, the hotshot quarterback for Atlanta Falcons, said:
"I'm growing my hair out it, and I'm not going to cut it until we win a Super Bowl," Vick said. "I was going to let my hair grow last season, but I cut it three weeks before I got hurt. I'm really superstitious, so I'm going to let it grow. As bad as I want it off my head, and as hot as I am, I won't cut it off until I win a Super Bowl. I will win a Super Bowl -- someday."
Yes, he stated that he will grow a huge fro until he wins the championship...um, how about trying to be better at your position or try to recruit better players on your team? Doesn't that sound like a better chance of winning the Superbowl?
Aiya.
This statement reminds me of my freshman roommate, Dan Starin, who told me and his gf (his gf would be always in our room and she would sleep with him and argue in bed, but thats another story) that he would not due laundry for one whole semester in order to save money. Granted that laundry is expensive, but what the freak, his clothes smelled like sh*t and his pile of clothes spread all over the floor from his side to my side. It was like a clothes outbreak. However, I am glad to have a dirty and rude roommate, because I can tolerate people more. Plus, last I heard, Dan didn't graduate on time. Go figure, do some laundry and you might have clothes to wear to class!

New York may sell transit stop names
Facing what it says could be budget gaps of more than $1 billion in the coming years, the Metropolitan Transportation Authority is exploring the sale of naming rights to its subway stations, bus lines, bridges and tunnels.
Officials quietly issued a formal request for proposals last month from marketing firms that they would charge with landing sponsorship deals that could include anything from renaming historic stations to attaching corporate monikers to building projects such as the long-awaited Second Avenue subway.
Also last month, MTA proposed a sweeping list of fare and toll increases and cutbacks.
