Rockets general manager Carroll Dawson is no teenager but
he was glued to his phone as the N.B.A. trade deadline came and went.
C.D. decided a major deal just wasn't in the cards for the Rockets .
But it was not because of a lack of effort .
When I spoke to Dawson this afternoon he said, "Most of the teams
out there were more interested in helping themselves instead
of helping the Rockets."

Since Gary Kubiak took over as head coach , the Texans
have been called "Denver south". The influx of former Broncos
hasn't been a bad thing , but do they really need a "Plummer".
The plummer works well on Desperate Housewives , but could
Jake Plummer make it work in Houston.
Its not like, choosing who you want on the cover of the new Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue, Beyonce or Gisele Bundchen. There's no wrong answer there .
But when your talking about David Carr or Jake Plummer there might not
be a right answer.

The biggest "American Idol" might be Tiger Woods, and he
can't really carry a tune . But a lot of his critics are singing loudly
about Mr. Woods pulling out of the Nissan Open next week.
They say Tiger is ducking a course he always has trouble with,
just to keep his pursuit of Byron Nelson's 11 straight tour wins alive .
I say so what . Even if he is ducking the tournament, and I don't
believe he is . In the sport of golf you can run , but there is really no place to hide.

If Al Gore can be nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize,
Brian Urlacher can certainly be elected Mayor of Chicago.
One Bears fan is so pumped about her team taking on
the Colts in Super Bowl 41, she rented out ad space on her belly
for two tickets to the big game.
It turned out to be a pretty good deal for the advertiser also,
because the woman is 8 months pregnant.
That's really being passionate about your team.
