As most know, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad sent a letter representing the views of the Iranian people to President Bush, via the Swiss, this week. While portrayed as a diplomatic opening between two nations, this is the first letter to an American President since the 1979 hostage crisis. Though unofficial, the doghouse was able to obtain what is thought to be an accurate copy of the

The latest news from the NFL equivalent of 'All My Children' is that the Lions will forfeit two off season training days this week in order to settle a grievance with the NFL Players Association. Players will not be required to attend previously scheduled workouts Monday and Tuesday, but will still be paid for them. The complaints stem, as reported by Dan Wetzel of Yahoo sports from April

We at the doghouse are a little concerned over this SEC led witch hunt taking place against the USC program and its' student athletes. Carroll himself is confident that the program will beat these charges, but its' disturbing that they are being forced to do so.

I TIVO'd the draft, both days of course, so I could replay parts where the wife spoke over St Mel of the Hair.

The Minnesota Vikings stunned their fan Thursday when they presented their bold new design for the team uniform in a party reminiscent of a NY runway show. As you can see in video of the event, the Viking players 'honored' to be present all shared in the excitement. Red faces and baleful looks aside, all the players shared one thought in common, 'I'm not getting paid enough for this shit'.

In a piece of (insert adjective here) work they released recently titled, 'Top Draft Busts of the Modern Era', they named Joey Harrington as the #2 bust of all time. Really?

What is your sleeping pose? Based on the apparently irrelevant questions from the site 'the secret language of sleep', I am a 'Tetherball' sleeper. As you can surmise from the picture at left, this is defined as a thumb sucking girlie man who sleeps in fear next to a giant Amazon.

Michael Theleman of Bray, Oklahoma advertised he would pay $1,000 for a virgin bride between the ages of 12 and 24.

In a move clearly designed to reinforce the 'decisive' image of this administration, they have announced the hiring of Palo the mime as the new White House Press Secretary.

I know I'll never get those 5 minutes of my life back, but at least I can say the frogs all line up...Ok, so it isn't so hard. However, if you want to increase the difficulty, try doing that with my dogs :o)...

Michael Keaton had those words before throwing out the opening pitch in the Pirates home opener, wearing a Hines Ward 86 cap. Um, we all love Football Michael but can't you at least 'act' to care about Baseball? Who am I to talk though, I couldn't even tell you who won (unless you are talking about Seattle who

Western Culture has now truly arrived in the Southwest Pacific. For those of you that may not have heard, Playboy has added Indonesia to its’ list of over 20 countries that receive a form of Hue’s magazine.

While we have Christmas in April in 19 days (NFL Draft, woo hoo), i'm still figuring out what Peter owes Paul. Would have been done earlier, but on principal, I didn't want to disconnect my router, and of course, my tax program wouldn't work with it. Sigh. Half done, too sick to do the rest.

Apparently Wallace and Gromit weren't to far off base when they produced their last movie. According to news reports in London a giant rabbit has been terrorizing and eating a swath through gardens in Northeastern England, so much so that local residents have hired armed guards to protect their vegetable patches. The Daffy Duck detective agency has not commented publicly since being hired, but in

I stumbled upon this picture today taken from a NY Ranger's hockey game. Don't know when, don't know against who, just found the woman's expression troubling.

As reported by the associated press in the washingtonpost.com, a 25 year old Wisconsin man was sentenced to one year of jail and ten years of probation for his second conviction for stealing panties. While the latest charge involves the theft of three pairs of 'distinctive' looking panties, overall police say they can link him to 854 thefts. His sentence carries a $2,500 fine (that’s a lot of

Lead story on the 11:00 CBS (local) evening news is about the hunt for an online predator. Apparently, a 21 year old man from CT has been meeting girls using the website Myspace.com, and the police now have a warrant for his arrest for statutory rape. The suspect has apparently fled the jurisdiction, but the police are confident they will catch him. Why you may ask? Well, as they announce to

Microsoft corp. announced this week that it is adding 100 customer service positions in its’ Fargo, ND location. While I fully support Microsoft’s initiative at improving customer service for their office products, I’m just concerned about a growing trend in corporations these days to outsource jobs away from Americans.

The NBC news show, “Dateline NBC” has raised the ire of NASCAR during its’ latest investigative report. Operating from results of a recent Washington Post/ABC News poll that NBC apparently found ‘intriguing’, the show has launched a nationwide look into a (reportedly) growing anti-Muslim sentiment in America. [In a side note, CBS will investigate why NBC is operating from data collected by ABC.

After 9,000 years it is nice to see that some things haven’t changed. Take for instance the recent discovery that prehistoric man not only had the gift of fire, speech, and tools, but the ability to inflict excruciating pain on family and friends. We’re not talking about being forced to watch your nephew’s kindergarten play on the food groups or looking at Aunt Dora’s fat camp vacation photos.

No, I wasn't back home in Sherwood playing 'tip the cow' with the old John Deere. What happened today was a relapse. I had been hooked for years, the habit was engrained in my very fiber, so much a part of me that I felt empty without it.

Twenty years in the making, Bud Selig announced Baseball will begin investigating the illegal steroid use by Barry Bonds and others.

Warrick Dunn, the 10th year pro out of Florida State, now playing for the Atlanta Falcons, made an appearance on the ESPN sports morning show ‘Cold Pizza’ today. Now I’m paraphrasing since I failed to tivo the spot, but at one point during the interview, show host Jay Crawford asked Warrick “who is to blame for the Falcons offensive struggles in 2005?” [Note: Atlanta finished the 2005 season

Maybe what we need is more crying in professional sports. To often labeled a sign of weakness, people should start seeing it for what it also is, a sign of passion.
