Captain America Dies, NFL Moves

Can this be true? Captain America is dead? Apparently so. He always seemed to be treated as 'lower-tier' super-hero, but he was a super-hero none-the-less. What is the world going to come to without Captain America?


Lots more names popping up after the latest steroid bust. John Rocker highlights the list and apparently also admits to using HGH. Looks like getting away with using steroids is easy, it is the selling/distributing part that is tough. Users aren't getting caught, the people selling them the stuff are.

In my ongoing crusade to point out how crappy Apple and it's products are...their iTunes interface doesn't work properly with Windows Vista. What is stupid about the iTunes interface itself is that it always has to 'sync' with your iPod. How lame is that? Buy a good mp3/video player, plug it into your usb port and copy/paste your media to your device...that's how simple every other portable player is except for the iPod...so why is it better?

Free agency and trading in the NFL is in full swing. The Dolphins sign Joey Porter - the Dolphins have traditionally been a good defensive team and adding Porter at linebacker will only solidify that defense. But are they focusing too much on defense and not enough on offense? The Jets get Thomas Jones from the Bears. With Curtis Martin all but used up the Jets have lacked a consistent runner. Thomas Jones seemed to run real good for the Bears and then the Bears would sit him and put in Cedric Benson, obviously wanting Benson to be the future feature back for the Bears. Also in Bears news, Lance Briggs has asked to be traded from Chicago and the Chicago management has said that they will not trade him. Things not looking too sunny for the Bears at the moment. The Broncos have signed tight end Daniel Graham. I don't like the Broncos making any positive moves...this looks like it could be one. I'm sure lots more trades and acquisitions before the season kicks off.
