Dan Victor<\/strong> – PSU-OSU is still a big game<\/b><\/a> – CDT Blue<\/i>
\n
Blue’s sports columnist reminds lackadaisical fans out there that this is STILL a big game with a lot at stake, especially bragging rights, in our on border showdown in the Big11Ten<\/strong>. I am keeping the faith by making another “mayor’s bet” with the managing editor of one of Gannett’s Ohio newspapers. He gets stickies if we lose, I get an equivalent product if we win.<\/p>\n

Nittany Lions look to end losing skid<\/b><\/a> – CDT<\/i>
\n
It looks grim for Penn State, but it is pointed out the Lions have apparently behaved off the field this season, unlike OSU.

Happier times, much happier times.<\/p>\n
Ron Bracken<\/strong> – A change at QB is due after another PSU loss<\/b><\/a> – CDT<\/i>
\n
Has any active journalist been on the Penn State beat as long as Ron Bracken<\/strong>? I do not think so. He is calling for frosh QB Anthony Morelli to take over if the Lions lose again.

David Jones<\/b> – No one’s looking, but new coach could be close by<\/b><\/a> – Patriot-News<\/i>
\n
After bashing national college football coverage by junior sportswriters from universities even more prestigious than Jones’ alma mater, THE<\/strong> Ohio State University, Jones actually takes a look possible successors to Joe Paterno, including Iowa’s Kirk Ferentz<\/strong> and shoots down those possibilities. He then stumps for defensive coordinator Tom Bradley<\/strong>. Now, Phil Grosz<\/strong>, Blue White Illustrated<\/em> publisher has publicly said that the next coach will be from outside the program, but then again he has also said that Chad Henne<\/strong> was a lock, we would go 8 – 3 the past two years, and is a huge homer. And just for the whining in the beginning of the article, I have post the succeeding article from Buckeye Buzz, an online only publication that I helped launch for the Newspaper Network of Central Ohio a few years back, because it references an incident between Jones and Paterno in the lead.<\/p>\n

Standard “opposition” newspaper article on Paterno, with the Dave Jones reference.<\/p>\n

TAX ISSUES FOR D.C. BASEBALL<\/h2>\n

Stadium tax scale due for revision<\/b><\/a> – The Wash. Times<\/i>
\n
No surprise that the council is looking at different ways to handle the gross-receipts tax. It is pretty clear that it needs some tweaking.<\/p>\n

Bidders for new team to be charged $100,000<\/b><\/a> – The Wash. Times<\/i>
\n
Oh man, it looks like we are going to have to pass the hat around a little earlier than we thought, just getting into the bidding process will set us back 100K.<\/p>\n

\n
At home with Penn Jillette<\/strong> of Penn & Teller.

To that little boy, I say that Penn could expletive deleted<\/em> with YOUR rock n’ roll lifestyle.<\/p>\n
