Sometimes, things that are obvious need to be said. I'm here to say them. The following observations or questions are not earth shattering, ground breaking, or particularly insightful.

But then again, what everybody is thinking might not be what everybody is saying out loud.

Devin Hester is the best human to ever field a kicked NFL spheroid.

Fantasy Football is a multi-billion dollar industry that is about 15 minutes away from "jumping the shark."

If you are a woman, admit it: you would get divorced just to have a one-night stand with Tom Brady.

There's no rational way to explain the Reds hiring Dusty "Mr. 30 Games Under .500" Baker.

ESPN's "Town Hall Meeting" on the "Michael Vick Situation" did not help bridge racial understanding.

It is impossible not to stare in awe and wonder at Cris Collinsworth's head and Mitch Albom's ears.

The NFL should drop the pretense on the 2-minute warning and just say: "Time For More Commercials, Suckas!"

In a "Jeopardy" showdown between a professional baseball player and a supermodel, I would choose the supermodel. At least she's slept with some successful, intelligent people.

Here's a phrase no NASCAR fan has ever said: "Hmm. Chevy, Ford, Dodge. Makes no difference to me."

The Segway Personal Transporter never really caught on.

Everybody says beers cost too much at the stadium. Nobody ever says what they think a "fair" price would be, however.

If you are a guy who loves to watch pro wrestling, you'd better leave that conversation out of any first date.

What's more overrated? Seeing a no-hitter in person, or rushing the field after a big victory?

Not to alarm anybody, but football is on TV just about every day of the week except Wednesday. Let's just get it over with, and give SpikeTV that night, and the rights to anything below Division II.

Go ahead I dare you: Use the word "ensuing" in a context other than "penalty" or "kickoff."

Rip Bill Belichick all you want. Hooded sweatshirts are maybe the most comfortable piece of clothing ever. Ever.

Three worst McDonalds items ever: 1: McRib 2. McDLT 3. McPizza

I'm happy that Evander Holyfield finally found somebody who would license him to fight again. No really. The dude loves to box. It's his brain. Let him do with it what he wants.

Michelle Wie should fire her parents, not her agents.

Kurt Warner got hurt again? No kidding?

If Roger Goodell actually allows the Super Bowl to be played outside of America, I'll personally jump his ass at lunchtime in Manhattan, and take the misdemeanor assault rap.

The chance that this year's "National Championship Game" in the BCS includes at least one team few people in America think deserves to be there, is roughly 99 percent.

When you have two men in the booth for a football game, they generally concentrate on serving the viewers. When you add a third, they almost always pander to each other.

If you cleaned the pine tar off Manny's helmet to reveal a nice shiny Boston "B", would he be pissed off? Could you somehow put a full season worth of tar "back on" in a matter of hours if he wanted it that way?

More exciting: a bases-loaded, inning-ending double play or a goal line stand? Debate amongst yourselves.

If the NFL cared about its product, they would mandate each team carry four active quarterbacks and make roster space and salary cap room to accommodate it. Having guys called off the couch to play on five days' notice is a total joke.

Joe Buck and Chris Fowler are simply excellent, excellent sports broadcasters yet seldom get much credit for it.

If Bobby Knight had committed the repeated "Don't Do That Again!" violations at Indiana that Kelvin Sampson has just done, Bob Ley would have convened another "Town Hall Meeting" on it.

Will somebody from the NBA e-mail me when the season actually begins? Thanks.
