Mike Holmgren owes Bill Cowher and NFL Fans an Apology

...fuses to admit that Holmgren snubbed Cowher because he was angry. I wonder if this story would have been bigger had it been Bill Belichick that got shafted?

Don't get me wrong, I didn't have any axe to grind with Mike Holmgren, not until he pulled this nonsense. I've always thought he was a stand up guy, I even pulled for him and his Super bowl champion green Bay Packers in 97'. You see Mike has been around the block a few times. He's not some 35 year old hot-head who's never seen the inside of the Super bowl. The man has been there twice not including this last appearance, walking away with one trophy and one heartache. For him to be such a veteran coach with so much big game experience makes this insult and lack of respect from him even harder to swallow.

The NFL is talking about fining him for the remarks he made to the home town crowd in Seattle, in which he insinuated that the referee's were responsible for their loss to the World champion Pittsburgh Steelers. I sincerely hope they levy the largest fine possible on his plump "wallet". Because the statement is not true. The Seattle Seahawks had just as much chance to win that game as did the Pittsburgh Steelers, but it was a battle of coaching and Holmgren was definitely out coached by Cowher. In the waning minutes of both halves of the game, Holmgren was managing the clock like it was a pre-season contest, not the Super bowl. Constant mistakes which ground away the clock and his teams chance to win. His kicker missed field goals, field goals that super bowl champ's MUST make, just ask the New England Patriots. His best receiver dropped nearly every pass thrown his way. His MVP of the league running back never saw the inside of the end zone. Holmgren started the gam...more

Aki Riihilahti marked his first start for Crystal Palace since September with the winning goal against Cardiff City. Palace, at 4/5 took the lead after 70 minutes and an equaliser for Cameron Jerome was disallowed for an earlier foul.

Preston were the only play-off team to slip up, being held to a goalless draw at Stoke. North End, now unbeaten in 22 matches, will have disappointed backers at 7/5 after Paul McKenna missed a penalty with three minutes remaining.

It almost seems unfair that the usc Trojans were able to lure so many talented prep stars from all around the country, many positions (RB,DB) which were a concern of the coaching staff due to depth are now now team strenghts.

Running Back was a need and the usc Trojans got 4 of the best in the nation with ...more

The Risk of Developing Skin Cancer From Tanning Booths

...lemented by tanning booths as the health culprit. Tanning booths use various types of lamps in the tanning process, one hundred sixty watt very high output lamps are used, as well as standard one hundred watt high output lamps. Long-term exposure to ultraviolet lamps, like the ones used in tanning booths, can cause skin cancer by altering the structure of the DNA. In 2000, the American government's National Institutes of Health released the tenth edition of it's Report of Carcinogens. The agency listed solar radiation, artificial sources of ultraviolet rays, sun lamps, and tanning beds amongst it's list of cancer-causing agents.

The National Cancer Institute insist that consistent exposure to artificial tanning trumps up the negative effects of the sunlight by causing the skin to thin-becoming less able to heal. The Institute cites people with fair skin and light, red, or blonde hair as the most susceptible to ...more
