Students complain about their professors being too hard on their papers when it comes to grammar and spelling. But can you blame them? Professors have to grade papers from star pupils at the "Derek Zoolander Center for Children Who Can't Read Good and Wanna Learn to Do Other Stuff Good Too."

Nike has found the solution to help you "Leave Nothing."A few weeks ago, when I was watching SportsCenter, I saw the new Nike football commercial during one of the breaks.

It was a well done 30- to 40-second clip in which you see a few of the best players in the league making plays with the help of Nike.

But, at the end of the commercial, I was not left thinking about football - or Nike. It actually made me think about Michael Vick.

When Vick was indicted by a federal grand jury July 17, according to ESPN.com news services, he quickly lost everything.

The New York Times reported Sept. 10 that federal prison chaplains, acting under government orders, have been removing thousands of religious texts per penitentiary so only about 150 titles for each major religion will remain. These titles appear on an unreleased list of books approved by unnamed "experts."The Bureau of Prisons, an agency of the Justice Department, wants, in light of the 9/11 attacks, to prevent prisoners from reading books that might advocate violence or radicalize.

After 21 years and 26 matches, the soccer team will be looking for the program's first win against SMU tonight in Dallas.Since TCU's first match with SMU back in 1986, the team has an all-time record of 0-24-2 against the Mustangs including a 2-0 loss last season in Fort Worth.

Even with the 0-24-2 all-time record, freshman defender and midfielder Cheryl Martin guaranteed a win for the Horned Frogs.

"I think that our team this year, we're so much better," Martin said. "There's no chance we won't beat them."

There was nothing civil about Andrew Meyer, the 21-year-old University of Florida student who met the business end of a Taser on Monday at a John Kerry forum.

Fantasy football is all about sure bets and calculated risks, but no one expected the big three running backs of this year's draft to become risks on game-day rosters.LaDainian Tomlinson, Steven Jackson and Larry Johnson are all struggling so far this season, even though LT is still finding ways to rack up points by playing quarterback and wide receiver.

Though Jackson apologizes to teammates, and Johnson takes a random day off, make sure to stick it out with these guys and not to take any cheap deals from owners looking to buy low.
