From Rutgers to Auburn, it sure seems like we're addicted to college sports scandal
Let's fantasize. (No, wait! That's not what I meant. There will be no mention of Katee Sackhoff in her "Starbuck" combat outfit anywhere in this column — uh, other than just now.

UCLA wants more than Ben Howland could deliver—and it's entitled to
How can they fire a coach who just won a conference championship? How can they fire a leader who spent 10 years winning more than twice as many games as he lost? How can they fire a salesman who last season brought in the No. 2-ranked recruiting class...
