Saturday links (no, not golf...)

Palin Fights Back

Rightfully so, Sarah Palin sounded off on Monday on a radio show with John Ziegler in regards to the way the media treated her during her run as McCain's VP candidate.  She brought up a few of the issues that pervade our news media today, including sexism, "class"-ism, and bias towards the Left.  Funny this article was on MSNBC...

Firefighters help out in NFL Practice

The Baltimore Ravens have enlisted the help of 13 local firefighters as a de facto scout team for their walkthroughs in preparation for the playoffs (though they've been helping all season).  This is a great story, and it's nice to see a franchise give back to their community like this.

New Comics!

My roommate and fellow resident manager extraordinare has been making comics for a while now, and has recently posted two new ones (pirate attacks and "the instrument that only lasted one concert").  Check his site out here.

Jon Dwyer - Best Back in 09?

At least Sporting News thinks so.  Can't actually find any links on this one, other than the (scanned-in?) pic of the article on GT's Play at GaTech blog.  Dwyer is a solid pick for this honor, considering he averaged seven yards a carry and was named ACC POTY in 08.  This guy's only a sophmore, folks.  Let's hope he stays around for two more years.
