Golden Fleeced?

A day late, or so, but good analysis by Danny O'Neil on the Golden Tate catch Monday night vs. the Cheese. 

My analysis: 
1) Wouldn't be an issue if it was any team but the Cheese, the Belichicks or the Stealers! 
2) If it was caught by the Cheese, the national media would be saying things like "The Cheese did what great teams do - put themselves in a position to win", and 3) See O'Neil's #4 and...get over it!!!

The Wife of Jesus?

All over the internet this week has been the story of a fragment of an ancient Egyptian document with the words "Jesus said to them, 'My wife...'" In all, the fragment contains just 33 words and incomplete sentences - an English teacher's worst nightmare! Karen King of Harvard University, one of the scholars charged with analyzing the fragment, stopped short of saying this proves Jesus was married, only to add that some ancient Christians thought Jesus was in fact married...to a woman...just to clarify...thought I'd throw that in for free!
Over the years, as these sorts of discoveries are unearthed and plastered all of the media, I've found these scholars (and there are more) to be level-headed, fair and accurate in their commentary. Check it out!
