Here is a look at the Burlington Central-Hampshire rivalry since 2001.

Notre Dame's football season came to an unmerciful end Saturday when the Irish were blasted by USC, putting an ugly cap on a generally ugly season.

Naturally, there's lots of speculation on whether Notre Dame will send coach Charlie Weis packing, despite the years and dollars still left on his contract.

What's in the water down there in Austin, Texas?

First there was Ricky Williams going from stud running back in college to pot smoking has-been in the pros. Then Cedric Benson followed a somewhat similar path, going from standout running back to full-blown disaster here in Chicago. Now, Vince Young goes from being the hero of the Horns' national championship a few years back to being a mental mess with the Titans.

Off the top of my head I can't think of too many Texas products who have struck it big in the pros lately. So remind me to never let my future kid go play football for Mack Brown and the Longhorns. That is, unless I want that kid to some day get wrapped up in some bizarre episode off the field.
