I'd love to hear EA Sports explanation of why they insist to include former Cowboys coach Dave Campo in all games. (Source: AP, EASports.com)

• Saudi Arabia added as a new course to the IRL driving circuit. The reaction to Danica Patrick racing in a country that prohibits women from driving would be priceless.
• A smile, grin, smirk or anything remotely resembling a happy emotion from Dion Phaneuf and Markus Naslund. This could even be turned into a game show where aspiring comedians try to force a laugh out of two of the most stern and serious looking athletes out there.

• Former CNN Anchor Aaron Brown given another chance to be on air. It may just be me but I loved watching his reading of newspaper headlines in advance of their morning release. Brown was the calming influence during any major disaster (Hurricane Katrina, the Tsunami, 9/11) whenever he read those headlines. Those headline readings gave me the type of relaxed and calming feeling that perhaps only riding in Nate Newton’s trunk would be able to match.

• Someone explain to me how the new Tiger Woods putting system and the new cone passing system in Madden in the 2006 versions are supposed to be improvements.

• EA Sports explain to me why every Dallas Cowboys coach in Madden looks like Dave Campo.
• Peter King’s Christmas gifts. I’m just curious if everyone got the Sports Illustrated writer coffee related gifts to match his ‘coffeenerdness’.

• SportsCentral anchor Mike Toth to end his unhealthy obsession and man crush on co-anchor Sean McCormick. If I’m Jennifer Hedger I’d start to be concerned about all those “Big Dude” references, especially if McCormick tells his wife that he and Toth have a horseback riding weekend planned.

• A warning given prior to all extreme body gain/loss by celebrities. Have you seen how much weight the formerly portly King Kong director Peter Jackson has lost? I’m talking about grave medical condition weight loss. Peter Jackson’s incredible volume loss ranks perhaps only second to Lindsay Lohan’s stunning body transformation over the past year: from voluptuous to heroin girl-esque physique and now back to curvaceous.

• The lost “Reindeer celebration” from Chad Johnson. Maybe Keyshawn Johnson sabotaged Chad’s celebration. With all the press coverage given to his cousin lately maybe MeShawn just grew jealous.

• The Italian National Hockey federation to relax the regulations on who can qualify to play for the Italian hockey team at the Turin Olympic Games. Just to make the team competitive wouldn’t it be great to allow NHLers with the slightest connection to Italian heritage to suit up? Luongo, Amonte, Spezza, Ricci, DiPietro, Bertuzzi would national heroes.

• The NFL move the San Diego Chargers to the NFC just to avoid situations like the one that saw arguably the most talented team in the league miss the playoffs.

• How 3-hour extended lunches in February (Olympic Hockey) and June (World Cup) will be explained in offices all across North America.

• The debit card swipe machine reader companies to come together and create a universal reader. I’m sick of asking/being told which way the stripe has to face.

• Someone explain to America’s Funniest Home Videos crowds that wearing semi-formal wear to a TV taping that involves dads getting hit in the balls by their kids is a little overkill.

• Jays GM J.P. Riccardi admits his master plan for the upcoming season is to field the all “Initial team”. After signing B.J. Ryan and A.J. Burnett, J.P. will set his sights on acquiring J.T. Snow, F.P. Santangelo, C.C. Sabathia, B.J. Surhoff, J.D. Closser, J.D. Drew, J.J. Hardy and A.J. Pierzynski.

• If Will Ferrell will attend and perform “Dust in the Wind” at actor Patrick “Blue ”Cranshaw’s funeral?

• For FourSport.ca to enjoy another successful year. Happy New Year everyone!
