Next week, Shaquille O'Neal is set to meet with the Orlando Magic regarding their vacant General Manager position. Shaquille O'Neal played his first 4 NBA seasons with the Magic out of his 19 year career. It is rumored that Shaq and the Magic's top player Dwight Howard do not have the greatest relationship as Shaq claims that Dwight's nickname "Superman" belongs to him. And Shaq said that Lakers Center Andrew Bynum is the best big man in the NBA not Dwight.

The number of babies born with neonatal abstinence syndrome, (NAS) has tripled in the last decade. This means that babies are born being addicted to drugs due to their mothers abuse so they are going through withdrawals after they are born. symptoms include: irritability, difficulty feeding, difficulty breathing, and low birth weight. Scientists did tests on all the mothers who gave birth to babies with (NAS) and tests showed that not all mothers who were addicted had addicted babies and some of the mothers not addicted to opiates but were using them correctly also had babies with (NAS).

Brett Favre signed with the Milwaukee Bucks. The deal is worth $1.43 billion and he is now the highest paid player ever in any sport in the world. He is going to be starting small forward which is a spot needed to be filled by the Bucks. He is scheduled to start tomorrow after no days of practice. Brett is quoted to have said, "I dont need any practice because I am a natural athlete and I play basketball in my driveway with my daughter." We will see how he performs against Lebron James and the Heat. Favre said he is very confident against the King without a Ring."

Peyton Manning has finally made his decision to go to the Broncos. He has not only decided his future but made all the teams who thought they had a chance at him go back to the drawing board and start over. He has made a really influential move because other teams now need to figure out how to be successful without him. He has also influenced the other teams because now Tim Tebow is on the trade market because they want to get something useful out of him besides LUCK and publicity. Tebow sucks...

Reasoning are finally made clear about why Joe Paterno was fired from Penn State Head Football Coaching  job. He was let go for the failure to show leadership because he did not take the situation further than just telling higher management. He was only supposed to tell people in higher power but the people said that that wasn't good enough to keep his job, they say he should have told authorities or tried harder to stop Sandusky.

The Peyton Manning era is over in Indianapolis. A news conference Wednesday morning at 9 a.m consisted of the teams owner saying Manning is released. Teams that are interested in Manning now The Miami Dolphins, New York Jets, Seattle Seahawks, and Arizona Cardinals. Who know where he'll end up because there is another Quarterback free agent: Matt Flynn. He has proven himself by setting a Green Bay Packers record of 6 TD passes in one game. This years off-season will be exciting.

In this up-coming season, the Green Bay Packers are planning on raising their prices on tickets to games. According to the team general manger it is not to increase a profit that is already pretty big, it is about staying among the middle of the pack in the NFL for ticket prices. They are not trying to be the most expensive or the least expensive but throughout all the NFL prices are rising and the Packers want to keep their place in the middle of the pack. In my opinion, I think this won't make a big difference in sales because the Packer fans in Wisconsin are true fans and will go to games no matter what and the stadium expansion will open up more seats available for more fans.

Last week in De Pere Wisconsin, a man named Denis Bay killed his wife, two kids, and then himself. No one has figured out why he did it yet but they are waiting for tests to see if he was under the influence of anything or on medical drugs. His daughter Andrea, was a freshmen at De Pere High School and his son Daniel, was a fourth grader. He had lost his job in March of 2011 and he and his wife were currently before the killings going through a divorce. The people of the school and town set up a roadside memorial for the whole family including the father. It is at the base of a stop sign on South Erie Street. The school has counselors going into the fourth grade classrooms and High School classrooms to help the students friends.

President Obama is calling for a $5-$10 billion dollar plan to help people refinance their home. Nearly 11 million people in America are underwater on their mortgages which means they owe more than their house is worth. Millions more have already lost their homes because of this. Obama's proposal still needs approval but would be open to people who have been current on their payments for the last six months and have no more than one missed payment in the prior six months. The administration also wants to broaden its Home Affordable Refinance Program, which wants to provide refinancing options to borrowers who are in trouble with payments and have no equity in their homes.

This past weekend there were two Conference Championship games; one in the NFC and one in the AFC.
Both games were decided by a field goal and each team who lost had big chances to win. In the Baltimore-New England game; the kicker Billy Cundiff missed a 32 yard field goal with 11 seconds left in the game to tie it. The coach after the game said he did not blame the kicker for losing the game but he was still upset about the loss. And in the San Francisco-New York game, the punt returner fumbled a punt in overtime which led to the Giants making a game winning field goal. Since the game, the returner has been receiving death threats.

Burger King is now delivering food to homes in two states, Virginia and Maryland. There are 9 stores in Maryland and 3 in Virginia. The restaurants are trying to only deliver within a ten minutes radius so that the food stays "fresh". They say that the meals must be at least $8-$10 with a $2 delivery fee and they don't deliver coffee, shakes, or breakfast food for some reason. Delivery hours are 11:00a.m-10:00p.m.  There isn't word yet of this spreading but this experiment is surely showing signs of future happenings. Soon, people will be able to eat unhealthy, greasy food without hardly walking.
