SATIRE — The legend of Kevin Kolb is one that began three years ago, when the Philadelphia Eagles selected the University of Houston great in the second round of the 2007 NFL draft.

Now they are addressing their bullpen.
The Brewers signed RHP Takashi Saito…
There are those who can forgive Michael Vick for his sins.
There are those who are struggling to do so.
And then there are those like FOX News commentator Tucker Carlson.
Yesterday, Carlson released the following statement while guest-hosting Sean Hannity’s show:[...]
According to Frank Seravalli of the Philadelphia Daily News, the Flyers have recalled 22-year-old rookie defenseman Erik Gustafsson from Adirondack. Gustafsson leads the Phantoms in points (26) and assists (22) in 33 games.
Gustafsson could make his NHL debut on Thursday in Los Angeles as the orange and black continue their crucial west coast swing against [...]
