Apparently it's a slow news day for Yahoo Sports as well,

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) -- New York Giants tight end Jeremy Shockey threw a cup of ice water over his head and splashed a child in the first quarter of the NFC playoffs against the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday.

THE BASTARD! I sure hope somebody gets suspended for life over that one. And was the child hurt? Of course not.

The boy was given a football by the Giants.

When you can buy somebody off with a football in Super Litigation Land then I think that's a pretty good sign that nothing serious has happened.

Meanwhile, here's a dubious news story which makes me wonder whether April Fools Day has earned a transfer to January.

A California-based group is offering money to drug addicted-men and women in Brooklyn who agree to be sterilized or receive long-term birth control.

The organization, Children Requiring a Caring Kommunity, or Crack, provides $200 cash payments to people in Brooklyn and elsewhere in the country who can provide written proof that they have had the sterilization procedure done.
