Josh Q. Public:  The difference between a successful person and others is not a lack of strength, not a lack of knowledge, but rather in a lack of will.  -Vince Lombardi

Public Knowledge:

1.  Tamerlane Lincoln Kennedy.  You remember him.  Lincoln Kennedy of the Oakland Raiders?  Offensive tackle.  Part of the 12-0 National Champion Washington Huskies in 1991.  Two time Pro Bowler.  The Oval Office.  Retired in 2004.  Well, he’s baaack.  Playing for the Dallas Desparados of the Arena Football League.  Must have run out of money.  Right?

2.  So Juan Marichal wants Big Mac in the Hall?  Isn’t he that cat?  Isn’t he that cat who did it like this, did it like that, did it with a baseball bat.  Did it with a baseball bat to John Roseboro?  Smashed John Roseboro in the head two times with said baseball bat.  Get the papers, get the papers.  He’s lucky he’s in the Hall. 

3.  Is there any stopping this Suns Juggernaut?  Not tonight. Not the Knicks.  Shooting the lights out.  The Suns made 61 percent of their shots against the Wiz(48 for 79), their highest in any game in over seven years.   However, 20 of Phoenix’s 31 misses came on 3-point attempts.  On two-point shots, the Suns went 35 for 46, 76 percent. That was the second-highest field-goal percentage in NBA history on two-point shots. On March 13, 1998, the Clippers made 52 of 66 two-pointers, 79 percent.  Goodness!

4.  The Ohio State University is number six on the charts.  Number one in our hearts.  The Gigantic-O is starting to dominate.  One handed.  Wait till tournament time. Is that the team you want to face then?

5.  Bernie Baseball wants one more year in the Bronx.  Good luck with that.

6.  The NFL and its players union have agreed to more extensive testing for performance-enhancing drugs and have added the blood-boosting substance EPO to the league’s list of banned substances.  Things could get interesting here.  I have to believe there are a ton of NFL players on the juice.  How cool was the Jeremy Shockey helmetless play?  Walkie Talkie Shockey.  He walks the walk.  He talks the talk.  If you’re a Giant fan, how can you not love that guy?  But it got me thinking.  It got me thinking, when people start acting crazy like that out there, I’d give ‘em a steroid test right on the spot.  Merriman busts through the line and busts out the Lights Out dance.  Steroid test.  Reggie Bush goes…all…the way…and points at defenders before doing a summersault in the end zone, steroid test.  Drayton Florence Henderson head butts an opposing player, steroid test.  On the spot.  Every time.

7.   Michael Vick will not be traded and will be the Atlanta Falcons’ starting quarterback in 2007, the team’s ownership said.  We’ll see. I never bought into Ron Mexico’s game.  Exciting?  Sure.  Game breaker?  At times.  Super Bowl Quarterback?  Never.  He’s no Mighty Vince Young, I’ll tell you that.  Mighty Vince, the Nashville Prince.  My new favorite non- Patriot.

8.  The arrest of Cincinnati Bengals cornerback Johnathan Joseph has members of the team Furious Five, embarrassed and concerned that guilt by association has ruined public perception of the team.  As well it should.  I’d cut this cat right now.  Stop the madness.  You have to start somewhere. 

9.  I wish I was a little bit taller.  I wish I was a baller.  I wish I had a girl who looked good, I would call her.  With a listed height of 6-foot, Allen Iverson became the shortest player in NBA history to score 20,000 points. That distinction had previously belonged to 6-2, We Are Marshall, Hal Greer.

10.  Is Rex Grossman the worst Super Bowl quarterback ever?  Vince Feragamo?  Trent Dilfer?  Champagne Tony Eason?  Billy Kilmer?  David Woodley?  Craig Morton?

Peace out homies.  Six Two and Even!
