George W. Bush’s memoir “Decision Points” will be out November 9. The former President says it will be not so much an autobiography as a recounting of the difficult decisions he has had to make in his life. Chapter one presumably is titled -“Paper or Plastic?”

The San Francisco Giants are now five for 55 for their last chances with men in scoring position. And four of those five didn’t get out of the infield. Jeez. Some of these early round American Idol rejects have better chances of getting hits.

While the Big Ten is considering expansion to as many as 14 teams, Penn State coach Joe Paterno says he thinks the Pac 10 will expand first. And the Pac 10 could actually draw on a pool including UFL and CFL (Canadian Football League teams.) After all, with USC they’re used to working with paid players.

But we probably shouldn’t worry; if they can pick up broadcasts of “Dancing with the Stars,” “The Marriage Ref” and “Kate Plus 8” they will almost certainly bypass Earth on the grounds of there being no intelligent life on THIS planet.
