Friday groaners…
Times are tough all over. The city of Amsterdam has decided that licensed prostitutes must start paying taxes based on the number of clients they have each day. I guess they’re calling it a pole tax?

John Boehner, the most orange man in America, has said in an interview that he has “never been in a tanning bed or used a tanning product.” Could it be he just doesn’t want to admit he is stupid enough to spend that much time in the sun? Who knows? This appears to be one of those “Don’t Bask, Don’t Tell” situations.

Texas A & M was routed 41 to 24 today by LSU in the Cotton Bowl, in a game that wasn’t that close. Is it a rule that teams from Texas have to suck in Cowboys Stadium?

Basketball star Enes Kanter, 18, was declared permanently ineligible to play in college by the NCAA, for receiving over $30,000 in benefits while playing for a Turkish team. No doubt this will be a lesson to other talented young men who choose to play abroad – “Just pay my dad, okay?”

The NFL is debuting a new overtime rule for the postseason. (Basically, you can’t win on the first possession of OT by kicking a field goal, the other team must then have possession at least once.) Fortunately the Redskins and Donovan McNabb are nowhere near the playoffs.

After knocking off the Los Angeles Rams of St. Louis, the Seattle Seahawks host New Orleans in a Wild Card playoff. When asked if the Seahawks should apologize for their record, one of the players said emphatically, “Hell no!” It should be noted, however, he was wearing a brown paper bag over his helmet.
