Stupid Alibi of the Day

Debbie Bendorf of Louisville is accused of purchasing lottery tickets with someone else's credit card. Her alibi? Someone else purchased the tickets and just gave her a credit card number, not the card itself. "Gee judge, I'm not a thief, I'm just real stupid!"

I wish I had known I could make purchases that way, just carrying my card number around instead of actually showing the card itself. Maybe someday the stores will get real tough and even ask for ID....

I'll bet Judge Ashford wishes he didn't have to recuse himself from this case...

Get Ready for a Whole Slew of Lawrence Phillips Types...

Well, I think we are now learning what kind of a coach Callahan will be. Seems that Le Kevin Smith is going to play on Saturday despite his recent assault of a UNL parking cadet. We're not privy to the discipline being imposed on Le Kevin, but we're assured it's "appropriate."

Seems that Bill isn't really interested in keeping players out of the game regardless of their behavior. While he was the coach of the Oakland Raiders, he let Sabastian Janikowski play after getting pulled over with a BAL of .20. http://www.sports-smack.com/columns2002/stupid.htm. Janikowski had a history of run-ins with the law at that time, including a few involving the date-rape drug GHB and a few involving fights. http://www.cracksmoker.com/NFL/NFL%20JanikowskiS.htm. But hey, he was a great kicker. They needed him on the field, right?

I guess we'll see how Le Kevin turns out, but hopefully someone will keep an eye on these issues....
