Quote of the Day
“These decisions are never easy, nor are they something I take lightly — especially when you consider the number of people they impact. We are clearly not where we expect to be, however, and we need new vision. Doing nothing in the name of continuity was not a risk I was willing to take. Our fans have stood strong through so many ups and downs and close games. They deserve more. Frankly, they’ve earned more.”
Chargers owner Dean Spanos, after firing his coach/GM Friday

Saturday’s quiz
Which current NBA franchise used to be the Seattle SuperSonics?

Friday’s quiz
NFC East is the only division in the NFL where all four teams have won a Super Bowl.

Thursday’s quiz
Beverly D’Angelo played Mrs Griswold (Chevy Chase’s wife) in the Vacation movies.
