Kassim Osgood

I read these player's notes on Kassim Osgood, WR in the NFL. It is nuts:

WR Kassim Osgood jumped from a second-story window to escape an armed man who attacked him and struck him in the head with a pistol, while also striking the 19-year-old woman Osgood was reportedly visiting on Monday, according to the Florida Times-Union. The intruder left Osgood with minor bumps and bruises, according to the report. Coach Jack Del Rio said "He's fine. I'm aware of it. I really can't comment on that whole deal. He's doing OK."

So should I play him or not?

Gabourey Sidibe on the cover of Elle Magazine as a Whiter person

People applauded Elle Magazine about placing Gabourey Sidibe on the cover of their magazine. She is neither svelte nor white, which has been the tradition of most fashion magazine cover women.

However, once released, it seems the photoartists at Elle decided to, uh, lighten Gabourey up!

I'm all for photo treatments, everyone knows this happens all the time on Oprah's magazine (where she graces EVERY cover).

But how far are you willing to go to sell magazines?

Elle Magazine's response, ""Nothing out of the ordinary was done. We have four separate covers this month and Gabby's cover was not retouched any more or less than the others. We had 25 cover-worthy subjects in our portfolio and we chose Gabby because of who she is. We shot this as a story of exuberant young women changing the world. If you take a look at the portfolio, each of the women were shot in different ways and for different reasons."

Uhh yea
