It has been 13 days since the last Morning Buzz page, and the only regret is that we were off duty for the Charles Barkley DUI. Wine coolers, bear claws and an attractive woman in the car, and we missed it? Stupid holiday breaks!
What else did we miss? 49ers promote Jed York to president. Nice Christmas gift. But he'll probably just break it in six months and ask Santa for another one.
Ratings rise for NHL Winter Classic. If they called it the Ice Cream Bowl, it would be the best bowl game on New Year's Day.
MLB Network makes debut. Because that Tampa Bay/Philadelphia World Series wasn't boring enough the first time.
Sharks sign Claude Lemieux, 43. Is slashing with one's cane a minor penalty or a game misconduct?
Cal wins Emerald Bowl. They said Miami wasn't the program it used to be, but with five suspensions, the Hurricanes are on their way back.
Cal creeps to edge of hoops rankings. Forget whether they make the NCAA tournament. Will Mike Montgomery's team win more games than the Warriors?
Chargers win home playoff game. And NBC sets an unbreakable record for close-up, chest-up shots of cheerleaders.
Giants sign Randy Johnson. We yield the floor to reader Shomit Ghose, "I just read in the Merc that the oldest man in the U.S. died today at age 112. My question is, who are the Giants going to sign to replace him?"
