OK, NOW It's Wednesday.

Sad to read the news this morning about last night's tragic and devastating news... "Lane Kiffin Quits Vols To Take USC Job"

Just what the heck is going on in Knoxville? Lane Kiffin leaving after only 1 season to coach the Trojans? I keep reading where Vols fans are mourning- they're not mourning- they're pissed off.

Mark Bradley with the Atlanta Constitution Journal writes: "This is what you get when you entrust your program to a brat. He hits town talking big, and he leaves you in a Big Orange lurch. Ten years from now — heck, 10 minutes from now — we’ll be looking on Lane Kiffin’s season in K-Town and saying, “What the heck was that?” Called Urban Meyer a cheat, choppered down on Georgia high school stadiums, smirked at every abrogation of NCAA bylaws and then … poof, he’s gone. Like Keyser Soze. Gone so fast you wonder, “Was he here at all?” "

what a day!

here's some other stuff going on this morning

HE MADE IT DISAPPEAR!! - Federal prosecutors closed a two-year rape investigation of magician David Copperfield on Tuesday without filing charges, and police in nearby Bellevue say his accuser made a false sexual assault claim against another man last month.

THAT CLOSE! -A mystery object from space is about to whizz close by Earth on Wednesday. It won't hit our planet, but scientists are stumped by what exactly it is. Astronomers say it may be space junk or it could be a tiny asteroid, too small to cause damage even if it hit. It's 33 to 50 feet wide at most. NASA says that on Wednesday at 7:47 a.m. EST, it will streak by, missing Earth by about 80,000 miles.

HERE WE GO AGAIN - DC Comics has announced that they will be reuniting the popular JLI line-up in a 26 issue bi-weekly series titled "Justice League: Generation Lost," written by Keith Giffen and Judd Winick.
