Daredevil Evel Knievel dies at 69

CLEARWATER, Fla. (AP) - Evel Knievel, the red-white-and-blue-spangled motorcycle daredevil whose jumps over crazy obstacles including Greyhound buses, live sharks and Idaho's Snake River Canyon made him an international icon in the 1970s, died Friday. He was 69.

Romo, Westbrook propel Lavinius to 153.1-102.2 romp over Cooch's hapless squad

The rematch carried far less fanfare than the initial battle. With Cooch basically throwing in the towel on his season following Ronald Brown's season-ending injury, and Shawn Alexandra's feminine tendencies on the football field, Lavinius was a heavy favorite heading into the rematch.

Further hindering the pride of Lisbon Falls was his decision to trade top fantasy QB and mancrush Tony Romo to Lavinius for highly-skilled white WR Wes Welker. With the trade, he guaranteed that Lavinius would pretty much be stacked across the board at every position on his fantasy squad. QB had been a weakness thanks to broken ribage by Marc Bulger. But with Bulger's ribs now healed, Lavinius is armed with essentially two Pro Bowl QBs.

The results of this rematch were grotesque for the Cooch supporters, but symphonic to Lavinius supporters. Quite eloquently, Lavinius waxed that ass.
