• Pro golfer Fred Funk got tons of publicity this weekend for wearing a pink flowered skirt for the third hole of the Skins Game, his penalty for being outdriven by Annika Sorenstam.
Meanwhile, John Daly is upset about the lack of coverage he got for appearing at his local putt-putt golf course wearing nothing but a thong.

How good are things going for the 'Stones? Darko is hitting his shots at a better clip (44 percent) than MSU's kickers hit field goals this season (31 percent).
• You know, in lieu of a bowl game, the MSU football team could have just showed up at Ford Field this weekend and started playing in the high school football state championships being held there.

If you're going to be a broadcaster, at least come up with some original material. Like how Adam Morrison is trying to pass off a 13-year-old's mustache as his own.
