So, have you heard about Tim Tebow's Wonderlic score?It was 22.That makes him A) dumber than Jimmy Clausen; B) dumber than an Adirondack chair; or C) neither of the above, because the Wonderlic is about as accurate a predictor of NFL success as the SAT is of academic success in college.The answer: C.

... is all about when Tiger Woods will return to competitive golf.The Associated Press says one thing. The New York Post says another thing. Woods' buddy Mark O'Meara says yet another thing.My guess: Tiger comes back at the Masters.

A moment of silence, please, to honor the passing of Merlin Olsen, who went from Utah State to the Fearsome Foursome to Canton and then to Walnut Grove, where he kept Charles Ingalls from getting his butt kicked by drunken thugs from Sleepy Eye ... well, too many times to count.

So this is the end result of NASCAR's attempt to artificially inject old-school rowdiness into its product: Carl Edwards sending Brad Keselowski roof-first into the retaining wall at Atlanta Sunday.While he was, um, 153 laps down.And after he'd intentionally returned to the track for the expressed purpose of wrecking Keselowski.

Everyone else has weighed in on this, so I guess it's my turn.What are the Chicago Bears thinking.

My gut generally doesn't lead me astray, although it does occasionally lead me through a drive-thru. And my gut tells me Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger is in a heap o' trouble.In case you missed it, Roethlisberger is the subject of a sexual assault complaint by a 20-year-old college student, stemming from an incident in a Milledgeville, Ga., nightclub Friday night

... or, "Punchin' Brittney," as the case may be.

Or, more accurately, "Today's Elin Update."

I love this time of year in the NFL. I am, after all, a huge fan of silliness, and very few things in this world are sillier than the way the NFL and its attendant gurus analyze players for the upcoming draft.

I think they just called icing in hell. I actually agree with ESPN talking doofus Colin Cowherd about something.

And now for today's Winter Olympics Update, which has been missing for the last couple of days on account of, well, other stuff ...* So now it's on: Canada and the U.S. for hockey gold on Canadian soil. And I have to say, history favors both teams.

Depressing news out of West Lafayette today.Gold and Black Illustrated is reporting that Purdue forward Robbie Hummel has suffered a torn ACL in his right knee. Which means he's likely done for the year.

And now today's Winter Olympics Update, in which I risk the wrath of the flag-wavers by injecting a dose of reality into the proceedings ...

And now for today's Winter Olympics Update, in which I continue to go on and on about the travesty that was was Sunday night's coverage ...I'd let this go, gladly. But yesterday someone said something that frankly appalled me, mainly because it came from someone who should know better.

So it appears we've been wrong all along about the IRL. Apparently it doesn't stand for Indy Racing League after all.It stands for I'd Rather Leave.Remember, oh, just a year ago, when young Graham Rahal was being put forth (mea culpa: by me as well as others) as one of the fresh homegrown faces that would rescue open-wheel racing in America from irrelevance.

And you thought they talked smack on the playground.
