What's been missing from the Focker family saga?
For the Minnesota Vikings, a Monday night matchup against the Green Bay Packers is about as big as a regular season game gets. “All you’ve got to do around here is say Packer week, and everybody gets excited,” cornerback Antoine Winfield said. When they’re playing for first place in the NFC North at the quarter mark on the schedule, well, the intensity will only increase. When Brett Favre happens to be the Vikings’ new quarterback, the public interest in this rivalry is on the verge of explosion. This may be the best rated game all season long, maybe except for the game that Favre returns to Green Bay.

How was your Maple Leaf Parade experience? For the 1st time since I cam to the La Crosse area in 2000, I took in the parade from the street. AWESOME! is the best word I can use to describe it.

Movie fans lined up for a second helping of "Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs," which took in $24.6 million to remain No. 1 at the box office for a second straight weekend. The Sony animated tale raised its domestic haul to $60 million after 10 days in theaters, according to studio estimates Sunday. "Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs" fended off Bruce Willis' action thriller "Surrogates," a Disney release that debuted at No. 2 with $15 million. Opening in third place with $10 million was MGM's "Fame," a new take on the 1980s music and dance hit about students at a school for performing arts.

That sales figure should easily place it ahead of the competition when the Billboard 200 chart for the period ended September 27 is published on Wednesday. The new album -- Pearl Jam's first not with a major label -- is sold exclusively in the United States through Target, iTunes, Pearl Jam's Web site and independent retailers.

Oregon alum Tony Seminary is well aware of the protocol: Travel, cheer, take what comes. But what came was so bad, Seminary decided to fire off a pointed e-mail to Kelly, anyway, complete with an invoice from his IT company, even though he never expected a response: I was so angry with the game (even before the post-game melee) I am sending you an invoice for my trip to Boise. The product on the field Thursday night is not something I was at all proud of, and I feel as though I’m entitled to my money back for the trip. Please see my invoice attached in this email. I will happily send along receipts if need be. You will be surprised by the coach's response. Click on the pic for more.

President Barack Obama sat down with late night TV talk show host David Letterman on Monday, wrapping up a blitz of television appearances as he tries to build support for his top domestic priority, an ambitious health care overhaul plan. Obama, America's first black president, also had his most irreverent answer yet on the question of whether some of the reaction to his health care plan is driven at least partly by racism. "Was Jimmy Carter onto something ... was this unease or poor decorum rooted in racism, or is that just something to talk about?" Letterman asked. "First of all, I think it's important to realize that I was actually black before the election," Obama said to huge laughs from Letterman and the audience. See it by clicking on the pic.

OK, did someone start up another one of those vote for the worst sites online, cause I got a huge beef with America on this one. Kevin Skinner, a chicken farmer from Mayfield KY, was announced as the winner of Americas got Talent last night and my jaw dropped in amazement as he continued to stay in the competition each week. I have no problem with the chicken farming part and I like the guy as a story...BUT DON'T YOU HAVE TO HAVE TALENT to win a TALENT contest? Now I realize that Opera is not exactly everyones idea of a good time, but cancer survivor Barbara Padilla (runner up) was an amazing talent at her craft. Skinner could barely cover Willie Nelson.
