...probability. Patrons at Shenanigans, the bar owned by legendary Packer guard Fuzzy Thurston, get misty-eyed talking about the play Favre made on Dec. 8 against the Denver Broncos: with 23 seconds in the first half and the Pack up only 6-3 on the Denver 14, Favre stiff-armed onrushing All-Pro defensive tackle Michael Dean Perry, scanned the field for a receiver, made eye contact with Antonio Freeman, then drilled the ball between two safeties for the TD that put the Broncos away.

...near cinematic display of favoritism--the top bank regulator chumming it up with someone he is supposed to regulate--reinforced Italy's nearly mythic status as Europe's most rigged economy. The scandal created a major crisis for the government of businessman Silvio Berlusconi, itself no paragon of arm's-length transactions. Yet even Berlusconi finally found enough moral high ground to call on Fazio to resign his lifetime post after Finance Minister Domenico Siniscalco quit in protest when his calls for Fazio to step down had no effect.
