...week of the NFL's regular season? At the start of their 4 p.m. ET home game against the Packers, the Jets weren't sure a win would even get them into the playoffs. Three hours later, they were AFC East champs with a postseason home game. And with Gang Green playing its best ball the only time it matters - at the end - it's been hard to find a free seat on the bandwagon.

Posh Spice, now - that's like stealing someone's Enron stock. Even weirder were the public debates. Last year we were arguing about cloning and stem-cell research. This year, we pretended to argue about things we agreed upon long...
...husband William Ray Vance. In 1994, membership in the tiny tribe dwindled from three adults to one when Martin's two brothers were killed during separate street shootings in Banning, Calif. Police said both men were involved in drug deals and were members of a violent Los Angeles street gang...
