...almost immediately. "All the details were taken care of," he says, "so I found myself with all this other energy to put into my skiing." Besides the amenities, Schlopy is grateful to be on a team again. He's particularly fond of competing with Bode Miller, 24, a skiing wild man from Franconia, N.H. The two shared a house in Innsbruck, Austria, this past winter and might even share the medal stand if Miller can just avoid crashing. "Bode's sort of all or nothing," says Schlopy.

...alderman. Scan the NFL's list of statistical league leaders, and you won't find many Bears. The closest thing this club has to stars is linebacker Brian Urlacher, 23, an NFL defensive rookie of the year last season; first-year running back Anthony Thomas, 23; and quarterback Jim Miller, 30.

...fewest points of any team in the NFL. It is one modeled on the Baltimore Ravens, last year's Super Bowl champions. If there's a weak spot on the team, it's the sometimes feeble offense, which also, alas, seems to be modeled on Baltimore's. Miller hasn't always put up enough points to stay in the game. In the Bears' two losses to Green Bay, the defense held the powerful Pack to a total of 37 points, but the offense could muster only 19. If they expect to get past the early rounds of the play-offs...

George Carlin is an insult comic. Forget Jerry Seinfeld’s observational humor: Did you ever notice that they call it Ovaltine when the jar is round? Carlin doesn’t care. Like Leary and Miller, Carlin makes a buck lashing out at all the stupid people in the world. Unfortunately, in his aptly-named latest album, Complaints and Grievances, he steps a little off course...
