We Chicks Love Our Gossip

Who needs the return of primetime dramas when the NFL is serving up more than Mary J.? We've got indicted quarterbacks, cheating coaches, and a messy divorce that just keeps getting messier! Oooh Wee!!! This NFL season promises to be better than Grey's Anatomy, Heroes, and The Hills combined! (Not that we watch The Hills or anything like that...)

Cheater, Cheater Goodell Meeter
Patriots Coach Bill Belichick emerged from his grimy, gray sweatshirt on Wednesday for a news conference where he apologized for the Patriots' videotape scandal. A team staffer got busted on Sunday with a camcorder on the Jets' sideline. Now the NFL is investigating whether the Patriots were taping the Jets' coaching signals.
During his news conference, Belichick confirmed that he's been in touch with NFL commissioner Roger Goodell concerning the scandal. But he never acknowledged whether his team is guilty of pulling a (insert Tonya Harding, Barry Bonds, the 1919 White Sox, "Dubya" and other infamous cheaters in history's name here.) He did however apologize for any distractions the scandal could be causing for his team, the league, and fans. Then, in true Belichick fashion, he refused to answer further questions on the investigation and pretended as if the throngs of hungry reporters before him really gave a crap about his take on the upcoming Chargers game.

Like Mike
It turns out some good will come out of Michael Strahan's nasty divorce battle after all: we get to pick through his stuff! Items belonging to the New York Giant and his wife are going up for auction. Place your bid on useless conversation pieces like a $1500 5-light candelabra or perhaps you can drop $150 on a stained and tattered Louis XV style wood marquise.
Earlier this year, a judge ordered Strahan to pay his wife more than $15 million dollars a.k.a more than half of what he's worth to uphold his prenup agreement. As a bonus, she'll also get hundreds of thousands of dollars in child support.
All proceeds from the Strahan Auction will benefit Michael's newly founded "You Raggedy B!tch" Foundation.

Get Real
Whitney and Bobby did it, as did Paula Abdul. Now, so will Deion Sanders. No, we're not talking about drugs silly! We're talking reality TV. The buzz is that Prime Time is returning to prime time as the star of his own show. He and his wife will star in their own Oxygen Channel series, Deion and Pilar Sanders: Prime Time Love. The show will air sometime in February, leaving more than enough time for all of us to stock up on barf bags.
