(Photo from goal.com) It appears that Ronaldinho's house was mysteriously robbed this past Monday night

Lots of things to go through.

We start off with a very unfortunate situation for Ronaldinho. His house in Italy apparently was robbed:

Thieves broke into Ronaldinho's house and made off with thousands of dollars worth of goods but left behind the football star's Golden Ball trophy, Italian media reports said Wednesday.

Ronaldinho was at home in Brazil when the burglary took place early Tuesday morning, Corriere della Sera reported. Four thieves stole mainly jewelry and watches, Corriere reported.

Even more bizarre is the fact that this same house that Ronaldinho currently lives in has been broken in previously two times by former owners. Weird and unfortunate indeed.

Charles Weis guarantees that questions about his job will be placed on hold until next season, as Notre Dame finally ends their 15 year bowl drought by beating Hawaii 49-21.

Why search Plaxico's Burress home for guns if the gun was licensed in New Jersey? What a dumb situation that sadly will be dragged out all the way to the first quarter of 2009.

Heck, if I was Donovan McNabb, I would still decline to even talk about a contract. And reporters, stop asking him the same s(explicit) please.

Shouldn't DeAndre Jordan have stayed an extra year in school like Hasheem Thabeet did? And goodness, Kevin McHale, it is fitting that you are the coach of the Timberwolves. Because you deserve to coach a team where you decided to trade O.J. May for Kevin Love on draft night. Boy, that has worked out real well, hasn't it? And speaking of rookie bust as we near 40% of the season completed, has you even heard from Joe Alexander at all?

Why does every holiday have to have golf on the menu?

And in a story that will be looked at a little later this week, here's ESPN's best attempt to join the fray and muddy up Eric Holder. At least it's just doing some journalism instead of creating stupid outrage though.
