Jim Fassel says he wants to coach the Oakland Raiders. I think he should hold off on that before he hears my take. To make it work, Mr. Davis, the Manager of the General Partner of the Raiders, needs to really give the head coach power to be...head coach.

Al Davis, Jim Fassel, and The Oakland Raiders Need For A Head Coach

President-Elect Barack Obama On 60 Minutes
My take on President Elect Barack Obama's appearance on 60 miniutes Sunday. He and Michelle -- First Lady Elect -- performed very well. Well, performed is the wrong word, because they didn't seem to be putting on an act. They were honest and forthright. My only advice at this point is for Obama to tuck his suit in as he sits to do a YouTube presentation.
The un-Obamesque "Clinton as Secretary of State" Leak
Remember how little drama came from the Obama campaign? Almost no leaks, a tight ship unlike anything in politics previously? "Leave the speculation to somebody with a crystal ball: live in the present, and enjoy the way the Obama administration takes shape." Good advice from a political observer who's avoiding speculation on even WHY it leaked...

Star Trek Trailer Reveals Hit Star Trek Movie For J.J. Abrams
Well four days ago I had this music in a dream then in my head I could not figure out how it got there. It was sci-fi like and could either be in a horror movie or a sci-fi flim. Then I saw the second Star Trek trailer, and it was that music.
I kid you not.
The second Star Trek trailer reveals a movie that will be a sure-fire hit. J.J. Abrams, who directed the movie and co-produced it, and his staff aimed for a mix of realism and Star Trek and hit it right on the money.
I do hope we can see William Shatner in it, but I understand why he made this difficult -- he'll be sorry. But I hope he's in it with Leonard Nimoy.

Si Port's Jing Hua Wu Who Shot Three Co-Workers, To Be Arraigned Wednesday
In what has to be the most unfortunate case of temporary insanity, Jing Hua Wu, who went berserk and shot three co-workers at the radio chip maker Si Port, is going to be arraigned in San Jose this Wednesday.
I certainly hope this is the only case of it's kind for a long as there's a poor economy. Wu killed his fellow employees, Marilyn Lewis, 67, of San Jose, the company's head of human resources; Brian Pugh, 47, of Los Altos, vice president for operations; and Sid Agrawal, 56, of Fremont, the company's co-founder and chief executive, after he learned he was going to be fired.
I don't understand why this father of three would do that, but as TechCrunch' Michael Arrington put it , it's a sad day in Silicon Valley.

Prince Was Pro-Prop 8 - Rocker Turning Christian Conservative
In what has to be the shocker news item of the day, Gawker reports the famous Rocker Prince has said he's against homosexuality. He's reported to have said this:
When asked about his perspective on social issues—gay marriage, abortion—Prince tapped his Bible and said, “God came to earth and saw people sticking it wherever and doing it with whatever, and he just cleared it all out. He was, like, ‘Enough.’
Funny, because a number of people thought Prince was Gay; not me. But I'm just saying. Still Prince seems to fall in line with the majority of voting African Americans in California who supported Prop 8. I write that because Prince did not say how he voted on Prop 8.
