9:00 PM Jim Haslett, coach of the UFL runner-up Florida Tuskers, admits he's been contacted about an NFL job. Meanwhile, Jim Fassel, coach of the UFL champion Las Vegas Locomotives, says he's happy where he's at: "I don't want to go there (to the NFL) and be miserable and lose."

8:42 PM If Mark Sanchez can wolf down a hot dog on the sidelines, then surely JaMarcus Russell can enjoy a bag of Skittles stuffed into his pants.

8:22 PM Andy Murray appears to be on the market again, as the British tennis star has reportedly broken up with Kim Sears, his girlfriend of the past four years.

8:03 PM The Daily Mail reports that Eddie "The Eagle" Edwards, who made a name for himself at the 1988 Calgary Olympics as one of the world's worst ski jumpers, has been invited to carry the torch through Winnipeg on it's way to the Vancouver Games.

Vilma’s Velcome To Talk Trade - Except With Pats

Posted by jason on Feb. 25, 2008, 4:57pm

The BOSTON GLOBE reports that the New York Jets are allowing Jonathan Vilma to test the trading waters, and the linebacker is free to chat with other teams - except the Patriots.

Two sources close to Vilma say the Jets will let Jonathan “shop his services” to the 30 other NFL franchises, but not to the guys in New England. Apparently the Jets are still a bit miffed about that whole Spygate thing at the beginning of the season.

Nice to see some actual anger & rivalry reappear in the placid No Fun League.

But if Jonathan does end up elsewhere, hopefully he’ll land with the same squad that takes Darren McFadden in the draft. Then the duo can team up for the ultimate Halloween costume:

Fred & Vilma Flinstone.
