dl004d: I'll argue that the Packers unique role as the smallest team in professional sports has made Green Bay more significant than Indianapolis.

Erica: Thanks!

Although in the final analysis, the City of Tampa is more significant than Indianapolis, it equally irks me that they have as many post-merger titles as the Chicago Bears and Baltimore Colts and more than the Cleveland Browns, Detriot Lions, and Minnesota Vikings.

Note, however, the sad-luck Browns bailed on their fans and the beloved Kosar (on Belichik's order) and Detriot and Minnesota shamefully went dome.

Didn't catch the Grammys, but I think it's more fitting that the Police did Roxanne rather than anything else. That was their first hit, if you'll remember.

Don't get me wrong, Synchronicity II is a great song, while Synchronicity is a great album (Ghosts in the Machine was their best, IMHO). However, they have to be able to go back to the beginning to get that fire back. And if you caught any of the highlights from the Whiskey-a-Go-Go gig, once they get their sea legs, they're going to rock as usual (and check out Stewart Copeland playing rock with the traditional grip!).

Hopefully we'll have an opportunity to see them on tour in the area. I just hope they don't do Don't Stand So Close To Me '86. You wonder why they broke up in the first place after bastardizing another one of their best works. Then again, Sting was a total sellout.
