Spring Practice started today, and guessing by the weather forecast they will be in Hulluba Hall this week practicing. So much for me trying to sneak by one of the practices this week to snap a picture or two and heckle Jay Paterno....

But anyway; let's get to what we should be concerned about.

Tyrell Sales, a Penn State football player from Butler, was arrested following a St. Patrick's Day celebration disturbance at a Station Square nightspot.

Sales, 22, a starting outside linebacker, was charged with defiant trespass and disorderly conduct for the incident that Pittsburgh Police said occurred about 8:15 p.m. Saturday at Margarita Mama's. The city's St. Patrick's Day Parade was held earlier in the day.

That should be 2 fulmer cup points if I remember the rules correctly; charges should stack 1 for the trespass and one for the conduct.

Success with honor

Despite probably not being the starter , because Clark waited his turn -- the whole bit, Devlin says he isn't about to transfer......

Aside from the 6 a.m. workout sessions, the redshirt sophomore quarterback often throws the ball around with a few teammates when classes are done for the day. As spring practices loom, Devlin said he feels good about his arm and his current status.

Competing for the starting quarterback position is Devlin's focus, and it won't change if Pryor decides to play for Penn State. And despite Clark being next in line for the starting position, Devlin said he has not thought about transferring.

"He has a chance to do some special things," Lichtenfels said about Devlin. "I personally think he was a better high school quarterback than Morelli was. I expect Pat to maybe be one of the best quarterbacks Penn State has had since Kerry Collins. He's got that type of potential."

STATE COLLEGE — Penn State tight end Andrew Quarless was charged Thursday with DUI after State College police say he was stopped early Sunday while driving with a blood alcohol level of .084 percent.

Quarless had been suspended from the team earlier this week for an unspecified violation of team rules.

Quarless, 19, of Uniondale, N.Y., was stopped at 2:54 a.m. Sunday at the intersection of East College Avenue and South Pugh Street when police said he ran a red light in a white BMW, according to the criminal complaint filed Thursday at the office of District Judge Jonathan Grine.

“Did I go through the red light?” police say Quarless asked the officer.

The complaint said the officer smelled a moderate odor of alcohol on Quarless and that the tight end failed field sobriety tests.

A blood test taken about a half hour later showed Quarless had a .084 BAC, the complaint states.

Quarless is charged with DUI, DUI as a minor, failing to obey traffic control signals and underage drinking.

It's 20 degrees in Nome Alaska and the teams are on there way into Rainy Pass as DeeDee Jonrowe is leading at this stage of the game, as the top 30 finishers will be trying to reach Nome to get their share of the $875,000 purse.

It's hands down one of the most bad-ass sports in sports, and for those that don't want to view it as a sport....too bad. It's dog-sled racing in farking Alaska; it gets darn cold in Alaska.

And if anyone says that it's cruel and the dogs don't like it; you are so full of it. Those dogs love that stuff; as soon as they know its time to go out and run in the snow, they get all sorts of amped up. It's like throwing a retard in a Chuck-E-Cheese

Let's hope some Huskies rip that snow up, and no one gets hurt
