WHAT THEY MIGHT BE DOING TODAY ...

Tony Romo might be the modern day Brett Favre.

I-94 might be full of eager NDSU fans ready to party.

Mike Tice might be losing sleep over how to get his offensive line to keep QB Jay Cutler upright.

Lindsay Whalen was mentioned as a viable MVP candidate in the WNBA, but the Lynx guard finished a distant fifth in voting. Here were the top five and their vote totals:

1. Tamika Catchings, Fever (292)

2. Tina Charles, Sun (209)

3. Sylvia Fowles, Sky (148)

4. Sue Bird, Storm (106)
