WHAT WE'VE FOUND: Concussions, bus crashes, Kate Gosselin, teabaggers, etc.

Jeffrey Billman here with your morning fix.

The Republican primary in Delaware is too close to call, as extremist candidate Christine O'Donnell — a serious (as in, Victorian) prude, and who the GOP state party leader has said “could not be elected dogcatcher” — has evened up the race. Chris Coons (and Democrats everywhere) thank you, teabaggers.

Four people, including one Temple student, are killed in a Megabus accident en route to Toronto, when the driver made a wrong turn and the top deck slammed into a railroad bridge.

Dear Pennsylvania, please make Kate Gosselin go away once and for all.

That Oswalt trade is looking pretty good for the Phils. The Eagles lost, and to make matters worse, QB Kevin Kolb and LB Stewart Bradley went out — then came back, then went out again — with concussions.

A woman is found dead in an, um, illegal massage parlor in Center City. Cops are suspicious.

Looks like we're back to kids killing each other for sneakers. Wonderful.

My co-workers and I were talking about the Eagles/Concussion debacle a great deal yesterday and we came to a few conclusions.



1) Television cameras can, of course, see a great deal more of what's going on after a play than the sports medicine team. It's possible they didn't see the concussed players and their obvious symptoms. 



2) We are all glad that we do not do our jobs on national television. 



That is all.
