Recent Goos
These goos were played a week ago.

Smith played for the New England Patriots before relocating to the United Kingdom, where he became a player and later the head coach of the Manchester Spartans to considerable success. In 2008, he bought a local TV station in his native North Carolina and had it produce only positive news broadcasts to fill its roughly 15 hours per day of airtime.

Lou Gehrig
Gehrig set a number of records in his career with the New York Yankees starting in 1923, including 2130 consecutive games.

He retired and gave a speech calling himself "the luckiest man on the face of the earth," and passed two years later. ALS is now often called Lou Gehrig's Disease. Go »
Margaret Gilleo
In 1990, Gilleo put up a yard sign objecting to military action in the Persian Gulf. The city removed them, citing ordinances about visual clutter. She filed suit in federal court, arguing that her right to free speech was violated, and ultimately prevailed at the U.S. Supreme Court in 1994. Go »
