QuoteDolphins DT Paul Soliai lost 12 members of his family in American Samoa after the recent tsunami.
The tsunami killed one aunt, an uncle and 10 of his wife's relatives. "It's been crazy, but it's mother nature," Soliai said. "You can't control it. I've been talking to some of my family members. They say there's so much damage, they're still finding so many bodies."

QuoteCincinnati Bengals wide receiver Chad OchoCinco loves breasts almost as much as he loves attention. That's why this weekend, when the NFL allows players to wear pink cleats to promote Breast Cancer Awareness Month, the player formerly known as Chad Johnson will take things a step further and match his all-pink cleats to pink gloves, pink wrist bands, a pink mouthpiece, and a pink tutu pink chin strap. On his Twitter account, 85 said that if the No Fun League fines him for wearing additional pink, they can suck two tough titties and he'll match the fine with a donation to a breast cancer charity. That's how you show awareness, you boobs!
