I liked

:lol2: :thumbsup:

Teenage girls often have babies fathered by men, didn't know there was an alternative, but that headline suggest so.

My favorite: "I FORGOTTI" - New York Times

When John Gotti beat up some guy and the guy was gunna charge him until he found out who he was. Then he got on the stand and said he couldnt remember who attacked him.

I love that headline lol "I FORGOTTI"

Pulled this one straight off of cnnsi.com's homepage...

"'Cocks QB among six facing theft charges"

found it mildly amusing

I saw an article once with a massive headline that proclaimed, word for word, "WMD'S FOUND IN IRAQ!"
The last sentence in the article was, word for word, "...to date, no such WMD's have been found."


wow, way to sensationalize. :disappoin


PS why am I not surprised that at least 2 of the headlines in the original post came from my local newspaper?

My local paper had a headline which made me laugh, so I sent it on to Jay Leno for his Headlines segment on his show. It read " Fight Breaks Out at Local Stop The Violence Rally"
