6880: Are You Ready For Some Fútbol?

• Emilio and Gloria Estefan became minority owners of the Miami Dolphins, a move that some hope will spike fan interest among Latino audiences. Gloria is slated to perform a duet with Hank Williams of the iconic Monday Night Football theme song, “Are You Ready For Some Football?” Um, we’re not ready for that.

• Qantas canceled orders for 15 Boeing 787 planes, citing bad market conditions. Boeing will probably join the iconic koala bear in declaring hate for the airline.

• PETA and Angelica Huston convinced Sprint Nextel to stop using chimpanzees in its commercials. Wish the agreement included ending the use of monkey-boy Sprint CEO Dan Hesse.
