I was busy Thursday — and didn’t get to blog about this. And it’s probably a good thing. Last night, I had this weird dream the third hour of Today was being replaced with Who Wants To Be A Millionaire as Meredith Vieira was coming over from ABC. Seriously, I trust you’re aware as Today …

USA Today: Katie Couric Anchoring CBS Evening News “All But Certain”
OK, folks, barring a retraction from McPaper, now you may begin the speculation game… http://www.usatoday.com/life/people/2006-04-04-couric_x.htm?POE=LIFISVA …FWIW, if indeed Katie leaves, I think they’d be wise to promote within (read: Ann Curry, Natalie Morales or the recently married Campbell Brown). Further, should this all comes to fruition, how much ya wanna bet Katie will be disciplined …

Chickening Out Again?
Stop me if you’re heard this before. The Today Show on NBC once again gave free air time to Fox’s American Idol. This morning, an interview with Kevin Covais — followed by a brief performance from the kid they call “Chicken Little”, because of his resemblance to the Disney character. Again I ask — why? …
Dealing Online
To help get me in the Friday mood, I played the Deal or No Deal game on NBC.com. I picked case #23, in honor of the fact I popped the question to Cindy two years ago yesterday (March 23). The result… …she just asked if I was entitled to 10% of this payoff. No, I …

“Today” Going Back To The Future? Doubt It
Will she or won’t she be the next anchor of the CBS Evening News? Only Katie Couric knows for sure. My take: I’ll believe it when I see it. But this nonsense… http://www.broadcastingcable.com/article/CA6310992.html?display=Breaking …I don’t buy for a minute. For starters, this “industry leader” either didn’t watch or completely forgot the ABC News 20/20 interview …

Someone Missed A Memo (or didn’t bother to read it)
An oops award is on its way to Fox Sports Radio for airing this liner voiced by sportscaster James Brown… “Hi, I’m James Brown – and you’re listening to The Drive on Fox with Chris Myers and Brian Cox.†…such a liner was useless for two reasons… 1. Chris and Brian were both away on …

‘Cause It’s Root, Root, Root For The Home Team
Cindy e-mailed me noting we have a couple to cheer for when The Amazing Race 9 starts… http://www.cbs.com/primetime/amazing_race9/bios/lake_michelle/ …I think we can bury the hatchet over “find the Southern colonel†from TAR8, a.k.a. the family edition.
And Another Baby Makes Five
Please join me in congratulating Steve Taylor and his wife, Susan — proud parents of their third child, Emerson Lola, who entered the world earlier this morning. With regard to the rumor about their other two children, the answer’s no. They’re not renaming Shelby Grace and Walker Brooks as “Lake” and “Palmer”, respectively. (Only kidding!) …
