Now that were winding down into the year 2008. I thought it would be cool to make a thread dedicated to all the memorable things that happened in the news this year. So without further ado..

'Senator Larry Craig' tops my list of newsmakers this year, with his bathroom-foot tapping antics! His interviews with Matt Lauer made for some of the funniest latenight sketches and jokes this years. LOL!

Red Sox being generally awesome. Patriots being just as awesome.

Britney Spears; from her baby/divorce drama to her weight gain/Mtv performance.

Who would have though she would have ended up like this, just a few years ago....

How? Did Vick go to Virgina Tech? Was the crazy dude also involved in dog fighting?

she never attained the level of fame they had granted her in death , kind of ironic.
