The Nation Hates Arlington. The Morning News brings us a roundup of reaction from writers across the nation who were in town for the Super Bowl. Thank goodness everyone realizes the game was in Arlington. That’s where Cowboys Stadium was built. So they won’t have any negative feelings toward Dallas.
Michael Vick’s Key to City of Dallas Is a Gift to Columnists. Jacquielynn Floyd knows a good topic when she sees it. Seriously, Dwaine Caraway is the councilman who just keeps on giving.
Michael Young Is Not a Happy Camper. First we were told that the Rangers third-basemen-turned-DH wanted to be traded. Young says not so much. As in: “The suggestion that I’ve simply had a change of heart and asked for a trade is a manipulation of the truth. I want to be traded because I’ve been misled and manipulated, and I’m sick of it.” He’s not offering any specifics, though. (Side note: the new DMN site, oddly, doesn’t have bylines with some of its stories. No idea whom to credit for that scoop.)
DART Explains Its Failings. The president of the agency will today explain why it had such a hard time with the snow and ice last week. Perfect timing. Because we’re getting ready to do it all over again tomorrow.

Please tell me that Vick’s “event” also offered bottle service … preferably of Cactus Juice.
It helps to put it in perspective when you realize Dwaine Caraway gave Vick a Key to the City (Jail).
They may be displeased with Arlington, but they realize that the organizers are Dallas people…
I like Michael Young, and agree that he shouldn’t be happy being a DH. But if he feels that strongly about it, then he should void the rest of his contract ($16M a year for 3 years)and go see what he’s worth on the open market. It’s certainly not $16M year.
I understand that the Union would never let him do that, but he should save his outrage over this.
My ****zu suggested that if Vick has the key, we should change the lock
