- Pax tale is true fish out of water
- November 15, 2003
- Sisterhood is powerful — even under the sea. That’s the muddled message of the decidedly odd TV movie “Mermaids” (8 p.m. today, Pax). A botched combination of “Splash” and “Charlie’s Angels,” this fish tale begins as some ornery anglers use dynamite to bring home their chicken of the sea. These callous bad guys wind up killing a male mermaid (or merman, for you landlubbers), the father of one tough mermaid, Diana (Erika Heynatz). He’s no relation to Ethel Merman, by the way.

A few were about quarterback Jason White’s strengthening Heisman Trophy campaign. Others sought to prod Stoops into naming a specific weakness on his team (he couldn’t).

- November 15, 2003
- Going it alone is never easy. So it’s hard to blame Notre Dame for making another round of inquiries about tying its future to this conference or that.

It didn’t matter. Francis’ latest jackpot signee — Jessica Kilpatrick —picked up the slack.
