Coming soon to Sprint: the Apple iPhone.

When it comes to the battle of cell phone carriers, there’s on thing that’s made all the difference:  the Apple iPhone.  AT&T’s subscriber base went through the roof while AT&T had the exclusive iPhone rights for three years (despite being terrible), and when Verizon finally got the iPhone, it was a huge deal.  Enter Sprint, the other major carrier that didn’t have the iPhone.  That’s about to change.  Sprint will be adding the iPhone to its line of phones, according to rumors.

Perhaps more importantly, when Verizon and AT&T get the iPhone 5, Sprint will be getting the iPhone 5, too.  Sprint, as the nation’s third-largest carrier, has been waiting for something like this to happen, and now Apple is being more forthcoming with the iPhone love.  The rumor of the additional iPhone pushed Sprint’s stock prices 10 percent higher, and it’s not even been officially announced yet!

Speaking of not officially announced, the iPhone 5 hasn’t been announced yet, either.  Conventional wisdom was that it would get a summer launch, but now it appears that Apple is preparing to wait for the iPhone 5 until September or October at the latest.  Probably more problems with getting the iPhone to be the right shade of white.

I’ve never had a problem eating food from a gas station.  Just two weeks ago, I ate a couple of hot dogs purchased from a gas station.  They were delicious.  That’s not the first time I’ve eaten gas station food, and I doubt it will be the last.  There’s nothing like a fun food novelty. […]

Commissioner Roger Goodell gathered 32 NFL owners for one big question.  One of the league’s most wanderlust-stricken franchises is looking to move again.  The Oakland-Los Angeles-Oakland Raiders, tired of gutting it out in a run-down stadium, were once again looking for greener pastures.  Only the Miami Dolphins refused to cooperate.  With a vote of 31-1, […]

In 2006, an injury to Dallas Cowboys starting quarterback Drew Bledsoe opened the door for an undrafted free agent by the name of Tony Romo to take the helm of America’s Team and lead the Dallas Cowboys to an early playoff exit.  Bledsoe went from starter to afterthought in a season.  Now, the circle continues […]

For 89 years, Oscars has never had a major mistake.  The last few Oscars might have had a few flubs, but at least they never got the most important category of the night wrong.  Well, that’s now changed, all thanks to OG Bonnie and Clyde legends Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway.  When Faye Dunaway called […]

Tom Brady has been wildly successful, if controversial.  He’s the first quarterback ever to win five Super Bowls and only the second player to do so after Charles Haley.  Unlike Haley, Brady won all his Super Bowls with the same team, the New England Patriots.  The only thing that seems to be able to stop […]

Ben Affleck, no matter what you might think of him, is a talented actor and director.  He’s got the goods, but he’s smart enough to know when he’s in over his head.  All along, since he took on the mantle of Batman, he’s had his eyes on writing, directing, and starring as the Caped Crusader. […]

In May, students for the for-profit American College of Education were running into some problems.  Their access to email accounts and course information was locked down by Google, who had disabled their accounts.  The reason why?  A fired IT worker for the American College of Education locked the school out of their Google cloud account.
