CNN REPORTING DIRTY BOMB THREATS AT 7 NFL GAMES THIS WEEKEND

CNN

[JFC]

That McCatherty is a lib jerk... I can not stand to watch cnn and people like that biased lib make me more determined to not watch their dumb channel.

[dinoparty]

Seahawks will go down with Atlanta and San Diego as hapless one-time Super Bowl also-rans.

[hsmomx3]

But the Stillers sure looked good this past Sunday.

I should know, I'm a Vikings fan.

Charles Bishop (Bishra), you know the "harmless" Tampa teen who stole a plane and "accidently" deliberately crashed it into a bank, also made a terrorist threat against the Super Bowl.

It was ignored by the media (I don't even think the suicide not was released to the public until after the game):

Here's a transcription of Bishop's scrawled note:

I have prepared this statement in regards to the terrorist acts I am about to commit. First of all, Osama bin Laden is absolutely justified in the terror he has caused on 9-11. He has brought a mighty nation to its knees! God blesses him and the others who helped make September 11th happen.

The U.S. will have to face the consequences for its horrific actions against the Palestinian people and Iraqis by its allegiance with the monstrous Israelis--who want nothing short of world domination!

You will pay--God help you--and I will make you pay!

There will be more coming!

Al Qaeda and other organizations have met with me several times to discuss the option of me joining. I didn't.

This is an operation done by me only. I had no other help, although, I am acting on their behalf.

Osama bin Laden is planning on blowing up the Super Bowl with an antiquated nuclear bomb left over from the 1967 Israeli-Syrian war.

I agree on Fischer. I thought they might have enough in them to beat Indie, but they stopped scoring too soon as the Cardinals did Monday.

[mainepatsfan]

Well it would help to do it somewhere where people are actually watching.

[CougarGA7]

That was painful. I didn't have them pegged to win that game, but to put up that kind of lead only to collapse in the second half had me completely P.O'd. Still if they win the games I expect them to they will go 9-7 and probably just miss the playoffs.

[hsmomx3]

Maybe Dennis Green will be fired this weekend???

[6ppc]

They did have a pretty good pic over there! Gave me a good chuckle.

NFL and Homeland Security... say NO CREDABLE Threat!!!!!!

[onyx]

Neil Cavuto is reporting now ---

NFL Commissioner: Minimizing the threats --- says Homeland Security is on top of it.

[HungarianGypsy]

That wasn't as painful to watch as the Cardinals melt down on MNF.

But, honestly, is there anyone who didn't expect it? I predicted the outcome of that game as soon as I heard it announced.

[the OlLine Rebel]

All your base are belong to us.

[b4its2late]

These DUers are idiots beyond belief.

[You Dirty Rats]

Somehow I doubt this will happen. If al-Qaida does succeed in eliminating the Browns they will move up to a tie-for-first on the Cleveland Sports Fans' Enemies List with Art Modell.

[Cyclopean Squid]

That wasn't as painful to watch as the Cardinals melt down on MNF.

Few things were. I just can't support any team, ever. I curse teams. I really do. Although the Cards curse pre-existed me. I want to see them do well, and when they do, something like Monday Night happens. They have potential, and always will, to paraphrase De Gaulle.

[OldFriend]

Somehow Blitzed or his drunken cohort Cafferty will be blaming this on the President.

Website Warns Of Attacks At NFL Games This Weekend
Government Skeptical Of Threat Against NFL Stadiums
(CBS 13 / AP) WASHINGTON A Web site is claiming that seven NFL football stadiums will be hit with radiological dirty bombs this weekend, but the government on Wednesday expressed doubts about the threat.

The threat, posted Oct. 12, was part of an ongoing Internet conversation titled "New Attack on America Be Afraid." It mentioned NFL stadiums in New York, Miami, Atlanta, Seattle, Houston, Oakland and Cleveland, where games are scheduled to be held this weekend.

The Homeland Security Department alerted authorities and stadium owners in those cities, as well as the NFL, of the Web message but said the threat was being viewed "with strong skepticism." Homeland Security spokesman Russ Knocke said there was no intelligence that indicated such an attack was imminent, and that the alert was "out of an abundance of caution."

"The department strongly encourages the public to continue to go about their plans, including attending events that involve large public gatherings such as football games," Knocke said.

The FBI also expressed doubt about the threat.

The Oakland Raiders are scheduled to play the St. Louis Cardinals at McAfee Stadium in Oakland at 1:15 p.m.

The nation's alert level remains at yellow, signaling an elevated risk of an attack. The threat level for airline flights is at orange, a higher level, where it has been since a foiled plot to bomb U.S.-bound commercial jets was revealed
