			In these times of hardship, when people are losing their jobs and homes, when the value of everything is contracting, when international markets are adjusting to a new world order, college sports still walks around with a cocky strut as if it were immune to economic reality. Just last month, Clemson University thought nothing of paying football coach Tommy Bowden a $3.5 million buyout bonus not to coach the football team anymore. That's after they paid him more than $15 million over the past decade and kept renewing his contract so he would stay.
		Black athletes eased Obama's path to White House Sport can't cause a society to change course suddenly, the way this earthquake of an election can. Instead, like an aftershock, sport produces ripples that nudge people in a different direction. Aggressive offense invigorates Clemson CLEMSON â€" Clemson interim football coach Dabo Swinney says Billy Napier is "like a kid in a candy store" as he embraces and shapes his new playcalling role.

			In a matter of 20 minutes, an attorney for cable television network A&E began deconstructing the small-town James Island persona that Richard C. Davis sought to project, casting him instead as a shrewd businessman who knew exactly what he was getting himself into. Davis claims A&E violated a verbal agreement to split any revenue after expenses from the "Flip This House" TV show that documented Davis' risk-taking real estate business, Trademark Properties Inc. Davis' testimony took nearly all of Wednesday, the second day in the jury trial in U.S. District Court.

But after the Chrysler plant where he worked for 15 years shut down last week, Ridenhour has little else to show on his resume. With four kids, a wife and a mortgage, Ridenhour is scrambling to replace his $28-an-hour pay. He isn't optimistic. He knows thousands of others are being thrown out of work every month, making his job hunt a worsening struggle.

Volatility swept over the market again, with the Dow Jones industrials falling nearly 500 points and all the major indexes tumbling more than 5 percent. Yahoo's future uncertain after Google backs out WASHINGTON â€" Facing a legal battle that would have illuminated its widening market power, Google Inc. turned its back on its struggling rival Yahoo Inc. and pulled the plug on an Internet advertising partnership that had been conceived to keep Yahoo out of Microsoft Corp.'s clutches.
