Roger Craig was one of the most versatile running backs the NFL has ever seen.

A perfect fit for Bill Walsh's short-passing offensive system, in 1985 Craig became the first man to gain 1,000 yards rushing and 1,000 receiving in the same season.

The Red Sox has permeated nearly every facet of Bostonist's lives. When they're not live-blogging the games, waxing poetic about the games, thanking Curt Schilling for his splendid work, or telling Dane Cook to watch his hair, they're watching certain presidential candidates hop on the Red Sox bandwagon (sorry, Gothamist). The Sox are so branded on the local brain that people are using the Series to spice up their sex lives. Speaking of spice, Bostonist is really sick of that taco promo. And, while they're proud of John Williams, Bostonist is still trying to figure out Williams' "Very Special Arrangement" of the "Star Spangled Banner."

Now that the National Football League's 2007 schedule has been released, let the carpin' in Oakland begin.

We've all thought about it -- but who knew someone had the Easter Eggs to actually go and do it? CHP arrested a Petaluma man Wednesday on 101 in Marin for dressing up a dummy and putting it in the front seat of his car so he could use the carpool lane. The solo commuter had dressed up a kickboxing dummy in a Miami Dolphins jersey and baseball cap and reclined the front seat back so it looked like the Marino fan was just taking a quick nap on the way to work. A cop, who often checks in windows as cars whiz by in the HOV lane, thought it looked funny and pulled the guy over. Cops say they don't usually catch folks with the full-on dummy, but it's fairly common to find people with dolls strapped into car seats. It's a $351 fine -- but hey, who knows how long this guy had been pulling this? If you amortize that over like a year, that's just a buck a day! (Maybe it's time to revisit that highway toll lane proposals after all!)
