I don't know a thing about American football, but Troy Aikman has been named (by Alex Ferguson) as the best pick from the NFL drafts. After a terrific final year of college with UCLA, where he threw for 2771 yards and 28 TDs [what are they?], Aikman was drafted first by the Dallas Cowboys in 1989.

Brilliant! Don't know where you get these ideas from :)

NGC 2775 (also known as Caldwell 48) is an unbarred spiral galaxy with a prominent ring structure in the constellation Cancer. This galaxy has a bulge and multiple spiral arms, on which few HII regions can be detected, implying recent star formation.

Unicode character U+2779 has the incredible name of "Dingbat Negative Circled Digit Four". I thought it was the Channel Four logo when I first saw it!
