  The year is only 12 days old and already there have been a number of absolutely shocking stories that nobody could have have possibly anticipated.  Here are the top five: 1.  Mark McGwire acknowledged using steroids and HGH on a regular basis during his MLB career 2.  Jay Leno failed to find an audience at 10 p.m. and his show was cancelled by NBC 3.  Conan O’Brien failed to find an audience at 11:30 p.m. (other than males under the age of 25 interested in masturbating bears) and his future at NBC remains very murky 4.  Pete Carroll bolted USC for the Pacific Northwest mere weeks before [...]
