With the trading deadline approaching Oct. 18, we'd like to put an end to the swirling rumors that Philip Rivers is available for trade. Phillip Rivers will be a Charger for the remainder of the season.

I don't know where the rumors come from. But if you hear something, and someone asks you and you say it is fine that should be good enough.

I'll bet for a good five years there's been rumors at every deadline that I'm going to Ottawa.

[Rumors were swirling at Quail Hollow that Tiger Woods was a late arrival because he stopped over at Pinehurst No. 2, about two hours away, where the U.S. Open will be played next month. Not true.] The last time I was there it was raining and I missed a putt on the 18th, ... No, I'm not thinking about that. You can't think about that unless you've won the first three and get to the last one. You've got to take it one step at a time.

The bishop is obviously concerned. The once far-off deadline is quickly approaching. If anyone has been waiting on the sidelines, it is time to step up.

The art of stock trading is the best invention ever invented by man for money making.
