...live in a divided nation. Thus there are two schools of thought on Joey, the 800-lb. gorilla of new TV shows (NBC, Thursdays, 8 p.m. E.T.), starting Sept. 9. Friends was lame, ergo Joey will be lame. Friends was genius, and ... perhaps we need to give Joey a chance. After the failure of every one of the Seinfeld-alum shows, few think Matt LeBlanc's much-hyped solo sitcom is a guaranteed success.

U.K. regulators have a similar fear, and they've responded by lowering...
...because the Argentine team is already richly endowed with playmakers?none more creative than the midfield genius Juan Sebastian Veron. Bielsa, many commentators suggest, doesn't need an extra goalmaker; he needs a forward who concentrates on the business of slamming the ball into the back of the net. Ergo, he needs Batistuta...
