COSTELLO: Oh, fear the Lions. The Detroit Lions have made Calvin Johnson the highest paid receiver in the entire NFL. The Lions have locked up their star wide out for eight year with $132 million contract. Johnson caught 96 passes last season for 1,681 yards and a whopping 16 touchdowns. Johnson and quarterback Matthew Stafford from one of the league's top passing combos, I cannot wait for football season to begin. I'm a Detroit Lions fan -- sorry. New York Knicks coach Mike D'Antoni has resigned. Reports said he'd lost the locker room. Assistant Mike Woods taking over the team. Knicks on a 6-game skid hosting Portland. Linsanity may have cooled but boy, is Jeremy Lin still making the plays. You should see him there. He passes to Carmelo Anthony, who hits the three. This game was a blowout. Knicks win, 121-79. March Madness, well under way. The NCAA field is now down to 64. The team in green, South Florida used the cycling defense on Cal. Held the Bears to just 13 points in the first half. South Florida goes on to win, 65-54. The Bulls advance to play Temple on Friday. Vermont also moved on last night. The Catamounts shot 50 percent from the field, beating Lamar 71-59. Vermont's only other win in the tournament came in 2005, an upset of Syracuse. The Catamounts will have an even bigger challenge Friday when they take on the number one seed, UNC. Rod Blagojevich gets his one-way ticket from Illinois to Colorado. The former governor begins a 14-year prison sentence today. We'll talk to a "Chicago Sun Times" reporter who followed the scandal from start to finish. What will she have to blog about now, now that Blago has gone away?
