In The Hoop
FRIDAY, JANUARY 25, 2002 Welcome to In The Hoop, Indianz.Com's occasional column about assorted Indian issues. In The Hoop: The Scorecard
Is it Friday already? That means it's time for the weekly list of the movers and shakers in Indian Country and beyond. The Winners
Nebraska Tribes - Everyone wants you to open casinos. We say take over Whiteclay and watch the profits roll in! EDS Corporation - Auntie Gale can't resist paying you more and more money to come up with reports on Indian trust. Yet she can't seem to turn them in to a federal judge on time... The Coeur d'Alene Tribe - Not to be outdone by the Nez Perce Tribe or the Oneida Nation, you finally have your own dedicated hate group. A true mark that you have arrived. Start preparing the NCAI resolutions! The Senate Indian Affairs Committee - You and your staff can finally move back into your office suite. Now get to work and do whatever it is you weren't doing before September 11. The Losers
Oil and Gas Indians - Time to switch to corn and cattle. You may never get your royalty checks. Native Health - Not just one but two reports and an outcry from tribal leaders tell us you really are in trouble. Fired auditor David Duncan - All your former pals at Arthur Andersen say the shredding was your fault. But you're not talking so we might as well believe them. Alaska Newspapers - Thanks for all that important coverage of the BITAM consultation in Anchorage. We knew we could count on you. Ross Swimmer - It turns out Alaska Natives hate you too. Who knew? In the Middle
The Department of Interior - This is the only week someone else (Enron) looked worse than you. Your stock is still broke though. DOI Computer Security - Top officials have finally admitted you are a problem but that doesn't mean you are going to get fixed. Ambassador Montezuma - We predict you'll last a week before someone finds out your turquoise bracelet was made in China. In Your Hoop
