Boating Survivor Found
A missing boater found clinging to an overturned boat was rescued Monday off Florida's Gulf Coast, but the search continued for two NFL players and another man aboard who didn't return from a weekend fishing trip.
Survivor Nick Schuyler, a former University of South Florida player, told rescuers that the 21-foot boat was anchored when it flipped Saturday evening in rough seas and that the others got separated from the boat, Capt. Timothy M. Close said. Schuyler, who was wearing a life vest, had been clinging to the boat since then.
The boat belongs to Oakland Raiders linebacker Marquis Cooper, who along with free-agent defensive lineman Corey Smith and former South Florida player William Bleakley, remained missing.

Tyler Perry No. 1 At The Box Office Second Week In A Row
And believe it or not, Tyler says he's just as sick of Madea as some of you are. Tyler says he wishes he could kill Madea off, but admits as long as people want to see her, he will continue play her. “(She’s) a whole lot of fun to watch. But to do it is a nightmare. It’s all one suit that I’m zipped into, so it’s all heavy. The hips are heavy. And the more I sweat, the heavier it gets. I see why women have back problems who have large breasts. Holding those things upright can be tough.” All that aside, Tyler Perry's Madea's Class Reunion is in pre-production.
Tyler also reveals that he is planing to buy an island for his 40th birthday September 14. As for what he plans to call his personal slice of paradise Tyler says, "It won't be Tyler Perry's Island! I'm so sick of seeing Tyler Perry all over everywhere! I'll know what to call it once I'm there. It'll speak to me."
