Friday, August 22nd, 2008 - Olympic Shocker

I'm not a huge Greco-Roman wrestling afficianado, but I suspect the move depicted at right is not only not allowed, but also very much against the Olympic spirit. Unless, of course, that's one of the Olympic rings...Entourage is back September 7th. Life is beautiful...a Yankee future without Derek Jeter? It might happen after 2010. A great read, and interesting responses following it, here...speaking of Jeter, his next hit will give him 2,500 on his career...ever wonder what former major leaguer Hideki "Fat Toad" Irabu is up to of late? How about crushing 20 beers and beating on barkeeps?...ProFootballWeekly says the Brett Favre/New York Jets marriage might not be as good a fit as it seems on the surface. Mix in some unhappy players - Laverneus Coles most notably - over the dealing of Chad Pennington and you've got a situation that could go sour real fast...Cliff Lee won his 18th of the year against 2 losses. Sorry Jays Fan, he's a shoe-in for the Cy Young...Josh Beckett has tingling in his fingers and numbness in his arm? Last I remember hearing those symptoms was right before David Cone went out with an aneurysm in his shoulder. The Red Sox do not win in the playoffs without a healthy Beckett...20 ridiculous quotes by athletes, counted down here...a couple quick and dirty RandoMango's coming up this weekend but all the same, look for them in their usual space. Have a great Friday.

In the words of "On Vacation Bukkake", wait until Karma kicks Favre's ass week one, delivered in the form of Joey Porter taking out Farve's knee and ending his career. Go Dolphins in week one!

BTW, as reported at the Eskimos / Roughrider's game last night. The attendance at Commonwealth Stadium last night was 48,808. Better than the Bills in T.O.(48,434)and done without giving away tickets or forcing fans to buy a preseason with the regular season ticket. Eskimos lifetime attendance average is 39,995/game, not bad considering, fans have to shovel snow out of their seats for 1/3 of the games.

Boo NFL in Canada!

the good news is they got 48,000.
the bad news is that's about 15,000 more than typical.
