Saturday, August 2nd, 2008 - #99 in your program, #1 in your hearts

Something about anyone wearing #99 bothers me. It bothers me more when the guy wearing it is in L.A...UFC fighter Roger Huerta, who I don't think has ever had a dull fight, is on the record complaining about how he and his fellow fighters are compensated in UFC. Dana White could have a serious problem on his hands when one of his best young fighters is rocking the boat...the very reasonably priced lobster sub is back at SubWay. A footlong can be had for a mere $16.99...the Toronto Maple Leafs may ship Pavel Kubina to Ottawa for Antoine Vermette...Paul Pierce has declared himself the best player in the world. Memo to Pierce: No. Kobe, Lebron, the list goes on...in a week, the Olympics will be rolling, which means we're only 8 days from the inevitable "When Will Canada Medal?" headlines grabbing papers coast to coast...seriously, as great as Mariano Rivera is in a save situation, he's terrible this year when the game is tied. The Yankees lost another that he came in with the game tied in...the L.A. Angels continued their dominance of the AL East, winning their 8th straight over Boston (6-0) and New York (2-0)...the NFL pre-season...August 1st came and went and no announcement from Mats Sundin, despite that being the alleged date he'd decide if he's playing or not. Surprised? Me neither...have a great Saturday.

Sundin confirmed what I kinda thought he was doing, taking a pg from the Shaq and Strahan playbook.
He just wants to chill and stroll in at the end of camp for some team.

Can you really blame him? The camp period is way too long, they play far too many meaningless pre-season games, and then toss in an 80+ games which he's a virtual lock for and it is a bit much for anybody, nevermind a guy in his late 30's. The only break he got was he played for the Leafs and playoffs were something that other teams did the last three years.

He might even go Niedermayer and wait til January...

I told a guy at work my theory and his answer was that ("well atleast he gets 4 months off instead of 2 or 3 like the other teams"). HAHA

If I was Burke I would let him do it every year. Who knows, Sundin might go that way ala Scotty N and Forsberg. It looks that way.
