Pretty sad that the first day after both the NHL and NBA were done for the year, there was all of two baseball games to fill the evening...Chastity Bono is now going by "Chas" and going through the sex change process, giving he/she and mother Cher the runaway record for cosmetic surgical procedures...don't assume that Judge Redfield T. Baum's ruling is the end of the Jim Balsillie's bid to bring the NHL to Hamilton. If Gary Bettman can negotiate a large transfer fee, it won't be a shock to me if it happens. All this ruling says is that a deal won't be done before the end of June. Balsillie comments here...I was all fired up to catch the quarterly Joe Buck Live show on HBO to see how the "huge surprise guest" was and it turned out to be a certain football QB who we don't talk about in these parts anymore. "Boo". Should've known..."Helium taser"? Exactly how it sounds. God bless the internet for inspiring such stupidity...there is talk that Shaquille O'Neal may head to the Cleveland Cavs to join LeBron James in a run for the championship. How amazing would it be to see Shaq and Kobe Bryant bump heads for a fifth ring? You'd see a real freezing of this suddenly cordial relationship, you can bet on that...the Washington Nationals and their disaster of a pitching staff are in New York for the next three days at Yankee Stadium. My fantasy roster is bursting with excitment at the thought of a half dozen homers a night...because big media can always ruin a good thing, NBC bought ProFootballTalk.com...Brazil needed a last gasp goal to beat Egypt 4-3, and Italy rallied from a goal down to beat the U.S. 3-1 in yesterday's Confederations Cup play. Two games, 11 goals. The NHL can only dream...have a great Tuesday.

Check out this Romanian fan scoring a goal in the middle of a riot as the stadium is alight. Again, exactly how it sounds...
