Not more holes, just bigger holes. And, sadly, the Clarke photo is on hiatus, due to bandwidth issues. Use your imagination:

So all that "X-Pac beat Chyna up" and "Chyna fears for her life" stuff was just a misunderstanding? Good to know. BTW, I'll take June in the "when will these two be in the news again" pool.

Marvin Lewis is going to tab Carson Palmer as the Bengals' starter for next season.

Yeah, just take actual ABs per game (divide actual ABs by actual games played), then multiply by 162.

Here's to Hockey Day In Canada!!

You'd be getting hosed at $300 for that system. I wouldn't even pay $300 Canadian for that today. I think I paid $600 CDN for that exact system 3 years ago.

I agree. That's why this season is going to piss me off so much.

Being a Jays fan, I'm curious as to what makes you so optimistic about their ability? Notice how I didn't say chances, since they are playing with the Bosox and Yankees. Well, their offence is the same as last year's (which was one of the best in the majors), and their pitching is quite improved. They're stronger in the 1-4 spots that at any time since '93, and they may well have a legit closer in Speier. The bullpen isgoing to be the turning point for them, but I don't think 90 wins is an unrealistic goal for them at all.

You do not walk away from the New York Yankees. What the hell is this, the Mafia?

This season is going to piss me off, I'm sure of it...The Blue Jays have their best team in a decade, and they're in the WRONG DAMN DIVISION. Oh well...

10 to 20.

Sens blow ANOTHER late lead and lose in OT to the Thrashers. You know, if the Sens won every game in which they had the lead going into the final two minutes, they'd probably be about 5 or 6 points clear in the East by now. As it is, East looks like this: x-Leafs (78) x-Flyers (78) x-Lightning (73) Senators (77) Bruins (77) Devils (72) Verrrrrry interesting.

I look at this issue, and all I can think of is... Thank God I actually get decent hockey coverage.

Nope, it's actually true. I think they mentioned it on one of the "Before They Were Superstars" tapes.

Yeesh. He was talking about when SMU football got the death penalty in the mid 80s.

I have newfound respect for the Boss after that statement. That is ownage in the first degree.

Watching the finish to the Senators/Capitals game, I can clearly say that this season is featuring the worst fucking officiating I have ever seen in my entire life. Brendan Witt got called for a four-minute high-sticking penalty a minute into overtime -- CLEARLY a deserved penalty, as he pretty much whacked Peter Schaefer in the side of the head and drew blood -- and the refs couldn't even it up fast enough, as they called Jason Spezza for the biggest phantom call you'll ever see with 2:15 left, negating what would likely have been a Senators win at a very crucial point of the season. It's like they were apologizing to Witt for calling that penalty on him. It's fucking disgusting. I may miss the NHL if the lockout happens next season, but I certainly won't miss the piss-poor excuses for referees currently overseeing NHL games. (Incidentally, Olie the Goalie made 47 saves and singlehandedly got Washington a point in a 1-1 tie.)

That was Davey Boy.
