That's an illusion. It seems this way because you're pedalling in the equivalent of a much lower gear than you generally would on the road. I hear you, man. When I was in university 10 years ago, I rode an unplanned century (100 miles) one Sunday just because I was bored. These days I'm lucky if I can get to work and back before collapsing.

I can't understand why anyone would want to listen to a guy whose claim to fame is winning a Smack-Off on the Jim Rome Show years ago.

Too early to say, but Halladay/Burnett could be right up there when the season's over.

Bryan McCabe is resigning with the Leafs. 5 years, $28.75 mil. Link I think they're going to regret that contract.

Deep down, Pedro's just a big Sox fan. Marlon Byrd just made a really dumb play to give up an extra run to the Jays, possibly two. Diving for a ball in centre you're probably not going to get to is not smart.

I'm not sure about that. Stevens has more rings, and a Conn Smythe. Plus he's fresher in people's minds. Don't get me wrong, I want to believe you.

Morrison to Charlotte. That surprises me a bit. Not the position, but that Charlotte was the team that took him.

Yeah, no kidding. He won't make it in next year, either. That's when everyone who retired after the lockout becomes eligible -- Messier, Stevens, Francis, and MacInnis.

Not everybody visits wrestling sites.

Patrick Roy, Herb Brooks, Dick Duff and Harley Hotchkiss were elected to the HHOF. Link

Have you been in the WWE folder lately?

You mean the match with Bad News Brown? I think in kayfabe, the half-black thing was Piper's way of showing it didn't matter what colour your skin was (referring to Bad News claiming he was being held down). Bad News said in his shoot interview that it pissed him off, and called Piper a racist.

There were three no-doubt things from last night's show: 1. Carolla wasn't exactly thrilled to be doing that bit. 2. Kristen easily deserved immunity. 3. Chris and Michelle nailed the head-to-head(-to-head-to-head). I called it. My wife even called it. Right now, I'm rooting for Chris and Kristen. I wouldn't be unhappy with Gabriel either. I would break things if Roz won.

If Gilmour gets voted in, I might make the effort to go to the ceremony and/or the HoF game. I don't think Tom Barrasso has a hope of getting in. How many goalies could have won those Cups with the Lemieux-Jagr Penguins? A bunch.

http://www.wrestling-titles.com A good source of info for title questions. Henry had the belt for a month before losing it back to D-Lo Brown at Unforgiven 99.

Three more errors for the Nationals tonight. Whenever I see them, on highlights or whatever, someone's making an error.

As a Jays fan, I got 2 World Series titles, followed by 12 years of mediocrity at best. I can't imagine how having 14 years of great teams that just missed instead could possibly be better than that.

Definitely put in the flag match from the Halifax RAW. Plus, the HBK promo announcing him as the guest ref for Summerslam, and the subsequent Bret/Vince fight from the same show. That crowd was absolutely nuclear. You don't see crowds like that anymore.

They'd better, or a certain shitty GM is out of a job... (link)

Parole and (especially) statutory release should be abolished. If you say you're locking someone up for 20 years, LOCK HIM UP FOR 20 YEARS. None of this "OK, it's been 7 years, you can go now if you promise to behave" shit.

Um...yeah.

Cena's winning this clean, isn't he?

THAT'S what Vince took from the first show? That the brand was 'tainted'?? Not that he threw a whole bunch of crap out there that the no one in their right mind would enjoy, especially when presented as 'ECW'?? Vince tainted the brand almost from Day 1. I wonder what colour the sky is in Vince's world.

I have no motivation to watch this show at all. The last few weeks have been lousy, the PPV last night seemed uninspired, there aren't any feuds that I really want to see, and the result of the title match isn't in any doubt.

Christ, I'm almost at .500. I was dead last for the longest time.
