From Edmonton Journal: Re: Taylor Fedun

As I was assembling my data for this year, I considered the following: at one time, games were called "Home" or "Away". Somewhere along the line, "Away" was replaced by "Road". When this happened, I don't rightly know. I remember photocopying an NHL schedule, from the late 1920's, and the term they used then was "Abroad".

And, the suspended game elminates the first off day.

TSN.

The Globe and Mail .

I've recently heard two interseting Boston stories: 1) Up until last week, they were still trying to land a starting pitcher; someone who could be used up to and including a playoff game, knowing they couldn't use him in the playoffs. 2) After beating Toronto 14-0 in September, Francona held closed-door meeting with the players to see if they were all "on the same page" and knew what had to be done to achieve any postseason goals. Next game started a five-game losing streak. I suspect Epstein is safe. Then again... Weather related: MGR Girardi said it was the twenty-third game this season affected by rain in New York alone. John "Micro Manager" Sterling, the current "voice" on radio, said that in his thirty years as a broadcaster he has never seen as much rain as this season in New York.

Someone has to sit down with Mr. Smith, as soon as possible, and impress upon him the fact that this is not how to make a name for himself in this League.

From Toronto Star:

With a game as important as the one last night, how does the Trop' not even hit thirty-thousand in attendance? Kudos to the players; you don't have to do it for the fans.

MLB. I guess MLB forgot that games on the last day of the reugular-season are supposed to have early start times.

With all the money coming in, Bettman can stop looking for a new buyer in Phoenix.

Another great use of Viagra; who knew?

Sadly, this is the way the job could should have been done for a long, long time.

Thanks to a new Viagra commercial, that I saw during an NFL game today, using the song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MBLzTD2wTzg

"Man Bites Dog". The final clinching is done.

He still hates this time of year.

I like this... a lot.

Only one day of rest for the teams in the two ALDS; unless there's a playoff game.

He did it with Kitchener in the OHL; it made a household name, usually with an expletive in the middle.

Test Number One: TSN.

Two games, two wins, two clinchings. Nice. C'mon, Los Angeles. They should make the Division Series best-of-seven.
