It's just not going away. Dwayne Roloson, who was among the player reps who raised a stink about this last September, really seems to have been vindicated, both on- and off-ice. Yours truly said as much about Roli the Goalie 3½ months ago -- when exactly no one had any idea that he would lead the Oilers to improbable appearance in the Stanley Cup final.
- King Kaufman of Salon.com, on Bud Selig's silly policy to have the All-Star game decide home-field advantage in the World Series: "Selig's the kind of guy who fixes his muffler by getting a louder stereo."
- James Mirtle picked up on this: there are plans for the Florida Panthers and New York Rangers to play an exhibition game in Puerto Rico. You know, just on the off-hand chance someone in Puerto Rico is a big Henrik Lundqvist fan.
- Ah, the baseball All-Star Game. Just when it had been almost six months since the last time I had to listen to Joe Buck. Buck just referred to the Jays' Vernon Wells "as a tremendous athlete who has been overlooked." Number of times Buck's corporate masters have featured the Jays on the Game of the Week: None that I can recall.
- Gotta love those sports clichés, along with sports movies you can share with your girlfriend.
