We don't forget about a story once we've had our initial fun with it:
- Just another weird twist in the saga of Rogue Agent David Frost; he was charged with fraud after using a credit card registered to another person to pay for gas in Kingston.
The card was registered to... Mike Danton. Frost, still facing several sex charges, did hint to a reporter that he's thinking of leaving the Kingston area, but he would say that just to get my hometown's hopes up, wouldn't he? - Speaking of rogue agents, remember news of the disgraced Alan Eagleson's memorabilia auction, which even got mentioned on Sportsnet Connected? His old pals in the working press, Bruce Dowbiggin and Russ Conway, have proven that he's selling a fake Bobby Orr sweater.
- In our Mariners preview, we took note of pitcher Miguel Batista's wordsmithing, adding, "No one's literary ambitions should ever be mocked. (Except for this guy's.)."
That may have to be reconsidered after friend and reader Julian Dickinson forwarded a link to former Duke basketballer/current NBA benchwarmer J.J. Redick's poetry, so-called, which Sports Illustrated actually published two years ago:
No bandage can cover my scars
It's hard living a life behind invisible bars
Searching for the face of God
I'm only inspired by the poems of Nas
Anyone else think that finding out that a Dookie was name-dropping him in poems inspired Nas to write Hip-Hop Is Dead?
