Don't feel guilty... It's not like you tried to help an eight-year-old cheat at a tennis tournament...
Wait a second. Caleb Campbell, the Army football player, actually wanted to play for the Detroit Lions instead of being deployed to Iraq?
A day later, it still hasn't sunk in ... the Houston Astros traded for broken-down Randy Wolf when they're nowhere near being in contention? This never happens if Astros GM Ed Wade was still alive.
Trent Yawney has been hired as an assistant coach by the San Jose Sharks. That Jack Adams Trophy that Don Cherry predicted for him three years ago can't be too far off.

They should just call it the Algoma center and have done! That way, the company who owns it may change, but hell most companies in the Sault who could afford to buy a stadium have the word 'Algoma' in their name anyway.
