Snark break ...

Pour the milk in before the cereal? You wild man, you ... meantime, chew over one man's opinion of The Tragically Hip's five best songs, especially if you do know where Kingston is ...

It is NHL trade deadline day, or for people with an inner life, Wednesday.

The nerve of that Alex Rodriguez. How dare he say the Yankees could use Mets shortstop Jose Reyes, who's only nine years younger and is making $14-million less this season than Derek Jeter. It was a tough Tuesday all around for diva ballplayers. Manny Ramirez is almost signed, took attention away from rumblings Barry Bonds wants to play again and Darryl Strawberry saying, "hell, yeah," he would have taken steroids in the 1980s.

Fox Sports has an anti-ice agenda; five of the flicks on their 10 Worst Sports Movies involved hockey or figure skating.

Shame on anyone who doesn't realize Youngblood was brilliant in its way. It's worth it alone for spotting Steve Thomas and Peter Zezel as extras and the fact that it shows the Hamilton Mustangs taking the bus home after a game in Thunder Bay which shows the screenwriters didn't have a clue about Canadian geography.

The Wrestler and Hot Rod were basically the same movie.

This post is worth nothing, but this worth noting:
  • The three St. Francis Xavier basketball players facing assault charges won't play in the Atlantic conference tournament, but could be reinstated for the CIS Final 8. That includes one of their star guards, Tyler Richards, along with Nepean native William Donkoh.
