put Gritty between the pipes. (or re-animate Pelle Lindberg)

When I didn’t see a Jamberoo this week, just assumed it was Deadspin Awards hangover.

No, Ed Kranepool, who do ya think?!!

I wonder if Eddie Scizary is still behind the glass.

Isn’t Hakeem “the Dream” Olajuwon actually Nigerian, and not in the Glawell definition but the literal definition.

“USOC spokesman Patrick Sandusky” If you are involved in sports with that last name, you really should change it. 

could you say say the Casspi “jewked” josh Jackson?

I’m sure this is just around the corner:

To really honor Joe Horn, Thomas should sleep with the wife of one of his o-linemen.

Better sports schadenfreude: College sports sadness of alumni 10+ years removed or person who never went to that school and root because of either family connection or grew-up in the area?

New meaning to word “shank” for him.

and all he needs to do is finish 4th to qualify for the World cup he’s an expert at finishing 4th.  

“This picture isn’t in bad taste, the government and mainstream media keeping the truth from the American public is what’s in bad taste,” Pete Carroll. 

When he sells the Knicks, I will feel like a Cuban in Miami when Castro died.  

on the surface that seems like a good idea, but I wonder about teams then going even more into a stall/ non-attacking postilion once they have a 1-0 lead.  Also it seams that soccer time keeping isn’t that precise. 

Qatar 2022 will be 32.  2026 when it’s USA, Mexico and Canada hosting it will be 48 and CAF will have the most spots added.  

what would be a better way at that point to break the tie? the teams are playing 500 miles apart. Maybe all group games go to penalty kicks after regulation and winner then gets 2 points and loser gets 1 point, like in the NHL. Or skip fair play and just go to drawing lots? 

How will they collect if he’s selling the team?  do they take it out of the sale price?  Not approve the sale until the fine is paid?  Seriously once the sale closes, what power does the NFL have over him?  Send a collection agent? 

wow that wasn’t a very nice thing for Quinn Snyder to do.

I remember hearing an interview wit ha Braves exec that they are a “file & go” team; meaning that once sides file for arbitration and submit figures the Braves REFUSE to negotiate any more. I’m sure it was with someone no longer w/ the Front Office, but I could still see it being team policy.
