Notes from Nowhere Jaromir Rodin
"They can't win everything...They won the last few years...Beating Canada is always a big thing. They have the best hockey players and nobody else can say that. This year we had more luck than them. I think it's all luck."

- Jaromir Jagr, noted sabermetrician

"I've taken a lot of crap from a lot of people. Probably more than anybody in the history of this sport. I know Hank [Aaron] and Jackie [Robinson] took a good deal of crap, but I guarantee it wasn't for six years. I just keep thinking: How much am I supposed to take?"

Tango,

Uglyone did not make that up. I saw it on the espn site a few days ago. It is better for your heart to laugh about it than to cry.

Don't take it seriously. Rocker has a great sense of irony

I just missed this story entirely. Here's the best take on it that I found: NY Daily News I especially liked the highlights at the end.

Man, I miss Hijack Central....

In honour of some Star Wars movie that's opening today, here's a GREAT link:

And, yes, there is a baseball angle (I just LOVE Johnny Damon's comparison :) )
