Beer count: Still at 12.
Some random thoughts from this week.
1. Who would've ever thought a member of the Flyers would be involved in illegal activities. Shocking.
2. People are ripping Wayne Gretzky saying "didn't he wonder where the $500,000 grand went." Well, I think he's spent most of the time wondering where how she went from this to this.
3. I was thinking about Wayne Gretzky on my way home last night. Think about this, his entire life, he's never - EVER - had to answer ONE question about his off-the-ice actions. NEVER. NEVER. And now, because some dopey ex-Flyer and his dopey wife want to bet $5,000 on a coin flip, he's getting badgered everyday. Women.
4. I won't get pumped up for the Rangers until everyone is home from Turin in one piece. Speaking of the Rangers, I don't care what Sid Crosby is doing or what Alex Ovechkin is doing, this Hank Lundqvist is the NHL rookie of the year, and quite possibly, the regular season MVP - though the honor could go to Jags.
5. Is there something wrong with Dick Vitale? His voice sounds shot and hoarse all the time. What's up there?
6. Gotta say I'm not too fired up for spring training this year. I have a bad, bad feeling about the Mets this year. I mean, a lot of people say they didn't get much better, but honestly, swapping Looper for Wagner is a big improvement right there. Plus you have Delgado at first instead of Doug "I suck" Mientkiewicz. Plus, Wright and Reyes can only get better (right?) and Beltran had to get better (right?) . Still, with a pitching staff looking older than Janet Jones, I have some serious concerns. THe only bright side is, the rest of the division, besides the Braves, suddenly sucks. The Marlins will blow, and the Phillies - well, they have Arthur Rhodes setting up for Tom Gordon. The Nats, they should be good, but they don't worry me. Really, the Mets worry me.
7. Might have a beer this weekend. The last time a major snowfall hit, me and my neighbors had a shovel/drinking party outside. So stay tuned. If I can make it through this weekend without a taste or two, I may be able to hold out until St. Patty's Day.
That's all for now. Enjoy the snow, and Happy Valentine's day to everyone.

Perhaps the first sign of trouble arrived five minutes ago, when it was announced they signed Rickey Henderson to a 10-day contract.
I don't care what his role is. The last this squad heard from him, he was playing cards with Bobby Bonilla in the clubhouse while the rest of the team was watching the season go down in flames against Atlanta.
Fuck Rickey. I hope he breaks his leg.
Maybe after his stint in Port St. Lucie he can go help Juan Samuel coach the AA squad.
I don't want that cat anywhere near Joey Kings (jose reyes). I can't believe this.
Thanks for the head's up.
I heard the Mets were bringing George Foster back to lecture the young players on media relations and racial harmoney
Can't wait to see what 20 inches of snow has done to your tastes total...
Sadly, beer count still on 12. I was all set to bang down some tastes today (Sunday), but mom nature didn't put enough snow in Central Jersey to keep me from going to work.
So ......
