Congratulations, Canada. You won the hockey gold medal last night in an overtime shootout despite having BY FAR the most talented team in the tournament AND the home-crowd advantage (and even home ice for your goalie, Vancouver’s Roberto Luongo). How did you ever overcome those odds to barely defeat the US team that was ranked [...]
This Swedish hockey player scored his first goal of the season, then celebrated by peacing out. Way to go out on top, dude.
Ah, with baseball here in Chicago dead and buried (and thank god for that, really), it’s nice to have hockey back. In fact, it’s wonderful for a functional alcoholic like me, because I’m actually tempted to stay in occasionally and watch biscuit, instead of looking for love and answers at the bottom of a pint [...]

But there’s something different about these two teams that makes me think they will get back some of their mystique and be back to their winning ways in the very near [...]

Here’s a couple tearjerkers for you: First a story about Vince Young picking up the slack and taking care of Steve McNair’s fatherless kids. Apparently McNair’s youngest sons had a breakfast event through their school with all of the kid’s dads this morning. McNair’s kids had to hear all week how excited the other kids [...]
