Random Things You Should Care About

* This is easily the most bizarre news of the NHL off-season. Hell, it might be the most bizarre news of the calendar year. Former Flyers goalie Garth Snow retired in order to take over the NY Islanders' GM position after Neil Smith, one of the worst GMs in the business, was fired. Seriously. He wasn't good enough to be the Islanders #1 goaltender, and all of a sudden he's running the team? How long before players begin demanding trades?

* There seems to be a plethora of good movies out right now. At the top of my recommendations list is Little Miss Sunshine. If you're one of those people who lacks the ability to laugh, don't bother. Otherwise, see it on opening night. Once in a Lifetime: The Extraordinarory Story of the New York Cosmos was also excellent if you're a fan of sports or history. It's a facinating story that you'll be amazed you've never heard. And if you're a sucker for mindless chick flicks with brilliant performances by Meryl Streep, The Devil Wears Prada isn't so bad, either.

* I love A-Rod. I really do.




* The SoSH Red Sox wiki has to be one of the coolest things ever. There's not a Red Sox fact in existance that can't be found there. If only every sports team had a wiki with such depth.

* The NFL starts training camp in less than one week. Hell, the Eagles have already started. But if your team can claim Todd "Alligator Arms" Pinkston as its #1 wide receiver, you should not be excited.

Speaking of football, I have a wonderful gift for Eagles fans and Cowboys haters. Look for it here on Friday.
