- Manny Ramirez hits #500......on the same day as Ken Griffey, Jr. goes for #599....For my money, these are the best hitters from each side of the plate in their generations so it's only fitting they were going for milestone HR numbers on the same day....Manny is still underrated since he's a legit. madman.....
- Jay Bruce ripped the Braves' hearts out with his first career HR in walk-off fashion.....last time there was a buzz this big about a prospect in his first week was when Jeff Francoeur went ballistic upon his callup....and Bruce is outhitting that pace already....
- A man named Usain Bolt broke the 100m world record running a 9.71 or 9.72 (it's been reported differently)....It's a shame that this is no longer top news in a sport riddled by performance-enhancing drug controversy....because the "Fastest Man in the World" title used to mean something....
- And another on the line of "Used to mean more" things.....Detroit takes a 3-1 Stanley Cup lead on Pittsburgh....Although I think this series is doing good things for the state of the league in general (Crosby, etc.), they still have a ways to go.....i.e. get an actual TV deal....before they are back
- Jason Taylor calls a news conference....maybe to announce he wants out? or retires? or....???? I have no clue....
Counting down the days until Thursday's NBA Finals tip....
