The Wager

Remember the Blue Jays bet I made with Stephen Amell from Searching For '93, back in March? You know; eight categories, over/under, seven worth one point, wins worth two points, highest total score wins.

And, of course, $100 and a videotaped autograph with Mike Wilner on the line.

Well, I joined SA on a podcast for an update. Thanks to some fine handicapping by Mr. Amell, the score is tight, and it should be fun to see how it plays out over the summer months.

Have a listen. As SA put it: "Along the way, we may or may not talk about Twitter, Jeff Blair, the Raptors, Reggie Evans, Bryan Colangelo, the Stanley Cup Finals and, um, other stuff. It's a great conversation."

Enjoy. If you get through the whole thing, you're a trooper, and I'd love to know your thoughts.



A Simple Decision

What to do on a Friday night: head down to the Rogers Centre and watch Roy Halladay abuse the Florida Marlins? Or head to a local establishment to watch game seven of the Stanley Cup Finals between the Red Wings and Penguins? (Win that shit, Hossa.)

In all honesty, it's a no-brainer. Doc only starts 15-to-17 home games a year.

Ohhh that's a tought one brother. As much as I love Doc, I have to say catch Game 7 as it has turned into one helluva series and tape or TiVo Doc. After tomorrow, there won't be anymore hockey to watch for quite awhile. It could be a good thing or a bad thing. Cheers on which ever way you go.

You mentioned on the twitter that we needed a nickname for Jason Frasor. I was thinking about it today and the most obvious thing that came to me was:

Jason "The Razor" Frasor.

think it will catch on?

I'm down with Razor. It's a beautiful nickname.

Razor? Who is he, Donovan Ruddock?

Jason Frasor is the Bullpen Ninja.

Bro, can you please tell your boy that it's Halladay, not Holloday....
Also, to Rio's defense, apparently the kid was sent to Rios by a guy that hounds the players for autographs all the time and turns around and sells them... Apparently...
