Lord Stanley’s Cup.
And no, for American non-hockey fan readers, that is not the latest Twitter scandal..
The Vancouver Canucks scored to win game two only 11 seconds into overtime. For many women who are Boston Bruins fans it was the most disappointing 11 seconds since their wedding night.
The sentimental star of game two, in Vancouver, was center Manny Malhotra, who returned to the Canucks lineup in over two months, since he took a puck to the eye.
–
Although Malhotra didn’t score he no doubt fired up the team. And it was something that Boston fans should have learned by now -bad things happen when it’s just an example of “Manny being Manny.”

As Anthony Weiner digs himself deeper with every statement, one politician has found a silver lining in this mess. Because the Democrat who most fellow party members wish would just SHUT UP is no longer Joe Biden.

2-1 loss to the Rockies today. SF Giants appear to be literally a hot hitting team this year. They were hitting fine with temperatures in the mid to high 80s in St. Louis, so that should be no problem as we approach summer in SF…… Uh, never mind.

The Red Sox beat the As 9-8 in 14 innings, after Jason Varitek and Jonathan Papelbon were both ejected in the ninth after getting into it with plate umpire Tony Randazzo. (Papelbon will probably be suspended for making contact with Randazzo) Looks like Boston fans turned on a baseball game and a hockey game broke out.

Li Na today became the first Chinese player to win a tennis grand slam event when she won the French Open. Wonder how she chose tennis over the more popular ping pong in China? Maybe because in table tennis you can’t jump the net to congratulate your opponent.

A man was arrested in Orange County for alleged an DUI after his car jumped a curb, crashed through a chain-link fence and struck a small plane at John Wayne Airport. Wonder if the guy was a pilot in a hurry because he was late for his flight…

John Edwards is basically saying “Hush money is not a campaign contribution.” Jeez, makes “I did not have sex with that woman” look almost statesmanlike.

Papelbon should have just bit the umpire’s finger.

Did Li’s fans chant “NANA NA NA, NANA NA NA, Hey Hey Hey……”
