A couple quick hits on disappointing news:
1) The Devils just signed Alex Mogilny, opting against the guaranteed marketing bonanza that is Lucifer, aka Beelzebub, the Tempter, the Father of Lies. Shame on the Devils. Shame! This makes me hate them more than the goddamned left-wing lock. Incidentally, check out the numbering at the end of that link to the Dark Lord... someone at ESPN has a fantastic sense of humor.
2) ESPN has opted to drop their NHL coverage, largely because Stump the Schwab was beating it in the ratings. Ouch. The result? NHL, meet Bassmasters.
3) The PennyRoyals have lost 18 games in a row. Jeebus. Seems like a lot, right? Well, as you probably know, they're only 3 games away from matching the 1988 Glorioles, who hold the all-time AL record for prolonged suck, at 21 games. Bravo, KC. Keep the faith, and hang in there.
4) The Yankees have gone 4-9 against the goddamned Devil Rays this year. The DEVIL RAYS. I now hate the Devil Rays almost as much as I hate the Devils. Didn't the DRays do something like this to the Red Sox a couple years ago? I seem to remember laughing at Jeff about that. Can I get a witness? Oh, and as a side note, I'm pretty sure that Stottlemyre and Torre are openly trying to get fired right now.
That's all I got.

Anyone else look at the Miroslav Satan link that Lehr gave us? If you look at the URL, you can see his ESPN database ID is 666. That's a prime example of why clever nerds make the world a better place.
Also, Joe Torre's mind has turned to Cream of Wheat.
