So, what's on the show today? Canada win hockey world championship? Russians are unsportsmanlike in return? Premier league teams keep switching managers?

The Russians were total bad sports at the World Championships this weekend when they lost to Canada in the Final - left before the anthem.

Naturally Kovalchuk was the ringleader of this. Ovechkin, to his credit, tried to keep his teammates on the ice.

That "Putin scores 8 goals" video is the modern equivalent of those ridiculous "Mao swam the Yangtse from end to end" or "Kim Jong-Il made 18 hole-in-ones in a row" stories. Sure sign of a dictator: ridiculous claims of physical feats.

Interesting thing - that Keynote Speech in '04 only was on the cable news networks - ABC, NBC, CBS, and FOX took that night off from convention coverage

Jim - did Bob Dole talk about himself in the 3rd person when you met him?

Crazy! That keynote was so exciting to watch!

Danne D:

The Bush's (i.e. elder Bush) do have family ties to Massachusetts - so not so crazy that he'd do an event there.

Gosh, when Kerry lost I taped the concession speech and then CSPAN then played re-runs of Clinton winning in '92. Haha

The Bushes have ties to Saudi Arabia, too. He should do an event there.

The image of Putin as a "dude" is ENTIRELY manufactured for Russian media consumption. He is just a creep.

@Ike: Putin's image as a "dude" is pretty much the same image as "model on the dvd cover of a gay porn movie about army guys".

Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:39pm

ND is always going with their "roughrider" stuff. Maybe they should finally go for their other state nickname, and call themselves the "flickertails".

Yeah.....actually I can see Jesus tying His own flies!

I always wondered if/when Jesus returns what cities or venues would be on His world tour?

If ND want to stick with Native American names, they should maybe go for the one local tribe that's already extinct: the Mandan. Less hassle than with a tribe with living members.
Avatar 6:44pm
Carmichael:

So, from last week I recall:

water polo
frisbee golf
competitive eating

And this week:

hackysack
pole vault
chesterfield rugby
fly fishing
Avatar 6:45pm
Carmichael:

Unfair advantage for water polo though, as Jesus would walk on the water.

@Carm: also from last week: equestrian events on a donkey, marathon walking, and cross-country running.

Dragging that cross around reminds me of those international strongman competitions, so he could be in the featherweight class in that.

Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:49pm
Caryn:

@Carm: I think the walking on water advantage is the whole point of the water polo suggestion. Heck, he could also compete in speed skating without needing the water to freeze over.
Avatar 6:49pm
Carmichael:

And he could turn the whole pool into wine afterwards and we'd all get wasted.

At Illinois they removed the symbol Chief Illiniwek (he was NOT a mascot per the administration - sure whatev). And the Indian with a headdress logo. This to get out from an potential NCAA sanctions.

They kept the name Illini - as people from Illinois.

They kept all of the songs that they did (one that sounds a lot like an Indian war-drum beat).

huh. there's a lot more 4 strikeout/inning pitchers than i would have thought.

A massive North Dakota donor was so pissed about the potential name change that he gave the $ to build their hockey arena he basically insisted that every single fixture have the Sioux Indian logo embedded in it.

The signs on North Dakota state highways have the silhouette of a native American on them. Are they supposed to replace them, too?
