- Sid’s returning to the ice tonight – just announced this morning! – against Tampa Bay. So much for the rumors that he and Hossa would come back for the game of the week against the Rangers on Sunday.
- The next installment of the Deadspin Book Club posted yesterday. In this month’s discussion, we covered Will Leitch’s God Save the Fan. (Yeah, just a little inside baseball.)
- And Adam LaRoche continues to hope for his chance to pitch in the majors. (Sixth item down.)
- Clare sent me this great Star Wars cookie link. “Chocolate chips do not concern me, Admiral. I want that cookie, not excuses.”
Whiles it’s all good and well for LaRoche to dream about pitching, why doesn’t he concentrate on actually playing the position the Bucco’s pay him to play? Once he’s got that down to the point where he doesn’t make you smack your head when he blows another play, he can go ahead and do what he wants.
And hooray Crosby! Careful with the ankle, kid.
