Halloween for 82 games. 50+ photos of the NHL's masked men and their masks. Better than anything you'll find in your local drug store's Halloween section. (SI)

2,250 boxy, 7-foot soldiers. The best of the green ones, the 300 that can blend into the scenery as much as a portable toilet can, will be stationed near the Central Park finish line of Sunday's New York City Marathon.

Gimme a High Four! On the football field, a place where Trevor Wikre says "time slows down", he felt something like "wet popcorn" in his right lineman's glove.

CFL Pick 'Em, Division Finals Edmonton and B.C. both win on the road, and head into the strongholds of Calgary and Montreal. Closer to home, BoKnows bats .714 for a strong opening week. Can he keep up the pace? Make your picks inside.

One that stood out to me just last year was Hannu Toivonen, then on the Blues. Link below. Love the ears.

Whats the ruling on RICHSWORDS27, JJ? Once you drop, it's no longer an ace, right?
As far as the story, it says there are 15 friends and family that have witnessed the shots. That does make it a little more believable for me. If it was just his drinking buddy Butch, then I would call BS right away. Personally, if I were invited to play golf with a relative who has had 2-4 aces in a week, I would have recorded every shot and had proof of the 5th or whatever number he was on. If it's tru, then congrats, that's amazing. If it's not, then shame on you.

Everyone's pretty much lower than me, YYM. But as much as it pains me to include a Wings fan, you sir, are low enough to deserve thanks as well. 3 digits for sure, and some select 4 digiters.

Prefontaine - because TT really, really likes him.
And I guess David Duval wasn't getting it done on the Tour, so it's CFL kicking for him now. Who knew?

I'd like to thank all the low number people for their guidance over the last year and a half. I couldn't have done it without you. Thanks again, DrJ.

Rain Game Enters World Series Lore Players on both the Philadelphia Phillies and Tampa Bay Rays can't believe the conditions in the rain-suspended game 5 in the World Series, particularly in the sixth when the Rays drove home the tying run in the slop. "That was probably the worst conditions I've ever played under in my life," said Carlos Pena of the Rays. "When do you ever see a puddle at home plate?"

Wouldn't weather delayed games in April (or March) be more acceptable than a World Series delay? Methinkso.

Why not just start the season a week early? Or two? And be done by mid Oct. I'd consider that most of the problem solved.

Isiah Thomas, Media-Savvy As Always Savvy politicians and public officials typically release bad news to the press on a Friday afternoon, assuming the press will be tired of the story by Monday and the public won't remember.

Right on, BI. For future reference, anytime I include lyrics performed by Amy Winehouse, the entire comment should not be taken seriously.

When emergency services showed up, they confused a 17-year-old girl with a 47-year-old man.
Poor girl, maybe she does look like a 47-year old male. And when the medics arrived they said they were going to take him/her to rehab and he/she said "No, No, No."

Small Bug Only issue I've noticed recently. In the member pages (my own is the link cited), the old menu appears in the upper right corner, as it was before the remodel. And assumably due to said remodel, all the links but "home", "about", and "locker room" are dead. If this has been hit before, my apologies. And if this is in process, again the apologies. Just thought I'd bring it to light.

I'm guessing this issue is being resolved boredom, but it's not on the top of the priority list.
Curiously rcade, what's next on the agenda?
