Link Updates

Well, it had to happen sooner or later, but Robin of "Robin Worldwide" fame has lost the coveted "New Blog" link to not one, but two new blogs. Though the blogs are older than ours, the "New Blog" is not a discriminating award, she is no fickle master. The award considers all worthy candidates.

So that aside, let's welcome The Butterfly Network and The Asian Mistress into the sacred territory of being linked on DC SPORTS. May you carry your designation proudly until the next new link proves itself worthy.

So anyway, in sports news today, did anyone watch the Homerun Derby last night? Bobby Abreu just up and decided to smash the all-time derby record by about 14 homeruns. I wonder if this newfound anger comes from that rumor about his wife...

The celebrity softball game, of which I watched about two innings, was pretty disappointing. Jennie Finch was prominently featured, which didn't do much for me. Though I-66 and Deep Cover vehemently disagree with me, I'm just not much into Jenny Finch. Too fake looking. Now Amanda Beard on the other hand, is smoking hot. However, being an 18-year baseball player (out of the 25 years of my short life) makes me appreciate a woman who can hit a baseball or softball, and do a decent job of it. Let's say Ms. Beard's skills were severly lacking in that department.

Finally, on a sad note (You can't stop Debbie Downer.) Those of you who have been born here, raised here, or have lived here for any amount of time are probably familiar with the Don and Mike show. It's the afternoon drive talk show on WJFK, 106.7 F.M. Though recent FCC restrictions have cut out some parts of their show, they've always managed to make me smile after a rough day at work. Sadly, Don's wife, Freda, was killed in a car accident two nights ago, so the show is understandably going through a rough period.

Anyone who has been a fan of this show might want to send a prayer Don's way.
