Edmonton 3, Wild 1: If this game was a bad date, it would have been described like this: “Everything was going great. We were talking, we were sharing stories, we were flirting, and then all of the sudden, he/she pulled off a mask and I realized, ‘Oh my goodness, this isn’t an actual person. I’m on a date with a donkey.’” In other words, the Wild led 1-0 after two periods, only to give up three goals in the third — two of them in the final five minutes, just 14 seconds apart — to continue their recent woes.
49ers 24, Seahawks 14: The ESPN.com headline is “Seattle Stunner.” We say nothing stunning can happen in a conference where just about every team smells like feet.
Another cyclist is cheating: Tammy Thomas was indicted for obstructing a federal steroids investigation. Shhh, she’s coming. Try to act surprised.
Allen Iverson may or may not be a basketball player: That seems to be where we’re at with the trade rumors these days, as The Answer continues to collect dust. Timberwolves fans continue to show hope because today is the day Mike James becomes eligible to be part of a deal.
