We have a few links to end the day, including a pair from a Minneapolis-based blogger named H. Sinker. First up: The opening ceremony garb that will be worn by the U.S. Olympic team. (Pictured). Heh. The first rule of Yacht Club is you don’t talk about Yacht Club, we suppose. Can’t wait to see Chris Bosh’s take on the ensemble.

*Also from Howard S. We mean H. Sinker. Shoot! Anyway, two West Virginia men’s hoops players were arrested at a Pirates game.

The 20-year-old players began arguing with police when they refused a request for identification, according to a criminal complaint. The officers said the two smelled of alcohol.

Thoroughman said he did not have ID, according to the report. Police said he lied about his age and threatened a security guard. Police said officers brought Thoroughman to the ground when he refused to put his arms behind his back. While Thoroughman was struggling with the officer, Mazzulla tried to grab his teammate and punched a police sergeant.

*And finally, friend of the RandBall family and sometime commenter MC Creme Fraiche has entered the blogging fray with the “Old Enough To Party,” probably the best blog name ever. Weekly features will include “Too Hot For a Shirt,” among other things. We might even do some guest posting about non-sporty things from time to time. For now, though, enjoy this entry about a man whose ears look like Chili Cheese Fritos. There will likely be swears over there. Don’t say you weren’t warned.

If you missed the croquet video, shame on you.
