#4 - Mini Notes of Note
It may only be 10:30am, but it's Saturday so I'm tired anyway. As you know, that can only mean one thing. It's time for the great nation of Hungary's favourite new feature: Notes of Note
Graceful Retiree
Andre Agassi bid goodbye to a long career yesterday, losing 6-4, 3-6, 7-5 for Gonzalez in the quarter-finals of the Countrywide Classic in LA. Not quite the high-profile tournament you'd want to see him finish at, but something can be said about finishing your career in your home town. Those of us old enough to remember his long-haired, bad boy fashion rebel days of his early career should be stunned with how his tennis days will be remember. Not as a rebel, but as a consumate professional and all around great guy on the tour. It's amazing how much someone can mature from their early twenties to their mid thirties. I just hope it never happens to me.
My Testosterone Levels
I'm at about a 6 to 1 ratio now... I'm lovin it!
Arbitration
It seems odd to me that nobody told the Arbitrators in the NHL front office that there is a salary cap in the league now. Some of these rulings are just counter productive to what the league is trying to do. I can't believe the league hasn't stepped in yet in some form, because this is just not good for anything.
Michelle Wie
Goober told me to write about her, but I don't really know what to say outside of she's still hot, and still doing well on the LPGA side (although she doesn't have a single victory yet which is odd for someone that gets so much media coverage), and shouldn't be bothering on the PGA side. When asked what he wanted me to write about, he said "yeah she's hot, she's doin alright golfing so far, last I heard". Good stuff.
More Cowbell
There is ALWAYS time for more cowbell!
