--Though he's been rumored to be a candidate for both the Liberty and Long Beach State head coaching jobs, Cameron Dollar says it isn't true. Which means he's probably on a private plane to Long Beach right now.
--Sharkansky jumps the shark.
--Georgetown's Jeff Green on the Blazers? Oh, please, God, yes.
--A-Rod to the Angels? Oh, please, God, no.
--Speaking of the Angels, thanks to them you'll learn a new baseball term today: coconut snatching.
--And speaking yet further of the Angels, Chone Figgins has a broken finger. Not known yet how much time he'll miss, but probably at least part of the regular season.
--Bobby Engram visited the Saints, but the Hawks still expect to resign him. And the Saints expect the Hawks to resign him. So that looks good.

For me, 80 is only 34 years away, but that seems like an awful long time still.
My guess is we'll be tutt-tutting far stranger things than amputee-fetishism by then: things like human-robot sex, radical genital reconfigurations (I'm not talking gender reassignment surgery here, but things we haven't even dreamed up yet), extreme BDSM activities that make branding & suspension look like child's play.
I figure just the stuff that Warren Ellis posts on his website (warrenellis.com) on a regular basis (most of it apparently culled from extreme body-modification web sites) represents only the tip of the proverbial ice berg, sexual-deviation-wise, and those are things people are doing to themselves - and to each other - right now.
The Angels are always a thorn in the side of the Yankees. I would love it if A-Rod moved to the left coast. Good riddance.
