Sunday Funday!

I should probably start watching this game instead of writing about it, so we'll make this short.

The Chicago Blackhawks and the Philadelphia Flyers are beginning Game 5 as we speak, tied in the championship series 2-2. Both teams seem to fare better on their home turf, naturally. Chicago seemed to have this under wraps, but the Flyers have definitely gotten a little more than their feet wet at this point in the series.  Can the 'Hawks recover from their ego bashing back to back road losses now that they're home?

Oh, this is almost as good as LOST....

Vick making NFL season debut this Thursday.

I love that photo...just sayin'.

Former dog slayer/returning quarterback Michael Vick is slated to make his season debut starting with the Philadelphia Eagles this Thursday against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Vick is in for up to three quarters, and will definitely not play in the fourth. Of course, this all depends on how he can hang with 11 huge dudes charging him. Remember, Vick hasn't played an actual game in two years.

Eagles coach, Andy Reid, says Vick looks sharp in his drills, but he will be quick to yank him off the field if he can't hold up against the opposition. Donovan McNabb will likely be waiting on the sidelines to go in and help the team through the third quarter if need be.

Regardless, Michael Vick's return to the NFL playing field will be something to watch. Will you be tuning in? We will!

Vick is high like an eagle.

Convicted dog killer/NFL quarterback Michael Vick has reportedly just signed a deal with the Philadelphia Eagles for the 2009 season. Vick's agent, Joe Segal, gave word that both sides had come to an agreement, and Vick will be hitting the showers shortly.

Just keep him away from the mascots.

Vick is slated to head up against Tom Brady's new bionic leg and the New England Patriots in the first exhibition game of the season. That one should be interesting. Robot versus Animal Killer.

I like baseball better.

Another reason that Shane Victorino is a pansy.

Philadelphia Phillies Shane Victorino center fielder can't take the heat. Or the pint. Victorino file a police report after having some beer dumped on him in a successful attempt at catching a long fly ball at Wrigley Field this week.

Of course, the Chicago Cubs chairman, manager and general manager all ran quickly to apologize for the incident (like they had any control over it).

"It's part of the game. It's one of those things that happens and I just want to make sure that guy gets what's due," Shane says of the incident.

If it's part of the game, why did you file a police report? Huh, huh?

Dick. I thought it was funny.

UPDATE: The alleged beer thrower is facing two charges: battery and illegal conduct within a sports facility.

Soccer hooligans, be warned. Wrigley Field is not a safe place.
