Morning Link Dump - Friday, October 10th

Obligatory Sports Babe

Look at that little filly! Do I even need to put this into a proper context? Just... rrrawrrr!!

Alright, Simmer Down...

Actually, I'm pretty sure hot isn't quite the word I'd use for this one. Unless crazy counts as hot. Which it totally does.


About Last Night

Don Cherry, as one might expect, brought his incoherent A-game last night during the NHL's season-opener-except-for-those-two-games-in-Europe-that-you-didn't-watch between the plucky Leafs and the Detroit Red Wings. When Grapes declares his love for Def Leppard, you know it's going to be a good night.

Except... well... are those two HNIC anthem finalists really the best this country could come up with? So unbelievably lame. I mean, I know the bar has been set ridiculously high and everything, but seriously, call Tesh. I mean it. He's probably just sitting on his couch or something. (Listen to the final two here and here.)

Clint Malarchuk Accidentally Shoots Himself in the Chin

I'm not sure why I'm even writing this paragraph. The heading there pretty much tells you everything that you need to know about the next link. It's about Clint Malarchuk. Accidentally shooting himself. In the chin. With a .22 calibre rifle. And no matter how much I'd like to get a cheap laugh out of this situation, it just pretty much completely sucks, so I can't do it. It sounds like he's going to be OK, at least.

Paul Lucas is a Strange Man

Lucas writes Uni Watch for ESPN, where he's taken to chronicling, in painstaking detail, anything and everything to do with the uniforms worn by teams in North American professional and college sports. Now, this isn't to say that his columns don't make for an interesting read, it's just, some of the minutiae-- such as: "The Ducks appear to have made their chest logo slightly larger -- compare last season to this season."--  is pretty mind boggling. (Of course, I just spent my morning looking for a good picture of Ace Ventura in a tutu and trying to figure out how to embed a video of a girl shooting a bottle rocket from her mouth, so uh... who the hell am I to talk?)

On Thursday, he previewed some of the uniform changes that we'll be seeing during the new NHL season-- and, as anyone with eyes might expect, took the opportunity to dump on the travesty that is the Thrashers' new third jersey design.

Uhh... You Might Want to Rethink That Headline...

I understand that the LPGA is all about promoting vague sexuality and everything, but in my view, double entendres like this one in the San Francisco Chronicle probably go a little too far.

Late Addition to the Link Dump!!!!

Gibbs12.com-- via Sports By Brooks-- brings us the worst sports fan tattoos! (That is, the worst ones to actually have permanently etched on your body. Because, I mean, if you're like me and you like to laugh at people who got shitty tattoos, then these are obviously the best!!!) Like this beauty!

I feel so bad for Colby Armstrong in that photo...I mean first you get moved from the Penguins to the Thrashers, then they make you wear that visual vomit...poor kid.
