The Chris Benoit Murder-Suicide has a mysterious bend as a wikipedia author possibly revealed the incident prior to police visiting the Benoit home. The incident casts a shadow over the performance of one of WWE most well known wrestlers. Do we adjust in our opinions of the wrestler due to the flaws of the man? Should we pity someone who had obvious mental issues, or condemn his memory.

The baseball season is two weeks in and some strange things have already happened. An entire series in Cleveland was SNOWED OUT and the Mariners have played all of five games where most teams are in the 9 or 10 games-played range. Two of those Seattle games were started by a man-child who goes by the name of King Felix. This year he is earning that crown. (Thread Archiving King Felix starts)

The Baseball board features a Game of the Day thread with a predictions contest for those that want to see how they compare. It is early in the season but with several games going in unexpected directions it has some excitement. Also on the top of everyone’s mind are the increasing number of players and team’s wearing #42 in tribute to Jackie Robinson. Torii Hunter thinks this tribute has gone too far, what do you think? Myself, I think that the lack of system has diminished the impact of the tribute as things seem rather haphazard for a league with centralized control of this situation.

In non-baseball news, the Stanley Cup playoffs have started for our fans of the puck and stick sport. Roundball is currently dominated by the college kids declaring for early entry into the draft, but the playoffs are just a couple of short weeks away. The gridiron news has been dominated by two players with troubled histories getting suspensions of 8 games and a full season. Wrestling fans tell me that Hulk-o-mania just keeps on going, like a certain bunny. The Premiership proved this week that it is the best soccer/football league in the world right now.

Baseball is in for a marathon season with dozens of twists in the hole, doubleplay’s turned, more complete games, there is no wonder why many consider it the National Pasttime, and now 16 nations are represented in the Majors. Here’s to seeing history made and Hall of Fame careers develop. Let’s raise a glass to those that get a cup of coffee, and a toast for those that have brought us 42 years of joy (Moyer v Glavine).
