One of my local sportscasts blurred part of N.Y. Jets RB Isaiah Crowell's TD celebration where he wiped his butt with the football. That's right: it was a back-crack block.

Why did TSN show so much of Conor McGregor’s latest pre-fight blathering? If I wanted to see swaggering Irish guys spouting off over a glass of whiskey, I’d go to my family get-togethers.

I for one have staunchly defended the Winnipeg Jets new alternate jersey. When people say it isn't even good enough for a beer league, I say it is.

People have been too hard on TSN’s Rod Black for calling the Labour Day clash of the sub-500 Argos and Tiger-Cats a "heavyweight tilt." Be nice. At least he knew who was playing.

SPORTS DEKE NOTE: 
I am on vacation. For the next few days I may not post a quip, or perhaps just one (as with the previous few days). I will try to have a pic of the hard-working ladies who cheer their teams.

Cincinnati first baseman Joey Votto claims his retirement plan is to drive a school bus. Chances are he’ll be more famous doing that than playing with the Reds.

Ex-racecar driver Danica Patrick is dating Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers. After years with NASCAR, this is the closest she's been to the leader of the Pack.

The International Tankard, a curling event held in BC two years and Washington one, took place at Seattle’s Granite Club last March. Working title for 2019: Sweepless in Seattle.
