Today Officially Begins The Black Hole Of Sports

For people who believe Hockey is for playing rather than watching, and that the NBA isn't worth paying any attention to until June, and that college basketball is now in pre-season for the Big Dance in March, one can only create one's own entertainment.


So, with the mere promise of a "round on me," I encouraged a few barflies to get out into the park and make the biggest snowball on record.

And I'm sure you've figured out by now that these guy were all recruited from the establishment where Brian Cashman was celebrity bartender for the day.

As an aside; is it me, or has Cashman lost his mind?

Anyway, I am in deep background holding a can of blue paint and a paper outline of the interlocking NY of the Yankees.

I will soon add the world famous logo to the snowball, and then call in the Guinness folks to photograph, weigh and play with this ball, in anticipation of landing a world record.

The completed ball will then be sent to the laboratory in Arizona where Ted Williams' frozen head rests in state.

It is really a slow week for Yankee fans.

Gives us a chance to think about the big Pro Bowl game coming up Sunday!

I sure wouldn't want to miss that one.

Especially with all the good players from the Giants.

How do the all pros from the Steelers and Packers get in the game?
