And from the sports desk

If you like sports at all, you must read:

The Brushback - A.L. Preview.

Examples:

(For the Red Sox):

Strength:
Defense. The Red Sox have gold glove winner Mike Lowell at third base, tiny person Alex Gonzalez at short, Mark Loretta at second base, and Kevin Youkilis at first base platooning with JT Snow. Last year they lost a lot of close games with shoddy defense. This year they’ve chosen to lose those games with shoddy offense.

(For the Twins):

Strength:
Torii Hunter is one of the games best centerfielders. Unfortunately he has fragile girl ankles that snap like twigs whenever he tries to make a catch. He would be wise to get them replaced now while he still has a few years left.

"If you like sports at all, you must read...."

Actually, that's not true. This is a must read, not the above piece.

Oh, ok. But I laughed a lot at the former, too.

I have no idea who the U.S.S. Mariner is, but he clearly has way too much free time.

The Air Italia lounge at Kennedy Airport is fine. That's as far as I've gotten.
