As a recent (read since 1977) Rangers fan, it will be sad to see Yu Darvish battling against the Mets tonight, but now he gets to work on his batting in the NL. As a lifelong Dodgers fan, I am happy though. And Vin Scully is STILL the only voice of the Dodgers.

NFL

My Dallas Cowboys won last night, 20-18, and my family is happy to have gridiron on the menu. I wish the NFL would finish up their investigation into E. Elliott's shenanigans. Tsk! Give him a suspension for a game or two to send a message. End of story.

NHL

Hats off to Mike Fisher, the Predators player who retired the other day. Best wishes to you in your renewed purpose off the ice.

Let the Games Begin!

The opening ceremony for the 2016 Rio Olympics begins tonight. I confess I will probably not be watching too much of it. I am disappointed with the conditions for the citizens living in squalor and the resulting deplorable conditions for the athletes who must compete in the polluted waters of the Guanabara Bay. Tsk.

A Little Bit of Football

Backup QB Kellen Moore broke his leg, so he's not able to replace Romo as QB. I fear for Tony Romo's health on the field. After breaking his clavicle twice last season, I will hold my breath every time he meets the turf on his back. Owner and GM Jerry Jones is smart about marketing the team; however, he needs to make sure they have another QB in the stable just in case. Tsk.

Wednesday Wrap-Up - Here is hoping that Yoenis Céspedes is able to rest that leg and run full speed again one day soon. I am not sure of what to make of Yasiel Puig being bumped down to the minors. Perhaps it is for the best, and speaking of the Dodgers, ace and local Highland Park HS grad Clayton Kershaw should not be seen until August 27. Bad news for the boys in southern California.
