The Jets officially introduced Brett Favre at a press conference in Cleveland yesterday, marking a joyous day for Jets fans everywhere.  Evidently not so joyous for Favre though, whose palpable discomfort and lack of enthusiasm is reminiscent of being forced to take a picture with the turd-ugly Christmas sweater you just got from your Nana.

The opening ceremonies for the 2008 Beijing Olympics kicked off with a massive display including a stunning myriad of fireworks, flashing lights, and lasers.  Everyone in attendance is said to be in stable condition and recovering nicely from their seizures.

The Mets bullpen managed to blow yet another Johan Santana win, giving up his 3-1 lead in the eigth inning before being bailed out by a walk-off home run by David Wright in the ninth.  Frankly, I’m considering reporting these guys to OTL or something.  This hazing has gotten out of hand.  We get the point, “screw the new guy.”  But blowing every last shot he has at a win?  That’s just cruel.  Spank him with a giant paddle or waterboard him or something, but not this…. not this.

Mike Mussina notched his league leading 15th win of the season on Thursday, blanking the Rangers and leading the Yankees to a 3-0 victory.  With Ian Kennedy (whose style has been compared to a young Mike Mussina) set to make his return today in place of the injured Joba Chamberlain, I’ll offer a suggestion to quell Yankee worries stemming from Kennedy’s dismal early season starts;  Just throw his jersey on Moose and see how many innings you can get out of him before someone notices.
