Flu Blogging

I have risen from my NyQuil induced slumber for... links!
  • What's the big idea, Arte? Rob has the details on Arte hinting at a possible move in retaliation to the city's continuing legal pursuits (go fuck yourself Arte), and the possibility of an Angels TV Network. Wouldn't a TV network sort of defeat the stated purpose of the name change?

  • More on the Weaver negotiations from Rich Lederer:
    Jered Weaver is seeking a package in the $10-million range; the Angels would prefer to pay something closer to $5 million.
    I don't know exactly what is meant by "prefer to pay something closer to $5 million". Is that just wishful thinking, or are the Angels holding fast at that number? If that is the current state of the negotiations, then I don't see a whole lot of reason for hope.

  • NHL season saved? I guess I should start boning-up on the Ducks. Can you believe that at one point I could reel-off the name of every last Duck’s player? At this point I doubt I could name more than five or six.

  • Andrew Bolt, of Australia’s Herald Sun, gives a vicious Fisking to The Age's "10 Reasons to Start Worrying [About Global Warming] Now"

    A major newspaper Fisking another major newspaper? Why don't we get more of this in America?
