Hall of Joe

Joe Sakic into the Hall of Fame. That's a no-brainer. Great player, great leader, even better guy. Will the old school Avs be in effect for the ceremony? Bob Hartley and his stories of being a glass plant worker? Patrick Bitter Roy will probably be there pissed off about something. Maybe Doug Gilour will show up to take another ass whuppin. Peter Forsberg will be there only if there is an abundance of model looking chicks in short skirts. Maybe Mike Ricci will be there just because everyone like him when he was the "goofy" one. Who won't be there? Joe's snowblower. Could've got a few more goals from old Super Joe if not for that fucker.

Wednesday Wasted

Since Wednesday was the slowest sports day of the year, some random - very random - sports thoughts going through the dome of the SG:

-Ubaldo Jimenez looks like he could be one of those Hispanic dudes who seemed to populate the point guard position on teams like Temple earlier in the decade.

-I'm rocking a pretty average beard right now. Best Denver sports beards ever? I'd say #2 would be former Donk OL Keith Bishop, who kind of had a Marvel Comics Hercules beard going. #1 is hands down Nugget PF Calvin Natt, who's beard made 1970's soul singer's beards jealous.

-Worst ever beard: Peter Forsberg during Av playoff runs. Rubber cement and hair clippings would've looked better.

-The new Pac 10 logo has been spotted on the field at Oregon's Autzen Stadium. Pretty cool, as it pays homage to the mountains and the ocean (how very transcendental of them.) However, was the inspiration the Police Athletic League and the Vancouver Whitecaps?

-I think the Rockies should add a "ball girl" squad? You know, the attractive females who stand on the dugouts during breaks in play and lead cheers, toss t-shirts, help run the on-field contests. A good chunk of MLB teams have them, and I can't wait to see what catchy name the Rox could come up with. The Twin Peaks? Dinger's Dongers? Geyser Girls?

-I'm wondering if the police had to be called out to the Pepsi Center for all the people clamoring for Al Harrington jersies.
