Short sports comment #1: Wimbledon preferences -- I'd like Federer to get upset to make it really interesting. Wouldn't that guarantee somebody winning it for the first time with Nadal out? It'd be great if Murray made the final; the tension from the watching Brits would be great. On the women's side, I'd like to see Sharapova get back in good form and make a run. Why? Well, because she's Sharapova -- and I like comebacks.
Short sports comment #2: Lance Armstrong and his new girlfriend/betrothed Anna Hansen just had a baby -- the natural way. Everything's functional, apparently, in Lance's male system. Now, Anna seems like a genuine nice girl -- a social worker with kids with cancer. Now Lance, hmmm... young silverback tendencies. Sheryl Crow, Kate Hudson, Ashley Olsen (or was it Mary Kate? anyways, one of 'em) -- let's hope he can settle down after Le Tour and stop trying to build the harem.
Short sport comment #3: FINA really blew it with the swimsuit non-call.
What do they do with all the records likely to fall in Rome? Retroactively revoke them if they disapprove the suits worn to set them?
I used to think that swimming was such a pure sport. I still do. I hope FINA finds the path to purity.
Short sports comment #4: Darned Mickelson dashed my hopes again. The guy just does not know how to be a great story when he has a chance. Still, they were showing (and showing and showing and showing) the story about Payne Stewart. Coming in second that time; the fates were aligned.
