• Forty-year-old Mike Modano will sign a one year deal with the Red Wings. That sounds old, until you remember that Zetterberg's and Franzen's contracts expect us to believe they'll play until their mid-60s.
•A Rays win and Yankees loss means Tampa Bay moves into a tie for first place in the AL East. Meanwhile, Baltimore is 34 games back with 57 games to play. Parity!(?)
•Indians uberprospect Carlos Santana suffered a scary-looking knee injury in a home plate collision, and will have an MRI today. It'd be a shame if he suffered a serious injury, just three years before being traded to a contending team.
•First day of practice in pads, and already the Cardinals are fighting each other. Good thing there's a man of god to show them all their earthly quarrels are ultimately meaningless in the face of...oh wait, it's Leinart now.
• The Big Ten expects to have a title game as early as next year, when Nebraska makes 12. This has literally no effect on the length of Michigan's season.
