James Farrior and Joey Porter's Surfin' Safari

• If Pittsburgh had an ocean: Pro Bowl surfers might be the only people bummed about the game no longer being played in Hawaii. [ Mondesi's House]

• Spring is here?: You can tell that baseball fans are getting antsy for spring training, when they start blogging love letters to Bob Uecker. Split squads can't get here fast enough! [ Miller Park Drunk]

• Best Cubs Highlight Ever: Did I say they were "getting antsy"? Because I meant "losing their minds." [ Home Run Derby]

• Janitor!: High school kid shatters backboard. High school kid's future grandchildren shatter eardrums to avoid hearing the story again. [ Sox and Dawgs]

• I said "sweep the leg": No. 1 high school girls team in the country faces horrible, under-(wo)manned opponent, yet chooses not to humiliate them by 100 points. Kreese would be so disappointed. [ Examiner]
