* Dino Ciccarelli and Cammi Granato— a woman!—were among those elected to the Hockey Hall of Fame yesterday. At least everyone agrees that the committee did a terrible job. [NHL/Toronto Star/Puck Daddy/ESPN]
* Tiger Woods and his lady problem have cost management agency IMG $4.6 million in lost fees. Guess they'll only have four penis-shaped ice sculptures at the Christmas party this year. Feel free to donate to the telethon anyway. [CNBC]
* A New Zealand high school gave breathalyzer tests to the spectators at a recent rugby match against their arch rivals. In other news, New Zealand high school rugby matches no longer have spectators. [NZ Hearld]
* The Wall Street Journal has an interesting look at the Lancaster JetHawks, a minor league team that averages more home runs per season than the rest of their league combined.
