Hey sports fans.  What a weekend, eh?

1) Thank you Lord for extending the men's singles match yesterday at Wimbledon long enough for those of us on the west coast who attend the late service to get home in time to witness one of the greatest moments in tennis history.  Amen.

2) P.S, thank you Lord for protecting pit crew #9 at Watkins Glen yesterday from Danica Patrick who pulled a Hillary Clinton in pit lane.  Amen.

My main point in posting the

My main point in posting the Danica Patrick screw up is that you won't find coverage of this exciting, shocking racing moment from Sunday anywhere in the mainstream press.  I think that's a little bit odd, don't you?  I mean a female Indy driver is pretty interesting news to begin with, and I've got no problem with her being out there w/ the boys.  'Lord knows the "boys" had plenty of accidents Sunday too.

Those stories are all over the news this week.

It's fairly obvious that ABC / ESPN has suppressed the video and story about Ms. Patrick's mistake.  Even during live coverage Sunday, it was quickly, weirdly "forgotten."

Since then, there are about 3 conflicting "quotes" supposedly from Danica with completely conflicting explanations for how it really happened.  It was pretty obvious it was her fault, no matter what story she's telling.

I liked Tony Kanaan's response to her excuse that her tires lost traction on the yellow paint line.  He said, "that line's been there all day."
