   The Haka is one of the, if not the, most intimidating pre-game rituals in all of sports. It’s magnificent and frightening all at the same time. Imagine seeing the late, great, Jonah Lomu leading the line.

   I’m a big Pele fan, but Diego Armando Maradona just shades him.

   To you Reverend, and others, yes. To some religious “leaders”, not so much. I’ll leave the low hanging fruit to others.

   I liked the song the first time it came out. once it was in the movie, it became overplayed. It has now earned a place in automatic channel change/ I have the satellite radio subscription and just move to another channel.

   By the way, Brazilian Ronaldo is the better Ronaldo.

   I dine out twice a week and am witness to men peeing, then just walking out of the mens room. Believe me, I’ve been tempted to see where they are sitting, then walk over and ask them why they didn’t wash their hands.

   When I was in the foodservice industry ( company that ran a university dining service) we had a company inspector who would visit and inspect the facility. One thing he would do was, after washing his hands, use the paper towel to open the door. I followed his lead and still do this when I’m at a restaurant.

    The “Not allowed to bunt if a pitcher is throwing a no-no” is silly. If the score is 1-0, then your first job is to get on base. Period. A 10-0 game ? Still, your job is to get a hit.
