The turth on baseball:
Wow! Roy Halladay is 6-1 and has an era of 3.42… the bad new Matt Grieki is 6-1 with an era of .20. Poor Halladay will finish 2nd in Cy voting once again if the season continues to unfold on this same path. Every year there is a flash-in-the-pan pitcher who keeps Halladay from getting the hardware he so deserves. Maybe one day a WS ring will come his way and all the missed Cy’s will seem very unimportant.
The truth on Hockey:
Goaltending wins cups. If you want to build a winner you need to start in goal first. This has to be a priority for Burke. I love Vessa… but can you see him stealing a series from the Red Wings? I can’t. Thanks to JFJ the best goalie prospect the Leafs have had in the past 10 years is now in Boston and Pogge’s career is practically over. Who did we get back for Rask? oh yeah… Raycroft. Good one.
The truth on Bagels:
On Satuday I felt a little adventurous so I drove all the way from the Beaches to Little Israel (Bathurst & Steeles). I hit Moe Prancers deli for a Smoked Meat sandwich for lunch. Moe’s has been around for 60 years or some such and is Toronto’s answer to Schwartz’s in Montreal. Too bad the smoked meat was not as good as Schwartz’s. It was good… just not great. Then I decided to grab some bagels.. so I hit Bagel World and picked up a bakers dozen. Turns out they were not bagels at all… just round pieces of bread, :-(. What did I learn? It’s better to drive the 6 hours to Montreal if you want real bagels and a great smoked meat sandwich.
The truth about a posting called ‘Is science beleivable’:
When I first saw this posting, I was actually intrigued. It looked pretty lengthly so I figured some thought had actually been put into it. I was rather surprised that a university post grad article lacked all things that a University level paper requires:
1. Critical Thinking
2. Analysis

Just on the brontosaur alone I would have expected the following angles to be covered:
1. Why did O. C. Marsh go public with a different head?
2. What are the differences in scientific techniques and verification between 1874 and now?
3. Who discovered that the head was not correct?
4. Is the analogy of a dog with a cat’s correct? No, more like a German Shepperd and a Rottweiler.
5. Is the claim that it ‘never existed’ correct? All the bones existed… just that the head was slightly smaller. So it did exist… that creature did walk the earth.
6. Who produced this stamp? under who’s authority? Which group were the first to complain that it was not accurate?
The matter of the tooth is even worse…but I’ll leave that for another post.
End the end, there was little analysis done… and what’s the result? Propaganda. I expected so much more…
The truth for now.
