In today's Freep, the Little Fella takes Detroit sports fans to task for not filling up the Joe last night. Before I spend one more word on how good our hockey team played Thursday night, I have to say how bad it looked to see so many empty seats at Joe Louis Arena. Cheaper seats. Expensive seats. Empty clusters. Half-empty rows. Uh, Mitch. During the playoffs, THERE ARE NO CHEAPER SEATS! Just less...

I had a feeling it was coming. As I mentioned in the things to look for post earlier today, the Hornets had an abysmal night shooting from deep(18%), the Spurs were hitting their deep shots at a nice clip(44%). That - and some missed free throws - was the difference in the game in the end. Otherwise the Hornets were essentially even in turnovers(even), fouls(-1), free-throws(even), rebounding(-2)...

The Jays stormed back to tie the game in the bottom of the 9th against the resurgent Troy Pervical, only to see an Alex Rios leadoff triple in the bottom of the 10th go uncashed. A sac fly from Bossman Junior and a Dioner Navarro grand slam later and that was all she wrote. Those with a need to see the gruesome details can do so, here . It takes a certain skill to not be able to score a runner on third...
