What Russell Wilson did is the stuff of legends, and I love watching him play almost as mush as watching Burrows bite Bruins baby fingers. If RW played for the Bears, Jets, Giants or Cowboys, ESPN would have specials dedicated to him. Since he's in Seattle, it'll take some Fox or ESPN 'expert' surprise picking the Hawks before RW gets some respect. ESPN and Fox show have so little respect for the game it makes it hard to watch.

With all that said, I could give two shits about NBA and MLB, and it's going to be a tough 4-5 months after March madness.

I don't think even the Cup playoffs would generate the same amount of hype as a regular season football game, NFL or even D-1 college, and I say that as a hockey fan.

The Pittsburgh Post Gazette reported yesterday that Sidney Crosby is in serious talks with a Swiss league to play over there. Apparently Russia (KHL) would've been too dangerous for him, as he's seen as a "target" by too many of those guys.

---- The Deadliest Game ----

During the House Select Committee on Assassinations (the Kennedy assassination), testimony given verified that Lee Oswald --- referred to as Lee Harvey Oswald, the “presidential assassin” --- was on the CIA’s payroll and was an FBI informant.

A slew of other seemingly contradictory facts emerged, but were never fully explored, as the plug was quickly pulled on the Select Committee’s investigation once it began focusing on the CIA and David Atlee Philips, Oswald’s handler.

Lee Oswald, former Russian linguist from the USMC (NSG) who had been recruited for the CIA’s “false defector” program, ended up playing the deadliest of deadly games: a deep cover agent within a deep cover.

As a deep cover agent for the CIA, Oswald was supposed to be ferreting out communist subversives --- but in reality he was spying on the CIA for their bosses --- the Kennedy administration, to uncover the exact location of the training facilities and personnel constituting the CIA’s unauthorized assassination team for Latin America representing the interests of the multinational corporations, Operation 40.

Oswald was in New Orleans to ferret that information out of organized crime operator, Jack Ruby, who had once worked as an investigator for the US Congress in Chicago, back before he had legally changed his name from Jakob Rubenstein to Jack Ruby, and when he reported to a congressional representative named Richard M. Nixon.

Ruby had ties to the Chicago mob dating to his youth in Chicago, a mob which wasn’t strictly ethnic in composition, but made up of Irish, Jewish, Polish and Sicilian individuals. Ruby was close friends with the owner of the land which had been leased to the Operation 40 crew, and evidently Oswald was successful as he tipped off the Secret Service and the White House to a possible assassination plot to take place during the presidential trip to Chicago, which was then called off at the last moment. (Oswald reported to a contact within the White House who reported to the president.)

Somehow there was a leak within either the US Secret Service or at the White House level, or both. (We now know that while President Kennedy had appointed many establishment types with links to the Rockefeller family, even JFK wasn’t aware of just how many were directly --- and financially --- connected to the Rockefeller family; at least over 45 of the top level appointees were Rockefeller people --- McCone, the CIA director who had replaced the fired Allen Dulles, not only had $1 million in Standard Oil stock, which he admitted to during his congressional interview, but had been a president of a shipping company which was indirectly owned by the Rockefellers through a series of holding companies --- even JFK hadn’t realized that. At Kennedy’s behest, McCone went about restructuring the CIA --- but what JFK didn’t realize was that McCone had hired Nelson Rockefeller’s assistant do the restructuring!)

George Joannides, who reported to David Atlee Philips, head of the CIA’s Western Hemisphere Operations (disinformation division), journeyed to New Orleans to solidify Oswald’s cover story as an “avowed Marxist,” thus setting him up as the patsy later in Dallas. Joannides arranged for Oswald to appear on a rightwing radio talk show for his public appearance to be later introduced into “evidence” of Oswald’s communist leanings. (Please see audio link below, but be advised that an author who comments the piece, Anthony Summers, is citing Oswald’s officially falsified CIA military record, not his actual military record, which was immediately transferred to the CIA upon his separation from the Marine Corps --- another of those nonsensical and non sequitur items which were never questioned in the Warren Commission’s “investigation” --- military records are routinely incorporated into one’s civil service file upon employment, for promotional and retirement purposes. Oswald’s voice appears after the 7-minute point.)

Oswald again found out about the secondary Dallas plot, after the Chicago hit had failed due to the trip cancellation, but this time Oswald found out too late and only tipped off the Dallas FBI office, a thoroughly compromised operation which had deleted his note outlining the situation. This came out during the House Select Committee investigation back in the late 1970s; evidently there was at least one honest individual in that Dallas FBI office who recalled this instance.

In fiction there is often the hero who is portrayed as reporting directly to the president, the president’s agent --- in reality, such an actual hero would forever be portrayed as the lone gunman.

Hitting someone upside the head with a pool cue is easy. Comedy is difficult.

Megan, if there was a NFL/NHL slog poll, you would be sad about the size of your NHL audience. MARK MY WORDS.
