So now we know it isn’t a hockey cup bomb
A funny thing happened on the way to the Stanley Cup final this week. They x-rayed the Stanley Cup. You know, just to make sure it wasn’t a hockey cup bomb. It is now history that the Chicago Blackhawks won this treasured sports relic Monday night for the first time since 1938 on home ice. But that’s not weird. How about the New York Mets. They must have been jinxed when their play-by-play guy Ron Darling did a quick whip around through the roof at Rogers Stadium and spotted the Sky Needle. Yes, it’s hilarious. But then, the Blue Jays have had incoherent broadcasters too. The Mets lost 8 to 0. One writer said they neglected to show up. More likely they got hurt by the Sky Needle. And then we have the lookalike stakes of a lifetime. Below on the left is Robert Downey Junior next to a Calgary man, Steve Venegas. This is photo-shopped for clothes and hair but the news agency swears that the faces were not altered.
