2007-11-06 12:50  Blue Plate Special
It was another one of those Uni Watch red-alert moments last night, as about a dozen readers e-mailed me all at once and another half-dozen or so posted all at once in the comments section. The cause Jason Strudwick of the Rangers got in a fight and his nameplate came loose during the fisticuffs, revealing some nasty-looking adhesive residue on the underside. All of which is very entertaining. But here's my question: Since when have the Rangers been using nameplates I always thought they used di …

2007-11-02 13:48  In Which Your Humble Narrator Misses the Biggest Story of the Year
Yesterday afternoon at about 5:30 I got on an airplane. After I landed (never mind where), I went straight to a live theater performance thingie. After that I mingled with friends for a bit. It wasn't until about 1:30 a.m. that I got to my host's house. I was reeeaaaaaally tired (for reasons not worth getting into, I hadn't slept the night before, plus I'm fighting a respiratory infection), and my plan was to crash without even bothering to check my e-mail. But then I thought, "Oh, what the hell …

2007-11-01 11:43  And Look, There's a Young Marge Schott in the Front Row
A couple of Sunday nights ago at about 10 p.m., someone posted a comment that read, "Women's Nazi Hockey Team." It linked to the photo shown at right (here's a larger view ). Since Sunday night is a low-traffic period for the site, nobody responded and the whole thing passed unnoticed. Coupla things here: First of all, this is not a Nazi team. In fact, this is an Edmonton team called the Swastikas, which played in 1916 - four years before the National Socialist German Workers Party (i.e., the Na …

New ESPN column today - here's the link. Meanwhile: For months now people have been telling me to pick up a copy of The Football Book, part of a series of coffee table books produced by Sports Illustrated. Last week I finally got around to getting a copy, and sure enough, it's loaded with great uni-related photos. The only problem is that the book is too big to fit in my scanner, so I had to take photos of the pages. Here's a sampling: As you'd expect, there are lots of great helmet photos. Amon …

2007-10-29 12:23  Monday Morning Uni Watch
It's good to see that all the finest aspects of pro football were on display yesterday in London, where the Giants and Dolphins sloshed around in the mud for three hours before adjourning for fish and chips. But Mark Roberts (or, as the wire service captions identified him, "serial streaker Mark Roberts") gave us plenty of Uni Watch fodder, even with his abbreviated attire. Consider: NFL officials wear socks with two white stripes, but college and high school zebras wear socks with Northwestern …

The Wall Street Journal has a front page story today about the lack of transparency in securities. Remember, one of the great accomplishments of the market is to provide accurate information to allow for something akin to perfect efficiency. Milton Friedman would tell us that there will be inefficient speculators, but the market will ruthlessly purged them, leaving only the great ones who can guide the economy efficiently. Financialization and securitization was supposed to distribute risk even …

One of the more amusing things in politics would have to be when the psychological warriors and political meme managers are allowed to play with the desktop publishing software for government ad campaigns. We might all remember back to when the ALP extracted from their focus groups (probably like teeth) the killer line "Howard is a clever politician". What made this line so effective was that it was always framed in such a way that it simply gave voters a blank canvas from which to paint a pictu …
