Just in case anyone missed the highlight on ESPN….

I’m not sure if this is a new feature in the MLB At Bat 2010 app for the iPhone but you can now play audio in the background and close the MLB At Bat app.

Booo Canada, Yay USA.  I guess?  Hockey is so screwed.  Apparently Sid “The Kid” was booed last night in his own arena when being introduced as a gold medalist in the Olympics. 

Ryan Miller?  He was given a lions roar of a cheer by the visiting crowd?  Patriotism or hockey slowly being flushed down the toilet?

Some Penguins fans admittedly were conflicted, enthused by the United States’ successful tournament — the Americans were unbeaten before losing to Canada — but too loyal to Crosby to boo the player who led Pittsburgh to the Stanley Cup last spring. “I’ll leave it up to other people to decide, but for me it was a pretty proud moment,” Crosby said. “Being in Canada, playing hockey growing up as a kid and dreaming of playing for your country, then having it work out that way, it’s still pretty amazing to think about.” There was a mixed reaction when a replay of Crosby’s game-winning goal was shown on the Mellon Arena scoreboard, with some cheering but also audible booing. Later in the game, when the replay was shown again during a break in play, there were noticeably more boos than cheers.

Hearing from one of my buddies that’s in the know (he is legit and called the Pat White pick last year as well Terrell Owens signing with Bills) that the rumors of the Dolphins going hard after Karlos Dansby are true. And while the Dolphins seem to be willing to pay the price - no one thinks the Dolphins will go as far as making him the highest-paid linebacker (whereas another team - the Giants most likely - might go that far). It also looks like Anquan Boldin will most likely get traded this offseason. The Cardinals and him are going to give a contract extension one more shot and if that doesn’t work out look for him to be moved. The asking price will likely start at a 2nd rounder and the likeliest suitor is Baltimore and then the Dolphins.
