Congrats to the Astros, Mollo's observations on Prince

Differing with Radio and TV sports commentator Jim Rome, I must say, once again, that not playing Lidge was the right decision. I'll accept the analysis that Lidge needed rest and was played four nights in a row, but given so, even with the need for Lidge to feel recovered from the blow, how would playing him without the break he needs bring Lidge to greater heights. In truth all it would do is expose him to an eager and capable Cardinal team. Giving him the extended break and allowing him to recover over a longer period of time could make the difference in a real recovery and a stay of execution.

Over at onlythreesofar.blogspot.com, mollo notes Princes hip replacement, but linking to the article one finds:

And, in a freak accident this summer, David Bowie was temporarily blinded when a
lollipop hit him in the eye during a concert in Oslo. The stick became wedged
between his left eyelid and eyeball - which he damaged as a child in a fight at
school - and had to be removed by a roadie.

Removed by a roadie? Gives new meaning to the phrase "eye candy."

Sorry mollo, that's funnier than Prince.
