Hey, the mail's back!

Posted from Doug Smith's Toronto Raptor... 20 hours ago
DailyHoops : Toronto Raptors

Welcome back to the weekly (weakly?) mail offerings. Lots here, some saved to parcel out next week but we’re always looking for more. Everyone have a lovely, sunny, safe long weekend, it’ll be full of grass-cutting and yard work and... (original story)

Miss me? Yeah, thought so. Anyway, after a couple days of catching up with the family and more hours of sleep than I had in about a week over there, it’s time to get back in the routine. Not sure... (original story)

So, it’s over. Or almost over. The ceremonies are about to start, I got a couple more to write for that pesky newspaper but, then? Then it’s over and somewhere in this vast land there are a bucketful of Tsing... (original story)

DailyHoops : Toronto Raptors

Jose Calderon was injured in Spain’s 72-59 victory over Croatia in the quarterfinals of the Olympics. Calderon suffered a slight tear of the adductor muscle in his right thigh, an injury that usually requires only 7-10 days of recovery. The problem is that if Calderon were to play again he...

Maybe a revision is in order

DailyHoops : Toronto Raptors

Can you imagine some dope picking Spain to win the Olympic men’s basketball gold medal? They gotta revoke that dude’s membership in whatever club it is that picks international tournaments. There's probably only one way Spain wins and here it... (original story)

Tougher at the beach than at BMX

Posted from Doug Smith's Toronto Raptor... 8 days ago
DailyHoops : Toronto Raptors

Now, I don’t want to denigrate BMX as an Olympic sport (actually, I do but I’ll wait a couple of paragraphs to do it) so I will just make this point as a matter of comparison: It was pouring rain... (original story)

DailyHoops : Toronto Raptors

Just got done chronicling the last of Canada’s softball team’s games, a tough 5-3 loss to the Aussies and it means I’ve likely seen my last softball game for, oh, I dunno, ever. With the sport out of London in... (original story)

Raptors at the Olympics

Posted from Raptors Den 10 days ago
DailyHoops : Toronto Raptors

Being that the Raptors are the NBA’s lone international team it truly is fitting that they are very well represented in this year’s Olympics. In fact, there are five Toronto connections in this year’s Olympics: three current players in Chris Bosh (USA), Jose Calderon (Spain) a... (original story)

A TV station to avoid

DailyHoops : Toronto Raptors

You see a lot of things in the main press centre at the Olympics, like people sleeping their chairs, heads on the desk at the end of a long day. There are people glued to the TVs that are everywhere... (original story)

Now, that's some kind of doubleheader

Posted from Doug Smith's Toronto Raptor... 11 days ago
DailyHoops : Toronto Raptors

There’s nothing like a Canada-Japan baseball-softball doubleheader, is there? That’s how I spent the last nine or so hours hours, watching the men spit up another one (1-0, can’t hit with men in scoring position, reminding me of the Evil... (original story)

Nothing special about this joint

Posted from Doug Smith's Toronto Raptor... 12 days ago
DailyHoops : Toronto Raptors

Oh, oh. Remember the Fish Takes Like Pork place from the other day? It had become, I’m told, something of a media-coaches hangout near the basketball gym. No more. Seems a group of grunts was in there dining – well,... (original story)

Don’t tell anybody, but even we bitter old grouches look forward to what’s referred to among some of us as “Olympic Moments” at bun-tosses like this. They’re the instances at Games where you smile at the emotion of the moment... (original story)

Rain drops are falling on our (well covered) heads

DailyHoops : Toronto Raptors

LUCAS OLENIUK/TORONTO STAR Friendly reminder at the ballpark. Hands off! There’s a story in today’s paper (Thursday, I believe) about the zaniness at the ballpark, where fans are discouraged from catching foul balls because, you know, they might hurt themselves... (original story)
