WiiPlayer optimizes iPlayer for Wii
via Nintendo Wii Fanboy by Chris Greenhough on June 06, 2008
Filed under: NewsIt still puzzles us that the BBC was so keen to make its (admittedly excellent and very popular) iPlayer catch-up service compatible with the Wii. Are there really that many Wii owners out there with internet-ready PCs who would opt to use the service on the Wii's slightly clunky Opera browser?

Jerry Crawford went nine days without a workplace injury
via Big League Stew - MLB - Yahoo! Sports by (author unknown) on June 04, 2008
I'm just going to go out on a limb here and say that umpire Jerry Crawford has probably seen better 10-day stretches during his long career. On May 25, he was hit in the head by Carlos Lee's backswing on a foul ball and bled profusely (left) before being taken to the hospital for a CAT scan. Then, after Wednesday night's Orioles-Twins game, Crawford was struck in the head (right) by...
