Day 597, Part Two...

  • Kevin Cheveldayoff has been cleared of sufficient wrongdoing by Gary Bettman in the Chicago Blackhawks sexual-assault case.
  • The owner of the Blackhawks wants the central figure in the case, then-video coach Brad Aldritch's name removed from Lord Stanley's Cup.  He would not be the first person to be technically removed:  The NHL ordered X'd out Basil Pocklington, the father of the owner of the Oilers in 1983 -- who had nothing to do with the team...  Others apparently have been as well.
  • It appears as if there will be a competing men's professional golf tour, with Greg Norman at the helm -- and he's stepping down from his self-named company so he can put his full efforts into this.  Hopes to start play some point next year.
  • Both SI and ESPN have had several prominent stories this week, condemning The Chop.
  • But don't look now, The Racist Fuck is showing up tomorrow night -- The Former Guy -- Jabba The Drumpf -- The Big Orange Idiot is attending Game 4.
  • Mikey Williams, the 11th ranked college prospect for this year's high-school senior class, has become the first high-schooler to sign a deal with an international shoe company -- Puma.
  • Why?  Five million followers on social media.  HOW?  and WHY????    
  • The female players of the NWSL appear satisfied at the league's efforts after the abuse allegations which nearly felled the league.
  • Disturbing report from last night's game:  DeAndre Hopkins was injured with a hamstring injury for the Cardinals.  His coach wanted him out of the game, Hopkins checked himself in.  He aggravated the injury, but then returned again.
