Happy Cinco De Mayo
whatwouldoakleydo.blogspot.com 5/5/2008 — If you needed an excuse to drink a post-work margarita or order takeout from that great Mexican place near your house then you'll be pleased to know today is Cinco de Mayo. Little known fact, today is NOT actually the Mexican independence day (which is in September), rather it is anniversary of a victory over French soldiers in the Battle of Puebla in 1862. This battle only slowed down the ...

May 5th - Happy Cinco De Mayo!
Many people mistakenly think that Cinco De Mayo is the celebration of Mexican Independence. However, “ 5th of May ” day actually commemorates the victory of Mexican forces over the French at the Battle of Puebla.
So…call up your closest amigos, pull out the hibachi, fajitas, a few Coronas, and a handful of ...

COMMENTS: Happy Cinco de Mayo! Los Mets beat the Diamondbacks yesterday, 5-2. Thanks, Mets! Today we root for you...to lose! And what better way for the Dodgers to start a new winning streak than against resident Mets headcase Perez? The Mets have lost four of his six starts ; his last outing lasted 1 2/3 innings and earned him the enmity ...

The Victoria Times
Happy Cinco De Mayo! Probably the holiday that residents of Victoria relate the least to.
Closer to Mexico, Dallas played the eighth longest game in NHL history, knocking off the Sharks to win their series. Oddly, it's only the third longest game in Stars history.
Just a little exercise in the standing of the various writers here. Steve? Linked to by SI? Ryan? Given negative votes on Ballhype.

What's up, everybody? It's been two weeks since I posted over here... I've been busy trying to get the new site ( Sports On My Mind ) off to a good start. I did a few posts over there on the NBA playoffs, specifically stuff on the Hawks-Celtics series, which went the full seven games, and was (as predicted) the most exciting series of the first round. Now I'm back, and I'll be ...

Happy Cinco de Mayo!
The Yanks will be bringing up Kei Igawa for a start in Detroit this upcoming weekend. From Phil and Kennedy to Rasner and (Ugh)awa. I like Rasner, but he isn’t the future. Rasner is 5-4, 4.06 in his Yankee career, and I wonder why some Yankee fans have been overly critical of him. Reality says you won’t have five aces in the rotation. Yet some fans feel as ...

The Cubs celebrate Cinco de Mayo by visiting Dusty Baker, Corey Patterson, Jerry Hairston Jr., Paul Bako, Kent Mercker and the rest of the 2004-05 Cubs. Before we visit our friends in the Reds blog world, Buster Olney has this to say about the state of the Redleg franchise: The Reds are 3-7 since changing general managers, and if you think that's a meaningless stat, than you would probably ...

Yesterday, was the annual introduction of Patriots first round pick Jerod Mayo. I’m not going to lie, this is a horrible, but hilarious picture.
First, Mayo does not look happy, at all. Rather he has a look that simply says, “bad-ass.” But that should be considered a good thing, I guess.
The part that makes this picture horrible is the way that Jerod is holding ...

Happy uno de Mayo, HondoNation! Let's hope it's better than 30 de Abril. Hondo paid the price for messing with Texas last night when the Royals lost to slash his disposable income to 130 leonards. Today, he'll stay put in the K.C. dugout - 10 units...
