First, I’d like to let everyone know that the esteemed Rob Thomas has agreed to join the Hopp Stop’s ace editorial staff as a periodic correspondent. Very exciting news.
Second, here are some daily links
-Great, great, great news!! Joe Thiesmann is out and Ron Jaworski is in at Monday Night Football. Dr. Z (of Sports Illustrated) must be having a glass of wine somewhere to celebrate. If only they could get Dick Vermeil in the booth in place of Kornheiser, the world would be perfect.
-iLounge has an excellent review up for the Apple TV. It is much more thorough and nuanced than the Mossberg or Pogue reviews (the former due to lack of insight, the latter due to lack of space, IMO).
-The MGoBlogger Brian offers his take on the recent Michigan football dismissals. Minor bit of Arrington news therein.
-Good news for Stanford, bad news for Michigan: backup QB Jason Forcier is transferring. HT to MGoBlog.
-Chris Shelton is headed to Triple A to start the season. No room for him in the bigs with Casey starting and Thames playing some 1B as well this year.
