Jim Todd was part of a Clippers team that lost 17 in a row off the top of the lockout-reduced 98-99 season. Now he's an assistant with the Raptors, poor man, insisting to Dave Feschuk that this is much better. Sure Jim. If you say so.
A-Rod wins the American League MVP -- Rich Griffin preferred David Ortiz -- while free agent B.J. Ryan flies in for a quick Toronto visit and, the way Geoff Baker tells it, crosses the Blue Jays off his Christmas list.
And an interesting read here, via the Sports Pontiff: Japanese golfer Jumbo Ozaki has gone bankrupt, without a win in three years and his side business gone dry in a country more interested in the women's side of the game:
"Once, we could expect to sell 20,000 drivers of the same sort used by a male pro," said a golf equipment industry representative, "but recently, the driver that Miyazato uses — the V-iQ — has become a blockbuster, selling hundreds of thousands. Manufacturers are turning to women golfers to endorse their products and the men are being squeezed out."
