SportsFilter: The Thursday Huddle:
A place to discuss the sports stories that aren't making news, share links that aren't quite front-page material, and diagram plays on your hand. Remember to count to five Mississippi before commenting in anger.
Great story. Liked the French version much better.
Gill = local multi-sport HS hero in my area, still remembered fondly. Didn't forget where he came from. Brought the Cup around for a visit a couple of years back.

Gill is about the only Canadien that I cannot detest. (Hey, it's a Boston thing, nothing personal) He is an honest hockey player whose game is defense first. Most Bruins fans will agree that he was a favorite during his days in Boston.

Cleveland (+14) at PITTSBURGH: I haven't given up on the Browns, but just like "The Cleveland Show," I don't expect much any more, either. Steelers 29, Browns 17.
