SportsFilter: The Friday 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.
This won't mean much to those who haven't been a resident of the Northeast US in the last 25 years and/or didn't follow the 1988 Presidential election.
One of my grown kids rescued a stray male kitten in the depths of winter who has now somehow ended up with us for the time being and is growing into a fine critter. I needed to come up with a name for him but he wasn't doing anything remarkable that "told" us what his name should be.
So I finally decided that in honor of Belgium's triumphant march into the World Cup Round of 16, I would name him Kitty Lukaku.
(I feel a special connection to the Belgians because like that squad, when you have a young male cat in the household, you have more than one Hazard to account for.)
