ST. PAUL, MN (April 11, 2012) – Move over Usain Bolt the title of “World’s Fastest Human” is about to be claimed by a runner in St. Paul. The Saints Ninth Annual Running of the Pigs, in conjunction with HealthPartners and Scheels, is guaranteed to set a world record with the inaugural 0-K race that highlights the morning.
On Saturday, April 21 the Saints will host a race perfect for an ultra marathon runner or couch potato. The 0-K race is the only competition in the world where everyone is on a level playing field. “Runners” in the 0-K receive a special t-shirt that says, “Zer0K World Record Holder,” a cold beverage following their grueling race, a post-race meal and a ticket to a future Saints game.
“I don’t understand (blackouts) myself, I get blacked out from some games. Right now,I don’t know what to do about it. We’ll figure it out. I hear more about people who can’t get the games, and, yes, I’ve already told our people we have to do something about it.”
Annual re-post of Selig’s promise - July 11th, 2006
With about 8 min left in the 4th quarter last night, some guy handed us 4 courtside tickets. It’s a whole different ball game down there.

I did this last season, and for some reason, it’s taken me until August to do an update. You can see both the 2010 and 2011 versions here:

What a perfect day for a baseball game (a 10 run rule shortened baseball game, but a game none the less).
“
At some point you have to admire Bud Selig. No, really. You do. Because after all these years, with the world still telling him he’s wrong about the way he runs his All-Star Game and without a shred of compelling evidence in his defense, Selig just sits there and takes it. Doesn’t care how stupid he looks.
It’s impressive, really.
That kind of self-confidence, delusional as it may be, is remarkable. We should all go through life as tunnel-visioned as Selig, not hearing anything being said or reading anything being written about us. He’s kind of like the religious zealots that walk through my neighborhood, knocking on doors, waving their literature and having our doors slammed in their faces.
Still they come back. Why? Because they’re convinced they’re right, and there is peace in such conviction. The rest of the world thinks they’re spooky and possibly insane — but here they come again, walking up my driveway.
Impressive, really.
