Hey look folks. No more pee troughs in the cheap seat sections of Dodger Stadium. Yeah!!! These also appear to be those waterless urinals that exist at the Staples Center. That alone will save thousands, if not hundreds of thousands, of gallons of water a year. My one complaint is that there should be a little ledge in front of the urinals for patrons to place their drink on. Pic via twitter @Dodgers.

"He's slowly learning English," Federowicz said this week (of Hyun-Jin Ryu).

- Via the Financial Post, AEG is no longer for sale and CEO Tim Leiweke is leaving the company. This is unfortunate. After all, I was just beginning to like the guy. I count him as one of the principle reasons the Kings won the Stanley Cup last season, and I will never forget his efforts.
