Tom:  You’re from the Toronto area, if I recall correctly.  Do you know the arena?

I can’t skate, but if I were playing any game, and there was a flash crowd, that would be so cool!

I’m a seamhead from way back, but hockey, and hockey people, are the coolest thing in sports.

I thought this was a baseball blog? A fun video but not quite original. This was done years ago for little leaguers.

This is actually not a baseball blog.

Ha, I knew my joke might be misinterpreted but the point was it’s been done before and with more appealing participants and they’re baseball players. I know you cover other sports as well but you did name the website “THE BOOK--Playing The Percentages In Baseball”.

I believe The Wall Street Journal has a sports section, doesn’t it?

And The New York Times covers events outside of New York?

Does USA Today cover happenings around the world that are irrelevant to USA?

Don’t limit yourself to titles…

I’m glad that they got to play in front of many more enthusiastic fans than usual, that’s cool.  But I would not call this a flash mob, too much was set up in advance.
