It's that time of the week again. Yes, they're still letting me write a weekly column, so sorry to disappoint all of the Tim Kidera proponents out there who support his disappointingly weak ad hominem attacks. What's that? It's Tom Kidera, not Tim? Oh well. I think I've given him enough ink already, so I'll just leave little Timmy alone and let him make more hard-guy blunt references.

WOE is back with yet another installment of the finest sports journalism this side of the Connecticut River. So buckle up, because this past weekend in sports was as ridiculous as Dartmouth's current keg policy.

Sports fans -- We have arrived. These are the golden weeks of sport: the World Series, the NFL season hitting full stride, the NHL underway and the NBA not far off in the future. It's that mystical time in the fall when the heavens align and the world of sport permeates every mind in America. In World Series news, thanks to another brilliant post-season performance by Kenny Rogers and the pine tar on his left hand, the Detroit Tigers have tied the series at one game apiece.

Before I begin, let me first apologize to all my loyal readers out there for my absence last week. Due to slight incapacitation, I was unable to turn in my usual gem. But rest assured that I will do my best to keep churning out the best Tuesday sports column in The Dartmouth. Why watch it on Sunday when you can just read about it on Tuesday? Okay, maybe not.

Well, week four of the NFL season has already passed us by and predictably the few teams that are still undefeated are being proclaimed as Super Bowl locks by ESPN expert analysts. However, we are merely in week two of "Walking on Eggshells," so I'll try my best to follow up last week's gem with something that is at least more readable than Tom Kidera's "Dudes on Parade" -- a title that sounds more like a raunchier version of "Queer Eye for the Straight Guy" than a column in the Dartmouth Mirror.

Phew. What a weekend. Dartmouth football managed to score two touchdowns and still not cover a 35-point spread. Despite boasting the three best golfers in the world in Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson and Jim Furyk, the United States still managed to get clobbered for the third consecutive Ryder Cup. And for the second week in a row, the New York Giants still haven't figured out that football games are not only played in the fourth quarter, but in the first three as well.

Being the frenzied sports junkie that I am, I was staring into my television screen late Sunday night watching the White Sox/ Twins game on ESPN, even though it required me to conscientiously block out the seemingly endless stream of inane Joe Morgan comments, when something special happened: a triple play.

Neither the Big Green (7-9-2, 6-5-1 ECACHL) nor the Wildcats (12-7-4) could seem to find an offensive groove as the puck bounced from one end of the rink to the other in the opening minutes of play. With an early UNH penalty with 14:50 left to go in the first period, the Big Green's power play -- ranked first in the ECACHL and sixth nationally -- took to the ice in hopes of drawing first blood. The highly-touted power play, however, continued Dartmouth's offensive woes in the early goings and produced only one shot on goal during the two-minute advantage, leaving the scoreboard reading 0-0.

The college basketball season is well under way and conference play has proven to be the loose strand that has unraveled more than a few preseason top 25 teams. Boston College, once ranked as high as No. 6 in the nation, has gone 0-2 in the Atlantic Coast Conference thus far. The Eagles have lost heartbreakers to ACC foes Maryland and Georgia Tech by two points each, mostly due to the fact that the team's free throw percentage can't even measure up to Jared Dudley's waist size.

ESPN has some of the best sportswriters on the planet working for them. Heck, Peter Gammons, their lead baseball analyst, was recently inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame. Take a moment to let that sink in the Hall of Fame.

After testifying against the use of steroids in professional sports in front of a congressional committee, Baltimore Orioles's slugger Rafael Palmeiro failed a routine drug test. Although Palmeiro claimed complete innocence, he was suspended from the Major League Baseball on Aug. 1. Following the suspension, Dartmouth sports reporters go head-to-head to debate whether or not Palmeiro should be allowed to return to the Orioles' dugout.

Well, after all the rumors and big-time franchise names were thrown around like bags of ballpark peanuts up until mere hours before Major League Baseball's Trade Deadline this past Sunday at 4 p.m., the big story turned out to be Peter Gammons getting inducted into the Hall of Fame. The fact that the usual frenzy that encompasses Deadline Day was overshadowed by Hall of Fame inductions should be a telltale sign of unexciting stagnancy to even the layman.

July will soon give way to August, the All-Star break is history and Major League Baseball is three series deep into the second half of the season. Fans across the nation are starting to hunker down in front of their televisions and radios in anticipation of what should prove to be another exciting second session of baseball, and like the head of an ice-cold ballpark beer, the real-life drama that is the American League East has predictably risen to the top of baseball discussions.
