Patrick O 'Sullivan is one of the newest Edmonton Oilers. I was happy to see the trade at the deadline that brought him and Ales Kotalik to Edmonton. I hope they both sign good deals and have good 09-10 seasons with the Oilers. Kotalik is less likely to stay due to free agency but that is a post for another time (probably sometime around September, lol).
I read this shocking story and it made me think about a bunch of things. Some people are just crazy. Some people are so blinded by their irrational wants/needs/desires that they fail to see the detriment they cause to those around them. Patrick's father John is a good example of this. He didn't make it as a pro himself so he forced it upon his son to live out his personal dream. Here is a link to the original article I first read.

The other amazing story is that of NBA center/PF Chris "birdman" Andersen.
Not only is he the reigning undisputed champion of the "Most Deplorable Dunk Contest Contestant", he was also essentially homeless and lived in a barn. So that's pretty cool.
I recommend checking out this link. It's a great read: Birdman Andersen
