FanHouse: Fri. AM '18 Flavors of Hockey Fight' Edition

If you want to look esoterically knowledgable before the weekend, I recommend scrolling through the 18 categories of the 2006-07 hockeyfight.com Awards and going through our own College Eye for the NFL Guy series before the draft.

If you want the blog fun, read on:

• Some of the guys who don't go to the NFL draft go to Iraq.
• MDS was giving Michael Vick a break on his trespassing fine when the Humane Society mentioned they had been hearing about Vick's alleged dog fighting "for some time." Trouble.
• From Thorne to the camera to the blogs to Boston.com, this is how a story about a sock went kaboom.
• Battle of the NBA commentators: It's Ian Eagle doing about as much of the humpty hump as you can while remaining seated versus Dan Majerle's amazing trick shots.
• J.R. Smith: This word 'euro,' I do not think it means what you think it means.
• Wait: BALCO's founder is back in business already? And Bonds is still buying his stuff?
• "Bonds doesn't deserve to be the home run king!" "That's possible sir, but this is still not your kitchen."
• In NASCAR, 'Cars driving under cars' are the luckiest cars in the world.
• Russian NHL players need to realize that when the complain back home, people will hear about it in North America.
