Around SBN: Jeff Sullivan's MLB Trade Deadline Primer

Lance Mackey Wins 2010 Iditarod

Lance Mackey, the world's fastest dog-sledding pot smoker throat cancer survivor, won his 4th consecutive Iditarod with a total time of 8 days, 23 hours, 59 minutes, and 9 seconds; just a shade under 9 whole days. Just a dude and his dogs for nine whole days. Gosh, when I say it like that, Snow Dogs doesn't sound like such a bad idea.

The next closest guy, Hans Gatt, finished roughly an hour after Mackey, and the third place finisher, Jeff King, finished more than an hour after that. After Mackey finished, I would've gone inside to get warm. 

Listen to Iditablog's Live 2010 Finish podcast to hear it as it happened. Find it here.

He’s unstoppable. I wonder if the discovery channel will repeat their show about the race.

I'm all about covering the spread and moneylines. I was building a house, I don't deserve this, deserves have nothing to do with it. Bang. "Unforgiven" I drink your milkshake. I drink it up! "There Will BE Blood"
