No welcome mat: Warren Cromartie, the former Montreal Expos outfielder who finished his career as a fan-favorite in Japan, is returning to Japan this weekend. He's 53 now and will not be playing baseball, but he will be ... wrestling. No, not sumo wrestling. After all, Cromartie stood 6-0 and weighed 192 when last seen as a baseball player. This pro wrestling event is called Hustle Aid. Our good friends at The Associated Press report that, as part of a tag-team match, he will face an opponent, Tiger Jeet Singh, 63, who walks around with a sword in his mouth, says he wants to hurt Cromartie and is not amused by Cromartie's participation in a sport he calls "a dangerous game." We are left to wonder if Singh took the sword out of his mouth before he said that.

Not an Olympic moment: An animated display of London's jigsaw-style 2012 Olympics logo, which has drawn, to put it mildly, an unfavorable public response, was removed from an official Web site the other day after concern it could trigger epileptic seizures. We can't make these things up. Epilepsy Action, a British health charity, said 10 people had complained about the animation and some had seizures from watching images depicting a diver plunging into a pool. The AP reports this obligatory quote from London's Design Museum founder, Stephen Bayley, who said the logo was "a puerile mess, an artistic flop and a commercial scandal." We are pretty sure we have used those previous 10 words in that order before.

Bite is worse than bark: Bjorn Borg was severely bitten in the leg by a German shepherd while trying to stop a dogfight, forcing the former Swedish tennis great to withdraw from his first grass-court match in 26 years. The five-time Wimbledon champ was bitten in his right leg when he tried to pull the dog away from his golden retriever at his home in Sweden. The AP reports that he was scheduled to play 1987 Wimbledon champ Pat Cash in an exhibition at the Liverpool International in England this week, marking his first grass-court singles match since losing to John McEnroe in the 1981 Wimbledon final. Richard Krajicek will replace Borg, assuming no dog bites him between now and then.
