This and that

• Andy Kennedy arrest: Here's our story. Here's ESPN's story about it. The Jackson (MS) Clarion-Ledger has a PDF of the arrest report. And their version of the story is worth reading, as it has the general manager of the Lodge Bar saying they didn't get kicked out, as our report and others suggest. And they report that the "others" Kennedy was trying to get into the cab (when the cab driver refused because there were too many people) were assistant coaches Michael White, Owen Miller and Torrey Ward. Some good quotes from Andy Kennedy's brother there too.

Interesting item from John Fay about Rocco Baldelli and his "misdiagnosis." Jocketty sounds like he's pretty interested, especially since he doesn't appear to be making progress with Juan Rivera's agent.

• Bengals.com has a strong update about how the receivers are talking about how impressed they are with Carson's arm right now.

• The way I see it, as Braylon Edwards insists on continuing to run his mouth this week, it can only help the Bengals. All of the Bill Cowher speculation can't hurt either.

• IndyStar.com has a story about Eric Gordon dropping a bomb that drug use wrecked IU's season.

• I've seen some nice tributes to Mike Kahn, a sports writer who spent part of his childhood in Cincinnati and worked for the Enquirer, who lost his battle with cancer. Here's one that was posted on theolympian.com, and another from his most recent employer, FOXSports.com.

• Non-local link of interest: Again, not sports-related. Hilarious though. Pure joy.
