If memory serves, the last guy picked in my gym class in No. 3 School in the early 1960s never received $20,000 to donate to his favorite charity and a new bike.

But the fabulous NHL -- Motto: No Star Left Behind -- was only too happy to assuage the last man standing. I'm OK and even You're OK, Phil Kessel, the Toronto Maple Leafs winger who was given the money and a 2011 Honda CR-Z.

I was watching that too. I dunno if, at his income level, a cr-z is worth the north-america-wide embarassment.

Edit: Side note, that guy who was doing the interviews was a douche - always trying to stir something up or ask awkward questions :chuckle
