Sports-related excerpts from last night’s Jay Leno monologue on NBC’s ‘The Tonight Show.’

‘’Yesterday, at a rally in Virginia, they played the theme to ‘Rocky’ as John McCain walked out on stage. I don’t know. Does John McCain seem like Rocky to you? Doesn’t he seem more like the Burgess Meredith character? … Why would McCain want to be like Rocky? Did you see the movie? Didn’t Rocky get the hell kicked out of him by the black guy? ... The L.A. City Council has voted to change the name of the neighborhood around Dodger Stadium to ‘Dodgertown.’ That’s a good idea when the team is doing terrific, but what do you want to do when you’re in last place, huh? Anybody want to live in ‘Clippersville?’ Actually, they’re doing that in Chicago. They’re going to call the neighborhood out on Wrigley Field, ‘Wait-Until-Next-Year-Town’”
