Following up on D Mag’s item on Brett Hull and Mike Modano deciding to open up a restaurant together, I rolled over and engaged Mo in a little pillow talk.

“Yeah, we’re going to try to have it ready in time for football season, for September,’’ Modano tells DallasBasketball.com. “It’ll be kind of an upscale sports-themed deal, a restaurant, and then a big room in back for the guys to hang out.’’

After making sure I would be allowed to “hang out’’ (and at brother-in-law prices, I would damn sure assume), I asked more about the motif. And yeah, it’ll be pretty Dallas Stars/hockey intense. Plus, I’m sure, football and junk. Mo was quite the tall, skinny junior-high quarterback back in the Detroit suburbs, you know.

“Hully and his dad (the equally legendary Bobby Hull) are coming up with a lot of stuff, classy memorabilia, old hockey photos and keepsakes, plus other sports stuff,’’ Mo said. “All classy, though.’’
