    No, I only saw "end of text" for the cell with the snowboards, not the 
cell with the "blah blah blah", so it doesn't actually work.

    The problem is that you're using getPreferredSize() to try to determine 
the height of the cells. In the case of 
"Snowboard\nSnowboard\nSnowboard\nend of text" (or whatever), your text is 4 
lines long, and so the preferred size has a height such that it's possible 
to display 4 lines. But your "Bla bla bla bla bla bla" is just 1 super long 
line, and so the preferred size is something like "width = 500px, height = 
20px", i.e. a super wide, but short, rectangle.

    Since in your code, you only keep the maximum height, the height for the 
Snowboard text is kept, and thus the height is only big enough for 4 lines, 
not for the 10 lines of your bla bla bla text.

    It looks like you might have to perform line wrapping calculations 
manually to get the effect you want.
