Well, there's not point in having an MVP vote this year—or even playing the rest of the NBA season—for that matter. Shaq's Twitter feed has made its choice and that's good enough for me.

Yes, Shaquille O'Neal weighed in on a competitive MVP race and despite his obvious biases, he went with arch-frenemy Kobe Bryant. That's the final word. How do I know that? Because his Twitter feed told me so.

Surreal. Anyway, big day today, but we've got plenty of downtime before the Conference Championships. We also have a special guest visitor for the NFC game at ... 3:00 p.m.? And the late game is six-thirty!? Give me a break, TV people! I guess that means no "Cold Case" tonight. Thanks a lot, jerks!
