• Nets win! Nets win! Nets win! Their 10th on the year, they assure that they will not have the NBA's worst record of all time. Because as bad as New Jersey is, at least it's not Philadelphia. I'm talking basketball. I think.
•Here's the text of Bob Uecker's WWE Hall of Fame induction speech. Not a single mention of Miles Knobnoster's headgear. How quickly they forget where they came from.

Happy Passover. We'll try to keep our posts yeast-free.
