This Is How You Looked In 1990, America
This isn't sports, beyond a Mets kid and what I believe is a Randy White Cowboys shirtsey. But it is America, in the summer of 1990, as pictured at your local mall. As someone who wasn't old enough to be dressing myself in 1990, I can say: shame on you, past people. [How To Be A Retronaut]...

Sad Pitino. Sad Bird.
Rick Pitino's Cardinals became the first, but certainly not the last high seed to bow out early. There's justice in an unlikable coach falling to an obscure-therefore-likable team, and there's a joke somewhere in Pitino getting bounced by a team called Morehead State. Maybe you can find one....
