The Brooklyn Nets' New Mascot Basically Has The Same Name As A Porn Star
When the Nets left New Jersey, they left their old mascot, Sly, a wolf or rabbit or something, in New Jersey, along with Shawne Williams and the ghost of Kerry Kittles.

Alabama Escapes Death (Valley): Angling For Three, A Screen Pass Goes For 28 Yards And Wins It
A great game that looked like an upset deep into the fourth quarter-if you go by point spread, was something of an upset even after the final buzzer-turned into another in a long string of Alabama victories, as the Crimson Tide won 21-17 and moved to 9-0 (6-0 SEC) on the season....
