The Journalists Is Smart And Diligent
How absurd has the the Kobe Bryant story become? There was a rather large media kerfuffle at Lakers practice yesterday revolving around whether or not Kobe had cleaned out his locker. It turned out that he hadn't cleaned out his locker; he had merely cleaned it. Say what you will about the status of...

If You Anger JJ Redick, His Brother Will Text Your Ass

He is the ruler of this and many other galaxies, and his will is legendary; he could crush us all with his mind. (He can also use his mind to bend spoons and pop collars.) A Florida woman is learning...
You Will Believe A Man Can Fly
We are no experts on the art of the dance, but from most accounts, for a guy with a replaced hip, Mark Cuban did all right on "Dancing With The Stars" last evening.

Isiah Thomas Is A Cunning Linguist
Considering all that's going on in the Isiah Thomas harassment trial, we find it difficult to keep up. If we aren't careful, we'll make every post about it. Anyway, here's yesterday's highlights, with more, surely, to come tomorrow....
