I'd urge anyone watching this to try not to make sense of it. Bill Murray (paired with D.A.

Tim Thomas Announces On Facebook That He "Stands With The Catholics In The Fight For Religious Freedom"
OK, so last time Bruins goalie Tim Thomas spoke up on Facebook he received plenty of scorn.

Nationals "Take Back The Park" From Phillies Fans, Give It Right Back To Them
Every time the Phillies visit Nationals Park, it feels like a home game for them.

Oklahoma's Steven Pledger Prematurely Celebrated His Game-Tying Buzzer-Beater That Didn't Go In
It can't feel good to lose, especially in front of an empty arena. But it takes a certain amount of hubris—beyond the amount we're comfortable with, at least—to celebrate a shot before it goes in, especially if that shot wouldn't even win you the game.
