Ed Stefanski does not seem very excited in this interview about selecting in the 17 hole this coming Thursday. Maybe it's because they've already made a trade with Toronto for the best shooter in the world, Jason Kapono. I mean, you have him scoring, who else do you need? On ...

Chipper Jones kind-of/sort-of wigged out on Sunday at Fenway with the Braves playing the Red Sox, and while his ejection didn't cost the Braves the game, the missed call by Bill Hohn that got Eric O'Flaherty ejected probably did.
And after O'Flaherty got tossed, Bobby Cox and Chipper got worked up ...

When I listen to Kevin O'Neill speak, all I can think of is Jeff Van Gundy. They are carbon copies of each other: hard nosed, don't like nonsense, not the handsomest of men, and they sound exactly the same. So, when people suggest the Toronto Raptors hire Jeff Van Gundy ...

Jim O'Brien's always been an underrated coach, at least in my opinion. Plus, the Indiana Pacers are kind of a train wreck right now (my boy, Danny Granger, aside) and he did a pretty good job with the squad last year, all things given.
