From the WNBA, here’s a report on how this year’s crop of rookies are faring. From Candace Parker we, of course, expected great. It’s awesome, however, to see the impact of the Charde Houston’s and Candice Wiggins’ and Nicky Anoskie’s of the group. (The Minnesota Lynx seem to have fared especially well on the rookie [...]

My first read this morning included some tough talk from John Conyers regarding Karl Rove and the Judiciary Committee’s subpoena of Mr. Turdblossom himself. You go John! Meanwhile, the Justice Department’s Office of Professional Responsibility is also investigating a widening number of alleged “selective prosecutions” which may have been (OMG) politically motivated. I’m glad this [...]
What to say? It’s Memphis-Kansas in the Men’s Final tonight … and will be Tennessee-Stanford for the Women on Tuesday night (and we’ll get to see Candace Parker and Candice Wiggins go at it one more time)!

Well, well, well. Sorting things out this morning I see that #6 Pittsburgh eliminated #3 Baylor to move into the Sweet Sixteen for the first time in school history! Meanwhile (too bad, Karyn), gritty Florida State took Oklahoma State to overtime before succumbing 73-72 (on a free throw with 0.7 seconds left in the game [...]
