I’m sure it doesn’t hold up with volume but I very much enjoyed watching the mute image of what happens when I’m trying to summon the muse.

Are you guys reading Brian Phillips’ Wimbledon stuff at Grantland? Each one has been pretty great.
Henrik Lundqvist wins Vezina last night, channels inner Jonathan Quick, and drops F bomb.
Sharapova hangs with her new best friend. Great photo.
“The reaction of several league executives was part disgust, part resignation on Wednesday night. So many had predicted this happening, so many suspected that somehow, someway, the Hornets would walk away with Davis. That’s the worst part for the NBA; these aren’t the railings from the guy sitting at the corner tavern, but the belief of those working within the machinery that something undue happened here, that they suspect it happens all the time under Stern.”
NBA execs would fit right in on Twitter I think.
My favorite things heard during the NBA Draft
“The Kings making some machinations” - Mark Jones
“Let’s hear it for New Jersey.” - David Stern (being a fool)
“They need a veteran, but you can’t get a veteran in the NBA Draft.” - Jay Bilas
“Bottoms up, everybody” - Jay Bilas after saying “wingspan,” aware of your drinking games
“V-V-V … the big Lithuanian guy. That wasn’t even a good hide by me. I’m terrible with international names.” - JVG FTW
“First of all, he’s got great taste in women.” - Pimp Fran Fraschilla on Jan Vesely
“Bismack Biyombo” - Every time someone says that name
“It feels like the day I gave birth to him.” - Kemba’s mom
“If anyone deserves a miracle comeback, it’s Yao Ming.” - JVG
“I believe in Donnie Walsh.” - Emo Spike Lee
“He’s a conscientious objector on the glass.” - The verbose pimp named Fran
That’s enough.
How I would conduct an interview for the Knicks GM position
Me:: Is your name Isiah Thomas?
Candidate:: No.
Me:: Will you ever hire Mark Jackson as a coach?
Candidate:: No.
Me:: You're hired!
Too sad about Donne Walsh right now, so here is Fred Funk taunting a goose with his putter.
The Pulitzer prize winning reporter delivers some pretty eye opening stuff. I really wasn’t too familiar with how widespread this thing was, or how much of a pattern had followed Tressel in the past.
I still have not gotten around to reading Dohrmann’s book. This piece will make me want to do that sooner rather than later.
The fact that this article seemed to force the resignation at this moment should tell you something.
A page from Gus Malzahn’s playbook at Auburn.
I guess it’s easy to forget that Cam Newton played for Gus, who is a maestro of an offensive coordinator. Smart Football has had plenty of great stuff illustrating his offense.
Hint: it’s not single read.
Maybe we should feel better about his pro prospects.
