Happy Birthday John Daly!
It’s the CEO of Murder Rock C.C.’s 45th birthday.
Guy has a great attitude. Personally, I’d love to see Daly back true to early-90s form. And so would you. Every time Daly flirts with contending in a tournament, you know you root for The Wild Thing.

Amber Rose, A Fan Of Black & Yellow
An excuse to post a photo of Amber Rose eating a burrito. She’s a Steelers fan (or she’s just dating Wiz Khalifa).
Either way, take that Kanye (read: excuse to post a sexy photo of Amber Rose and Kanye).

Logistically speaking, Buzz Bissinger is still wildly confused by social media
Content aside, how many followers is it going to take before Buzz selects a Twitter pic other than the egg? I’ve already told the people at The Daily Beast that they should set him up with an outlandish avatar. I don’t think I’m the first person to make this suggestion.
We’ve been over and over Buzz’s behavior on Twitter. Frighteningly enough, he’...

I want to go to a Minnesota high school hockey state final
If Prince ever wrote a song about his home state’s illustrious hockey history, Saturday’s three-OT thriller between Eden Prairie and Duluth East for the class 2a title would be his muse.
I have no idea whether, like most Minnesotans, Prince enjoys hockey, but he loves muses.
Check out how this contest ended…

Bill Clinton’s letter to Chris Webber, post-1993 NCAA Championship game
Bill Clinton is a huge NCAA basketball fan, as well as a fan of his own words of wisdom. So it comes as no surprise that after Chris Webber’s huge gaffe in the 1993 NCAA Championship Finals (of which you can revisit below), Clinton penned a heartfelt letter to the dejected Webber a couple days after the game.
Haven’t seen The Fab Five yet, but hearing a lot of good things...

Quiz: Name the 66 most successful teams in NCAA tournament history
H/T to Guyism’s Isaac for finding this highly mathematical quiz that asks you to name the 66 most successful teams in NCAA tournament history in 12:00 mins.
I was going to post my best gets, worst misses, and a photo of my board. Then I realized that would be giving everyone who sees that information a decisive advantage. Just know that I got 43/66.
Go take the quiz at Sporcle...

This buzzer beater trumps all
I was going to post about the upcoming 30 for 30 on The Fab Five today, because I post about all of those awesome sports docudramas.
Then a few people tweeted this. Jalen Rose can wait patiently.
Who cares if he egregiously traveled? You’re king sh*t, #14 from Holy Trinity Catholic School.

Brian Wilson is back on Twitter! (When did that happen??)
After an inauspicious exit in 2009, Brian Wilson is back on Twitter. When did this glorious event occur?
To be precise, Feb 2. I didn’t find out about it until yesterday, March 2nd – when I investigated who Charlie Sheen is following.
Good to have Brian back and currently tweeting shout-outs to area codes and developing Twitter relationships with other crazy guys.

Charlie “The Answer” Sheen – “We talkin’ ’bout practice”
There were more humorous moments from the Today Show – Charlie Sheen interview – like when he referred to himself having “tiger blood” and “adonis DNA” in the same sentence – but this part really captured the crazy. I can’t wait for Part 2 tomorrow.
H/T to The Big Lead for cutting this.

Want to get paid to watch every game this baseball season under the MLB’s employ?
Simply, MLB wants to add a staffer tasked with watching every single contest of the 2011 season. Here’s the pitch:
I don’t have half the drive nor the passion for this. However, I’m deeply interested in how this plays out.
The most interesting bullet points in the job responsibilities:
Must reside in a location picked by MLB in New York City for the entire baseball...

UTEP coach Tim Floyd ejected, escorted off the court by police
Never seen a coach get police escorted out of a game?
Bonus points to anyone who can identify the Cosby sweater who comes out on the court to rescue Floyd from himself. Is it the UTEP Athletic Director? That seemed like an AD move to me.

Ray Allen “This team right here, they don’t belong on the same floor with us…”
I saw this on SportsCenter this morning, and immediately wanted to hear it again when I got to work. Hats off to Reds Army for tracking down the goods. This is the caliber of pregame speech that makes Kevin Garnett skip the lay-up lines in favor of spending warm-ups head-butting the hoop’s pole pad.
Reds raises an interesting point – who is that Celtics roster member...

Happy Birthday Bob Ryan
Happy Birthday, Bob Ryan. The long-time Boston Globe penman turned 65 today. He’s had a fairly illustrious sportswriting career – Bill Simmons once called him the best basketball writer ever. Another fun factoid I just learned from his Wikipedia page is that he once directed fans to his Wikipedia page instead of admitting to a mistake that he made in an article when he...

Watch: Marvin Gaye’s smooth rendition of the National Anthem at the 1983 All-Star game
I care very little about tonight’s NBA All Star game. However, I wouldn’t have minded being at the 1983 game to see Kareem, Magic, Bird, Dr. J, Isaiah and hear Marvin Gaye’s soul-drenched version of The Star Spangled Banner.
Groban’s tonight will be less memorable.

A car and a Blake Griffin were on a basketball court at the same time. I think you know the rest.
