- Isiah Thomas has been accused of sexual harassment, and unfortunately, not by Mike Sweetney. A woman who worked as an executive for the Knicks claims that Zeke made unwanted advances towards her and that she was fired after she complained. The woman, Anucha Browne Sanders, is actually the fourth-leading scorer in Big Ten’s women’s basketball history, which probably makes her the 2nd or 3rd best basketball player in the Knicks organization. She should probably sue for a starting spot while she’s at it.
- Hey, here’s something that doesn’t matter: Bill Cowher and the Steelers have chosen to go with their white uniforms for the Super Bowl because the whites make them feel really special. This, of course, puts Seattle in their blues, in which they’re 10-0. Just out of curiosity, does anyone know why the Steelers were designated the home team, and thus, allowed to choose? I thought that went to the team with the best record.
- Martina Hingis finally lost in the Australian Open. But she did take Kim Clijsters, the 2-seed, to three sets. How impressive is this? She hasn’t played a big tournament in forever, and she’s already pushing through to the quarterfinals of a major? She’s not even near in top shape. She’s going to be winning these things before too long. And then, we can get married and start making babies.
- In regards to the ongoing nonsense in the comments… something’s going to be done about it soon. Blogger doesn’t give me the capability of tracking and/or banning IPs, and that’s clearly something I need, so… the site will be undergoing a major overhaul sometime soon, as I switch to a different blogging software. I don’t want to do it, and I can’t believe I have to, but… this can’t go on anymore. As much ridiculous bullshit is currently there, I delete even more of it that most of you probably never see. And some of it really puts me in a tough spot. I don’t know when I’m going to have time to do it, but it’s happening soon.
- This probably deserves it’s own blog item, but… so long, Mario Lemieux. Perhaps the most physically talented hockey player ever. Big, strong, fast, creative, and had the hands of a surgeon. Belongs in the elite class of the greatest hockey players ever, with Gretzky, Howe, and Orr. It’s really too bad that he couldn’t go out on his own terms, instead of having it dictated to him by his health. Best of luck in retirement.
