Quick Hits...
Okay, no long diatribe today, just some quick nuggets.
The 40-Year Old Virgin is a hysterical movie - much better than I expected. I have not laughed that hard in a while. Highly recommended.
Paul Pierce will not help the Bulls in the long run. He may be a quick patch, but it will hurt the Bulls in their long range plan to acquire a player which almost solely plays offense and no defense. What reason does Jim Paxson have to believe that Pierce will change this late in his career? How will this hurt the chemistry of a team which is used to having each of its players treated equally, regardless of his importance to the team? Of course, if the Bulls trade for Pierce and LaFrentz (as reported by Sam Smith of the Tribune, 1/30/06), perhaps they can get Roy Williams to leave UNC and come coach the Bulls, who will have 3 former Jayhawks on the roster.
Is Jerome Bettis going home this week? If so, does he have to sleep in the same twin size bed that he slept in for the first 18 years of his life under this parent's roof? If s0, this is an underanalyzed underbelly of this story due to its potential impact on Bettis' health for the game. Maybe ESPN can do a 3-part story on this Wednesday - Friday this week as a follow up to their interview with Bettis' mom.
Will NBC ask all of their Olympic hosts to pronounce Italian names in a butchered Italian-American translation? Please, if you live and work in the US, the Olympics are being played in "Turin", not "Torino".
Thanks for reading.
