I was just about to post about Linsanity!
You beat me to it.
This is everything the Tebow story is supposed to be with none of the annoyance. I love watching his highlights, and he’s inspired me to watch the next Knicks game that I can. It would be my first regular season NBA game in years.
Best part is how Kobe played the story off in pregame all arrogantly
and after Lin’s start, he started taking it personally, pushing him out of bounds on a rebound. And Lin outscores him on 6 fewer shots. Awesome.
I wonder if Lin will move out of his brother's apartment now
pretty sure he’s secured a roster spot, to say the least

an absent comma wouldn't necessarily make the comment untrue
I believe in the The Black & Gold Standard
As a nerd note
They’re actually doing away with the Oxford comma in new style guides as of this year. My English teacher’s head nearly exploded.
Hold on and I'll see if I can find the article again
Since this feed is apparently never happening
Didn't find it
but the style guide itself says ’As a general rule, do not use the serial/Oxford comma: so write ‘a, b and c’ not ‘a, b, and c’. But when a comma would assist in the meaning of the sentence or helps to resolve ambiguity, it can be used – especially where one of the items in the list is already joined by ‘and’
So I guess don’t bother unless it prevents the creation of Stalin strippers.

Well, I'm back from youth BBall
We lost Game 2. The other team ran off an 11-0 streak to end of game, but we REALLY lost because of two bogus charge calls. After the game, the other coach shook hands with the reffs—proves he paid them off! But even when we lose, we’re clearly better anyway, just look at all our old, dusty titles. And this is our least talented team ever, which means…I don’t know. Something. Oh, and even though we lost, our coach out coached their coach..
