Quote of the day
"The way I approach things, the way I think about things -- not only basketball, life in general -- comes from [Phil Jackson]. It's a little weird for me to think of what next year is going to be like." -- Lakers guard Kobe Bryant, after getting swept by Dallas in the NBA playoffs

Daily blurb
David Stern’s head must be exploding today. The Lakers are already out of the playoffs, leaving Dallas and Oklohoma City as the two westernmost cities still alive. And Mark Cuban is the one who took out the NBA’s best west coast ratings draw. I wonder if Stern can fine him for that?

Justin Verlander notched the season’s second no-hitter on Saturday, and there was nothing cheap about this one, walking only one batter, and needing only 108 pitches (74 strikes, 4 strikeouts). Interestingly enough, in terms of FanDuel points, two other pitchers did better that day - Gavin Floyd, who pitched 8 shutout innings, allowing only 3 hits with 2 walks and 6 Ks, and Yovani Gallardo, with 8 one-hit shutout innings (4 BB, 6 K). The primary reason is that FanDuel does not factor in hits allowed – just IP, ER, SO, and wins.

There was no question about which team had the best weekend in GuruGolf, as Team ? (-54) was 5 strokes better than the second best team. Cyberwahoo5 (+49) eked out the worst ball honors by a single stroke, in spite of having only one golfer alive for the final round (who shot a -1).
