Quote of the day
"Well, that defies explanation." -- Orlando coach Stan Van Gundy, after coming from 24 points behind in the 3rd quarter to beat the Heat in Miami

Daily blurb
I didn’t turn on the Orlando-Miami game until midway through the 4th quarter, after the Heat had already “gone cold” so to speak. Apparently, Mike Miller had made a 70-footer just after the clock expired at the end of the first half, and Miami could have used those points. Maybe they should have tried lining up Miller for another 70-footer at the end of the game. Neither of Miami’s two final 3-point attempts from Bosh or LeBron were particularly close.

The leaderboard after the opening round of the Honda Classic looks more like a U.S. Open leaderboard. Only eight golfers were under par, and the pro-forma cut line was at +4. Reportedly, today’s winds have “quieted a touch”, but conditions are still such that the cut line is likely to climb today.

Last call for managers to sign up for a AA qualifying league for the RIBC. If we can get about another ten managers, we could set up two full AA leagues. But we need to get it settled by the beginning of next week. Recruit your friends! Sign up (or ask questions) in this thread.
