The Lakers lose the first two games at home. This is great news for those who want to see someone else win the title, bad news for the NBA. Lakers=ratings. David Stern may make the Mavericks play with four in the next two games...
Great to hear television icon Michael J. Fox will return for the Principal Charity Classic Pro-Am. Fox gives clinics in comic timing---even with Parkinson's...
On the Murph & Andy Show Wednesday, we asked our listeners to help us decide Iowa's Mt. Rushmore of sports.

Not all are for everybody... (Minka Kelly represents my favorite show, the soon departing, and criminally under-watched Friday Night Lights)
