But got to love the Fourth of July. A holiday where Americans celebrate our Independence while buying things and shooting off fireworks from China.
George Takei has apologized for calling Clarence Thomas a “clown in blackface.” Is Takei apologizing for the “blackfare” reference, or for insulting clowns?

ESPN reported Friday morning that the NY Mets had scored 23 runs in the last 17 days. Maybe they’re taking support of the US Women’s World Cup team a little too literally?
(And then the Mets won Friday night, 2-1. )
In late August, the NY Mets will play the Boston Red Sox, in the “Something’s got to give” series. As my friend Joseph passed on in a comment he read somewhere “The only thing the Red Sox pitching staff has retired this season is Pedro Martinez’s uniform number.”

Not a mirage, lots of Los Angeles fans actually still in the stands in the 9th inning of #Dodgers loss to #Mets Friday night. Maybe they’ve actually decided they care more about the game than traffic…. Nah, it was Fireworks Night.

The NBA free agent market is really heating up. All it needs to be a serious TV event might be some of these players starting to hand out roses to their suitors.

Stanford amateur golfer Maverick McNealy leads former Stanford amateur Tiger Woods by 3 shots after the third round at The Greenbrier Classic. Might be a good time for Eldrick to get a few swing tips*. (can’t pay the kid, or he loses his amateur status)
