Morning Head: Let's go back to pointing and laughing at Ohio State

Sarah Shahi, who we haven't heard from in a while, and that's a shame. But she just got into a Twitter fight with Paris Hilton, so that's a good enough excuse to use a picture of her in a bikini.

We have a new guy, his name is Griffin. I brought him on board because he made me realize last night that I have a very remedial knowledge of advanced baseball statistics. I also had forgotten that he's a big Michigan fan, but he made up for it by posting a bikini picture for no reason in his first post. He'll fit in just fine.

So, the NCAA served Ohio State with a "Notice of Allegations" Monday. Apparently it's nothing new, but it does tell us the NCAA is really serious about this issue. The common reaction around the Internetz was "LOLZ" or "Tressel is fucked." Both are accurate. Even Kirk Herbstreit, who was pictured doing this at the national title game against Miami, thinks the Vest is in deep shit. (Columbus Post-Dispatch)

The heat lamp was removed a little bit from the Buckeyes, however, when a judge sided with the players and lifted the NFL lockout. Things still need to be negotiated, because there's no collective bargaining agreement. So does this mean there will definitely be football this fall? I don't know, read the link (I personally e-mailed the full ruling to my dad, who is a lawyer, because that's what I always do when I don't understand something. Of course, every time I call up and say, "Dad, I have a ruling I want you to read through," he hesitates for a second, wondering what I've done). I do know that this is a step in the right direction, which is something. (SB Nation)

ACC fans are apparently sick of playing second fiddle to SEC fans, so they've stepped it up 37 notches by poisoning dogs. My suggested punishment: Dress the guilty party in Lady Gaga's meat dress and stick him/her into the cage of the remaining Tamaskans. (ACC Sports Journal)

The Los Angeles Kings weren't able to extend the Sharks to a Game 7, as Joe Thornton of all people scored the game-winning goal in overtime early Tuesday morning. The Kings had every chance to win this game, being given a five-minute power play to close out regulation and start overtime, but could barely set up let alone score a goal. It's pretty incredibly, actually, that the Kings were able to push the Sharks to Game 6 even, as they were without leading scorer Anze Kopitar throughout the whole series. The fact that the Kings were still able to score without much trouble in this series, gives me a lot of hope for the Wings if they get the Sharks. Also, this happened. (Mercury News)

There is no greater team blog to go to after a loss than the Pensblog. And today is no different. The Penguins will have to play a Game 7 Wednesday against the Tampa Bay Lightning after losing 4-2 in Tampa. I don't really have much more to say about this, other than I hate the Penguins and I love Game 7s. (Pensblog)

The Memphis Grizzlies are humbling the Spurs right now, and have taken a 3-1 lead in their first-round series. Some will point to the energy and youth of the Grizzlies as a major factor. I, however, will point to Tony Allen's haircut -- which he apparently cut off before the game -- which clearly has enough power to get the Griz to the finals. Oh, and Dallas beat Portland and Denver staved off elimination against Oklahoma City. (Ball Don't Lie)

Today's Amazingness is a clip from the HBO show "Talking Funny." Anyone have any idea where I can find this whole show?
