Speaking of doing alright for himself, holy shit, Dirk. Nowitzki scored 48 points on 12-of-15 shooting from the field, and 24-of-24 shooting from the free throw line. Yeah, it's kind of ridiculous (riDirkulous?) that he took 24 free throws, but it's even more ridiculous that me made all of them. I'd imagine that 11 of those 12 field goals didn't even hit the rim. I was only paying half attention to the game, honestly, having it on in the background while following along on Twitter. So I was a little shocked when I looked up and Oklahoma City was actually still in the game. That was probably because Kevin Durant scored 40 points of his own. This series should be fun.

So, it appears Tyler Seguin is pretty good, huh? Seguin had two goals and two assists to lead Boston to a 6-5 win against Tampa Bay in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference finals. This was a series, mind you, that was all about the old goalies who were on fire. Through two games, there have been a combined 18 goals. Despite that, Tim Thomas might have been the reason the Bruins won last night. Yeah, the guy that gave up five and allowed one off of his face, was the reason his team won. He made some huge-mungous saves down the stretch to protect the lead. This series should also continue to be fun. (Boston.com)
Daniel Tosh is paid to say crazy things, and last night, he did that. People are going to be offended by this, and I'm not saying they shouldn't be, but don't expect an apology from Tosh. He's a comedian, he can say whatever the hell he wants as long as there are people who will be willing to laugh. (Sports By Brooks)
The Cavs are back! Or, well, maybe. They at least have the chance to pick two impact players as they own the Nos. 1 and 4 picks in the NBA Draft after last night's lottery. But really, the story of the night was the bow-tie and dark-rimmed glasses wearing 14-year-old that David Kahn hates. (Cleveland.com and Ball Don't Lie)
The College Football Hall of Fame announced its 2011 class Tuesday, and all it did was force us to ask the following questions: "Wait, Deion Sanders and Eddie George weren't already in?" And "Holy shit, Tommie Frazier still isn't in?" Frazier was the guy that people brought up along with Charles Woodson when people talked about Tim Tebow as the best college football player of all time. Frazier was one of the most dynamic players in the history of the game, and the fact that he never did anything beyond college is irrelevant as this is the College Football Hall of Fame. (CBS Sports)
The mother of Arnold Schwarzenegger's love child was identified and she's -- gah! Wow. What the fuck. I think Arnold needs to go with the "I was raped" defense, because honestly, it might work. (Huffington Post)
USA Today takes a stand on climate change, which is kind of like taking a stand on evolution or against storks that bring children to your doorstep. They, however, compared climate change deniers to birthers, which is fitting. Then again, for us living in Michigan where it's in the 40s in mid May, we're really looking forward to this whole global warming thing. (USA Today)
