I can't dispute your point. I used to think his tirades at reporters were funny; of course, that was when I was young and thought Al Franken was funny.

Franken is still funny. He'll be laughing all the way to the Senate in a couple weeks.

He may be on his way to the Senate (I'm staying out of political discussion here), but he hasn't been funny since Stewart Smalley retired.

If anybody was wondering, Hightower and Valentine are indeed together working Michigan State-Purdue tonight with Jim Burr. Sounds like a tournament crew.

Everytime I hear or read the name Jim Burr I feel cold.

I read this article today then also saw that, found it pretty funny.

I find it shocking that Valentine didn't issue the first T to Knight a lot sooner. Would you EVER let a coach talk to you like that? I mean, what is the F-bomb limit in college basketball? Is college that much different from high school? If so, why?
