What I found most interesting about this year’s NBA finals is the prospect of Kobe finally leading the Lakers to a championship without the purportedly indispensable assistance of Shaquille O’Neal. Recall that the Lakers traded Shaq to the Miami Heat in 2004 to indulge Kobe’s petulant and narcissistic personality. And since then all NBA fans have [...]

But other than the nostalgic segmented plates, there's not much "TV Dinner" about this thirty-buck meal. Introduced last month, the weekly-rotating combos are available downstairs at The Library restaurant or via...

Mike Krzyzewski has piled up the national championships, coaching awards and conference titles during nearly three decades at Duke. The Hall of Fame coach insists there's plenty of room in his trophy case for an honor of even higher significance. "Someone asked (Kobe Bryant), on your mantle, what (awards) would have the highest place? The gold medal," Krzyzewski said Wednesday. "And all the guys would...

Nominations are being accepted for the 2008 ADCOLOR™ Awards. Can’t help but wonder if this event is already irrelevant. Last year’s big winner was Earvin “Magic” Johnson. Maybe Kobe Bryant or Tiger Woods will take home the trophy in 2008. The commercials hyping the show are mighty lame—and the spot with the old man playing a harmonica is stereotypical bullshit. But hey, good luck to all the inevitable...
