Saying it’s “just time” @TurnerSportsEJ will step down from Inside the NBA after this season. Charles, @TheJetOnTNT and @Shaq are the best but the heart and soul is Mr. Johnson. Somebody will follow in his footsteps but no one will fill those shoes
When I heard all episodes of SCTV are now available on Netflix I wondered how times my friend @JohnLPitts would watch House of Beef. John Candy rules in 3D. Chuckling over that
Few better interviewers than @SamFragoso on @TalkEasyPod but even by his standards his recent chat with @Nick_Offerman is extraordinary. Offerman, among the top five most interesting people ever, will be my portal to Wendell Berry
Legendary actor Tim Blake Nelson writes one of Hollywood’s great satirical novels in Super Hero. makes it hard to look at films in the same way. Brilliant @unnamedpress
Finally bought “I Exaggerate:My Brushes With Fame” by writer/actor/comic @kevin_nealon and was amazed at the brilliance of his art work. The accompanying essays are of course excellent
LeBron signing is going to make things interesting in the Carey household. The mic is yours @KnicksNextCoach
Of all the great Knicks fans the greatest might be @KnicksNextCoach Your wait is over
Watching The Lowdown by the brilliant Sterlin Harjoe spurred me to re-read the @Lou_Berney oeuvre starting with Gutshot Straight, a masterpiece. Riding with Shake Bouchon always worth the trip.
All the stories in “The Final Score” by @donwinslow are extraordinarily good but the hilarious “True Story” ranks among the top 5 novellas ever. @WinslowBookClub @RobDoherty79
Gone Before Goodbye by @ReeseW and @HarlanCoben is an exceptional writing duo debut. Coben has always been one of the greats and Witherspoon shows off a dazzling new talent. Jordan and Pippen in no particular order
Dan Patrick of asks @philjackson11 who he wished he could have coached. When Jackson said Christian Laettner you could sense the WTF moment from the @dpshow crew. That is great radio and makes Jackson’s new book with @SamSmithHoops a must read. Patrick, Smith, Jackson all GOATS
Re-ordered parts in 2-1-3 perusal order on 3rd reading of Life of Chuck. Remains brilliant. More proof the writing of @StephenKing contains multitudes
Few things make me laugh as much as Tomorrow’s Headlines Today with @jasonrmcintyre Favorite segment of the week
Few things more enjoyable than re-reading the Burglar series. @LawrenceBlock among the planet’s top 5 writers. Bernie Rhodenbarr and Ray Kirschmann might be our greatest odd couple.
Hearing @MMcCarthyREV on @dpshow reminds me how excellent he is talking sports tv. Defines coffee is for closers mentality
When @TheHurd host @colincowherd said he tips 10% at breakfast because they don’t have to work as hard I am thinking he has a future of saliva filled coffee and God knows what in his eggs
Kudos to @scottie_sheffle for outstanding life/work balance. Refreshing. Nominate him for Wallace Shawn role in My Dinner With Andre re-make youtube.com/watch?v=mKIOKekX…
King of Ashes by @blacklionking73 is one brilliant high wire act. Cosby never disappoints. In the words of Tin Cup: a little gust there Rome
