It's been said many times before...

but it needs to be said yet again...Robert Horry is AWESOME. The guy scores 21 of the Spurs last 35 points, including the dagger in OT. Now I could sit here and bash that knucklehead Rasheed Wallace for leaving the most clutch shooter in NBA Finals history wide open with the game on the line, but I'd rather celebrate Big Shot Rob. The guy is simply amazing. And forget the 5-6 from three point land, did you see the dunk??? Simply amazing. I thought Hubie Brown was gonna pass out after BSR hit the three.

I doubt many people saw these two catches, but David Wright of the Mets and Casey Blake of the Indians made two very impressive catches on foul tips Saturday night. Blake jumped up on the tarp, than over it, to catch a ball in Cleveland's game, and Wright went Superman-style into the stands, full extension, to catch a foul ball in New York's game. I think Wright's head even hit the railing in the seats while holding onto the ball.

I always enjoy Johnny Miller during NBC's golf telecasts, and here's just one more reason why...NBC's Johnny Miller made history Friday, becoming the first live event TV golf commentator to unequivocally criticize TV meal ticket Tiger Woods for rotten behavior. Woods' misconduct, while often seen and heard, is just as often ignored, excused or even applauded as evidence of his "intensity." Woods, in the second round of the U.S. Open, after missing a six-footer, angrily raked his putter along the line of the putt, cutting into the grain and raising the grass over several feet. He then made a weak attempt to correct the damage, raking his putter in reverse. It was the kind of move that would get a 14-year-old thrown off a pitch-and-putt track. "You should not do that, right there," said Miller. "That is not good for the rest of the field, especially just that little wipe to fix it. You should be down there, patting it better."

No need to mock Retief for his final round yesterday (or that Gore guy who invented the Internet), because my brother and I figured out I would shoot a 205 on Pinehurst #2. If I'm lucky.

Family Guy has not lost it at all. In fact, neither has SouthPark.

Corey Haim is now extremely fat.
