Hi, welcome back, Shoals. If you live in Los Angeles, I'll be on ESPN Radio at 12:45.

Kindly observe my newest Sporting News column, which is about playoff anti-heroes. If you felt my previous efforts were a little too straight-laced, this should come as a pleasant surprise.

Also, Obama on HBO tonight talking about his relationship with hoops. Expect a post later. I also want to do a "State of FreeDarko Heading into the Playoffs" monster before this weekend. I hope it happens.

    enjoyed the Sporting News column a lot, although shortly after reading it I read this:

    and now feel you made an egregious omission from the list

    I know I shouldn't carry on, but:

    "That's the question: How much substance can you endow sports with?"

    Can sport not equal art? Certainly, it can. Substance IS.

    There's something strange going on in Washington...is it a Web 2.0 blogosphere self-awareness? Or something much more organic and awesome?

    Definitely something to track during The Post Season.

    I'm all for role-players making themselves interesting, but Reggie Even's going for the sack of the ugliest man in the game? That's a bit to much 'personality' for me. Also, as a Suns fan, the Horry incident took me from, "I F-ing hate that guy," to, "If I had a few shots of tequila in me, I might literally stab him to death if I had the chance."

    I'd like to throw another name into the mix, especially if Denver does end up with the 8th seed: Sasha Vujacic. The dude already got Melo to strangle him en route to an ejection earlier in the year.

    i wish it was possible for denver to hit san antonio in the first round. that would be such a karmically satisfying series.

    is the WA-DC web thing about the team? I love Deshawn.

    is it too early to talk in hushed whispers about the wiz taking out both CLE and BOS on the way to the EastCo finals?

    42 points in 42 minutes (with 13r/6a to boot).

    KD's last game for Seattle? Let's hope not.

    Oden better have a few 20/20 games in him next year...

    Alright, I'll bite: Who killed the walrus? Was it Ron Artest?
