Da-doo-Ron-Ron-Ron, da-doo Ron-Ron, it's the morning links:
Oh, that Ron Artest. He came into the ACC last night and walked out a loser -- barely -- the Raptors winning a thriller in OT. (Personal note: Sam Mitchell for Coach of the Year! Okay, Sam Mitchell has a pulse! On my first trip to the ACC this season, Sam shows he can indeed make a situational sub, putting Pape Sow out on Ron Artest on the Kings' next-to-last possession, and getting a turnover out of it. First he gets rid of the Boy GM, then he turns into a sideline genius. Coincidence? I think not.) Artest, who appears to be carrying a tire under his shirt -- always a possibility, although tire irons are more likely -- had 24 and 9, but as Dave Feschuk opines, the Kings are taking a huge gamble that'll never pay off.
Here's something new: a Dennis Rodman update that involves him actually playing basketball. Conquering adversity, too: "He also had to combat a nasty case of nipple chafing, the result of wearing two nipple rings roughly the shape and size of manhole covers, which required the hasty half-time application of surgical tape to allow him to continue."
Marcos Baghdatis may have lost the Australian Open final to Roger Federer, but he certainly didn't lose any fans.
Thanks to Deadspin for this one: Some guy claims to catch Doug Flutie's drop-kicked ball, fires off a fax to Patriots with a list of demands to turn the ball over, Patriots drop-kick his fax. Heartwarming stuff.
