And then I wrote in my notebook, "Game over."

Wow, uhhhhh....you okay there, Albert? You seem sad.

I cannot wait for the Wall-Teague showdown in the next round. Whatever else the series delivers, it should deliver top-notch point guard play.

Great. Now the NFL will probably move to Ireland in order to minimize its tax bill.

When Olbermann takes this on — and I really believe he will, because there's nothing he likes more than a fight with his own network — it's going to be epic and it will probably be the end of SAS at ESPN. Beadle's stand may be braver, but Olbermann has a following that extends well beyond the world of sports. He may…

I tend to agree — but Coe never ran the 400m internationally, and he was a world record holder in the mile (or the 1500m — can never remember which one precisely) and won two Olympic golds at the longer distance.

Yeah, let's hold on here - Slaney was caught in an extremely questionable situation, at a highly susceptible age for a woman, when the hormones are starting to veer off the pattern of where they had been. Moreover, her 800m best was more than a decade before she failed this test.

This is magnificent. One of these days, Twitter will have its own Pulitzers, and the sports subtweet will be called the SVP.

Yeah — having run 4 marathons, and none at any competitive level, I had sympathy nausea watching this finish. Wow.

Would enjoy either GS or SA winning the title. But San Antonio vs. Atlanta in the finals would be an orgasm of beautiful ball movement and intelligent basketball.

Drew is very brave to be so public in his wrongness.

Was anyone else shocked at Tiger's hairline? Maybe I haven't been paying attention, but when he took his cap off after 18, I thought I was looking at Clyde Drexler in 1997.

But I'm sure that ended when you were 21....

Tiger is such an incredible drama queen. The guy seems to think he struggles more than anyone else — "if only you knew how hard I busted my butt to be back here." Listen, Tiger, buddy — ALL of you bust your asses to be the best. Your struggle is not unique. And at least Mickelson seems to be keeping his hair.

Goddamn, that is awesome.

Jesus, Drew — you DID let your mom dress you for this!

This dude gets it. Make it happen, Denton.

Just please tell me that he doesn't wear that shirt. Jesus, Drew — you still let your mom dress you?

Huh. I would have guessed that Derek Jeter would get better seats.

Yup. And identical stomach churning from 28 years ago....
