Meanwhile, my heart goes out to the family of Tim Russert. I had a deep respect for him. He was tough, and fair.

Journalism has lost a giant.

The detainees have obtained the right to "Petition" that their case be heard in a fed court. Its not a gauranteed. Their cases are not all being automatically transfered. I’m not too worried, yet.

These are the toughest times, the times when real things really matter and all the superfluous arguments seem trivial. And that's why God gave us sports. They're an acceptable and pleasant respite. Now, I'm a hater of the Evil Empires of sports. Yeah, my personal problem, okay. The NYYs. The Dallas Cowboys (and now the Patriots). The Gators. Etc. But in BBall it was not the Lakers, or Detroit, or the Bulls - it was the Celtics. True the Celtics had quite a long drought in recent history, but overall, over the years, no team in that sport has been more dominating than the BCs. So, I'm torn. I like the maturation and possible redemption of Bryant - both personally and professionally. But I love Garnett. If the BCs keep something like this team together for a while, we're in for a long BCs run. These teams are more than just the sum of one part each. Various players have been standing up at key points throughout the playoffs, often when least expected by the fans. And that's because these are the most well-coached teams in the league right now. The balance of rotation and strategic timing is par excellence on both sides. Amazing. JMJ I hope all goes well for your family and kin in these tough times.
