Wednesday Morning Starting Five: The Tax Day Edition

I’ll have a Celtics piece up on SLAM as soon as it’s posted. Crossed off one of the people I most wanted to interview last night in Cheryl Miller. The GOAT gave me great stuff. Have a great Wednesday afternoon and evening.

Are the Celtics too old to repeat? (Temple 3)

Cameron Maybin is looking forward to wearing 42. (Sun Sentinel)

LeBron James’ Jewish connection. (Forward.com)

5 Villanova students arrested for stealing from Lincoln Financial Field (Philly.com)

Did Jesse Jackson Jr. raise 5 million in exchange for Senate seat? (Chicago Sun Times)

Sylvester Brown speaks out regarding his termination (The St. Louis American)

Get it!

    Mizzo: I had to check out the link to LBJ. The first comment was a little out of hand, for my part, and I had to swing a bolo or two.

    Indeed, Michael. How would that ignorant child know anything about Bavli? How would he know anything about anything?

    Then again, maybe his curiousity has been fueled by his unfortunate run in with Annie Liebowitz and her King Kong montage.

    Maybe he’s become aware of an ancestral connection to the Lemba. Who’s knows. Either way, there is little place for smug folks like you, Mr. Kress, who’ve also come to this particular faith by way of conversion. You may be able to go back a few centuries, but if you’re honest — and keep going — you’ll find that convert…won’t you?!?

    So, pipe down and have a little humility about yourself.

    I guess folks’ memories are getting short, but there millions of people who still know that Europeans are late comers to the faith of Judaism. They get a little carried away with themselves on that tip — and need to chill. Anyway, if LBJ decides to follow in Reggie White’s footsteps, he wouldn’t be the first or the last.

    Folks really, really shouldn’t get too excited with themselves. Ain’t no burnished bronze in Europe — unless it came with Hannibal or Tarik or Madonna, by way of Malawi.

    BTW — thanks for the link love.

    Oh wow…..I thought it was five 15-yr-olds from the AP story on ESPN

    Its five college students who tried this little felonious prank.
