...over the top-seeded Dallas Mavericks, injecting himself into the action by ejecting Golden State forward Stephen Jackson with nine seconds left for that vile, repugnant offense - sarcastic clapping. Jackson, admittedly, is no choir boy: he received a 30-game suspension for his role in the notorious Pistons-Pacers brawl of '04. But the ejection was just silly, and it's only the latest instance of hot-headed NBA officials stealing the limelight by flaunting their power on the court...

Three and a half years later, Chazz is drunk and disgraced impersonating a wizard in some Podunk lounge act on ice, and Jimmy is peddling sports equipment at a Ski 'n Shred. But they love skating more than...
...heated debates over the Financial Committee’s (FiCom) grants packages. Representatives from the Harvard College Democrats and the Harvard Republican Club were present to lobby against the UC’s decision to fund less than a third of the grant requested for the 2007 Bipartisan Paintball Brawl. After discussion over the role of precedents in granting UC funding, and whether or not the UC should fund entertainment activities, the council voted to grant the full amount requested by the organizers of the event...
