...Harvard pitching was good, too, but B.C. struck early. In the second inning, facing Crimson starter Ryan Tsujikawa, Eagles left fielder Neal McCarthy walked and scored after a Mendoza double and a fielder's choice. Boston College also scored on a mental defensive mistake in the third inning. Shortstop Mike Hubbard singled down the right field line. Tsujikawa threw a wild pitch, but Lentz was slow to the ball and Hubbard was able to get all the way to third. He then scored on a sacrifice...
...Paul Walker: Basically, I was offered the part and it just took off from there. I didn't really have much time to research the role.

O.K., it was against the L.A. Clippers--Christina Aguilera could probably put up 40 points...
...earlier this season, Jackson handed out some reading. He gave several of the players books by mystery novelist Walter Mosley. He gave Harper Toni Morrison's Jazz. And he gave O'Neal a copy of Nietzsche's Ecce Homo (How One Becomes What One Is). "It is all my art and aim," Nietzsche writes, "to compose into one and bring together what is fragment and riddle and dreadful chance." Maybe that's what Jackson does: he brings together disparate players--fragments and riddles--and makes them one. Then, again, we are talking basketball here, and maybe all Jackson is trying...
