Everything But the Tourney: Stokke Competitor, More Knicks Love , A.I. Gridiron Highlights, the Other-Other College Hoops Tournament and More!

Happy hump day, ye loyal followers. Our last boatload of posts has been NCAA Tourney-related, and we simply need a break. Here's what we're finding intriguing from the rest of the blog universe. The madness will commence soon enough. Calm yourselves...

Stokke Competition? (Fan IQ)

The fine folks at Fan IQ have managed to ruffle the feathers of the millions of Allison Stokke devotees out there by claiming (gasp!) that there may be another semi-attractive pole vaulter to whom we should pay some attention. Meet Melanie Adams. Resist the urge to insert pole-related commentary here...ok...moving on.

Congratulations on Making the College Basketball Invitational! Wait, what? (Hell Yes, Guy!)

Hell Yes, Guy! reminds us that there's another tourney besides the one starting tomorrow. Oh, yea, and it's not the NIT. It must be such a thrill for those programs.

Playing with Your Monkey (Sports by Brooks)
Wait, real rally monkeys in the clubhouse? We're in. Why can't Pedro get on this? Screw the midgets.

Why I Hate the Knicks? Is that a Real Question? (Can't Stop the Bleeding)
You know we have much love for the local beat reporters at LCG, particularly those who get the rare gift bestowed upon them to cover the Knicks. And while we are dedciated Marc Berman followers, the Daily News' Frank Isola is climbing up our list for comments like these.

A.I. Was Also the Answer on the Gridiron (Larry Brown Sports)
Like LBS, I'd somehow never seen these Iverson football highlights. Frankly, I'm kind of disappointed in myself. We take pride her in having watched and talked about these kind of clips...like way before others. Speaking of which, did you know Nate Robinson also played football at Washington? Oh, you did...uhhh, forget it then...
