    Movie plot holes

    In The Big Game in "All The Right Moves," Tom Cruise's team has apparently won the game with a goal-line stand.

    2020-21 College Basketball thread

    How many true buzzer-beaters have there been in the Final Four? Talking game-winning baskets that go through with triple zeroes. Off the top of my head: • Gonzaga-UCLA 2021 • Villanova-North Carolina 2016 • Kentucky-Duke 1992 • North Carolina State-Houston 1983 Kentucky-Duke was a regional final.

    Dan Jenkins profiled Joe Namath for Sports Illustrated when the Jets quarterback was at the height of his Broadway Joe stardom. His opening paragraph describing a most-eligible bachelor scoping out the young lovelies in a bar deserved a chef’s kiss. Stoop-shouldered and sinisterly handsome, he...
