The Pittsnogle is back for another college season! YES!



Kevin Pittsnogle- a favorite of these two bloggers- did what many ambitious young college men do these days- declare for the NBA draft to gauge what they have to work on to earn a paycheck in the Association. Kevin couldn't hit his shots but didn't sign with an agent. He is on his way back to the West Virginia campus, where he can again be feted with women, wine, and strangers yelling his last name. Like these two bloggers do. The advice for the summer: drink lots of water, and enjoy your summer, but don't get all Pittsnogled.

Bill Laimbeer is now part of the great media semi-soap that is Isiah's coaching search. I am sure he is calling everyone he knows and asks them "hey... think you can deal with a man who calls himself Starbury? Please? Please?"

For those of us who live in Queens, I suppose we all knew that the doomed West Side Olympic plan would come to our fair low-rise borough, where everything is a little cheaper, and the people are a little more settled. We're okay with that. Williamsburg will get a velodrome and perhaps a pool. Queens will get a much less budget Shea. And Olympians will finally discover the Lemon Ice King of Corona, which will put "World Famous" on the marquee.

But where will the Olympians stay? Please let it be Manhattan. Can Corona handle an Olympic village? They can't handle the people they have NOW.
