BOSTON -- The Boston Celtics again stand alone among NBA champions. Jayson Tatum had 31 points, 11 assists and eight rebounds as the Celtics topped the Dallas Mavericks 106-88 on Monday night to win the franchise’s 18th championship, breaking a tie with the Los Angeles Lakers for the most in league history. Boston earned its latest title on the 16th anniversary of hoisting its last Larry O’Brien Trophy in 2008.

For the last two years or so, Fox has been off in my house. I only watch on THEIR bad days - because one of my weaknesses is that I love watching scumbags suffer and get stupid.

Him along with a couple of females and Sheppie are repulsively biased which is now festered and oozing out.

CNN's New Year's Eve coverage featured Anderson Cooper and Kathy Griffin in NYC and then had various anchors/reporters at other locations. They put Brooke Baldwin and Don Lemon together in New Orleans. They cut to them throughout the night, and at 12:30, they went to them for the last half hour of live coverage to ring in the new year in New Orleans which is in Central time zone. Don Lemon was clearly drunk when they came on the air at 8:00. As the night wore on, he climbed up on the bar, was pouring drinks, drinking drinks, doing shots,...

Am I being too critical or does FNC (Fox & Friends) weekends simply stink up the place? Alison Cammarotta is a beautiful women...but doggoneit she is so naive...

What are the political ramifications of "Memogate," (search) CBS's alleged exposé of President Bush's military records that turned out to be false? Was Kerry's campaign involved? We ask the experts: Geraldine Ferraro, former vice presidential nominee, and Dick Armey, former House majority leader.
