Apparently because its below 32 degrees, my home internet connection is slow as molasses.
Marquette beat Chicago State last night.
What those highlights don't show you were the 129 fouls called by the refs last night. I'll let Rosiak say it best, from his game story, "Overall, the game was tough on the eyes thanks in large part to a crew of officials that apparently believed it was being paid by the whistle. There were 56 fouls called - 28 in each half - and 68 total free-throws shot." In a meaningless game like that, there is no reason whatsoever for the officials to control the game. None. Besides that, Wesley Matthews continues to stand out at as the solid scorer for Marquette. Right now they have no go-to 3 point shooter. #3 for Chicago State, David Holston, is barely 5'2' and was a Stephen Curry type of shooter. Everything he tossed up, went in. Marquette couldn't stop him. It's UWM vs. MU on Saturday night. Our own Todd Welter has an audio recap of the game.

Much better Charissa, much better.
Bart agrees with me on the NL MVP. Of course in 2006, a month after leading the Cardinals to the World Series crown, Pujols carped when Howard -- whose Phillies missed the playoffs -- captured the coveted award. "I see it this way: Someone who doesn't take his team to the playoffs doesn't deserve to win the MVP." Wonder if he still feels that way.
Give it up for the World of Isaac for having Rosie Perez explain overtime rules to Mr. McNabb.
Just disturbing. (h/t deadspin)
