1. Given the choice to play for the Mad Russian and Jay-Z in Brooklyn or play your home games in the mecca that is Madison Square Garden, which option would you choose? The Knicks vs. Nets discussion, all of a sudden, is a real one.

2. If Chipper Jones continues to contribute on a regular basis, do you really think he will hang up the cleats this season?

3. How can "Friday Night Lights" get 3 million viewers and "Wipe Out" get 17 million? Trust me, there has never been a finer acted show in TV history than that -- and no, I am not talking about "Wipe Out."

4. Why are the sandwiches and now the burger at Muss and Turner’s in Vinings so much better than anywhere else in town? Good news by the way: that same team just took over the recently closed Joel space over at I-75 and West Paces Ferry. Very similar neighborhood vibe -- a place to follow.

5. How in the hell did the Boston Celtics let Ron Artest be the hero of the NBA Finals? I have promised myself that I will never ever sit in front of any channel long enough to let me watch that play again. As soon as they show Kobe passing it off to him I will be watching the Lifetime channel.

12. With all the money that "Sex in the City" has made by getting in the film business, can David Chase and the cast of "The Sopranos" really resist making that Sopranos movie in the next few years?

13. How do people really go a month without eating pizza, pasta or sandwiches? What legitmate joy is in those "no carbers" lives?

14. If Chris Paul ended up in Orlando, can you really say that they would not roll to an NBA title?

15. Has there ever been a worse decision-maker than Michael Vick? You really need to invite strangers to your birthday party at some Mexican joint in Virginia Beach, and charge them fifty bucks to be a VIP? Who did you think would show up to that, the local church group up the street?

16. What person on the planet could listen to the Zac Brown Band song “Toes” and not say that they feel a whole lot better?

17. Is there any reason in the world to not be really happy for how things worked out for Jeff Francoeur? I know I know -- it’s still the Mets.

18. What kind of sick, evil soul says and thinks the kind of things that Mel Gibson comes up with (Check out Radaronline if you are wondering of what I speak)?
