Lost Time Is Not Found Again: March 19, 2009
Lost Time Is Not Found Again is what the MPS blog crew has been reading today. Maybe.
+ World’s colliding: our own Will Brinson has our own Eamonn Brennan on FanHouse’s podcast. {FanHouse.}
+ Brad Miller replicates dunks from past dunk contests by touching his ceiling. {Blowtorch.}
+ Boston Celtics dancing boy hits “Ellen.” {The Hoop Doctors.}
+ Memo to Barack Obama, please save the Cotton Bowl. {Dr. Saturday.}
+ Non-sports: Gmail adds photo and Yelp previews in chat. {Official Gmail Blog.} Vampire Weekend preforms “White Sky” on Jimmy Fallon. {Stereogum.}
Quotable:
“Another thing I like to do is point out the absurdity of the annual publicity-stunt claim by a Chicago consulting firm that the NCAA Tournament costs American business some tremendous and entirely fictional amount of money. Challenger Gray & Christmas gets its name in the paper — sorry, its name in the blogosphere nowdays — with this stuff every year, and good for Challenger Gray. I admire the ability to get mentioned and am happy to support it.
The main thing this publicity does for Challenger Gray is let potential clients know that the firm is comfortable with shoddy analysis based on faulty assumptions, and that’s giving the company the benefit of the doubt that it doesn’t just invent facts to lead to the conclusions it thinks will best benefit Challenger Gray.
Hire away, American corporations! These guys can really help.” – King Kaufman
