Nearly 3 years since we lost our beloved Burly, we are so fortunate to rescue/adopt my newest best bud, an 83-pound, 10-month-old bundle of slobbering affection, Bentley. Spent his first 4 months riding in a Midwest semi, then 6 months in a Rhode Island apartment.

Sad & awful news. Fred Cranwell, my mentor & friend for so long, died Sunday after fighting brain cancer. Just a truly good guy. A journalistic genius of legendary kindness, Fred helped so many: he gave me one of my first jobs at the Hudson Dispatch in Union City NJ. RIP Fred

Beyond his obvious talents and abilities, Sekou Smith was first and foremost a truly great guy, simply a nice man who had time and a smile for everybody. Condolences and prayers to his family.

They say u see something new every day. Visiting son/wife in Alabama, have seen the "Beef Jerky Outlet" (who needs that much jerky?); restaurant devoted to chicken fingers; car with South Carolina plate in back New York plate in front; TV commercial for best gun cabinets anywhere

The SI purge is sickening. Even these days they were doing stories no one else was. Will happily cancel a subscription I've had since 1963 when Willie Gallimore was on the cover, and I used to run to the mailbox and read it immediately. Best of luck to those left in the lurch

In an attempt to make MSG the "Mecca" again in the wake of Suday's disaster and appease fans, the #Knicks are giving Charles Oakley a lifetime season ticket with courtside seats

You do realize that by the end of the night, every #BrooklynNets fan will swear the Earth is flat. And they’ll insist Achilles was the starting power forward for the first ever game at Barclays Center

So is it safe to say that 2019’s group of signings will surpass 2010’s class of Travis Outlaw, Johan Petro, Anthony Morrow and Jordan Farmar in importance for the #Nets? Petro did average 3.5 points the next year after all

Lost our buddy late Sunday. He gave us 15 years of unquestioned love and loyalty. To steal a phrase, I wish I could be half the man my dog thought I was. R.I.P. Burly

Great #BrooklynNets playoff moments No. 2 Game 4 East semis 2002 v #Hornets Jason Kidd banged heads w/David Wesley in G3 needed head stitched. Most thought he'd sit G4 Lucious Harris sed "He looked like he went 10 rounds with Mike Tyson" Kidd: 24 pts, 11 reb, 8 asst. Nets win

Great #BrooklynNets playoff moments: No. 1 2002 deciding Game 5 first round v #Pacers. #Nets win 120-109 in 2 OT. Greatest game I ever saw (beats Bird-Dominique '88 Game 7). Net Aaron Williams in lockerroom sez, "My the time we get home it will be on TV as an ESPN classic"

With #BrooklynNets facing #Sixers in playoffs we are reminded of 1984 1st round when Nets upset defending champs in 5 games. With road team winning EVERY game, Nets C Mike Gminski offered memorable line: "There's no place like away."
