Another victory

Signal to Noise directs our attention to a note in this article that LT (the original, better one, that actually showed up for playoff games, Ladainian) took 18 grand off Michael Jordan in golf last week in Palm Beach. Why is this notable? LT was, of course, the leader of the great Giants defense of the 80s, the last great defense I got to cheer. MJ was the premier villain of the NBA in the 90s, constantly stopping the progress of those good but never quite good enough Pat Riley Knicks. So less than a month after the Giants toppled the Evil Empire in the Super Bowl, LT takes money out of Jordan's already depleted (thanks to the divorce) pockets.

Oh, and did I mention Johan is pitching tomorrow? It's been a good month.

You know, just, uh, hope that Johan doesn't strain a hammy or something covering first base. Those things can take forever for pitchers to get over.
