Walt Frazier Soundtrack

Walt "Clyde" Frazier is a man of style. Who else rode the NYC subways in the mid '70s dressed like this? Or slept in a round bed with a mirrored ceiling? Frazier is now the color commentator for the Knicks and has developed a unique and rather awesome vocabulary, which thanks to the good people at msg.com, is now a soundboard and somewhat addicting.

Candidates from the 10 Iowa counties who lost their races are entitled to free tickets. The game falls on the 14th anniversary of the controversial Bush-Gore presidential election.

Happy Anniversary (to me)

Our good friend Jimmy sent out this tweet yesterday marking his one-year anniversary at Fox, which means it's my one-year anniversary of running Hot Clicks. Just wanted to thank everyone for their support as traffic has remained steady and nobody has tried to fire me yet. As always, I want to hear from you so please email me (andy_gray@simail.com) any thoughts, criticism, praise, suggestions and everything in between.

Much Ado About Nothing?

Tony Allen is in the news after he smacked a camera, causing a small injury to the cameraman, during Monday's Grizzlies-Pelicans game. The cameraman in question, Bo Bradley, tweeted after the game that it was no big deal and people should focus on the Grizzlies' victory. Others thought it was a bigger deal. The NBA fined Allen fined $15,000 for the incident. Where do you stand?
