Little Internet Nuggets of Knowledge (L.I.N.K.s)

Welcome to The Serious Tip's 100th post. Today I am going to share some Internet love and give you some places to go and things to read.

-- Thanks to a link provided by one of his readers, Bill Simmons clued us in to WWE's "Where are they now?" site. Well, several of these WWE legends will be in action in Melbourne, Florida on May 12th in Mayhem in Melbourne II, also featuring The Serious Tip favorite Bryan Manson.

-- One of my favorite non-sports Blogs to read at work is the White Dade. Totally agree with him on his view on women and baseball.

-- By and large, I stayed quiet on the Don Imus fiasco of a few weeks back, but political rapper Paris didn't, writing a pretty stinging piece linking Imus's comments to social laziness by the recording industry.

-- A little international knowledge for you: Pakistan's largest gun market - you will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villiany. But people gotta make a livin' somehow, right?

-- So what do Jon Matlack, Amos Otis, John Stearns, Pat Zachary, Frank Tanana, Hubie Brooks, and Howard Johnson have in common? Besides playing integral roles in Mets' history, they are all members of One More Dying Quail's Bizarro Hall of Fame, a place where players who received no votes on their Cooperstown Hall of Fame ballots are revered and celebrated.

-- The wisen philosophs over at Thunder Matt's Saloon want your opinion on the greatest first baseman of the 1990s. What, no Rico Brogna or David Segui?

-- And on a final note, I am still writing over at YAYsports, at least until the Cavalier gets back.


That is all.
