Oscar-winning actor Jack Nicholson turns 77 today, thus this gallery of his best NBA-related photos to mark the occasion. I also recommend this 1986 profile by Rick Reilly about Nicholson and his dedication to the Lakers:
"But as much as Nicholson loves the Oscars, had it not been for Toots's nomination he might have dumped them for the Lakers-San Antonio game that night at the Forum. Nicholson would rather guest-host Hollywood Squares for a week than miss a Laker home game. It's one of the six biggies -- skiing and sex, art and acting, books and basketball -- in his life, and nobody indulges his passions quite like Jack Nicholson. He spends at least three months a year in Aspen, has a reputation as a world-class womanizer, keeps a museum-quality collection of art in his house (the place is so stuffed that he hangs a Botero in the bathroom), is "one of the best actors Hollywood has ever produced," according to director Stanley Kubrick, can quote you everything from I Ching to Don King and, most of all, allows almost nothing to come between himself and his two $125-a-night seats at the Forum, three seats down from the visiting coach. And when the Lakers are on the road he's often there with them, wearing one of his 25 pairs of designer sunglasses. If he can't get to the game, the Lakers make him a tape—with Chick Hearn's broadcast voiced over—and express-mail it to him. Nicholson even has season tickets for the L.A. Clippers just so he can have a front-row seat when the Lakers play them."

Buffalo Jills Sue Buffalo Bills
I love this headline. As for the story, five members of the Bills cheerleading squad are claiming the team violated New York minimum wage laws. And I don't blame them for suing. They were allegedly unpaid for both games and practices and compensated with a $90 game ticket and parking pass. Even worse, they allegedly were required to buy 50-75 Buffalo Jills swimsuits calendars to resell on their own time and allegedly were subject to “an onerous set of rules dictating how the women could walk, talk, dress, speak and behave, both in uniform and in their personal lives.”
