As a youngster, I spent hours trying to think of a way to make Kelly Kapowski break up with Zack Morris so she could date me. It turns out I wasn't alone. Clippers All-Star Chris Paul turned 29 yesterday and received the greatest gift ever - an autographed photo of Tiffani Thiessen (the actress who played Kapowski) in all her Saved by the Bell glory.

Randy Johnson Is Back
When we last heard from Randy Johnson, he was pursuing his post-baseball career as a photographer. Apparently the lure of baseball and bad Japanese television was too much to keep him off the mound. The Big Unit is now appearing on a Japanese game show in which celebrities get 10 pitches to try to get a hit off him. This is worth checking out for the throat-slash GIF alone.
Lamest Bet Ever
If the Rangers win the Stanley Cup, New York governor Andrew Cuomo will receive "an organic, lightly salted brown rice cake and a book on the history of California." If the Kings win, California governor Jerry Brown will receive "a Taste NY gift basket full of New York products like chicken wing sauce (but not wings) from Buffalo's Anchor Bar, wings and wine" as well as a "year-old hockey puck the governor had made up last year to commemorate a 'hat trick' of three straight on-time budgets."

Yo Bartender. Jobu Has a Baseball Card
Last month we learned that Jobu, the voodoo doll from Major League, was getting his own bobblehead doll to celebrate the movie's 25th anniversary. Now comes word that Topps has created the first official Jobu baseball card as part of a spin-off set honoring the movie.

Congrats (I think) to retired outfielder David Justice, who will appear on Celebrity Wife Swap Tuesday night and trade spouses with Dweezil Zappa. Justice, who may be best known as the former Mr. Halle Berry, played in the famous 1992 Rock 'N Jock baseball game and hung out with Ken Griffey Jr. and Barry Bonds.
