Trey Lyles = Kevin McCallister

Kentucky coach John Calipari botched this morning's head count before taking off for Baton Rouge, leaving him with the horrifying realization that he accidentally left forward Trey Lyles behind in Lexington. Eventually, Lyles was found and made the trip, but not before Twitter had a little bit of fun at his expense.

Larry Bird's Trash Talk Was Also Legendary

In anticipation of the Hawks' visit to Boston on Wednesday, the Boston Herald's Steve Bulpett published a great piece on Dominique Wilkins' first encounter with Larry Bird during his rookie season, in 1982, during which Bird had some pretty fantastic trash talk for the Human Highlight Film. Larry Legend clearly knew how to get into the head of his opponents. If that tickles your fancy, you can also check out this gallery of the 10 Most Entertaining NBA Players of All Time.

Super Investment

In this morning's Hot Clicks, there was a story about a 1937 Blackhawks sweater being valued at $7,000-$10,000 at auction. Well, a couple from North Carolina unknowingly purchased one of Vince Lombardi's West Point sweaters for 58 cents at a Goodwill Store... and its estimated value is way, way higher than that.

Lovely Lady of the Day

This afternoon's LLOD honors go to last year's Swimsuit Rookie of the Year, Sara Sampaio. The 23-year old became the first Portuguese model to appear in the Swimsuit Issue and, as you can see, she was definitely worth the wait. (Click here for full-sized gallery.)

The 1991 NBA All-Star Game Was 24 Years Ago Today

Robbed!

This dance-off between Virginia fans at a game this week was pretty great, but I don't agree with their chosen victor.
