Lady Vols are still amazing. (& It's good to be an A-Rod.)

At least ONE Tennessee team remembers how to play basketball.

The Tennessee women's basketball team is awesome. Plain and simple. After tonight's win over Texas A&M, though, I just hope Candace Parker's shoulder is going to be OK. You know what else is awesome? Cake. Better yet: Tennessee Volunteer cake. This piece of cake was enthusiastically delivered to my door after the Lady Vols won. I'm not sure how they managed to put orange and white checkers in it, but I am thoroughly amazed.

Also, we all learned today that Alex Rodriguez makes more than the entire Florida Marlins roster combined. Here is the AP story. Apparently, A-Rod makes $28 million. That's $6.2 million more than the Marlins' tiny $21.8 million payroll. All that money, ladies and gentlemen, and A-Rod still can't hit in the playoffs. Incredible.
