Leading Off (2/16/10)

1. The saga of Willis Willis continues in an Austin courtroom today. Dear Texas Lottery Commission: Seriously, give this awesomely named fella his paper already. Sincerely, Charles “Bananas” Foster

2. The Sixth Floor Museum has obtained what it’s calling the best home movie footage of JFK’s arrival in Dallas on — nope. Can’t finish that sentence. Sorry. Unless someone comes forward with a gun, a picture of someone besides Lee Harvey Oswald holding said gun, and a signed confession from the aforementioned, why are we still talking about this? Even Oliver Stone doesn’t care anymore.

3. While at Cowboys Stadium, I saw many crimes of fashion. As it turns out, one woman in town for the game committed a literal crime of fashion, making off with $90,000 worth of furs, and possibly a walk-on part in the next Young Jeezy video.

BONUS: Speaking of the ASG, here is one last video from the gang at The Basketball Jones, with a cameo from Herr Dirk Werner Nowitzki.
