Cheers
• To the Faith 7 Classic exploits of Willie Warren (41 points) and Keiton Page (37). They are different players with different upsides, but it's going to be fun watching Warren at OU and Page at OSU next season.

• To Fresno State baseball. Only the Bulldogs reached the College World Series on road victories. All seven other CWS teams played regional and Super Regional games in the cushy comforts of home.

• To NBC's prime-time telecasts of the U.S. Open. The San Diego-locale of Torrey Pines allows the tournament to finish at 9 p.m. in Middle America and 10 p.m. in the East, which should make for great television this weekend.

Jeers
• To ESPN's broadcast team for the NBA Finals on ABC. Mike Breen, Mark Jackson and Jeff Van Gundy? Where's Bill Walton? Where's Mike Tirico and Hubie Brown? Where's TNT, with Marv Albert and Kevin Harlan and Doug Collins and Reggie Miller? The Super Bowl gives you Al Michaels and John Madden. The NBA Finals give you Mike Breen and Jeff Van Gundy.

• To Roger Federer, who still can't win the French Open. Until you win on clay, big boy, hold off on that greatest-ever tag.

• To the hype surrounding Big Brown. Hasn't the last decade proved that winning the Derby and the Preakness, no matter the margin, means nothing in the Belmont?
