Pulling out all the stops
On their second day blogging for Page 2, Graham Hays and Eric Neel are picking up the pace:GH: How did Speedy Claxton choose Hofstra over Murray State? "Speedy Racer" would have been a national icon.
EN: Seventeen bonus points for remembering Claxton was a Hofstra man. Six more if you know Hofstra's mascot without having to look it up.
GH: Dutchmen!
EN: You mean Ragin' Dutchmen, don't you?
GH: Right, those Dutch are a fiery people.
EN: Just look at Rik Smits.
ESPN's bloggers have today arranged an all-star cast, calling out Popeye Jones, Speedy Claxton, Rik Smits and Greg Ostertag in little more than an hour. Here's hoping they don't go for the jugular; a reference to Ed O'Bannon, Tate George or God Shamgod.
