May 1 News and Notes

• Yep.  4-3 Florida in overtime!  The Bruins record season doesn't even win them a fucking series!  Abolish the Presidents Trophy NOW.   
• Until the last weekend of the regular season, the Golden State Warriors had only won nine games away from the Chase Center.  They've won four of their last six road contests, including a rout of Sacramento in Game 7 to face the Lakers.  I get the belief of marketability, but I have one more problem with it:  Wouldn't the first meaningful series between the Kings and Lakers since "The Greatest Tragedy In Sports" be marketable too -- or does the NBA not want that revisited???   
• Stephen Curry had a Game 7-record fifty points.
• Hey, both the A's (win #6 for April) and White Sox (#8) won Sunday!
• 10 days of the 17 complete in the Fantasy Faire, and they are just over half what they raised last year:  $52,600, approximately.
• Last year, first month of MLB games took three hours and three minutes, on average.
• This year, 2:36, a 15% reduction.
• 750 stolen base attempts, the most in MLB in a quarter century.
• And whaddya know, James Harden is back in the news:  Nightclub incident leaks out just before the start of the Sixers-Celtics series.
