    Can always count on national basketball media to be immature and low-brow.

    Freud has some serious thoughts on the copywriter who used that title's relationship with his mother.

    I don't see anything wrong with it.

    Maybe should have used #2, but it's probably the copy editor who decided it because of space considerations.

    After game four, the headline will be "Rockets Enjoy Clean Sweep."

    Isn't it about our being 2nd ranked in the West? There's a secondary headline

    If the Chronicle didn't do anything stupid at this time of the year, I'd be disappointed. It's tradition.
