# Men's Vogue has a dynamite profile of Elisha Nelson Manning, the greatest hero in all of sports. Hat-tip to New York magazine's Daily Intelligencer blog, which put the Eli profile side-by-side with Esquire's verbose hagiography of Tom Brady. I could go on and on about how gross the Brady interview is, but I think the subhead speaks for itself: "New England Patriots Quarterback Tom Brady will go down in history as the greatest football player never to go down in history. And he's still smiling." Huh?
# This is a video of Summer Streets, a program that New York is trying out on three weekends in August. They basically shut down seven miles worth of Park Avenue and Lafayette Street to cars, and host a ton of programs, vendors, and activities. Based on the unadulterated joy in this video, and this glowing editorial in the Times, I'd say that people are really into this thing. Are you reading, Boston? Maybe shutting down Boylston Street from Mass Ave. to Charles Street? Eh?
# LOL Bush. 'Nuff said.
# And finally, a no-brainer. The Olympics have handball and not bowling? Cmon!
