Do you pay more attention to the action on the field or the action in their pants? Uh, well it depends on how close I can get, you know? (Laughs) Let’s say you’re watching it on TV. OK, so maybe they’ll do a close up of someone and I can watch them stretching. You know, I enjoy that.

What’s the best sport to watch on TV for those purposes? Well I’d have to say college baseball because they’re not wearing the baggy pants as much as the pro guys are now. I can always check that kind of stuff out.

LOS ANGELES — Lamar Odom and Khloe Kardashian have tied the knot. The 29-year-old Los Angeles Lakers forward and the 25-year-old reality TV starlet were married Sunday at a private residence in Beverly Hills. The bride was walked down Khloe Kardashian the aisle by her stepfather, Bruce Jenner. Odom’s teammates Luke Walton and Sasha Vujacic attended the ceremony, along with Lakers coach Phil Jackson. Kardashian appears with her family on “Keeping Up With the Kardashians.” She and her sister Kourtney co-star in the E! spinoff show, “Kourtney and Khloe Take Miami.” Odom agreed to a four-year contract to stay with the Lakers this summer after helping the team win the franchise’s 15th NBA championship in June. — The Associated Press
Digital Darkness
Author Anthony Zuiker, creator of the television crime drama “CSI”, dubs the thrilling series debut, Level 26, the world’s first “digi-novel.” In an effort to inspire audiences not just to “read” the book but to “experience” it, the author offers an integrated mashup of both literary text and cinematic clips on websites referenced in the book to tell the story of serial killer profiler and tracker Steve Dark. As the head of a highly classified governmental agency that hunts the world’s most violent serial killers, Dark has the ability to assume the killer’s mindset as he tracks them down and brings them to justice.
