They point to how the comments are no fluke. That qualifies as our sport of politics section tonight. In our politics of sports section, we mark the 50th anniversary of Wilt Chamberlain’s 100-point game. A Facebook commenter created an opportunity for Mark to demonstrate his gift for remembering the minutiae of baseball facts about players like Mel Ott. We also unwrap, and display for the world to see, the results of our Oscar picks from last week. (Let’s just say the three of us are keeping our day jobs). Also from my Facebook page, we were also able to surprise Mark with a blast from the past. Thanks for watching and have a great weekend. Justin Scuiletti shot and edited this video.
