As you guys know, I'm sorta into Twitter (follow me!). I've been following Rangers pitcher C.J. Wilson (@str8edgeracer) for about a year and always found him to be entertaining and interesting. After reading his recent Tweets about his love of Lost and SI Swimsuit model Irina Shayk, I asked Wilson (via some Twitter stalking) if he would do a Q&A for Hot Clicks and he said yes. It turned out to be a long conversation about baseball, Twitter, TV shows, swimsuit models and much more.

No Sex For You!

King Talks To King James
LeBron James, Larry King :: CNN
LeBron James taped an interview with Larry King yesterday that will air on CNN this Friday. One key exchange was the following:

King: You haven't made a decision yet, is that correct?

James: Correct.

King: OK. Would you say, all things being equal, you're close?

James: I'm far from close.

King: Far from close?

James: Yes. I don't -- I don't -- honestly, I haven't -- because July is still a month away, less than a month away. So I haven't -- I haven't began to, you know -- I've thought about it, but I haven't began to strategize exactly.

Here is a transcript from the show.
One More LeBron Item...
Last week Hot Clicks told you about the site Send LeBron To Chicago, which was trying to raise money to put up a LeBron James billboard. They got the funds.

Blog News
The Big Lead, which many of you know is often linked to here in Hot Clicks, was just sold for an amount in the low seven figures. I want to congratulate TBL and let the rest of you know that if you've ever thought of starting a sports blog, now is the time. Also, the third installment of Blogs with Balls takes place this weekend in Chicago. Several top bloggers will speak about their experiences, so if you're in the blog world and can attend, I suggest you do.
Sports Video Of The Day
This was Hockey Night in Canada's opening to Game 2 of the Stanley Cup. It features Don Cherry as the Phantom of the Opera. Enough said.

Rant Of The Day
Jack Harry, the sports anchor at NBC's Kansas City affiliate KSHB, destroys the Royals.

Larry King Video Of The Day
Since Larry King is in the sports news today, I thought we should enjoy this classic clip of Jerry Seinfeld getting a bit frustrated with the host.
