The Hoop Life, a dramatic series about a pro basketball team not half as dysfunctional as the Knicks, premieres this week on Showtime (Sunday, 10 p.m.). Kevin Hooks, who played Thorpe on The White Shadow, directed the pilot.... Last Saturday on Fox's Game of the Week, Joe Buck watched Orioles Brady Anderson and Albert Belle nearly collide while chasing a fly and suggested that in the future Anderson should warn off Belle by yelling, "Media!" instead of "I got it!"
