Our beloved handyman has passed away this week, suddenly. Although well beyond his retirement years, he was still doing handy work upon his death. I’ll miss him for his unannounced visits bearing gifts on Christmas, or dropping everything to stop by during a house emergency. Even as I remember the little spackle job that went awry in my old bedroom, i still think of Mr. Davis. We’ll miss you! Do you have a favorite Mr. Davis story?…

Hey guys, its that time of the year. It was such a big hit on flipcyde, I thought I’d ask the brain trust their professional opinion on who’s a lock to win every weekend. Thanks to you guys, I crushed a field of over 20 teams, let’s hope I can kick butt again this year!

Andre Agassi’s final match drew the highest overnight rating on American television for the first Sunday of the U.S. Open since 1990.

Agassi’s four-set loss to Benjamin Becker drew an average household rating of 3.0, up 30 percent from last year’s 2.3 on the equivalent afternoon.

Sunday’s rating peaked with a 4.3 rating at the conclusion of the match, which featured a tearful on-court goodbye from Agassi to the crowd.

The rating is the percentage of all U.S. homes with TVs, whether or not they are in use. Overnight ratings measure the largest American TV markets, covering about 70 percent of the country.

Attendance at the Open is also up, with first-week ticket sales exceeding 400,000 — 406,040 — for the first time. - CBS Sportsline
