Today's Sports Birthday
Kim Jong Il would have turned 70 today, but since he's no longer with us we'll honour former tennis star John McEnroe. McEnroe, a winner of seven Grand Slam championships, turns 53-years old today.

Orlando Magic head coach Stan Van Gundy joined the Dan LeBatard Show on 790 The Ticket in Miami and was asked what's one thing about the media that annoys him. Van Gundy took aim at narrative, via Sports Radio Interviews:
