1. Stern thinking globally, but facing big issues at home (By Jan Hubbard, Myrtle Beach Sun News): A tongue-in-cheek but thought-provoking proposal: What if the NBA legalized marijuana?

2. Bring on Boston (By Gary Shelton, St. Petersburg Times): They're feeling frisky down in Florida, taking dead aim at the reigning World Series champions with an AL East-flavored ALCS looming.

3. With a prison term, maybe Simpson can find real killers (By Scott Ostler, San Francisco Chronicle): The author wonders whether O.J. will take advantage of the extra time on his hands and recommit himself to the hunt for the real killers.

4. Philadelphia turns from football town to baseball town (By Paul Hagen, Philadelphia Daily News): Phillies fever has swept a city typically dominated by the Eagles from October onward.

5. SMU drops restrictions for cheerleader with heart pacemaker (By Joanna Cattanach, Dallas Morning News): The sophomore cheerleader had previously been relegated to clapping on the sidelines with her teammates in dress clothes.
