A Clearly Linsane Mike Tyson Curses, Talks About His 3,000 Pigeons During MSG Interview

Mike Tyson was MSG Network's special halftime guest during tonight's broadcast of the Kings-Knicks game, and the interview was about as much of a trainwreck as you'd expect-though interviewer Jill Martin's somewhat to blame (at one point it sounds like she interprets Tyson's answer to "What sports do you like to watch?" as "baseball").

In Case You Missed It, Amber Riley Killed ‘I Will Always Love You' on Glee Last Night

Glee has become a disappointingly confusing clusterfuck of random ideas fit only for Hate Watching (seriously, I've been unhappy with almost every plotline since The Acafellas broke up) but last night, Mercedes - played by Amber Riley - sang the song Dolly Parton wrote in 1973 and Whitney Houston made megafamous in 1992, "I Will Always Love You."

Mysterious Trailer Teases Unknown Game

I fall for puzzles and mysteries. Put a code in front of me, or a series of entirely unrelated clues, and I will sit there for hours if I have to, attempting to solve it.
