Purrr...: Fans of the expansion Charlotte Bobcats got a bit of a surprise when dialing the ticket info line listed in their phone book: a referral to a phone sex line.

This, of course, is a brilliant marketing tie-in by Charlotte. Watch for new ads naming the sexline as a title sponsor, featuring taglines such as: "We'll make ya dribble!" "Be like the Bobcats and score often!" "We're takin' it to the hole!" "We'll work our Magic on your Johnson!" "And now a word from our spokesman ... Patrick Ewing." Haven't we done this joke before?

Emeka Okafor takes one hard to the hole and is served up a facial from Theo Ratliff.

None of this beats the NHL's "2 minutes in the box for holding the stick." *Sigh*, I miss hockey...
