I’m feeling a great sense of entitlement today.

I’ve been legislatively designated a “non-gestating parent” and received a “save-the-date” card for Travis and Taylor’s wedding. Anyone know where they’re registered? Think they could use a toaster oven?

Anyway, this column is dedicated to the memory of Al McGuire, who, as an NBC college basketball analyst, showed up not knowing any of the players, but he sure knew the game — and the human condition.

At the half of games in which a team held a large lead and a lopsided shooting percentage, such as the Spurs did Wednesday, McGuire would warn that the game is far from over because the team shooting 60 to 70 percent could not and would not sustain such success. That team would have to come back to earth, perhaps with a thud.
