You may have noticed a new author at the site yesterday. Zach Langdon, formerly of the Boiling Points, saw a bunch of his contributors scatter and his site fold up recently. I contacted him to see if he was interested in joining up so he could keep writing and he was more than eager. So, we have another blog merger as Zach has come on to provide a different voice and perspective. As you saw from his first entry on coach painter at the Final Four, his work is excellent. I'm excited to add him to the team here at H&R.
Now, on to today's links:
