The New Jersey Nets lost their 18th game in a row to start the 2009-2010 NBA season. The ignominious distinction is observed by the backpages of both New York City tabloids today.

I like to think this is happening because the Nets took “NEW JERSEY” off of the road uniforms. Their owner, Bruce Ratner, has been trying to move them to Brooklyn for years and seems to be getting closer. I’d rather they stay in the Garden State and move into the Prudential Center in Newark where the NHL Devils play.

I wonder if the new BS Sports Blog will comment on this development.

Speaking of the NBA, the Washington Wizards have won 4 of 5 (The Post). Where can I get my Earl Boykins jersey?
