Usually our police blotter focuses on more funny and lighthearted crime, like an ex-NBA player building a dirtbike track for underprivileged kids that’s a cover for a weed growing operation, but today entry is exponentially more serious and sad. Ex NBA player Javaris Crittenton was charged with the murder of an Atlanta woman. The story [...]

Friend of LolaSportsTalk, famous photographer and die-hard Mets fan Matthew Salacuse is going to be taking his talents to Citi Field next month and shooting a photo gallery documenting the contentious relationship between the Mets and Phillies.
