TODAY’S TRIVIA — Almost Friday.

Morning thought bubble: It’s pretty crazy to me that the majority of the betting money was on the Mavs. This Celtics team has been the best all season. Maybe the Oilers can at least give us one last good series? Please.

The US Open tees off today in Pinehurst, North Carolina, where we hopefully will not have another arrest of a favorite.

The tournament returns to Pinehurst No. 2 for the first time since 2014 when Martin Kaymer won by 8 strokes. The purse was $8M back then whereas today’s will be $18.5M.

Who is the defending champion?
