Three years and six days ago, the statement came with the customary Rick Pitino flourish of counterfeit finality. “My passion in basketball started in New York and will end there at Iona College,” he said upon being named the coach of the Gaels. Right state, wrong school, it turned out.

• If you’re surprised at all at Roger Goodell getting another extension—his fourth since becoming commissioner in 2006—don’t be. To understand what the owners want from him is to understand what the league has wanted from him since appointing him 17 years ago.
