Casual Friday Sixers Links: An Interview With Marc Zumoff. Yeah, That Happened

Welcome to another edition of Casual Friday Sixers Links!

Housekeeping:

• The only sports team with the letters C, E, L, T, and I in them I know of are Celtic F.C. of the Scottish Premier League. That basketball team from Boston is a figment of your imagination. They only exist in your nightmares starring Doug Collins. From now until this coming Wednesday we shall treat them as such.

• Missing you, sanity.

• Be on the look out for a lot of cool stuff dropping later today at Liberty Ballers
