    News Flash! First endorsement of 2007 race goes to John Dougherty... 's nickname?

    In the Daily News, gossip columnist Dan Gross revealed that the first major player to offer an endorsement (scroll down past the part about the porn star auditions) in the race for mayor is... Kyle Korver? Ok, check that, first defensively-challenged, 3-point specialist, back-up shooting guard to offer an endorsement.

    To both Korver's and Dougherty's credit, this announcement came during an event highlighting their consider work with charities. Dougherty is the president of the local chapter of Variety, The Children's Charity and Korver has done a number of charitable works including "Kyle's Coat Drive."

    Not mentioned in the article was the attempt by Korver, who is generally regarded as resembling a certain host of the MTV show Punk'd, to trick Dougherty into thinking that Congressman Brady was stealing his car... (oh snap, Johnny Doc, you got Punk'd!)

    No similar endorsements yet for "Mikey Nuts," "Tommy Knoxville," "Jonny Sides," "D-EV" or... well... "Chaka Fattah." (What can I say? It's a great name... and Stephen Colbert agrees)
