The Cockfight, a painting by Frans Snyders Tuesday, May 19 , 2009 Puzzle by Damon J. Gulczynski, edited by Will Shortz COCKTAIL (19A. Tom Collins or Rob Roy) gives its’ tail to TAIL PIPE (24A. End of an exhaust system) which pipes a PIPE DREAM (32A. Unrealistic idea) to a DREAM TEAM (45A. 1992 U.S. Olympic hoopsters, with “the”) in a TEAM GAME (51A. Basketball or baseball) ending with a GAMECOCK (58A. Fighting rooster), in a round leading back to the top of the crossword. Tuesday links: EPHEMERAL (33D. Short-lived) and FOOTPRINT (9D. Evidence washed away by the tide); TATARS (21A. Turkic people); SCARP (11D. Bluff formed by a fault), AMAN, HESS, OLAN, OPAL, ZERO (2D. Total loser). That‘s all folks!
