Sad to say I have no idea who Picard is (I know it's a French area in the north), so I don't know TROI --- probably a person but not necessarily.

Today's 3-entry theme seems a rhyming of ease, but the real theme is sports. I count nine sports references:
MCENROE of tennis
DAVIDORTIZ of baseball
TDS for football touchdowns
"Top pitchers" ACES [baseball]
"Pitcher's pinpoint control, say" ASSET [baseball]
"Martial ___" ARTS [fighting]
"Corrida competitor" TORO [bullfighting]
NATS of baseball
Sportscaster Scully VIN [baseball]
SJS:
FYI, Picard was a character in the TV show Star Trek The Next Generation. Troi was another character on the show.
I think the theme was tease / tees / tiz.

Thanks for the info on Star Trek which gained popularity after I had stopped watching commercial TV. I had been, however, a blackbelt Twilight Zone fan.
I think we agree that the de jure theme was words rhyming with "ease." I suggested that the de facto theme was sports.
