why the haste?

What is going on with Mykal Vickkke? Don’t know why the Faalcuhn’s suspended him for 4 games. He’s only been indicted. Yeah, he probably knew about it and even enjoyed everything, but I think the team is rushing into things a bit too fast. His original and only statement so far […]

LA Drama Redux…

Ok, so there’s some noise that’s going on with KB and the Lakers. I think I should summarize the relevant events.

Shaq wants max extension money ($80mill over 3 yrs.), doesn’t get it, demands trade, to which Buss obliges.
Shaq gets traded.
Phil Jackson is told that the team is cutting costs and won’t be paying him […]

Protected: competition…

There is no excerpt because this is a protected post.

Talk about being on fire…

So this guy Kohbee Berayant has scored 65, 50, and 60 points in the last three games, all in wins. Some might think that he’s being selfish (or, as some might think, more selfish than usual). But, looking at his stats for the season, he leads his team in scoring and assists. […]

Sometimes a picture is worth a million words…

Every once in a while a photograph captures a moment that causes our insides to scream. This is one of those moments. Shaunnn Livinggston of the Clipppers dislocated his knee today. You can see his kneecap has shifted toward the inside of his leg. Ouch!

kowlts…

They finally won.  Now I need my Pacers to win.  Then I can die in peace.
I just found out that one of my friends has an interesting “connection” with football star Tom Braideee.  When Braideee was at uMich, my friend was there doing his medical residency there.  Anyway, Braideee came in for some pain he […]

e-weird-but-true

So I found out that a friend recently got engaged. But, what I didn’t know is that they met through e-harmonee dot com. It’s funny, I guess. Another friend has been dating someone through the same site as well and finds that it is a great way to meet potential dates. […]

The connection between the Colts and trumpets…

I wasn’t supposed to be watching the game, since I had (and still have) tons of work right now. But, I saw the second half and wow…it was incredible. I have loyalties to LA, Indiana and Cleveland sports teams in that order. It’s been a while since Indiana’s won anything. Ever […]

Philosophy and soccer, and duhramas

If you’ve got 4 minutes of your life to waste, take a look at this Monty Python clip. It’s basically the Greek philosophers vs. the German philosophers. This could explain why I’m not in the NBA.
A while back Bobby Lee from MadTV did this one hilarious sketch. I recently saw part II […]

december and KB

How is it possible that it is December?  For many, this is a fun time.  For a student, not necessarily so.  For me, definitely not.  This will be the weekend from H-E-Double-Hockey-Sticks.
So, while I was supposed to be studying, I caught the second half of the lakers/jazz game.  I’m glad I didn’t miss that 3rd […]

TV and food

I’ve been watching too much TV lately and I’ve got to stop…or at least cut down. Fortunately, “Lost” won’t be airing for the next few months, so I can get some work done on Wednesday nights. Still watching “Prison Break” just out of curiosity, not because I think it’s still good. I think […]

tennis anyone?

I just bought a racket for the first time in about 12 years. My wrist still hurts, but I can’t play until late next week anyway. The sad thing is, I don’t think I’ll be much better with a good wrist. I was never that great at tennis. I […]

One down, one more to go…

I have 3 weddings in 4 weeks, and today was the second in a row. One more right after I get back from Asia, which will be such a relief. My Saturday’s are always taken up. Although I think I’m done for the rest of the year, just found out that I […]

USA Basketball

First of all, I think Tiger’s back. His eagle was amazing, reminiscent of his earlier days.
Anyway, I was on Espn.com and there was a survey about who you’d pick to be on the USA B-Ball team. Which 12 would you pick? Would you just pick the best 12 players or pick the […]

wimbledon…belated

I don’t like Federer, but he’s amazing. I just don’t know how someone his size chases down balls like he does (among everything else that he does well). Nadal’s always been weird, and he’s lucky to have made it past the quarters. He had a relatively easy draw and got lucky a […]
