Thoughts on being cut open

By On October 7, 2010 · Leave a Comment

Tomorrow (October 8, 2010), I’m having surgery for the first time in my adult life, and, for only the second time in my entire life. I had heel corrective surgery on my left foot when I was but a young’n (I think I was 6-7) and don’t remember anything about it except for the [...]

Portland Beavers are done, Merritt, you suck.

By On September 6, 2010 · Leave a Comment

I’m going to get this part of my rant, right out of the way. I know Merritt Paulson meant well when he bought the Timbers and the Beavers in 2007. I know that he wants very much to be the guy that brings relevance to other sports not called basketball to Portland. I [...]

Hooping @ 42

This past weekend (July 31st) some good friends from work and I competed in the annual Portland Trailblazers Street Jam 3+3 tournament. Our company (CMD Agency) sponsored us and even had jersey’s made for us (we called ourselves ‘RUN CMD’) and overall we had a great time. I learned a lot from competing [...]

Defense of title # 15 and pursuit of the 16th come tonight! Not to mention having the championship rings getting passed out and the banner hung at Staples. Very excited for the season to begin and hope the Lakers are as cool as they seem.

A great read here on the season preview.

It’s almost here….another NBA season!

First, excited for the new upcoming NBA season.

Second, VERY excited to watch the Laker’s defend the title.

Third and final, VERY EXCITED to see if the Lakers can repeat.

One thing for sure, besides Ron Artest, the true “x” factor for the 2010 season is Andrew Bynum. He apparently has big plans for himself [...]

Lakers take game 1

By On May 20, 2009 · Leave a Comment

Great game last night.

Kobe owned the game, the rest of the crew jumped on his back and my man D Fish dropped bombs at the right times.

Denver is clearly an animal of a team though and this is going to be a long series.

This according to assistant coach Jim Cleamons.

And he should know a thing or 5 about good D having been with Phil since the Bulls days.

Phil hates Vlade

I think it safe to say that in the NBA, ANYBODY is exependable.

I mean if Shaq can be traded 2 times in 3 years…..anyway, I digress.

Today apparantly the Lakers sent Valdomir Radmonovich to Charlotte for Adam Morrison (Mr. Porn Stache from Gonzaga) and Shannon Brown.

This isn’t really big news but [...]

I miss Shaq in LA

By On February 6, 2009 · Leave a Comment

There are some days, where I forget just how amazing it used to be have Shaq on the Lakers.

Don’t get me wrong, I wouldn’t trade the current team/line-up to get Shaq back.

But, you just can’t refute how funny he was and how dominant.
As a reminder to myself, I share this hilarious [...]
