  1. Mike Brown fired as Lakers coach -- no one survives Mamba's "Stare Of Death."
  2. Kobe give Mike Brown his "Death Stare"
  3. Lakers are very bad right now, I don't see how much longer Mike Brown can last, and of all people, there are calls for Mike D'antoni to take over the team -- Yikes.
  4. Yeah, it's pretty bad stuff right now, I don't know how many time I've read an account of a game and the score is buried a couple of paragraphs in the story. Another bad influence on sports writing has been Bill Simmons, now everyone has to get their cheesy cultural references in a story. I'm currently reading The Sweet Science by A. J. Liebling, now there's some graceful sports writing!
  5. I hope the Dodgers go after B.J. Upton instead of Hamilton, Upton is much younger and has more of a up side career wise, than Hamilton, who, to my mind, is on the downside of his career. Re: Rivera: From all that I've read, I guess that means that the Yankees will let Soriano go, though that is a tough one if Mo' doesn't make it all the way back. I wonder why teams let these Boras players have the "opt-out" year on their contracts? Doesn't make any sense to me, too often they leave a club in a lurch.
  6. Baseball uni's in the 1970s were the coolest ever! LONG LIVE 1970S BASEBALL UNIFORMS!!!!!
  7. I think you mean Brandon Rush of Golden State http://espn.go.com/n...acl-miss-season Yikes, you're right. Geesh, Roy has it tough enough without have me take him out for the year.. too bad about Rush also.
  8. The Curse of Greg Oden: Brandon Roy, after two games, torn ACL -- out for the year.
  9. Which a few years later morphed into: Not as good. Ya' know, as time has gone by, those look better and better...but never really good. I always think of Mike Scott pitching that no-hitter to clinch the division when I see the rainbow uni's
  10. The Mighty One replies on his Facebook page: PS: I wonder which one of the two, Miles or Kobe, has the biggest ego....
  11. Perfect recap of the World Series
  12. No love for these?
  13. All because Bud Selig, (who is neutral, of course ) didn't want his beloved Brewers to make the logical move to the American league. As we all know, having Detroit, Chicago, Cleveland, and Milwaukee, in the same division just makes no geographical sense edit for spelling
  14. This "Princeton Offense" flat-out sucks, but as long as Kobe is on board, nothing is going to change. I does look like a Clippers vs OKC WCF right now, The Spurs might squeeze in there somehow, but we'll have to wait and see how the Durant & Westbrook tandem works itself out, I just have a bad feeling about that combo, Westbrook seems to lose it in tight games.
  15. James Harden scores 45 points; Lakers lose again; Kobe, was asked after the game when to push the panic button: "Now." Clippers are now the best basketball team in LA, who would have thought?
  16. And you wonder what's it's like covering the Lakers:
  17. Any thoughts on The Golden Years of Soviet New Jazz? I've always been intrigued by these box sets.
  18. I know you shouldn't overreact after one game, (but I'm a Laker fan, so that's my speciality) but OKC does not look the same without Harden, and having to depend on Westbrook for intelligent play??? Good luck with that one, maybe that Sonics Karma is finally coming around.
  19. Pascual Perez dies in home invasion robbery. Sad news. Good pitcher, of course, as a Padre fan, I mostly remember him for the infamous Padres brawl with the Braves. Found a report on the brawl, it was as wild as I remembered
  20. Big p.i.a. that the Lakers are now on Time Warner Cable and I have DirectTV, so I can't watch the games. What a rip off. Mike Brown will be leaving shortly -- I hope. Eddie Jordan is supposedly Kobe's man, and if fact, on NBA TV last night, someone was saying this whole "Princeton Offense" is Kobe's idea.
  21. Lakers lose their opener. Dwight Howard 3-14 from the free throw line - thanks Superman. Steve Nash was looking lost running the offense and had a big turnover late in the game, Kobe was a nice 11-14 in his shooting, but no free throws even attempted, and nothing from the bench. Mike Brown should start making early vacation plans... I'm still wondering if Howard will sign with the Lakers when it's all said and done, he can walk away at the end of the season. Just your typical NBA point guard:
  22. Just another story to the add to the A. J. Elliis legend
  23. Is is just me, or is there no way to search for an artist or album on this app?
  24. I agree. However, it was a great reading with lots of poets in attendance. Eventually, an audio will be streaming on Moe's website. David: I was never able to find an audio of this event. Did Moe's ever post it on their website?
