- Lebron and the gang couldn’t get it done yet again, losing to the Detroit Pistons in Game 2, 79-76. Last moments looked just like Game 1. Get me a “Blame Lebron for…” shirt with a huge list on the back of items including: Games 1 & 2, Darfur, the War in Iraq, World Wars 1-3, etc. He is only 22. He will get going, folks. Hang in there.
UPDATE: As I.G. points out, M.J. didn’t win his first until he was 25. - Having seen only a handful of MMA (mixed martial arts) matches and thoroughly enjoying each and every one, Saturday’s much-hyped Chuck Liddell/Quinton Jackson match-up should be a hellova show. What are the bets on how close the pay-per-view dollars will compare to the Mayweather/De La Hoya record-breaker?
- There’s no crying in baseball! Here’s the scenario: John Lieber threw a pitch skimming the back of Dontrelle Willis. Later when Willis is on the mound, he tosses a pitch behind Lieber. Both dugouts are handed verbal warnings. After the inning concludes, Willis walks off the field yelling over to the Phillies’ dugout a few “sweet nothings”. Both teams spill out of the dugouts for an elongated shouting match. But take a look when they zoom in on Willis being held back — is he crying? During the video, when they zoom in, Willis’ face looks a bit “shiny” doesn’t it? Where’s Tom Hanks when you need him? By the way, Marlins go on to win with a Miguel Cabrera walk-off. (Sometime it might be good for the MLB to have the NBA’s strict bench-clearing rules, if for no reason other than to prevent players from looking so ridiculous.)
- WaPo’s Michael Wilbon says the NBA loses if their top-2 draft picks are out west and not frequently seen.
- William Rhoden of the NYTimes wildly suggests the NBA Commissioner wipe the Isiah Thomas mess clean and absolve the Knicks of their cap detbt. Silly.
- Anyone see the video of Andy Roddick’s smooth behind-the-back return? (please send if so) Roddick makes a nice play, smirks, throws his hands in the air, acknowledges every side of the crowd and then gets upset by wild card Gael Monfils. Oh the irony.
- Lawyers harass TheBigLead.com and other bloggers who posted those goofy AJ Hawk wedding photos, including quality ones of Brady Quinn as a YMCA member
