Morning Munchies: King Defers To Boobie, Donovan’s Cold Feet and A-Rod Saves!

- Baseball, Basketball, Other -

  • The King delegates - and it works! The Kid they call “Boobie” dropped 19 on the Pistons in Game 6 in Cleveland to help the Cavs close out a very old-looking Detroit squad. Chances the Spurs allow a guy named “Boobie” to destroy them? I’d give it 1:Bowen. (That’s very little if “the hitman” has anything to do with it)
  • Guy from FoxSPorts says a certain superstar in L.A. should take notes on how LeBron handles his teammates. Other than a lame Lohan reference, he makes a good point.
  • Billy Donovan changed his mind about hopping from college to the pros. The Orlando Sentinel reports that the Magic will let Billy Donovan out of his contract. Anyone care for a waffle?
  • A-Rod saves! With a 9th inning game-winning HR off BoSox closer Jonathan Papelbon last night, the Yanks climb to a nail-biting 12.5 games back from the division-leading Sox. Please, wake us in August when the obituaries are reigning down from all over the N.Y. area and Clemens is “fatigued” elsewhere
  • J.A. Adande on his way out at the L.A. Times and we wish him the best…
  • Did anyone else catch the Eric Mangini cameo on The Sopranos last night? Just a brief showing in the resturant, but maybe keeping with the sports cameos they’ll have one of two Jersey-related folks make a cameo next week in the series finale:

    Vince Carter - Who better to take ill-advised shots at Phil’s gang? At this point, Tony and the gang could use a conscience-free shooter on their side. But if Phil and the New York boys hire Eric Snow to counter… consider Carter’s done for!

    Jay-Z - Who better to help keep fans of HBO’s favorite series on the edge of their seats and following the network than the man who called it quits but yet refuses to stay off-air and in the office as promised. Maybe some Soprano foreshadowing? I’m thinking next season of Entourage we find out that Vinny Chase has a great Uncle from the East who is in need of a place to hide for a few… hmm…

    Great second-to-last episode last night, though.
