Refs are to Lakers what Germans are to David Hasselhoff

I don't want to hurt his feelings.

Actually I think it looks okay, and besides, it's not like they replaced the Stanley Cup with it or anything.

Okay Cheat Commandos is the greatest thing ever. Wow.

In cartoons that are Powered By The Cheat, where do the voices come from? The Cheat certainly can't supply them.

Ouch. The ol' "future considerations." That hurts. Hurts baaaaaad.

The vaunted Chicago pitching staff: Clement, Zambrano, Maddux, Mitre, Dempster. How's about that.

I took a light nap today, from 3 to 3.30. At some point, I had some weird daydream that due to financial problems, TSM was for sale and I bought it and put myself in charge. And everything went as normal except I made the wrestling secondary to the pop culture/general chat. So there. I've had deep wishes of taking over the site for my own personal gain. I guess you can go ahead and line up the firing squad. But before I go, I do want to suggest that somebody moves columnist archives to the bottom of the scroll menu so that the pop culture folders don't have a giant gap between them and the general chat folders. Just a thought

The teams in the NBA that have made their 2-0 comebacks lost on the road and won at home. The Sharks have to take two from Calgary, in Calgary, which by nature of being in Canada is great home ice, anot to mention the Flames have now won four straight games, whilst the Sharks have lost two and were sputtering against the Avs last series. It looks good for the Flames.

I hope Illinois doesn't pull this PC crap and get rid of the Fighting Illini. But it seems like as long as they want alumni to give to the school, Chief Illiniwek will stay.

If this is a Calgary sweep it's gonna be like mad in the Saddledome when the game is over. I wanna see that. As for the Sharks, I guess they've got a little fight in them at this point, but if they lose Game 3, they are done. They've jumped the shark. Hahahahahaha I slay me

Matt Clement is our ace, we're fucked, we're fucked, we're fucked. Never mind that Clement is awesome right now--that's why I'm worried, he's been compensating for Prior's absence and may have to for Wood's too, then his arm will fall off. If Kyle Farnsworth is moved to #5 starter, cast your eyes to the heavens, as that's where the action's gonna be.

Hey what was the name of that one song they played right before 3rd quarter at the Lakers game last night? I know it but I forgot it and it's bugging me.

What about "The Orange Crush" and have a giant pop can ready to do battle?

WM8, Heenan ripping on Tito Santana and "Arrrrrriba MacIntyre"

Hm I know hockey had always been 2-2-1-1-1, I personally like 2-3-2 better for baseball and basketball but whatever

How do we know that Bonds will feel like playing the All-Star Game? Didn't he blow it off last year?

But the Lakers will be in trouble if his flight gets delayed.

I thought Game 6 went to the team with home-court advantage...what's going on?

Sheffield is possible. Lofton seems like a bit of a team whore--Indians, Pirates, Cubs, Yankees, and maybe a couple others. I don't think he'd get in anyway. Giambi--no, at least not yet. Mattingly will. but not before shaving those sideburns of his.

I think we're going to see the gap between hockey and basketball postseason ratings start to close. I mean, this hasn't been the best Stanley Cup, but this year has certainly had a lot of interesting moments. Certainly more good moments than the very lackluster NBA playoffs with top-seed sweeps and the usual suspects once again.

That's tomorrow, actually. Dammit! I just want this month to be over.

Potential NLCS preview starts tonight with Wood against Weaver in LA tonight.

This better have elevated graphics for the games, and not like Final Fantasy Anthology. I can download NES ROMs for free.

Yeah I tihnk that's the same as the Powerplex
