    Where does Kobe Go?

    I liked liked a Kobe trade to the Hawks that then set up a trade to the Blazers for Randolph to the Lakers. I really do not think Kobe can win anymore win the Lakers. Not with the West still being a superior conference for at least 5 more years. Go East where you only have to play one West team. And I still acknowledge too that if I am a team in the East and I don't have LeBron on my team, I trade anybody for Kobe. Jermaine O'Neal & Kobe will not win in the West, and if I am New Jersey, I up the ante on Kidd for Bynum since the Lakers balked earlier.

    Cleveland Cavaliers vs San Antonio Spurs

    Halfway through that 12-0 run when LeBron went out with the 2nd foul. Mike Brown had to get LeBron back in. HAD to. Nobody could run the offense, or create and this is why the Cavs have no shot. This is just like the Jazz series with the combacks in the 4th quarter. I really don't think the Cavs win a game.

    The Sopranos

    The Wire will not have the closure that many probably desire. Its not character driven, its about "The Game".

    Roland Garros 2007

    I also will be rooting for Roger, but he will be the underdog, Nadal is looking good right now. My challenge will be avoiding the result. I got Indians-Reds tickets (which I got hooked into going to) then gotta take Moms out for her b-day, Sopranos finale and then the Cavs-Spurs. I just hope I can avoid the result until midnight tomorrow.

    The Sopranos

    Rewatching 'The Blue Comet' right now. Didn't realize Paulie passed off the job onto Patsy in a CYA type way. Good ol' Paulie. That would be the reason Patsy was running, he thought they were coming after him due to the botched hit. Can't wait until Sunday.

    The Sopranos

    Melfi has gotten very old the past couple of seasons, which has spanned what 5 years? They had to wait for the firing because her relationship with Tony was such an integral part of the series. And I would say this is probably the biggest crossroads in Tony's life. I like where it was placed because it was another member of Tony's "crew" leaving him. Not sure if Paulie will flip or not. If he does in the "et tu, Brute" moment I would not be opposed since Tony had a chance to kill him earlier and he was mad at himself for not filtering out the weaknesses sooner (Christopher). Any possibility Patsy could be working for New York? Coco knew where Meadow was at and Patsy ran like hell, even after the guys who were hitting Sil had already drove away.

    NBA Roundtable Discussion

    Yeah, but if AK is as unhappy in Utah as it seems, they need to get rid of him. I wouldn't mind seeing Utah try to dangle him and maybe Paul Millsap for a upper-level 2 guard, as that is what Utah really needs to guard the likes of T-Mac & Kobe. I wouldn't want to lose Millsap, but I know he'd be a hot commodity for potential trades. I guess that could be Marion, but if he feels underappreciated at times in Phoenix, that won't change in Utah with Williams and Boozer.

    Roland Garros 2007

    I would say most likely, as both Federer and Nadal are playing pretty well right now. I will say this though, it is great to see such big matchups in the semi's on the mens side. Arguably the four best players on the tour as of this moment.

    Should be interesting to see how this turns out. If I were the Magic I would take some legal action against him, try to get some money. Not that they need it, but it is the principle, every day this drags on they lose out on potential candidates and head coaches input, (which is not a lock, obviously) of who to draft. I think Donovan should have tried it, but if he has doubts, drop him.

    Blake also gone in 4 sets. Not a really good year for Blake since the Aussie Open.

    TSM Fantasy Baseball 2007

    Hey guys, sorry to break in but I have a fantasy question. I got Barry Zito as my 4th starter. He was killing me at the beginning of the year, but has settled down some. His ERA still kills me. Now Kelvim Escobar is available. Should I dump Zito to pick up Escobar? My other starters are Johan, Bonderman & Brad Penny and I really do not want to move those guys. Thanks for any advice.

    I'd be down too.

    LOST

    I think one other consideration is that this flash forward may not be the furthest point in the future of the series.

    Summer Box Office...

    After seeing the trailer for Rush Hour 3, I am not so sure it will be a huge money maker, not a lot of laughs in a 2 minute span is not a good sign.

    I think Conley will be gone, but Law at #11 isn't a bad consolation. Fred Hickman is an idiot saying that Portland getting the #1 pick was the biggest upset in draft lottery history.

    Teachers that got fired

    We had four removals in one year at a HS I worked at 3 years ago. Very proud times. 1. Building sub (actual school district employee, on-call sub that does other jobs) fired/resigned for inappropriate comments. Asked a girl if she knew what girls in red dresses do, as she was wearing a red dress. 2. Head Volleyball Coach/Math Teacher resigned for inappropriate text messages with players. 3. English Teacher fired for supplying beer and sex for sophomore boys. Her picture was on the 6 am news before the school administration actually knew about it. 4. Math Teacher, 24, admits to someone "he is in love with a student". No physical contact but he receives the ax.

    My highlight of the night. Watching with a Celtics fan, once the Milwaukee card came up at #6, he said "Come on baby, 3 other teams, 3 other teams." I didn't have the heart or time to tell him that if Milwaukee was at #6, Boston was right around the corner. Oden v. Durant 4 times a year. Fun. Both guys out West. Good stuff, and that Northwest Division becomes tougher. Should be interesting to see what Atlanta does. We know what their glaring need is, but also know that they don't care for making that pick and Mr. Conley does not project as the 3rd best player.

    LOST

    Ah, good point about the commercials, I tend to watch it at about midnight or later, because I have to stay up later than roommates who are watching the only TV w/DVR. However, I fell asleep before watching the Season 2 finale last year. That day was brutal, having to stay at work all day not knowing what happened!

    LOST

    It will merit two hours merely for the fact that there are going to be three different locales where major scenes are going to take place (The underwater station, the beach camp, and wherever Jack is leading the people). All three of those situations will have some sort of closure, so between the flashbacks and what goes on at each place, it'll fill the 2 hours. I am pretty pumped, might actually have to watch it live instead of the DVR way!

    WWE announces 2007 DVDs

    First DVD to start the regular circulation of DVD's was Backlash 2001.

    LOST

    Well if Cooper is one of the 5 supposed to die, who do you think the other 4 will be? I also haven't seen any of the spoilers. Charlie/Desmond (From watching the preview at the end of the last episode, it looks like Desmond goes after him) Mikhail One of the 3 shooters (Bernard, Jin, Sayid) So if one big character does die, it should be interesting to see who it'll be.

    LOST

    I always assumed if Sawyer died, it would be in heroic fashion, like proving he really loves Kate. More like an end of the series thing. These next two weeks are going to be great if only for the fact that major players from season 1 may die. Eko dying sucked but still does not have the magnitude of Jack, Sawyer or Charlie. Anybody think with that teaser Desmond may bite it, since he told Charlie he is dying now? That he can't save him now?

    De La Hoya vs Mayweather

    The re-match will definetely happen maybe November if money is good, probably next March or so. Floyd & Oscar are too good of businessmen.

    NBA Playoffs 2007: Conference Semifinals

    Looks like another good one in GS-Utah. Hope the tornado avoids us so we can hear Barkley at halftime. As long as Stern is an arrogant bastard and does not buckle at the questions, the NBA will be fine. Its horseshit, especially since they had to answer the Bowen-Duncan question, but rule with an iron fist Stern!
