Bullets
If I were Tyreke Evans, I would get season-ending surgery today and go out on a high note like George Costanza. Oh, he was having a horrible season? But do you remember that prayer he hit to beat Memphis?
Is there anything worse than being on the green in regulation and then three-putting your way to a bogey? Yeah, that happened three or four times the other day.
I was in Vegas the other day...

Words With Friends
I’ve never played Words With Friends, but I know it has become a craze with all of you Apple people. I just had a random thought:
Can you imagine Monta Ellis and Derrick Rose playing against each other?
Rose: “You think you got what it take?”
After using words like ball, moped, tattoo, and SAT - they can’t come up with any more words (or at least words they can spell)....

CC Sabathia Signing
I went to a CC Sabathia signing today at Vallejo Toyota. If you donated a toy, you got an autograph. In years past, if you donated a toy you could get anything you wanted signed, but this year the first 100 people got baseballs and everybody after that got pictures.
Initially when we were told that we wouldn’t be able to get personal items signed, I was disappointed. I wanted to get my...

*Warriors free throw discrepancy - None of their bigs has a presence inside and their scorers are a bunch of thin body perimeter guys, none of which has a post up game.
I agree. Fans can’t complain about not getting calls when the personnel doesn’t dictate getting to the line. There aren’t any D-Wade/Durant-types on this team.
Monta’s free throw shooting is borderline...

Stephen Curry Giveaway Results
Edit: You have to actually go to my blog instead of viewing this post from the dashboard to see the video.
Thank you to those that reminded me to do this. If I haven’t followed you guys yet, I will.
I put all the of names of the people that followed and reblogged into a numbered list. If the number that the random number generator came up with was the number assigned to you, you win!
And...
PK asked: Your thougths on these thoughts:
*Curry & Radmonivich for Carmello. I wouldn’t do this deal. Don’t get me wrong, he’d be nice to have, but when he bolts for New York at the end of the season, the Warriors will be in an even worse situation than they’re in now.
No need to worry though. Jeremy Lin is waiting in the wings. *sarcasm* (Sorry to hate on your boy,...
Why Baseball is Better Than Basketball #2
JT’s (JustinTanaka.com) comment on the baseball vs basketball argument:
i feel like in basketball, the better team (usually defense and chemistry) always wins come playoff time. it takes a lot more to upset in the playoffs in the NBA. the last good one was warriors/mavs, but i struggle to remember many others as a game 7 makes sure the best team is to win.
whereas in...
BB #3 Colts -3
I wasn’t going to write about the Colts vs. Titans game last week, but I’ve been thinking about it all week and it still bothers me. You know how sometimes you have an itch in your leg that you can’t find? No matter how much you scratch where you think the itch is, it still itches. It’s more annoying than anything, right? That’s how I feel about this. I’m not...

Who is the best White American in the NBA? If you answered half of Blake Griffin, don’t worry. That was my thought process too until I remembered Kevin Love. I decided to take a look at some of the best white players in the NBA over the last decade or so (to qualify, one must be born in the United States).
Here’s what I came up with after briefly looking at statistics:
2000 John Stockton ...
The Stick
My mom always tells me to stay home and watch games on TV instead of going to see it live. This isn’t to say that my mom is opposed to going to games, because some of my best childhood memories were going with her to Candlestick to watch the Giants. We were even fortunate enough to see Barry Bonds hit a home run almost every time we went (unless my brother came along).
I mean, it makes...
Why Baseball is Better Than Basketball #1
I’ve been thinking about why I like baseball more than basketball over the last few months and a handful of reasons have come to mind. Please don’t take these posts as a slam to basketball because I love basketball. I just happen to love baseball a little bit more.
Onto the first reason:
Basketball is a 4th quarter sport, by and large. There are so many runs in basketball that they are...
Wellman 2
I woke up bright and early this morning for my 8:30 final. I got to the room, a teacher gave me a test, and then I realized that this is the wrong class. I looked at the door and uhh this was the right room.
What is going on?
I looked around the building and I did’t see anybody in general, let alone people from my class. I poked my head into other rooms and they were empty.
Before I...
Stat of the Night
The Nationals gave Jayson Werth more money in one contract than the franchise had spent on all major league free agents in the past 20 years.

Avon Durant and Stringer Westbrook
I has been mentioned before, but I honestly don’t see it happening. I don’t think their egos will get in the way of winning.
If you don’t understand the reference, then you missed out on the best television series of all time, OF ALL TIME. Word to Kanye.
Weekend Pick 'Em
Taking a stab in the dark:
Oregon -16.5 USC -6.5 -6 Packers -9
I thought about taking South Carolina +5 against Auburn, but the line moved a point and a half.
Wait, so the big fuss today isn’t about J-Rich’s return to Oakland?

Why Not?
Like I said in my last post about Russell Westbrook, he is playing like an MVP.
After outplaying Chris Paul in the win over New Orleans on Monday, Westbrook carried the Thunder to a triple overtime win over the Nets tonight without Kevin Durant. He made the big shots (scored all 13 of the Thunder points in the 3rd OT), came up with big rebounds, and huge steals that ultimately led the Thunder to...
