OMG, that intro tonight for Kobe and the story about the little boy and the journey he had and when he had to end it all was PERFECT.

Loved it all, loved seeing all those big names there too tonight.

Iverson was there taping it and mucking it up with Kobe!!!! 

Love the interactions between Kobe and Magic too and the fact Shaq is back with them as friends.

It's just so amazing with the Lakers/Celtics and all the legends they have......

Lakers almost won as well. Lost 116-114 in OT! Great halftime retirement ceremony. I had to YouTube it because I am at work but just watched it.

lol SW

Go to Rehab. Trust me, I've been there. Really.....

Oh by the way, is your profile pic really you are is that the lady from the movie I'm watching right now? HG

Thanks for answering my question 100GFB. I appreciate it. I like it when celebrities & entertainers are polite & down to earth. That's awesome!

Thanks for the comments all. I love Cat Stevens and heard this today on the radio and said to myself....wonder if anyone here likes him? Guess so!

So on and on I go, the seconds tick the time out

There’s so much left to know, and I’m on the road to find out.

Toronto may beat us, we are due for a loss after winning 4 in a row. I think that game is 50/50 as Toronto is very talented and they kicked the crap out of Houston the other night.

Due for a loss after just 4? Celtics are at 16 and I keep thinking it's coming.  But it's tough to say........

I think it's the Kyrie factor, he's the closer. Pacers still need "that guy" but your scoring looks to be pretty good.

Dipo I think is a decent closer and becoming that type of guy. Pacers usually just go with the hot hand. Yeah 4 in a row isn't nothing compared to 16 but 16 isn't the norm. Usually when teams win 4 or 5 in a row they play a stinker and lose. Long streaks are rare. I would be surprised if the C's have a streak longer than 7 the rest of the year once this one is over.

Listen to Saint Dungy...he LIKES Dak Prescott 

Oh boy, imagine if Dungy had Dak back on those old Tampa Bay teams. He would have finally had a quarterback. No need to bounce the Dilfer-King-Johnson train of mediocrity.

*First off; Saturday, the Patriots shut out. I'm sure someone up in the sky was randomly mad as hell at the Texans for...some reason. 

Texans are Job.  

Quote

*The Steelers, an AFC favorite get routed 34-3. Carson Wentz is like a young David who is routing the Philistines because he's David, and God wants to see David be AWESOME.

I like this one. Carson is the new NFC chosen King.

Quote

*The Browns come so close...so close to winning in what was an old-school 1980's style matchup, that looked like the football ghosts of Bernie Kosar and Dan Marino were going at it head to head. But God hates the Browns, so BAM, they lose in the end. 

Or maybe the Browns are Job?

Quote

 

*Carson Palmer with 4 or 5 interceptions today. Someone simply didn't want him winning today, and that's his fault because....some reason. Rex Ryan needs more time just like Saul needed the rest of an entire book before finally meeting his end. 

 

The powers in the sky want the Pats to do in Rex Ryan next weekend. Since the Pats are Satan's chosen team.

Quote

*Rams/Bucs; what in the hell was wrong with this game? So many times, both of those teams could have ended it. But like a book that constantly flip flops and adds filler, that game went on and went on and went on, even though it was pretty much over once the Rams got a 10 point lead early on. 

And there was that odd weather delay in this game too.

Also, I think San Diego keeps losing players to injury. Whats up with that?

But, why are the Vikings and Broncos being favored?

Browns missed the FG in regulation to flat out win. Typical Browns.......

It's just sad to lose them like that. I have tried like hell, it's been rough. 

9 dead kittens out of 3 litters. Just feels like a massacre. I have a pet cemetery of dead kittens so bad it would rival Steven King's book of the same name. 

I was going to say you have Steven King stuff going on around you. And especially now with mom cats eating baby cats.

I am speechless.

BTW I was lucky enough to find a real clip of the Warriors coaches telling the Warriors how to play during a timeout.

Warriors are really impressing me. They are beating up on a team whose best player is 39 years old.

Pick on the Cavs all you want but they are playing a team in the next round who is young, athletic and HEALTHY. 

Dude that man is our only hope the way things are going lately.

Long live our Galactic Overload Xenu!!!!!

Given that a reality TV star who is the most hateful person in this country and has absolutely zero political experience whatsoever and really does nothing besides get on Twitter and run his mouth like a lunatic, then I have no idea why Tom Cruise can't run for president. He at least knows how to SAVE ACTUALLY LIVES as a Scientologist. 

It was like watching a human, lime green highlighter brigade on the field. Very odd. 

Either that or radioactive teletubbies right after a nuclear meltdown of hazardous waste. 

BTW you aren't stupid, you know the refs will favor Lebron in the east again.  They were doing it yesterday too in the first half until the game got away from the Celtics.

They want Lebron. 

The East is pretty wide open, it is much tougher to predict this season. If Toronto could grow a SACK they could even probably win the East. That team is pretty loaded with talent. The Celtics to me are still the best Defensive team in the East and best  Coached. Cavs got more athletic after the trade and still have LeBron so yes they are dangerous as usual. Teams like the Pacers and Bucks are intriguing, both teams have great chemistry and a Superstar to boot. I am now considering Oladipo a Superstar at this point and the Greek Freak definitely is.

C's will get better again defensively when Smart returns. Since without him, they seem to miss that spark plug. They are sewer trash lately.

Raptors IMO are the best east team on paper, best bench too. Great home crowd and they are hungry. Problem is......sigh, it's the Raptors. Even their fans are dumb aazzes from Canada.

I think every eastern team has dangerous aspects to them but I still got to say Lebron is the favorite until he is knocked off is all.  I mean......it's LEBRON.

I am now considering Oladipo a Superstar at this point and the Greek Freak definitely is.

They are great players, but I think they need to show more in the playoffs for a few years before I can put them in true superstar status. Same with the hyped up Sixers too.

Like I need signature moments and games too or something. But the playoffs are not all that matters. But it's why Kyle Lowry is a great all star player but is known for being a dud in the postseason. 

I like Oladipo more than the Greek Freak. ESPN is in love with the Bucks, they kinda worry me since I fear they will get ref help in the postseason. Oladipo I think will prove himself in the postseason in the next few years win or lose since his numbers are usually great.

Oh I agree, Kobe does want it and always had. He will never lose the fire. But, man what a mess there. It might only get worse too since now they are starting to turn on D'Antoni and each other.

The Pacer do not score with the best of them...but WE play hard. Love em...the Lakers lost when they went to D'Antoni. It was prime for the Zen_Master to return with the triangle mixed in with a double post of Howard/Gasol....Good time to NOT be a Laker fan.

my suns are even worse :'(

Lonzo is definitely a throwback at PG, that is what Lakers fans need to realize. I honestly don't think he will ever be a great Scorer but I never did. That isn't his job. His job is to pile up Assists and be the Leader of that team. Rebound well to start fastbreaks, etc.. Yes he needs to score some to keep the opponent honest but 15 a game would be adequate IMO. He isn't a scoring PG like Curry, Westbrook, and Harden are. He is more like CP3, Kidd, Stockton type. Regarding Walton, I really liked him at first and I had him up there with Brad Stevens potential but not sure now. His rotations are puzzling!

I agree with everything you said. As for Brad Stevens, he can make his mistakes too. He had Al Horford against Drummond the other night instead of going with Baynes at center. Not a great move since Al doesn't have enough muscle at times, kinda like a tall thin Kevin Love type. He can score but sometimes be pushed around by the monster dudes.

I give Brad Stevens a pass though since they play the Pistons 3 more times and he likes to feel out different line ups a lot in various games for the future. And they might end up seeing them yet again for the playoffs. 

Stevens has some puzzling rotations at times too and especially for second units but he often does it to feel out what will work long term as well.

Luke is trying to find what works as well but I don't think they should "bench" Lonzo like they were a few times for the 4th quarter, it won't help his confidence. I won't give up on Luke yet though........he is OK so far and has even defended Lonzo Ball at times.

Sometimes I don't think Luke uses Lopez well though so far.

Oh no........Lakers play the Warriors tonight.  *hides* I read Durant/Curry are cleared to play but I don't know if their minutes are cut.

If Lakers lose tonight I hope nobody freaks out on this one. Since it's not a win you should expect by any means. Lakers though IMO should have beaten the Clippers the other night.

Lakers leading right now. But a whole half to go........

Have a good time tomorrow, sounds like a big feast. I have to go to my folks house too and my sister sometimes goes with me so we can share a car. I had a big dinner over NBA stuff tonight with my boyfriend and sister so I am stuffed. We talk too much about Lebron and the Celtics and Lonzo Ball.

I will try to catch some of the NFL action or at least the later stuff. Just hoping the Cowboys continue to slide lol. I also would not mind San Diego going on some sort of hot streak, Rivers deserves it. I am starting to warm up to the idea of the Vikings now too........

Yeah we need a day off from basketball before back to backs this weekend.  

Sucks you got to work so hard at night and all that. I see your posts and comments from time to time on it. You sometimes sound stressed lol. Sports must be a good diversion. 

Just make sure you get sleep at times since in the winter months we get vulnerable to colds and the flu!

Yeah I work all kinds of hours, sometimes it's stressful and some days are easy. When it's not busy I can get on the Internet like tonight, there isn't any other employees here.  2 guys are here fumigating part of the building so that is why I am here. I volunteered for it because it's double time after midnight. I am off until Monday once I get out of here in the morning. Have a fun time tomorrow with your family and take care.

I am probably not going to be online tomorrow but will be around late Friday night.

Have a good holiday and enjoy the time off!

Should be a fun sports weekend starting today.

Warriors sadly IMO are not even focused yet. They will more later on. When they do focus they are lethal and the defensive intensity will be turned up a notch. Last year their defense was a joke for the first few months but when the new year hit they kicked it up a notch.

This is why I wanted the Celtics (with Hayward) to fight against the Warriors in the finals, felt it would be a better series even if the Celtics lost over another Cavs/Warriors crap feast. Hayward won't be back this year.

Ironically by years end if the Celtics stay healthy with everyone else, I still would not count them out for the finals.......since they are a young team with energy and they might be able to snag the first seed again.

I have always thought LeBron has been a Top 10 player of all-time but in all honesty he is probably Top 5 and is still the best player today. Guy scores 57 with ease . He is in there with the Jordan's, Magic's, and Kobe's and actually has more physical talent than those 3. He is a lot like Shaq = a freak of nature. Tom Brady is just a winner and really his only comp were the Manning's. Eli now stinks and Peyton is retired so Tom has an easy road to the SB unless the Steelers or Chiefs can stop him. I want Chiefs but I am not sold on Alex Smith being able to pull it off. They have the Coaching and Defense and now Hunt but can Smith come through

You are rooting for the Celtics like I am OKC hoping they can knock off the Warriors but I doubt it happens. I think LeBron will get another crack at them but I don't think even he can beat that team. I thought he had good help last season with Irving and it still wasn't near enough. Not sure how Thomas will play with them?

Clippers lose by 2, they are in full playoff form early. I feel bad for Doc Rivers since the Clippers tied the game with 13 seconds and then Utah got a shot to go in at the buzzer. Doc looked heartbroken.

Clippers are just so damn doomed.

I have heard rumors too that Blake Griffin is interested in teams like the Celtics now.

Should be the New Orleans Jazz though.

This is horrible.

http://www.nba.com/article/2017/04/15/isaiah-thomas-sister-killed-one-car-wreck

Ugh this is depressing. Chicago shot lights out in game 1, Isaiah Thomas is a basket case and looks like he has not slept (understandable) and well......it's game 2 or else our Boston dream is likely going to end sooner then we had hoped.

Game 2 is now HUGE.

Nice moment at the end when I saw D Wade talking to Isaiah kindly and asking how he was doing.

If you did not see the Warriors, they struggled with Portland until the 4th quarter and Portland even had a lead once. Anyone who says the Warriors can't be beaten is stupid, they can be beaten......the D is still very iffy.

Quote

This is....shocking.

I know right.

Belichick will work his magic and Allen will be a star. He and Gronk together will make Brady look even better. I wouldn't be surprised.

He is gone but never forgotten.

His new journey in Stone-Hand-Land enters a new chapter.

Quote

I hope the Lions can go farther in the playoffs then people might be expecting, since the NFC does seem "open" this year. Would be cool to have the Lions and Jim Bob Cooter give us a run to watch. I don't even trust Seattle anymore or the Cowboys who can't function against the Giants. So why not the Lions?

 

Or even the Packers. I hear also Rodgers is up again for the MVP.......yes they might give it to Aaron if the Pack win out too since the league is in love with him.  People are so in love with Rodgers that when the Packers had the losing streak they came up with theories as to why baby Aaron was upset; like he has not spoken to family or McDonalds refused him a toy.

Rodgers is the golden boy like Manning used to be. It amazes me when he struggles, all the excuses GB gets, but Brees will put up far better stats, still lose, and people will say that the Saints need to trade him. 

If Rodgers get another MVP, that's just ridiculous since GB did nothing when it counted. This streak their on is probably too late, cause they have 3 teams ahead of them who can win out and make the playoffs - Giants, Washington, and Tampa Bay. 

Quote

I think personally Stafford deserves it, since he is having a Peyton Manning "in his prime" like year with all these game winning drives and stuff. If the Lions were the Colts with Manning, Stafford would get it. And he is clearly VALUABLE to his team. How the Lions have won games this year is almost exactly how so many Colts teams with Peyton would win. Jim Caldwell is probably going nuts on this.

 

Matt Ryan might get it too (sorry) but at the same time it depends on how they finish the year and losing to the Chiefs/Seahawks might hurt his credibility.

Matt Ryan shouldn't even be in MVP conversation cause the reason his stats look so good is because he has the best receiver in the league with Julio Jones.

I want Stafford to get MVP, I really do. And he's doing it all without Calvin Johnson which no one is talking about. The Lions offense seems to be better without Johnson, cause now they're opened up more and can spread the ball around. 

Quote

The argument against Brady though will be he missed the first 4 games and they went 3-1 without him. It all depends I think too on how good Brady does in Denver this weekend since he often has been crap there.

The best thing this year is if Denver misses the playoffs....Hate that team so much, they're so freaking dirty and LUCKY. All those lucky wins last year and this year again. I hope New England does beat them cause I'm so sick of them. 

Quote

Of course we both know deep down that Russia is going to hack the MVP voting anyway so why bother? (sorry I had to.  )

And Putin is literally a James Bond villain that can do something like that, and something I heard yesterday, Russia rigged it YEARS in advance!!! So if Matt Ryan does get the MVP, this is something that was planned years ago

If Denver can beat NE this weekend they may still be able to get in I think and it would hurt Brady for MVP chances big time. I favor NE to win, but not a big win. I can't recall the Pats with Brady EVER playing well in Denver, like ever. The only time was when Denver had Tebow.

It's another weak year for MVP. I hate to tell you this but they could give MVP to Ryan and offensive player of the year to Julio Jones. It's what they did with Brady/Moss in 2007.

I would give it to Stafford, and I think he can only win it if the Lions do win the NFC North. If they fall to a WC spot he won't get it IMO.

It's all about winning the division.

I bet though so hard they will try to give it to Rodgers and get them in the playoffs.

Something tells me that if Putin had a choice for MVP it's Tom Brady. Kinda creepy too that Putin literally did take that one Pats SB ring from Kraft. You should spread this online and see if liberals catch on and make a conspiracy out of it.  

I am worried about the Lions playing in NY this weekend.

The Giants are starting to become our Russia in our minds for the NFL.

I feel sorry for the Browns. They can never get it right  

Cleveland's got this one. CLEVELAND!!! THIS IS FOR YOU!

Watch them have an NBA and MLB title, meanwhile the Browns go 0-16. 

Amazing coincidence - Cleveland will be playing their first game in the World Series on the NBA's opening night when the Cavs drop their championship banner. 

If I was a Cleveland sports fan, I'd say screw the Browns and never watch another NFL game. No need, when you have the best player of the past decade in basketball playing the top of his career, and managed to deliver his promise of a championship...and you also have the Indians who are great. 

Great time to be a Cleveland sports fan while forgetting about throwball. 

I don't know anything about the DB but I see people complaining hard on it already. Then again for many years nobody complains more about draft picks then the draft junkies on Colts forums lol. I think some were even complaining I recall when we picked TY Hilton saying he was too small and picked too high lol.

Pacers winning is an added bonus too. Nice to see.

Dwyane Wade = Stud! Drake poked the wrong person when he poked the Bear of Paul George. We will see what happens now, YeeeeeeeeeSSSSSS

I think Celtics and Heat both advance to Round 2. Watch out for OKC in the West, they are capable of upsetting the Spurs or Warriors. The combo of Durant/Westbrook is lethal. They have a legit Center finally in Kanter as well.

So far so good for the Pacers, wow........

Getting Game 1 on the road is huge. George 32 Points!

You will sleep later. 

I feel okay too but this does seem like a surreal day and night.........

Bowie is really gone...Jesus, I can't even make myself believe it. I'm in a Stardust haze still. 

Yeah he's really gone. Going to be a rough week....

I think my brain can't handle it anymore after tonight's debate crap show. 

It took Kaine until the very end to start bringing up the history of homophobia and anti-women's rights and outright bigotry of Pence and Trump, when he should've been nailing them from the very beginning, not waiting until the final 20 minutes. Ughhhhhh, I feel like this was screwed up from the get go. 

I'd rather discuss Stone Hands right now than what I just witnessed. Holy crap that was bad. Kaine IMO messed this up. 

I am kinda sick so I forgot about the debate.   Ugh. Heading to bed soon. I was watching preseason NBA.  Knicks and Rockets......

Okay......Stone Hands for President!!!!!!!!!!!!

The good news about the debate - it wasn't good enough to give Trump a jump in polls. Trump pretty much has killed any opportunity he's had of making this a close race, when he bashed soldiers with PTSD and mental problems. And Joe Biden slammed him for it. Kaine should've been doing that in the debates, but I do expect Hillary to bring it up in the next debate. 

All right I am done for tonight.  

Give LeBron 3-4 more years and he'll have the assists and rebound record too in the playoffs.

He's gonna have it all!!!

lol I had no idea that was even a Ted Nugent song until I had looked it up. And yeah he did get annoying with "stuff"......but we don't have to go there on Mr. Nugent here. Sigh.

Talk about an education with the 80's lately with the Miami Vice learning.

Granted, I only seen 4 episodes so far but I feel like it's been a lot to absorb. lol.

And this one is in my top group for songs too so far, best choice of song for that episode too. Seamless with the story content with so many songs on this show.

Peter Gabriel had a lot of songs on Miami Vice. 'Rhythm of the Heat' and 'Biko' were in the episode Evan. But that record right there, 'So' was a monster hit album during the show's prime. Half of that entire album is all used in season 3 - Red Rain, Sledgehammer, Do What We're Told, Mercy Street, Big Time - all those songs are in season 3 in various episodes.

Ancient records on the Persians lie with M Kitty.

Recent study is actually proving to be hilarious.  

Hey Jules, are you gonna see the new "Keanu: Gangsta Kitty" movie? It looks funny...

Too bad she got rid of that dress, but then again everyone is different when it comes to saving things. My mom saved everything. I mean she preserved her dress forever wrapped up in some airtight bag and a box. And her mother, my grandmother died when I was in the 4th grade sadly. But my mom saved her mom's cream wedding outfit too and still has that preserved! But no my mom is not going to wear her mom's outfit.  We are not going that far. 

Oh this dress will be saved forever though, my mom is big on memories. Photos etc. Just everything.

How Sweet.   

Jules is getting hitched in May eh? Nice. I assume that it goes without saying that your soulmate likes cats  too right? Purr Fect...

Cool to hear that you get to save money & wear a family heirloom/dress as well. Happy for ya. 

I can haz conspeericy

Now they are really calling conspiracy on last night cause LeBron left the game

lol I was mainly tongue in cheek last night. But, whoooo it did look hot at times in there .
