OK, so all anyone is going to talk about Monday morning at work is Bruno, aka Sacha Baron Cohen or “Borat,” tea-bagging Eminem at the MTV Movie Awards tonight.
Yeah, I saw it … watched the MTV Movie Awards with the wifey in between doing laundry, while the rest of the hommies played a poker tournament [...]

I’m still trying to decide how I feel about BG’s comment on a new Dodger Stadium. On the one hand, the current stadium has developed some history, and when you see it on TV, it’s instantly recognizable. On the other hand, when you see it in person, it’s just sort of . . . eh.
Besides, [...]

How big of an upset was the Orlando Magic’s 4-2 series win over the Cleveland Cavs?
About as huge as Dwight Howard’s arms.
We sure didn’t see it coming, although I’ve been saying for three years that LeBron is the only player on that team – and that became very evident in the Eastern Conference Finals.
In fact, [...]

Yep, WCBias hits an all-time low. Way low. Like down where the flames be.
And you thought Kobe vs. LeBron would be the showdown of the millennium. Think again.
Los Angeles Laker guard Kobe Bryant, who has scored 500 points in these playoffs, was so dominant in tonight’s Game 6 victory that Denver Thuggish Ruggish Nuggets coach [...]

Honestly? I think I’d die without TiVo. Because that last minute of tonight’s Lakers game would have freakin’ killed me.
Here’s the thing: I know it makes sense to foul and call timeouts and all that crap. But do the networks have to go to commercials every friggin time? Seriously. Talk about the game a little. Show [...]

A Few Shining Examples Are Bringing Old School Socks Back to MLB Baseball
I could write something about how the storied match-up between Kobe and LeBron probably isn’t going to happen. Or I could write about how the Dodgers are kicking royal arse in the National League. But instead I’m going to write about socks.
Again.
Because a [...]

Updating Saturday’s post, it appears Kobe Bryant “was as tired as he’s ever been” after Saturday’s game and needed an IV, reports ESPN sideline “reporter” Doris Burke … on MONDAY!
Thanks for the report Doris, 48 hours later. Whatever you do, don’t ask the dude when he’s doubled over, getting ready to puke in your lap [...]

Initial thoughts from this weekend’s NBA playoff series between the Lakers and the Thuggish Ruggish Nuggets, and the Cavs and Magic (and man, have these been a couple of damn good series):
Why isn’t Chauncey Billups imbounding the rock late in those games? Did you really have Method Man K-Mart throw that ball in? Really?
How sick [...]

I’m not agro or anything, but whenever I see a guy looking for a walk in softball, there’s a small part of me that wants to pinch his head off.
Seriously. Is there anything more lame in life than a guy who wants to get a walk in softball? I mean, we’re talking about slow pitch softball. One [...]

Wow. I’m gonna have to get one of those “Free Manny” shirts BSlim developed. (That BSlim is always thinking, by the way. If he’d been around during the Gold Rush, he would have been one of those guys who got rich not by finding gold but by selling water canteens to desperate miners for 100 times the normal price.) Then once I [...]
