Have you ever been turned down by that cute girl or guy in your class? If you haven’t, but I’m sure you have, the Boston Celtics were just turned down by the “Big Ticket”. Kevin Garnett told his agent Andy Miller to get the word to the Celts that he does not have any interest […]

Two championships with the Houston Rockets. Three with the Los Angeles Lakers. And let’s not forget two more with the Spurs. Robert Horry is a championship ring manufacturer ladies and gentlemen. The man has a knack for helping his teams deliver the goods when it counts. How about giving him the nickname of “Mailman”?
Karl Malone […]

Forget what Spurs’ head coach Gregg Popovich says about his team, the Spurs ARE a dynasty. They impressively knocked off the Cavs in 4 straight games to win their 4th NBA title in 9 seasons.
How many teams have hovered around a championship for the past 9 years? Only the New England Patriots have been pretty […]

Call it a boring series but the Spurs fandom doesn’t think so. I live in the Dallas area and the hatred for the Spurs and the love for the Mavs rivals each other like Duke and North Carolina fans.
The Spurs are one win away from winning their fourth championship in 9 seasons and many non-Spurs […]

Let me take a second to clear the internet waves, LeBron DID get fouled. First off, I have a couple of questions about the no-call. If the three goes in, would there have been a continuation? Or was the foul even a shooting foul? And if the officials in fact would have called a foul, […]

The television screen went black last night. Nope, not for the ending of the Sopranos but for the ending of Game 2 for the Cleveland Cavaliers. The Spurs were dominant in every single way against the Eastern Conference Champs. And while the Sopranos are still fresh on our minds, didn’t you think that your cable […]

Let me be the first to say that being in any car accident is the worst. I’ve been blessed and lucky to be able to walk away from the 3 fender-benders that I’ve been involved in. Oh, and yes I was wearing a safety belt on all three occasions.
Over the weekend word got out that […]

You don’t have to say it but to borrow a line from the 1995 movie Dumber & Dumber, “I was WAY off”. I picked the Cleveland Cavs to steal Game 1 of the Finals and make this series interesting. Boy was I wrong!! What city did the Cavs’ team plane land, Corpus Christi?
Everyone knows that […]

Every NBA player would love to be playing in the month of June. In fact, I’m pretty sure they’ll at least be watching every game of this season’s NBA Finals that pairs the Spurs and the Cleveland Cavaliers. Which team do you think will walk away as champions of the 2006-07 season? Not many of […]

I’ve already made my series pick but if you want to know what it is again, I’m going with the Spurs to win in 6. Notice that I did give the Cavs 2 wins in this series, however. I think that the NBA’s oldest team is capable of playing young. In fact, the Spurs are […]
