Around SBN: Explaining Jeremy Lin's Early, Surprising Success

JD 10/18/08

This drawer is empty.

 

Church bells will be ringing in another nine hours.

 

The NFL is playing, week seven.

 

This is our day to rest, bless us, because we have worked so hard.

 

Enjoy this, it is what it is. It can be whatever you want to make of it but don’t try to hard, because it will be. Whisper words of wisdom, let it be.

When I find myself in times of trouble

































Mother Mary comes to me































































Speaking words of wisdom































































Let it be































































And in my hour of darkness































































She is standing right in front of me































































Speaking words of wisdom































































Let it be































































 































































Let it be, let it be































































Let it be, let it be































































Whisper words of wisdom































































Let it be































































 































































When all the broken hearted people































































Living in the world agree































































There will be an answer































































Let it be































































For though they may be parted there is































































Still a chance that they will see































































There will be an answer































































Let it be































































 































































Let it be, let it be































































Let it be, let it be































































there will be an answer































































Let it be































































Let it be, let it be































































Let it be, let it be































































Whisper words of wisdom































































Let it be































































 































































Yeah, let it be, let it be































































Let it be, let it be































































There will be an answer































































Let it be































































 































































Let it be, let it be































































Let it be, let it be































































There will be an answer































































Let it be































































 































































And when the night is cloudy































































There is still a light that shines on me































































Shine until tomorrow































































Let it be































































I wake up to the sound of music































































Mother Mary comes to me































































There will be no sorrow































































Let it be































































 































































Let it be, let it be































































Let it be, let it be































































There will be no sorrow































































Let it be































































Let it be, let it be































































Let it be, let it be































































Whisper words of wisdom































































Let it be

Good thing Coach Nate thinks differently!

Let it be 20 wins does not compute for him (or for any of us).

But there is wisdom in knowing both when to change and how to change. Change for its own sake is usually change for worse.

interesting night with the blazers

it involved booze and strippers and me hanging with rudy for five minutes. Details Monday. Until then know they are good, sweet boys, just as you would expect.

There was a fanshot on it somewhere

I think it was magnum? or somebody. Can’t remember who. I don’t see the fanshot now so the league must have filled up and the fanshot deleted. If you didn’t get in, maybe you could start one up? Based on the popularity of court rivals, I’m sure there’s quiet a few people who would join.

it kinda ruins my whole perception of you….I used to think it was a racoon of some sorts…..but now that I know what it is, the only thing I can associate the tiny avatar version of it with, is a frog…..(it kinda looks like a frog?) I really liked thinking of you as a racoon though… k, I dunno why I’m spilling that out here, but… yeah…that’s a classic cycle you got there…. :)

Saturday nite bonfire

We have got a whooper of a burn pile were going to light at dark,I was thinking of sacrificing a full beer to the orthopedic gods just for luck but then I realized it would likely boil and explode. Then I had a vision of a Kobe bobblehead straped to a beer can being cast into 20 feet of flames,I dont have one handy but I could cobble up a crude voodoo doll.

by southern oregon on Oct 18, 2008 2:17 PM PDT reply actions  

are you sure its a burn day?

I had a huge pile of limbs atc that I lit on the first day they allowed it. Fire got away from me so fast, into the briars and almost into the trees around the place. Man I was spraying my hose and running around like crazy to get that fire out. Seriously, be careful, fire is dangerous. Its still extremely dry especially in the SO.

Hey last year we went camping near 3 forks and my cousin tossed a cig into the sand… about 30 minutes later a burning ring about 4 feet wide had envelope my friends tossed dewcap. The duff and surface material disseminated so coursely into what appeared to be simple dry topsoil.

Then again there’s always Beavis

My grandpa was elated everytime Jordan hit the floor. I didn’t know if that was heroically honorable or disgustingly dishonorable.

Barcelona almost beat the Lakers 104-108

With Navarro exploding for 34 points (Kobe 28, but he played much less). Our Spanish friends should be happy to have him back, while the Grizzlies should be sad he didn’t want to stay around for the rebuilding.

Bynum had 13 points but just 3 rebounds in 25 minutes.
