and that sequence with Rudy at the end of the third was a back breaker. I can’t wait for him to do that in the playoffs!!!!!!!!

My coworker turned it to the History Channel and there is a thing on about restoring some house Madison lived in.
Another coworker just went home after 2 hours of OT. He was doing a cut over.
I’m listening to Brandon Roy on the Center Court blog.
I realized today that I’m mathematically eliminated from being correct on the amount of wins the Blazers will have this season. Maybe I should count the playoffs.

Do you have a lot of idle time while at work?

Sounds like you could almost study part-time. And move on to a job where you have less time :)

The Consultant and the Fisherman

A management consultant, on holiday in a fishing village, watched a little fishing boat dock at the quayside. Noting the quality of the fish, the consultant asked the fisherman how long it had taken to catch them.

"Not very long." answered the fisherman.

"Then, why didn’t you stay out longer and catch more?" asked the consultant.

The fisherman explained that his small catch was sufficient to meet his needs and those of his family.

The consultant asked, "But what do you do with the rest of your time?"

"I sleep late, fish a little, play with my children, have an afternoon’s rest under a coconut tree. In the evenings, I go into the community hall to see my friends, have a few beers, play the drums, and sing a few songs….. I have a full and happy life." replied the fisherman.

The consultant ventured, "I have an MBA and I can help you…. You should start by fishing longer every day. You can then sell the extra fish you catch. With the extra revenue, you can buy a bigger boat. With the extra money the larger boat will bring, you can buy a second one and a third one and so on until you have a large fleet. Instead of selling your fish to a middleman, you can negotiate directly with the processing plants and maybe even open your own plant. You can then leave this little village and move to a city here or maybe even in the UK or US, from where you can direct your huge enterprise."

"How long would that take?" asked the fisherman.

"Oh, ten, maybe twenty years." replied the consultant.

"And after that?" asked the fisherman.

"After that? That’s when it gets really interesting," answered the consultant, laughing, "When your business gets really big, you can start selling shares in your company and make millions!"

"Millions? Really? And after that?" pressed the fisherman.

"After that you’ll be able to retire, move out to a small village by the sea, sleep in late every day, spend time with your family, go fishing, take afternoon naps under a coconut tree, and spend relaxing evenings havings drinks with friends…"

I just spent about $100 on cleaning products to make the appartment look nice my landlord wants to sell

Why exactly is that my job again? Yeah I like it when everything is clean and the mold on the terrace is killed, but I should get a share of the added revenue. Like those specialists that make your old car look clean and shiny before you sell it.

Maybe for the next visiting couple I let some bags of garbage and dishes standing around. I like my old landlord after all, why would I want to get a new one who likely only wants to recoup his investments, raise the rent and ultimately throw me out because his children need it or something.

Oh, and they are filming some movie or TV episode in my street. 2 RVs, several trucks of equipment, lots of lights, one house with darkened windows. Need to investigate what that is all about.

On PTI and ATH, the only comment about last night's game...

I’m not even sure they even noted who Portland was playing, except in the footage of the Rudy dunk that led to the Shaq/Lopez exchange.

Maybe Shaq told Robin,

No :-(

I lied about watching the game just to make friends :-(

I gave ‘em my own standing ovation, alone in my dark living room, as the buzzer sounded. Awesome game, super duper fun to watch, and while not a ’must win’, it sure makes it a lot more likely we won’t really have a ‘must win’ until the playoffs start.

Huge win, and a big deal to blow out a team like the Suns, with NUMEROUS hall of famers, who are still good and playing for their lives. They had a lot more to lose than we did, and we creamed ’em. I gotta be honest… I liked that.

Shaq is just so cool and deserves one more ring.
Steve Kerr is nice.

No, I agree with ya

I feel bad for the fans mostly though, because that team was so awesome and so fun… but just, for a variety of reasons, couldn’t get it done in the WCF.

A few LITTLE things go their way over the past few years, and everyone has a team they can point to as the exception of ‘you gotta play defense to win championships’.

It’s so sad to watch them, since they’re still good, but not good enough to win 50 games and make the playoffs or make any noise if they squeezed in. It’s the end of an era, an era that was known for playoff failures and ends with their team scoring better than ever but still just not good enough. Another also-ran contender, like us in the early 00’s, early 90’s, or the Kings of recent years. Good memories for all involved, but because they couldn’t get over the top there is always a sad taste left in your mouth memory.

As a NBA fan, it’s a bummer to see a fun team like this fade to meaninglessness. Same for the Mavs. As a fan of these teams, how do you get excited for the games right now? Once they blow it up and rebuild you can get excited again, focusing on the lottery picks and the hope for the future, but right now… it’s pointless.

Every win means nothing, every loss confirmation of the lack of meaning. For teams that were until recently championship contenders, missing or squeaking into the playoffs makes your existence irrelevant as a team. There’s just not point to the Suns or Mavs anymore.

And for fans of these teams that were on top with title hopes just a little bit ago… that sucks.

We’ll be there someday, but it’ll be a dozen years from now or so. And I think we’ll have a title or 5 to look back on to make the memories un-bittersweet.

Once you try for the title and fail, as a fan I’d rather ya blow it up fast and start over again. Watching guys like Dirk and Nash and Shaq be failures (because anything less than the best is failure for them) is no fun.

Dumars had the right idea— after several years of not being able to win it all after the fluke title and other teams on the rise while you know you’re declining, make a move that makes it so you can start over right away. It is more fun to watch as a fan, and ya got renewed hope for the future.

I'm watching Zodiac

Have ya seen it? Where is everyone? Why aren’t we partying, man?

I’ve gotten your recent emails, I need to write ya back, dude. Don’t be hatin’ all up in my grill, ah’ight?

I guess this is the bad thing about watching a game 24 hours after everyone else does. I wanna rap about the game, and everyone else says it be played out yo. WELL BUMP THAT.

BUMP IT, I DOTH SAY.

That happens to me a lot

I normally watch the games the next morning after hanging out here all night. It’s kind of nice to read Dave’s recap and know what to look for. It’s also lame when you want to chat about something you noticed that no one seemed to mention and no one seems to care.

It was "mascot night" at the Rose Garden, which apparently translates to a dozen inflatable versions of various NBA mascots being chased around the arena by Portland's "Blaze", which is some breed of rapist dog. -PostingandToasting

I never know the outcome when I watch it so late

I stay away from the interweb and I tell all I meet that if they tell me what happened in my game I will punch them. My friend last night, after I warned him, sent me a text saying Oden was blocking shots like crazy, and I figured he was joking (once, he knew I wasn’t able to watch the game live, and sent me a text while I was at a meeting saying “Man I can’t believe Oden got hurt again, looks really serious too”. LUCKILY, I didn’t notice the text till the next day AFTER I had watched the game and obviously Oden hadn’t gotten hurt— if I got that text during the meeting before I watched the game, I woulda freaked out, had to find out what happened right away, and the game would be ruined for me and my night as well and I would never forgive my friend).

When I saw the game and Oden WAS blocking shots, I got pissed cuz my friend is breaking the rule that I am quite serious about.

Even if it’s something good, I don’t wanna know it before I get to watch it. I hate that.

I don't think I could pull that off

I’ve tried before and then saw the score on the ticker on ESPN.

doesn't sound like the right type of "friend"

"Sergio and I obtained chalupas to understand their power. Then Sergio showed that each one has 427 calories and 27 grams of fat. Leaping upwards, we reviled the accursed chalupa and its pressure. – Rudy Fernandez

Yeah

I woke up early for the Suns game and watched it before work. Normally I don’t have time and just DVR it, because my wife comes home and I have to act like I want to hear how her day went.
