Very nice, classy article.
Phil Jackson could learn from it—it ain’t the rain that makes them lose.

nice post
Other than death and taxes, only 4 things in this world are indisputable:
Brandon Roy is the BEST player in the NBA in the clutch.
Montana to Rice were the greatest to ever play the game.
The Four Horsemen of Maddux, Smoltz, Glavine and Avery were unstoppable.
No one protects the pipes like Luongo.

The Lakers have lost eight consecutive games in Portland. And whereas no one in Southern California gave a second thought to Trevor Ariza’s March flagrant foul on Rudy Fernandez after Lamar Odom’s one-game suspension was announced the next day, the locals here kept talking about it for a whole month. That’s why all those boos rained down on Ariza early Friday night. – kding@ocregister.com
I suppose the larger the population, the shoter the attention span, obviously..
