Just a few things that we all need to know....
How screwed up at life do you have to be for John Lucas to give up on you? That is the question I would like to ask 2007 1st overall pick JaMarcus Russell. John Lucas has been helping young men gain control of their lives again for around 20 years, and never has a story been written where he's given up on someone, at least not to my memory. JaMarcus, quit drinking the sizzzurp and get your ass to the gym, pronto, if you ever want to redeem yourself as a man. Guy is only like 25 years old-anyone else scared they're about to read about him in the paper doing something that has the word 'felony' in it?
Anyone think the NHL will smarten up on hits to the head? Howard Bryant thinks so. How about now that Sidney Crosby hasn't played since January, and didn't suit up for the world champions? Are there whispers of Eric Lindros whirling around, and that's why the Penguins are being so cautious? What are the odds that once the season is over that Matt Cooke is gone? What if this had something to do with concussions? Here's hoping it didn't. My condolences to Derek Boogaard's family and friends.
That's it????? 5 games??? David Stern, you're a pussy. Andrew Bynum should have gotten 25 games, minimum. When Magic Johnson, Jerry West and James Worthy all call what he did a classless move and a smear on the Lakers franchise, take note. Way to take a stand. Me and the rest of the conspiracy theorists will have a field day with this one.
You stay classy, ESPN.
And add this to that 'classy' list while you're at it. Funny, you report this right off the bat, and it may be nothing, as I have no clue what constitutes any of Barnaby's alledged charges, but Jalen Rose got busted for DUI and you waited a month (couldn't have had anything to do with that controversial Fab Five '30 for 30' documentary Rose produced, could it? Nahhhh).
Things are about to get ugly in New York-the media is not going to let this story just go away like a fart after a stay at the chinese buffet. As much as I don't like the NYY, y'all know this, I think one of their own should be treated better than an interview during a game against your heated rivals. Yes, I'm staring at you, Brian Cashman.
NBA Conference Finals picks
Eastern Conference
Miami vs. Chicago: The first game of this series is on right now as I type this. Here is Jason Whitlock's take, and I love it. The Bulls have the biggest advantage over Miami-at the Point. The Celtics would have exposed it had D-Wade not pulled down Rajon Rondo and assisted with a dislocation of the elbow (this, by the way, is not up for discussion). D-Wade tries any of this stuff with Rose and he will be dealt with properly. Yes, I'm upset that the C's didn't handle Wade or that crybaby LeDouche early and often-it cost them the series. To see LeBron James cry like Jordan was pathetic. Jordan had lost his father. All LeBron did was move on to another round of the playoffs-he ain't won shit yet. Oh, and then after telling us that the Celtics are a good team, he finally apologized to Cleveland. What an ass. Do you think he would have apologized had the Heat lost the series to the Celtics? Me, neither. So watch in wonderment the new kid on the block, Derrick Rose. I'm rooting for anyone not wearing a Heat jersey (it'll be bad for sport if they win anything this year). Who wins? Chicago in 6 (please, Sports Gods?)
Western Conference
Oklahoma City vs. Dallas: Yes, Dallas will have some rust after having 9 days off. But they are too deep. Enjoy watching Durant and Nowitzki, it's going to be fun. The battle on the boards will be huge, but does OKC have enough firepower? Only if James Harden comes off the bench in every game scoring 15-20. Who wins? Dallas in 6.
Enjoy your week!
