Re: NBA Finals
The ticker at the WWLIS is reporting that Kobe Bryant's response to Howard signing with the Rockets was to unfollow him on Twitter and post a photo of himself with Pau Gasol on Instagram. Basically, he's a scorned high school cheerleader. I read that too. Hysterical. Him and Pau BFFs! Lakercorazon!...

Re: Championships - How Many You Got?
Can I count a championship from a school I didn't go to if I was in attendance for the winning game? If so, I'm counting the '02 CWS champion Longhorns. Also the day Daryl Kile died. That was quite the buzzkill to hear when we got back to the car to make our journey back to Austin.

Re: NBA Finals
Not having Duncan in when you need a stop and a rebound to win the fucking championship is about an indefensible a decision as one can make. Almost as bad was leaving Manu in the entire time too. Momentum schomentum, the Spurs still should've won despite all that, so I think they take game 7 by 10.

The only sliver lining in today's Tigers/Twins debacle was the Tigers broke the AL record for most consecutive games throwing 10+ strikeouts. With four games against the Astros coming up, they could really put some distance away on that one. Going to Minute Maid tonight with my buddy from Michigan.
