They're one-quarter of the way to a sweep.

And it's soooooo boring, I turned it off to watch the White Sox/Mariners game.

What a great [censored] day. I was scared to get my hopes up, but I think we may have a series here. Prince matches up well with Kobe, and Detroit's team D is the best I've seen in years.

How sweet would it be if L.A. loses? All these Laker fans forget that it was the Mailman who objected when Magic was going to play in the All-Star game after contracting H.I.V. [censored] tossers.

Maybe the good guys can pull it off for once.

That's 5 in a row for the Pistons against the Lakers in the NBA Finals.

The Pistons are the good guys? That's not right. Can't it just be the lesser of two evils which wins?

Can the pistons keep the Lakers under 80 points for four games?

That was an immpressive win, and Larry Brown's most important game of his coaching career. He will have to try and stay one step ahead of Phil in the coaching arena to match and anticipate changes. But at least now, the Pistons have a chance.

The Mariners pulled out an exciting win in the bottom of the ninth. I had to read about it as I missed the game. I'm grasping at straws for good news because that's all I've got.

Well, the Piston win was Good News.

I heard on the radio the other day how the chant, "Beat L.A.!" originated. In the early '80s, the Celtics hosted the Sixers in Game 7 of the Eastern Conference Finals. The Lakers had already advanced in the West. When it became clear that Philly was going to win, the Boston fans began chanting, "Beat L.A.!"--to the opposing team.

I don't know if it's true or not, but it's a telling story. Surely any enmity a Celtics fan feels toward Detroit is dwarfed by his hatred of the Lakers. In my book, the Lakers are the same as the Yankees and Duke basketball.

Compared to L.A., the Bad Boys are all good.

I always thought it was Giants fans that started that one. It amazes me that East coast fans actually hate LA teams enough to start that but I guess as far as the Lakers it makes sense.
