err...New Blog



So we went to Jump On It for my cousins birthday celebratory party Wednesday night. It consists of roughly 30 trampolines linked together. It was cool but I got some serious burnage on my knees and toe knuckles(?). I can hardly bend my right knee! We played five or six games of dodge ball, and that was cool.


Midterms are coming up and I realized the reason they set the last day to drop classes three weeks before: I would probably drop 2-3 classes, and so would everyone else. I some times curl up in a ball and weep gently. I don't know why I forget how much I dont like school when the time to sign up for classes comes around. I think I need a tattoo to remind me.


By the way, my car is for sale. It looks strikingly similar to the picture at the top. I only want $3300 for it. 1997 dodge avenger with 112,200 miles. It runs great and looks smooth. It also runs smooth and looks great.

The West Will Rise Again!

What the fetch is going on in the NBA? Apparently the eastern conference has decided to change careers 'cause they are having a liquidation sale. Since the Korver trade, Pau Gasol, Shaq, Damon Stoudamire and Jason Kidd have all made their ways to the west. The west could start a brand-new team and have a contending team with that starting 5. Is Boston so scary that the rest of the conference has decided to wait 3 or 4 years to bother playing? I am waiting for LeBron to go to Kings (get it?) for 10 first round picks and Vlade Divac just to make salaries work. Hopefully the west can trade for a few playoff spots just so there is a playoff worth watching. Let the C's, Pistons, and Magic in then give the other five spots to west teams. That would allow these currently-out-of-the-playoff teams in: Houston, Portland, Sacramento and two other teams that trade for Chris Bosh, Vince Carter, and D-Wade. Then the Western Conference will secede from the Association to become the WNBA: Western Nat'l B-ball Association. Then we spend 20 years doing an AFL-NFL thing until a merger unites the top two teams in the Super Basket Bowl. It might work.

Heart to Hart

Jason Hart makes me sick. I literally get ill watching him shoot. Before returning to action against the Nuggets, in which he had two assists and zero points, he sat out six games with back spasms. This gave UVSC alumnus Ronnie Price a chance to prove himself. For the season, J-Hart is averaging 3.3 points and 1.8 assists, and he really can't run the pick and roll. The problem with that is if you can't run the offense, then you need to be able to create shots for yourself and others which he can't do either. In the six game that allowed Ronnie to run that backup PG spot, he averaged five and two. Those arent blazing numbers but obviously they are better and while he's not great at it, he can run the pick and roll, and is way better at creating his own shot. With all-star weekend looming, the Jazz may look to move Hart and possibly C.J. Miles. Miles is simply a casualty of circumstance with the Korver trade, but is a free agent after the season potentially leaving the Jazz with nothing in return. He has played well enough in his limited minutes (and leads the jazz in 3pt %) to have value. I don't know who we could get but we always need interior defense at the 5-spot.

Nothin' new




Another week in the life of a blogger. So the Patriots didn't win, and made me look dumb but that's all right. I just hope I didn't lose any of my blogfans. To make matters worse, we lost our first basketball game by three points and are now 4-1. I thought it was our best game defensively but we just couldn't hit a shot. Terrible.
For those of you who don't know, we own a duplex. We live in the top and rent out the bottom. Our first renters were slimedogs and didn't pay rent. It took us 2 months to get rid of them and when they left the whole place was trashed. I will try and post pictures of the damage. Anyways, the people we have down there now are awesome but really wanted new carpet because, despite cleaning it twice, the old carpet smells and is gross. Well, lucky us, we found a killer deal at Lowe's and pounced like a hungry cheetah. This pleased the renters greatly and we hope they stay forever.
