Lakers Vs Mavs Relocated

Here is a repeat post from what was once my "Sports" Blog, but as my last post says...I'm combining them. So its a little outdated by a few months...I think we can all get over it :).  Plus...I feel like I need to find a way to incorporate Doug Funny in all my posts now...that would be pathetic and epic all at the same time.



Here's my first post on my sports blog. I've only had about 3 posts on blogs at all in my life...all being on my other blog here which is information security related.

I may combine the two...but for now I'll try this. (Update: I did combine the too...that sure didn't take long haha)

My sports blogs won't usually be real indepth, or even relevant...more of a stream of consciousnesses depending on whats on my mind.

Quick disclaimer...I love all football. I'm a big Steelers fan, but I'm also an equal opportunity fan except for Ravens, Bengals, Browns, and Patriots. I'm not saying I hate them or won't watch them...I respect them (especially ravens and pats) but I just can't root for them...for obvious reasons.

Watching the Lakers vs. Mavs game yesterday afternoon here are some of my thoughts.

#1- Kobe looks damn good in a suit.  He also looks like a natural coach...he was coaching up everyone on the team individually at some point.  He even was coaching up Mike Brown, which personally worries me for the strength of the team...he can't coach and play when he comes back.

#2- Dirk  is one of the best shooters in the game when he is on, which is more often than not. However...he never does anything half-assed. If he is playing well, then he is playing lights out amazing. If he is playing bad, he is playing lights out terrible. That was the case during most of this game.

#3-Bynum has been getting a lot of negative (and positive) attention this year.  All of a sudden it seems like he's the hot topic cause he's playing so well, and so now everyone is hating on him for different reasons. If it was that much of an issue, they should have been talking about it the past few years...why wait until he starts playing the best basketball of his career to bring up the negative side? I know this is how sports media works and I hate it...but it is a business too.

#4-I still don't know for sure whether Kobe actually jumped over this Aston Martin or not.  There's tons of people that say no, tons of people that say yes.  Personally...it looks to me like he is closer to the camera than the car is, so he's jumping on the side of it...not actually over it.  However, he does clear it either way...so I say it counts.

#5-Did anyone watch Doug? The cartoon on Nick?  Doug had one outfit that he always wore:

In a few episodes he opens his closet and there's about 9 sets of this exact same outfit.  I feel like if I looked in Mark Cuban's closet it would be the same thing:

He would have 50 pairs of those jeans, and like 60 Mavs shirts. The shirt isn't always the exact same, except that its always a mavs shirt, and it always shows his gut when he stands up.

Lastly...if he had a closet full of "faces", the one in this picture would be 95% of them.  He always looks a little confused/angry. Hard to tell...constipated maybe.

I'm almost done with Mark...I just have to add that I rarely see him with people. Maybe he wants to keep the spotlight to himself, maybe he doesn't want his friends in the public eye...but at games he always seems to be by himself. I think he needs a friend that will go to games with him. 

Blogomorph!

Though I've only had about 4 posts between my two new blogs (created in April I believe) I think I'm going to combine them.  I sometimes feel the urge to blog about my life, sports, work...and instead of having a sports blog and an information security blog (with nothing for random life posts) I think I'll combine them all. Maybe someone coming here because of some information security buzzword will stumble across a funny life moment of mine, or an interesting sports opinion...who knows.  I honestly don't even know that anyone will ever read any of these :), but I'll put them out there regardless. Though, as I said, I haven't done much since I started my first blog a few months ago, it is kind of a nice release to put things out there, whether anyone reads or responds. 

However, comments, positive or negative, are encouraged. If I can't take the bad, I don't deserve the good! :)

So anywho...this is just a post saying I'm combining everything. More posts to come for sure, now that I don't feel the need to categorize everything quite as much.

By the way...I named this post Blogomorph...and being a kid of the 90's, I can't help but think about Animorphs.  Modern day, I'm a True Blood fan...so technically Sam would be an "Animorph" or as they say a "Shape Shifter".  Is shape shifter the politically correct term, and animorph is derogatory? hmmm...

What about Manimal? Did anyone watch that show? I wasn't even born yet...but somehow I've seen it.

I'm starting to digress...next post :)
