Great Moments in Sports Center History

How hilariously bad is this?

Live Draft?

Training Camp opens in less than a month. Can you Dig It?

Even though a few of us are distant, let's get a draft day early so we can get a weekend. That way we can have as many people meet up in person for some in your face shit talking.

knock on wood...

I hope we keep it the same, nigga!

KG to Beantown?

Man, I don't even know how to feel about KG, Ray-Ray and Paul Pierce on the same team.

Agent Zero is a Freak

100,000 shots in 73 days? that's sick

Crooked Refs

I mean we all know that home teams and star players get all the breaks from the refs, but now we know some entire teams got special breaks from Tim Donaghy. The shit that comes from this scandal will be very intriguing.

Read the Simmon's take for some great stuff and here's some of the video "evidence" although i'm sure more details are on the way.

Bynum's Lone Highlight

Hope to see more of this next year

Becks?

you guys watch that joke of a soccer game with becks on the galaxy?

what was KG doing there?

and why does eva longoria kick it with posh? I can only imagine the depth of their conversations... "this dom P is a little too cold, did you see the new chanel dress i bought.." i guess they're both short skinny no talent b's with large glasses who date foreign born athletes... is that some kind of club?

anyhow, soccer is still boring. and landon donovan sucks, i could have hit that header in.

H-town in the house.

I just thought I'd put my stamp on the "new" baller's blog. TY for the heads up DK. I've revived LCBS.

pitchfork

Even without much prior knowledge of the bands performing, the Pitchfork Music Festival was one of the coolest music festivals I've ever been to. I spent nearly all of Saturday at Union Park, and most of Sunday afternoon and evening. Here's why it was so awesome:

- Public transportation. Getting there couldn't have been easier, as the park was right off the Ashland stop on the Green Line, and only three stops outside of the Loop.
- Great music. Although I knew of only a few bands in advance (The New Pornographers and Of Montreal), I enjoyed listening to most of the acts.
- Superb planning. The festival was spread across three stages, and the layout/schedule was planned perfectly such that there was no overcrowding or volume interference at any of the shows.
- Flatstock. This trade poster festival at Pitchfork was awesome. I've always been a fan of cool concert art, and this was a collection of companies that all made cool, unique, modern posters for indie rock bands and venues.
- Affordable prices. The two-day ticket was only $35, and most impressively, bottled water was only $1!!!

Another Laker Baller?

Sun Yue? Baller? We'll have to see...

If your bored and want to play fake NBA GM, check out the trade machine. I like this one.

Two of the best Lakers ever...

Do we believe espn.com and Fish returns to the Lakers?

I sure hope so. We all remember this don't we?

Now all they need to do is lure Rick Fox out of retirement. How did that latest movie turn out?
