An important point. While some other BN artists were making cookie-cutter, by-the-numbers albums during this period, it seems like most of Andrew's were intended to be unique statements. Guy

I'm really looking forward to the day that Bonds destroys Aaron's old record. All those heads exploding... Guy

Scott Skiles and Big Daddy almost got into a fistfight once.

Awesome. One of my buddies had an Oscar cichlid that would eat out of his hand! Guy

SS1, How often do you clean your tank? Do you have plastic or real plants? Guy

I think I used to have one of these when I was a teenager. A nasty little fucker, he attacked my other fish. Guy

Woah, sorry dude. No intent to offend. Guy

This is a nice date... nothing earthshaking, but nice. Guy

Three days rest before game 1... After game 2, the games are every other day. Don Nelson uses a rotation of only 8 players, so that could end up hurting Golden State if the series goes long. Baron is quite injury-prone and he'll be playing 45 minutes per game. Guy

Boozer having a great game... but it looks like Houston owns the Jazz. Guy

Agreed. I don't understand the box set fetish. Guy

Clearly, that makes everything worse, but Yeltsin wasn't responsible for what had been going in since the days of Brezhnev. And with a more gradual transition from a totally command economy to a free market, there would have been more time to develop new habits. MG Agreed. Guy

I don't think this would have been as big of a problem had corruption and cronyism not been as bad. Guy

It's a shame he wasn't a better leader. Guy

BARON DAVIS! Now, I know that realistically the Warriors will be lucky to win more than 2 games in this series, but that was fantastic. On the one hand, Dallas played like crap. One the other hand, aside from Stephen Jackson and Baron everybody on the Warriors played like crap. This could become a good series. Warriors vs. Nuggets conference finals! (not likely, I'll admit) Guy

Bonds hits #740! Guy

Magic Johnson: one of the greatest all time players, one of the worst all time analysts

DAMN... Kobe has 28 at the half. Suns playing AWFUL. Though if I'm the Suns, I've got to feel pretty good about Kobe dominating the Lakers' offense. Guy

Anybody read Jack McCallum's book on the 2005-2006 Phoenix Suns? Here's amazon's summary: Here's a review. Some highlights:

Gotta agree with Ubu and Bright Moments -- this is a very nice album. My first ever Tzadik CD. Guy

A few years ago, when that Natalee Holloway pseudo-story was on TV 24/7, Bob Costas (who was filling in for LK as host) refused to do the show because the producers insisted on running a Holloway segment. Guy

This show is a disgrace. (Though sadly par for the cable news course.) Guy

Darko is getting booed in Detroit. Strange -- we're not talking about a good player here... Guy

Bulls looked like they were going to choke this one away... they better hope that Shaq fouls out of a few more games. The Raptors' inexperience really showed in the earlier game. Given Carter's mediocre game they had a golden opportunity. Guy
