Lakers In A No Doubter

So this was the scenario just a season ago...with your villain, Ron Artest, in the face of your fav, Kobe Bryant....fast forward to this year...the bad boy, now a Laker,  tips in the game winner vs. Los Suns at the buzzer and is now the hero...well, not so fast my faithful...Artest took the worst shots possible in the final minute of the game and was very, very, fortunate to grab and release the Bryant air ball...it is said that Phil Jackson is the best coach of all NBA time...he has his hands full with this guy...have to eat some of my words, the last 2 playoff series are mildly interesting...
Padres...they have this Thursday afternoon delight...call it Retro...they put on these hideous uni's that are brown and yellow, reminiscent of Wyoming's sooooo uglies, and promptly, play like them...regardless, they won the St. Louie series and move on to host the surprising Nats...AND are in 1st place by 2 games...and have the best record in the National League...yet, the attendance is hovering around 20 grand...

I know this is like beating a dead horse...but...did you watch the final DWTS?  The horrific Kate Gosselin was back on the program and stinking up the place...her attitude is deplorable and just as bad to have to watch...what makes it worse is that she thinks that she is deserving...get her off the TV waves people...but I read an article this am that says that the general public likes to watch her train wreck and likes to hate her...how about that!  Not me, it is disgusting and "turn away, you're hideous"...
Idol thoughts redux...my good fellow Snook, remarks about not watching the Idol show anymore, due to the winner in the last 2 seasons not being as deserving as the runner-up...WELL, yes...it is a curious thing...but, there are so many different types actually voting...do you?  I'm going to do a reversal of your favorite Survivor, Russell the Rat...got to think the judges get a partial vote...personally, Lee or Crystal, it was a tossup...but back over time, Adam Lambert was way better than ???, forgot his name already, AND, Katherine McPhee was way better than the silver headed foo that won that time...the show itself needs new life...voting process,  judges...go to the method of DWTS...
Hey, plug that hole up!
