MOB: LBJ and I run isolation in different circles

Check out my latest entry to Monster on the Boards.

Here's hoping the Magic play just as well against the Lakers.

New bars on the bike

In the fall I ordered clubman handlebars for my '78 Honda CB 550. Well, at last, they're on the bike, thanks to Josh.

Anxiety/Excitement: Missing Girl Talk?

The Sasquatch Music Festival weekend is fast approaching. We leave for the Gorge in Washington at 7 a.m. on Saturday, two cars, six people, two tents, five pounds of peanut butter, and a few tubs of sunscreen.

I'm getting excited. So many great bands, five great people to join in the drinking and dancing and driving. But it is nearly 6 hours away, so a few people are going to want to head back before the 7:15 performance by Girl Talk on Monday night. I don't know how to convince a car to stick around that long, since I'm not driving, but I'll keep saying how he'll be one of the best performances of the entire weekend. Fingers crossed.

2008-2009 slam stats

All the dunk stats you can digest, thanks to Roto Evil.

Great work. And check the disclaimer at the bottom.

Blazers had the 5th most dunks this season. As noted on Roto Evil, the team should stay near the top of that list with all those young legs, despite the slow (and effective) offense they run.
