Spurs in Six

Wow. Simply wow.

A few years ago (1998, to be exact), Micheal Jordan sank a jump shot to win the NBA Finals for the Bulls.

In 1981 Larry Bird picked up his own rebound and scored, all while falling out of bounds.

And today, just a few hours ago in Detroit, Robert Horry scored with just 5.9 seconds remaining... a huge 3 point jumpshot that put the Spurs ahead by one point.

It was all they needed.

I'll post some more in a bit - I want to let this whole thing sink in a bit, first.

Fall from Grace - An intro

Christ, did you see Tyson on the weekend? He looked like a dead pig, lying on the freeway. It was horrible, a terrible loss and the end of a career.

It doesn't seem like that long ago when Mr. Mike was one of the most feared people in the world - he would demolish his foes in a short time, making them look like fools. Then, about 15 years ago he began to slip in Tokyo. And ever since that fateful loss, it's been a steady downhill fall for Mike... one which hopefully ended with Mike pulling a John Lennon in the 7th round.

Not exactly the way to open a blog, I guess, but whatever. It works about as well as I want to, which truthfully, isn't a whole heck of a lot.

Selah,
