  2. Lakers? Who cares about the Lakers?
    I mean, maybe if they can get a dynasty going, then we can all piss and moan about them…. But otherwise….

  3. They give.
    Fresh milk and piping hot scones to young kids.
    And they read them stories.
    Because it’s about heart.
    And SUVs.
    And T-Mac can fly.
    With laser beams.
    And shit.

  4. Now don’t diss the Lakers for being givers.
    There are some teas that need people to give.
    But if you’re gonna give, don’t play sports.

  5. whoa, it’s a bold world, today.
    (I have nothing to cotribute to a discussion about basketball, I just came by to see who was aggrieved by the irc logs 😉

  7. Lakers????? HOW ABOUT THOSE ROCKETS! wait… does Houston even have a team anymore. I hate my hometowns sports teams. cept the comets..cuz they actually win.

  8. and how come on top of this here comments page, it says
    …Comment on Blowing the lead, 101…
    is that html supposed to show up?

  10. Well at least you guys have the Lakers.
    I got really pissed off that Columbus’ NHL team wasn’t called the Mad Cows.
    Come on Wendy’s would of sponsored that!

  11. Mmmhh…yeah…blowing a lead, Lakers aren’t the only ones who can do it. Take the Patriots for example, they blew an 18 point lead, and now are ahead by six, and might not even win cause they have the nincompoop Bledsoe in there. God help the Pats.

  12. Eh. Sports shmorts. I haven’t watched basketball since the year the Rockets won their second championship. And everything just seemed to fall apart after that.
    Besides, how can you watch sports when TNN is playing a ST:TNG marathon? Huh? Huh? Explain yerselves!
    No, don’t. Really. Watch whatcha want. Who’m I to judge?
    🙂 Enjoy the rest of your weekend, everyone!

  13. I used to watch sports. Then I moved to a small Missouri town that cares for nothing except high school football. They don’t even carry decent games on TV. It’s sad, really.

  14. Spudnuts is the beacon of…the beacon of…uhm.
    The beacon of.
    Something.
    Something always irreverent, annoying, thought-provoking…
    But always funny.
    Always.
    And he writes in this…certain way.
    Lakerboard, baby. Lakerboard.

  15. I think it’s safe to say, from what I’ve read, that only Spudnuts can truly describe Spudnuts. Nothing else could do it justice.
    Well, this is all I could come up with. I’m just not a Laker fan. Anyone wanna talk hockey?

  16. Yeah, we’re officially in Bizarro world.

    My brief impression of Shaq, ladies and gentlemen. Thank you, I’m here all week and I also do bar mitzvahs.

  17. What about the Laker Girls? What happened to them? Doesn’t ANYONE pay attention to these pillars of society?
    *Someone’s* gotta shake the booty…

  18. I dont know much about Lakers, but Tony Hawk was here in south africa, and i saw him today. it was AWESOME. thanks to Wil for introducing him and letting me know abt him.

  19. Sorry about the Lakers, I guess, but I’m just a hockey fan. Just got in from an afternoon game where the Montreal Canadiens beat San Jose, 3-1 and also scored their 10,000th goal on home ice. I’m still excited about it all.

  20. Approximately 20 minutes since my post and two mentions of hockey!
    Woo hoo!
    Now we’re getting somewhere!

  25. I have just one thing to say to you people:
    THE PATRIOTS ARE GOING TO THE SUPERBOWL!!! (now let’s see if they can finally win one…)

  29. omigosh! *rubbing her eyes* I must have been sleeping … WHEN did we get the ability to make comments again!?!
    Hi again everyone!
    uhm … Wil, did you know that this screen doesn’t work in Netscape?

  31. hey what happened to the tolietduk thing, I was trying to shoow my friend it and it won’t load? Anyone got any suggestions?!

  34. Um, I live on the East Coast and I don’t even know if we get Lakers games on regular cable. But, you know what the Beach Boys say, “The East Coast girls are hip”. Well, I guess I’m not really living up to that reputation, I mean I am in your posse, so how hip could I be. Teehee, I’m just kidding Wil, don’t be angry at me.

  37. Someday, Wil will speak of the Cheese the way he speaketh of thine Spudnutseth.
    Until then, Wil remains apart from the cheese…and not at one with the cheese.
    Nor my stylish Nextel phone.
    Lakers: Long live Rodman.

    Or even Canadian.
    It’s great to at least write in a proper language, eh?
    Neh.

  41. Not working for me ether. I thought it was my shitty computer, but I guess it’s a technical problem.

  43. Lakers? What happened to the Lakers? Don’t care. HUGE Sixers fan -AI is the man. And as far as the Super Bowl goes: Go Pats! (of course if the Eagles won I’d be singing a different tune). Hockey being my favorite sport, how could I not comment on that,since its been brought up. I could not be more happy the the Flyers & Detroit are #1 in their respective conferences. My two favorite teams.
    I go just about as nuts for sports as I do for Trek. Especially my hometown teams. But don’t despair Lakers fans, you will see your team in the NBA championship, they may have lost tonight but they are still a damn fine team.

  47. Wait…..now the Soapbox is working for me. Ignore my first post. Sorry. You still having problems, Melanie? (ugh. computer problems + drinking = major headache)

  48. The Laker’s were just helping the 76er’s over the hill.Now they are a whole game over .500%.
    Later

  49. The Lakers weren’t “helping” anybody. They didn’t “give the game away”. Two good teams played a basketball game. Both teams play hard. Some one had to win and surprise, it wasn’t the Lakers. Why dump on the other team? The Sixers won b/c they played well, not b/c the Lakers let them. That’s also disrespectful to the Lakers. They are competitors, they would never just let some one win. Maybe they didn’t play as well as one thought they should have played. But saying they essentially rolled over diminishes both teams.

  50. The Lakerboard gets everything… the good, the bad, the embarassing, the obscene, the superfluous.
    It’s my dumping ground.
    They know me all too well over there, and no doubt most of them wish they knew me a whole lot less.
