Twilight Trailer & NBA's 100th Game 7

This is for the ladies (who don't like reading my sports-related blog posts):The Twilight Trailer
Behind the Scenes: Making the Twilight Movie


For the guys (who don't like romantic teen vampire novels):When the 3-seeded San Antonio Spurs beat Chris Paul and the 2nd-seeded New Orleans Hornets, not only did they become the first team to start out 0-2 and win the series this post-season, but they also won the 100th Playoff Series Game 7 in NBA history. Fitting for the defending champs. Still, the NBA has got to be hoping that the Lakers win the Western Conference Finals, for ratings sake. And I'm still wondering just what the 6-seeded Phoenix Suns did so badly to get beaten in the first round. I really thought they would still be around at this point. Shaq sucks shooting free throws. But the Suns former Coach-of-the-Year head coach D'antoni still didn't deserve to get fired. I digress.

Both #1s are still in it, the Las Angeles Lakers and the Boston Celtics. Expect both to win, thanks to this year's amazing home court advantages. I'm foreseeing Game 7s 101 and 102. The NBA doesn't want the 2-seeded Detroit Pistons to win either, for ratings sake. Unfortunately, the Celts just can't seem to win on the road in the post-season, despite leading the league in road wins in the regular season. They can't afford to lose any at home in the Eastern Conference Finals or they just might be done for.

And yes Sis, I'm ordering your hat today. So Odom and Oden are two different people. Dang it. I never claimed to have a great memory did I? I still hate losing bets.


P.S. I heard back from the Phoenix Fire Department. It's good news. I'm through to the oral interviews.

So what about those people who haven't read Twilight and don't care about the NBA Playoffs anymore?

Okay, I watched the Twilight trailer.

I can dig the Bella, but the Edward just isn't doing it for me.

The whole time I was thinking, "Run, Cedric Diggory, before Voldemort kills you!"
