  • 2 For Tuesday

    Being a single guy without any kids I can't write about problems with my significant other or kids; instead I write about things that are more trivial and not as important, such as sports, which I try not to write about often. Well, I'm a big fan of the Chicago Bulls and last night's game has really stuck in my craw as they say. By the way, is that the saying, craw? Or is it crawl? I dunno, either way, I'm still pissed about the game. The Bulls, who in their own right, suck, were at home against an almost equally suck ass team, the Sacramento Kings, a team that they beat in Sacramento last month. So when the Bulls went up by 35 motherfucking points midway through the 3rd quarter, it was to be expected that they would win. I thought about turning the tv off and doing something else, my thought being that either that this game was over or that if they did somehow manage to blow it, I would not want to see it. Well, I continued to watch and all of a sudden, they started to suck. Really bad. Eventually, you guessed it, they lost the fucking game! While they were in the process of blowing it, I sent a text to one of my friends stating that if they lose this fucking game, they should fire coach Vinny Del Negro before he even gets back to the locker room. Its not just this game that would be reason enough to fire him; he is an awful coach. But, here are the things that have happened this month alone that warrant him being gone:

    • December 5- The Bulls lose at home by 32 points to the Toronto Raptors. During the game, one of the Raptor's players stops to tie his shoe while the 5 Bulls players watch do nothing.
    • December 8- The Bulls lose at home to the worst team in the NBA, the New Jersey Nets. Coming into the game, the Nets had won one game the entire season. Since beating the Bulls, they have yet to win another game.
    • December 9- The Bulls lose by 35 to the Atlanta Hawks.
    • December 12- The Bulls lose by 26 at home to the Boston Celtics. Sure, Boston is a great team, but this is getting old.
    • December 21- The Bulls blow a 35 point 3rd quarter lead at home.
    • December 22- The Bulls lose to the Knicks. Although I had the game on when I was washing the dishes, I don't pay much attention to it due to my being so pissed at them. 

    I've decided that I want Metallica to do an album of tv theme songs. They can start with the theme from Blossom! Then, they can follow it up with the themes from Punky Brewster, The Golden Girls, Silver Spoons, Different Strokes, Three's Company and 60 Minutes. Oh, I'm well aware that 60 Minutes doesn't have a theme song, but this will give Metallica a chance to show off their writing skills by writing a theme song for the show. Plus, haven't you always wanted Metallica to work with Andy Rooney and Mike Wallace? I'm gonna fire off an email to the boys in Metallica to get them on board with the idea. I'll keep you posted. Just imagine how many people will buy this album?

  • It's "craw."  A craw is an organ in a bird's neck where bits of dirt and other indigestable items are caught temporarily until the bird's system dissolves them.

    I hope you have a great Christmas with your family, and I also hope the new year brings you great joys and blessings.  Take care, and thanks for all the laughs throughout the year.

  • Thanks for the clarification, I've always wondered about that saying and after reading the definition, I kinda felt that way Monday night after watching that game!

    Thanks man, the same to you. You hadn't commented in a long time so I was worried that you stopped reading due to something I had written in a post.

  • @heckels - Oh, I drop by almost every day.
