Late Night Finals Ramblings & other ramblings

  
A begrudging congrats to Lebron on winning his first NBA Title.....He played phenomenal throughout the Finals and the whole Playoffs for that matter........Congrats to the Thunder, on a Hell of a Playoff run for such a young team.....They will be back next year, and better than ever......Kevin Durant needs to command the ball more.....He is the best player on his team, and they need to get him the ball more in early game situations....I still hate the Heat, although I'm torn on which Heat player I dislike most... Let's break it down list style...
.#4 Juan Howard.... you suck and hardly played....you should have retired 6-7 years ago....he is not an NBA Champion in my book.....He only played two more minutes in the Finals than I did.....#3 Mike Miller.....Enough Mike, we get it, your hurt.....no need to hold your back, or grimace every time; a younger Thunder player blows by you, you miss a shot, or turn the ball over.....It is funny that you seem healthy every time you make a shot....You're a worse actor than that chimp from Dunston Checks in, or the dog from the Air Bud series....#2 Shane Battier...... This is were the list gets really tough....Man, do I want to punch this guy right in the jijunum.....such a dirty player.....I hate; your moving screens;your blatant attempt to injure guys by sticking your foot out as they come down from shooting a jump-shot; your incessant fouling of Kevin Durant away from the ball, that for some reason doesn't get called; the smug look on your face every time a referee has the audacity to call a foul on you; and the fact that you went to Duke......#1 D'Wayne Wade.... What happened to you?......You never used to whine like a bitch after every play......It seems the worse you get, the more you complain......I can't believe how much you get bailed out by the referees...It's like they feel sorry for you......Why isn't it more of a story that it took you a year and a half to let Lebron run the team???Not only is he way better then you, he is probably the best player in the League.....One last thing, no one buys your tough guy act.....Anyone who wants to be a model in the off-season, can not be seriously taken as a tough guy.....So, quit acting hard after you get bailed out on a lay-up attempt.....Scottie Brooks, you did a horrible job in the Finals.....Why did you continue to allow Kendrick Perkins to play????He looked beyond washed up in the Finals....He was a statute, yet you kept sending him out......Derek Fisher too.....WTF???Nick Collison gave you great minutes every time he got on the court.... Yet you didn't feel the need to play him??? Maybe you should have signed that contract extension after all.......Russell Westbrook, meet Kevin Durant.........Now give him the ball......Westbrook is great, but jacking up 25-30 shots a game is unacceptable, and doesn't allow his teammates to get in any kind of a rhythm offensively.....Like the Wild's signing of Josh Harding, which I outlined in a post two months ago.....Now, they need to try and trade Nik Backstrom.....He is injury prone and old....Plus he is making $6mil this year, again......The Twins have hit the shitter again....How do you give up 9 runs to a Pirates team that is batting .230 on the year????? It's only going to get uglier when they go into Cincinnati.......The Reds have real MLB hitters and play in the most offensive ballpark east of Coors Field.....Yikes.......Sad to see the Lynx perfect season is over with.....oh wait I could care less.....If were putting them on the front page, does that mean were putting the 8th grade city champion basketball team on the front page too???? They're about the same skill level, although I think the 8th graders can dunk.......And they would kill the Lynx......How starved is this market for a winning team???? Edward Sharpe's new album is pretty good......I'm stoked for Fantasy Football to start.....It's officially the dog days of summer now that the league is done with.....All we have is baseball, and our team is shitty.......I could care less about the Summer Olympics.....Call me when the USA plays Spain in the Gold Medal game....otherwise it's all shit.....Swimming???? Track and Field???? I'd rather watch a homeless man get his face eaten by another guy......The Winter Olympics are 10X better.....I'd be pissed if I were Percy Harvin....He played in all 16 games last season, yet Devin Aroshmadu (don't care enough about him to check the spelling) played more snaps....How does that happen??? Oh Yeah we went 3-13 last year.....Adrian Peterson is a beast, or a cyborg....How do you come back that quick from two major ligament tears in your knee???? Wish more Vikings had his heart and character....Shit I wish more Minnesota professional athletes had half his heart....Yeah I'm looking at you Joe Mauer.....A thigh bruise causes you to miss a week....What a pussy.....  Lets go France....you can beat Spain on Saturday in the EURO Quarters.....
