Sunday I asked listeners to give me the movie quote that best sums up how they feel about the Detroit Lions. I had alot of good ones, but here were the top five. Oh wait! Before I get to there's, here's my number 1.
"This is your team!" - Norman Dale. HOOSIERS
My honerable mention is...
"Yes dey' diserved to die and I hope dey' burn in Hell!"
The listeners gave us a ton to work with, but we have chosen the following five.
1. "Stupid is is stupid does" - Forrest Gump. FORREST GUMP
2. "You can't handle the truth" - Col. Nathan Jessup. A FEW GOOD MEN
3. "Fat, drunk and stupid is no way to go through life son" - Dean Wormer. ANIMAL
HOUSE
4. "Nobody goes full retard" - Sgt. Lincoln Osiris. TROPIC THUNDER
5. "Hey I'm a reasonable guy. But I've just experienced some very unreasonable
things". - Jack Burton. BIG TROUBLE IN LITTLE CHINA
Saw what you want about the Celtics. They have a crapload of talent, and for some reason they love to show it off at home. The Pistons needed to come out of the gate firing and they did. The only problem was that they weren't hitting anything. That fact that it was a one point game at halftime can only be attributed to the fact that the Celtics were out there hacking. I am not prepared to say that the Celtics are better than the Pistons, but they are at home and they were tonite.
The hammy looked it was bothering Chauncey a bit. Seemed like he had alot of rust on him. The bottom line on this game was Rasheeeeeed! Was 1-7 from the field at one point and took an aweful three at the three minute mark and down six. That pretty much killed all remaining chances. The Celtics beat the Pistons with their Big 2 tonite, which sucks because at some point Ray Allen will show up.
Oh yeah. Probaby don't wanna start the game down 8-0. Probably not the best way to start Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals.
Did this action by a fan in New Orleans cross the line? I say that an NBA player, playing a playoff game in an NBA arena should NOT have to deal with this? Kids, spouses and parents are all off limits. Is it funny? Maybe to you. I see ANYTHING that a fan does, or says, or depicts that gets personal in any way as crossing the line. Whatever Eva is, she is Mrs. Tony Parker. Just like my wife is Mrs. Clarence Black. Just like your mom, wife, girlfriend, sister is Ms or Mrs X.Y or Z. If I'm at the free throw line and you wanna distract me with something funny, that's cool. Have fun with me, and at my expense all you want. But if you bring my wife into it, you better also bring a stretcher. And if you dare bring my mother and, or children into it, you better damn well bring a coffin.
