Cav's butthurt over James' decision to flee Cleveland

Lebron James' announcement to switch to the Miami Heat has everyone who gives a flip about basketball (is it?) in a huge tizzy. Cincinnati is upset while in Miami there were reports of rioting, looting and dancing in the streets- just another normal day in Miami until they heard about the James decision.

The full range of emotions can be found on Yahoo! Sports, the pinnacle of in-depth decisive sports reporting. The main story revolves around the owner of the Cavs, Dan Gilbert, in this riveting headline:  'Cleveland fans don't deserve this cowardly betrayal'. 

Evidently, Dan was so pissed at the decision that he decided to write an open Internet letter to the fans of the Cavs. It is derogation at its finest and really makes Gilbert look like a whiny ass.

Thank you Lebron, Gilbert, Cincinnati, Miami and the 5110+ losers who flooded the Yahoo comments section about this story for again solidifying the fact that professional sports obsession is indeed unhealthy.

It's just a game.

***UPDATE***
It just keeps getting better. Sports writers covering a story like this should move on and write for soap operas.
Easy come, easy go for King James

    They're trying to get people who are uninterested in round-ball also wound up in in a tizzy - screw that.
    Gilbert - of Gilbert & Sullivan indeed.

Commanding Officer sacked

It seems that men in high places still haven't learned to keep their dorks zipped up. Capt. Scott Bawden, Commodore of Submarine Squadron 17 in Bangor, WA, was relieved of commnad after having "lost the confidence" of his boss. If you follow submarine news you will remember that Bawden was the Commodore who axed some of the crew of the USS Columbia after a hazing incident. /hat tip The Stupid Shall be Punished What comes around goes around? It has been quoted by a Chief who knew Bawden that morale will probably get better now that Bawden has been shitcanned. Sounds like a few Commodores I know. But there is more to this story than a guy who perhaps can't do his job anymore. Bawden was busted sleeping with someone elses wife, a Chief's wife, no less, IN HIS OWN command. Will the top brass save a onetime fair-haired boy's career, or will he end up "walking the plank?" What a jackass. It's bad enough that the Officers screw the enlisted, but ...

wtf, over....

Bernie Mac died at age 50 the other day, Isaac Hayes died today at 65. I guess show business can be rough. Only the good die young. - Billy Joel I didn't listen to Bernie Mac's stand up except for maybe a few minutes as I was channel surfing. He was playing in Vegas a few weeks ago when I went for the weekend with my wife. I have posted about Isaac Hayes when he decided to leave South Park after the creators dogged the stupidity that is Scientology. Hayes didn't seem to have a problem when Matt Stone and Trey Parker made fun of all the other world religions. I didn't read the story about Hayes but I can only guess he didn't die by falling off a suspended bridge while on fire, only to fall off and become impaled on a pointy rock, and then mauled apart by a hungry bear and mountain lion- then ending in a violent release of his bowels. Cosmically ironic if it did though. On top of these weekend deaths, visitors to the 2008 Olympics in Beijing have been murdered. The fa...

Superstitions

I have been entertaining my parents who flew in from the mainland and I have been extremely busy playing tour guide. I took them to the Big Island for a day trip in hopes to see the lava flow I photographed in July. Note to self: Check with the Volcanoes National Park website to find out if the lava is flowing at the last place you saw it 3 months earlier. That would have saved us a trip to the trail. Madam Pele (the Hawaiian goddess of fire) is very unpredictable. Since I arrived on this island 13 years ago I have heard of superstitions that range from believable (if I had enough shots of Jack Daniels) to downright stupid. AAMOF, at dinner with my parents the day before we left for the Big Island a waitress cautioned my mother against taking some of the sand from Black Sand Beach home with her. The bad luck that would accompany my mother sounded more like factual consequence than a “step-on-a-crack-break-your-mother’s-back” nursery rhyme. I rolled my eyes. In fact, at Volcanoe...
