this just sucks.

this REALLY sucks.

-here are some thoughts:

*for the Stars, it's simple -- Tippet has to go. i like the guy, but it's been what, 4, 5 years? i just don't think the players are fully buying into his system. which is understandable when he's constantly changing lines, on a nightly basis. i really dont believe i've seen a single 'set' line for 15+ games in a row. he was a gret assistant in LA, and i believe he can still be......a great ASSISTANT.
-Doug Armstrong should go, too. It's just the nature of the beast...1st round loss after 1st round loss....you either get rid of players or management. the last few years it's been players....
-i really feel this team is on the brink of making it to the finals again. yes, i really do. i think we've got a great mix of young guns and vets, and our goalie situation has got to be in the top 10, if not top 5. it just needs to all gel together, which a new coach/system can do. i'm pretty interested to see what happens this offseason.

*the mavs...
....just wow. it makes me sick to my stomach to even think about it. seriously, the WORST thing to happen after last years Finals meltdown....JUST HAPPENED. have the BEST Mav's regular season ever, home-court throughout the playoffs, the front-runner for MVP.....and lose 4-2 in the 1st round. to the former coach. ugh.
-last year, blaming the refs and thinking David Stern was trying to create "the next Jordan" had some merit to it. sure, the Mavs buckled under the pressure, but, c'mon...
-but this year...nope. no blame-game. the mavs got served. hard. avery, the assistant coaches, the entire team had no answer at all. the Warriors were just oozing confidence. so what went wrong?
-Game 1. we needed to win it. we needed to lay it all out, and just destroy them. but, like most Game 1's....we fall short. Golden State just accomplished what everyone was expecting of them....to at least win 1 game. bonus points they won it on the road. from that point, the series is a free ride for the Warriors. 1st mistake.
-67 win regular season. 3 double digit winning streaks. home-court. nice, but with all this comes pressure. everyone has you as the Favorite, and for whatever reason, these Mavs don't perform well as the Favorite. let's go back last year: against the Spurs, underdog. against the Suns, about even. against the Heat, Favorite. at least next year, no matter how the regular season goes, no one, i mean NO ONE, will have the Mavs as the overall favorite to come out of the West. so we've got that going for us, which is nice.

as far as the team, they were just spooked. this is a good team, that just happened to go into the playoffs in a mild slump and face a team that went 13-3 to finish the season on a roll. the stuff i'm hearing is ridiculous. trade Dirk? you're insane. ship off Harris? so, you're ok with getting rid of our fastest, most promising starting PG? see what you could get for Howard? our 2nd best player? our best defender?

this team is solid. small changes are expected (umm, bye Kevin Willis), but hopefully our core of Dirk, Howard, Harris, Diop, Damp, JET, and Stack will be here next year. (the last two i could see being shopped around, if any)

so, i guess, GO SABRES! and
GO SPURS TO BEAT THE SUNS! GO JAZZ TO BEAT THE WARRIORS! GO JAZZ TO BEAT THE SPURS! GO CAVS/PISTONS TO BEAT THE JAZZ!

MFFL.

intensity.

Just. Awesome.
(especially the football one, i mean, who tries to tackle Jesus??)

speaking of football, wow, was i wrong. i didnt get a chance to watch the game, and very happy about that. oh well..another disappointing season...but hey, let's keep our focus right here! F the mavs (best record in nba) and stars (the nhl all-star game is in dallas....hello??). we need 24/7 coverage on if Parcells stays or not, does T.O. have a comment, is Tony still sad?? very very important. keep up the great work Dallas sports media!

Cowboys - 9-7 - @ Seattle, Sat. Jan. 6th, 7pm - NFC Wild-Card Game

- first, let me say that football coverage really beats me down. i enjoy watching the football GAME, i just don't get the need for 3 hours of pregame...AND postgame! add the actual game into the mix...that's over 9 hours of coverage, just for the regular season games. am i to expect "bonus" coverage for playoffs? not that i watch all this, but apparently a lot of people do. that's just beyond me (especially spending so much time covering a team that has not won...i'll type it again.....HAS NOT WON a playoff game in a decade). that just floors me. now,

- two 9-7 teams, and from what little i've heard, the majority see an easy Seahawk victory, cause the Cowboys are sinking....fast. just like they were at the beginning of the season, until, you remember, everyone believed they were the best team in the NFC, SuperBowl-Bound. now they're bad again, in case you haven't heard. they lost to the Lions, giving up 39pts to a 3-13 team. they lost their final three home games. this team is going to just hand the game to the Seahawks........right?

- i mean, Seattle's got a better record (wait....), they won their last couple home games (hmm, lost to both SanFran and San Diego, oops..) they have GOT to have a more dominating defense than the Cowboys, right?? (oohh, they give up 21.3pts/gm to Dallas' 21.9). ummm...OH! they're playing AT Seattle! SCOREBOARD!
(oh jeez...Dallas has a 5-3 season record on the road, and they are on a 3 road-game winning streak. Seattle has a 5-3 season record at home, and they are on a 2 home-game losing streak.) still a cakewalk for the 'Hawks?????

- what i'm trying to say is that i won't be surprised if the Cowboys win or lose. i'm actually glad the Lions won on Sunday...call me crazy but i think Dallas has a better shot winning at Seattle than at home against the Giants. that's right! being a loyal local sports fan for many years, i have come to the conclusion that when a Big Game comes around, if it's 'at home', the greater the chance for a Loss. it sucks, but its true. so, i'll take an "on-the-road" Big Game (plus, if its a loss, you can always say, "well, [insert other teams name] was at home, so....")

-prediction: Dallas wins. the defense will get at least 2 int's/fumble recov's. Witten's due a big game, this should be it. although, im basing this victory on Dallas not giving up on the running game by the 2nd Qtr, cause if that happens again, chances of a Cowboy win drop to 30%. but they wont make that mistake, again...right? right?
Final Score - Dallas 27, Seattle - 16

****quick update from Sports, Pt. 1. i thought the Mavs having a 10-6 record in Dec. would be great...wellll, since that post, they've decided to show strong-bones and capture their SECOND double-digit winning streak of the season. insane. 13-3 in Dec., without their '6th man' for most of that. Thank you, Little General****

The 2006 CD

2006-12-28T15:49:00.000-06:00

can't really do a 'Best of '06' list, don't even think i've listened to 10 albums that were released this past year. i liked the Beirut, Cat Power's was ok, umm...Midlake's had its moments. streamed Thom Yorke's and Bob Dylan's...decent, but didn't purchase either. can Daft Punk's Coachella performance count? (wait..it'd be my list, of course it counts!) that mix was so sick. that's right, my fav of '06 --- the two 45min mp3's i downloaded of Daft Punks Coachella set.
(#2, being an actual album, would be Built to Spill - You in Reverse)

- speaking of downloads, i have a list for you ( i wanted to supply links, but my account is on the fritz. but if you have Limewire, this should be a snap). though i have not listened to many albums this year, i have heard a good number of songs. so, i give to you my Songs of '06 CD:

1. Sparrow House - When I Am Gone
2. Peter Bjorn & John - Young Folks
3. TV on the Radio - Wolf Like Me
4. Midlake - Roscoe
5. Cold War Kids - Hospital Beds
6. Ratatat - Wildcat
7. Camera Obscura - Lloyd, I'm Ready To Be Heartbroken
8. Viva Voce - From The Devil Himself
9. The Knife - We Share Our Mother's Health (Ratatat Remix)
10. Thom Yorke - Harrowdown Hill
11. Love is All - Spinning And Scratching
12. DeVotchKa - Till The End Of Time
13. Rainer Maria - Clear And True
14. Okkervil River - The President Is Dead

2006-12-11T22:26:00.000-06:00

hi.

Mavericks - 14-6 (well, 14-7 now after losing to Jerry Sloans chance at 1000 win's, in Utah. OF COURSE the Jazz would win)

- this team is good. this team will make the playoffs. this team, right now, could easily lose in the first round. i know its early, but i'm seeing the Same, Stupid, Mistakes in every game...e.v.e.r.y. game = no effort at correcting SSM's. the one that's the most beating on me? down by 6 or more, in the 2nd half, big defensive block/steal/stop, chance at a 2 on 1, but noooo.. Mav bringing the ball downcourt stops and pops for a 3. instead of the instant 2 or free-throws. yeah, when the 3ball hits, its great. but when it doesnt, it's not just bad. it's real, real REAL SSM bad. harvey keitel in Point of No Return bad. which leads me to....

- enough with the 3's. remember, we're done with Nellie-ball around these parts. buckner, george, stack -- DEFENSive players, should not have anywhere NEAR 10 combined attempts at the 3ball in a single game. hell, diop almost took a 3pointer this season (to avoid a violation, but still). like tonight... 3-20 3PA. the only reason there should be that many attempts is if the other team is leaving dirk or jet WIDE open over and over again, and thats not happening.

- i thought this teams off-season player subtractions and additions kinda cancelled each other out, or at the very least made the Mav's a little better (no KVH = better team). i was wrong. if stack doesnt become more of a vocal leader on the floor, bench, huddle, practice, EVERYWHERE, this team will not make it deep in the playoffs. this team needs some vet to take control. (yeah, im missing DA. huge belated props to him for last year.) want a ring Stack? time to be head cheerleader.

-quick hit: not digging Mo Ager. maybe he just doesnt feel comfortable in his passing skills......but dude, quit hogging garbage time. worst idea for a drinking game: every time Ager passes the ball, take a drink.

-attention Mavericks--- when you are on the court, and you are not up by at least 30 points, DO NOT run a play intended for Diop. i dont care if its Avery's drawn up play....use common sense. Diop goes straight-up panic attack when he gets a pass, if he even 'gets' it at all. good blocker, ok rebounder, bad everything else. (ok, prolly good guy)

-so, anthony johnson and austin croshere can only contribute in a game if you bench them the game before? that's how this works? this is a deep team?

-again, 14-7, not bad, and still early. but if they're gonna win the division, they're gonna have to start pulling away from the Spurs by early Feb. yes, this team just had a 12game winning streak, they also had a 4game skid. this team could easily win or lose 5 in a row at any point......that's some no good big bad news, yo.

-predictions: six games into Dec., Mav's are 3-3. here's hoping they go 10-6 this month (prove me wrong! beat PHX for 11-5!) and start to roll. im gonna give this team too much credit cause im a homer and say they should finish the season at 55-27. i'll see if i can try to stick with that...

- go mammiks.
