Eh... two teams I frankly can't stand.
And there's baseball on.
At least I can take solace in knowing that Philly didn't win the Stanley Cup. There are no more insufferable fans than Philly fans.

Garnett from 18ft....look out if he gets that shot goin

Ray Allen is missing a lot. Missed two 3-pointers so far and several field goals.

Ray Allen cost the Celtics the last game...even 3 or 4 buckets would have made the difference....he's an All Star shooting guard and he must get his game back
28 | Political Atheist Thu, Jun 10, 2010 6:20:52pm |
Charles, did you want to embed a scoreboard again? That was pretty darn cool.

embed the entire game, right next to post column...I'll bet if it can be done, it will happen here
31 | albusteve Thu, Jun 10, 2010 6:24:31pm |
Celtics are shooting poor again...it will catch up with them
32 | Charles Johnson Thu, Jun 10, 2010 6:25:11pm |
Scorecard is now posted above, but you'll have to reload to see it.
33 | Irenicum Thu, Jun 10, 2010 6:25:14pm |
At least Pierce has his game going on. But that's not gonna be enough.
34 | Charles Johnson Thu, Jun 10, 2010 6:27:21pm |
What happened to Ray Allen? A record for 3-pointers, now can't hit nothin'? What's up with that?
35 | albusteve Thu, Jun 10, 2010 6:27:29pm |
re: #33 Irenicum

Celtic forwards need to get low and test the Lakers in the paint...shoot close and draw fouls...a few minutes ago they tried and got no point or fouls....try again

How many replays did they have the other night right at the end? And almost every call was overturned.

It's already a classic showdown, though not one I'm following closely.

go down low Boston....that's where the rubber hits the road
60 | cliffster Thu, Jun 10, 2010 6:37:06pm |
I bet if they hooked up a battery to the refs' whistles and it shocked them every time they blew it, there would be fewer stupid-ass fouls called
62 | Kragar Thu, Jun 10, 2010 6:37:47pm |
I think you should all know by now what this game really needs.
64 | albusteve Thu, Jun 10, 2010 6:38:25pm |
go down...into the paint, flex some muscle Kevin

you must contest the shot...every shot...it takes energy
75 | Charles Johnson Thu, Jun 10, 2010 6:42:21pm |
And Lakers are missing easy defenses. This is why it's a great game.

This video appears to have been taken by the second stringers -- the ones who weren't crazy enough to jump out and attack the soldiers, but stayed on the next deck down with their cameras to exploit the propaganda moment.

Charles
the greatest basketball battle in many a year
????
These same two teams played two years ago, and it could be argued that both were better then
The Celtics were younger
The Laker's had a better bench
Don't get me wrong. I love the rivalry. But so far through 3 1/2 games it's been pretty sloppy

OK, I watched the vid Killgore posted. It turned my stomach to see an American going along with those Islamists. Kevin Niesh should be charged with providing material support to terrorists based on that vid. I'd say his performance is worth 10 years in federal prison.

I'm hopeful something "clicks" and soon (like ,, THIS half)
After the last game, I figured the C's would come out smoking this game,, so far , nuh uh
After the last game, I predicted C's in 7. I'll stay with that because I'm hopeful the Cs pull it out tonight,

Greatest athletes in the world: the Kenyans who dominate marathons year after year. Running a sub-5 minute mile? For 26.2 miles?? That takes the cake. Anyone playing in the NBA/NFL/MLB etc, is an amazing athlete, and the basketball players are far and away the most amazing, but c'mon - 26 miles?

Naw, i'm with Hoopster, despite my tennis fetish.
Greatest athletes = greatest combination of (strength + coordination + athleticism + endurance).

"Muslims are calling for the executions of homosexuals in America," Dean said. "This just shows you they themselves are upholding the laws that are even in the Bible of the Judeo-Christian God, but they seem to be more moral than even the American Christians do, because these people are livid about enforcing their laws. They know homosexuality is an abomination."
[Link: www.change.org...]
So uhh, Muslims are better than Christians because they actually, you know, kill gay people? Minnesota is one fucked up state, but we already knew that after they re-elected Michele Bachman didn't we...

Chaos at Arlington Cemetery: Mismarked graves, dumping of urns
Army investigators at Arlington National Cemetery have found more than 100 unmarked graves, scores of grave sites with headstones that are not recorded on cemetery maps, and at least four burial urns that had been unearthed and dumped in an area where excess grave dirt is kept.
The investigators found that these and other blunders were the result of a "dysfunctional" and chaotic management system at the cemetery, which was poisoned by bitterness among top supervisors and hobbled by antiquated record-keeping.

BTW, the Aussies just launched a chartered Airbus jet to look for the 16 yr old girl who is adrift in the Indian Ocean on a potentially swamped sailboat. Those of you who that hold to a religious belief, do what ya do. I just hope she has the equipment and the training to use it. Time is a factor. Let us hope it's on her side.

Heads must roll for this. The people who failed must identified publicly fired.
Yeah, because in America, any mistake must be punished and someone has got to be sued.
What about just fixing the mistake and issuing a reprimand?
No; heads must roll.

This wasn't some kind of "act of God" or an unforseen event. Its what happens when an organization doesn't give a shit. Yes, people need to be held accountable when they their laziness, ignorance, and utter disregard for following the rules cause a f-up of this magnitude.
A "reprimand"? Are you serious?

Thank you. The fact that white people aren't having kids worries me, but I'm not some racialist. America will adapt. The people making up the nation will look somewhat different, but demographic changes such as these don't pose any threat to anyone.
White people are having kids, but so is everyone else. And bi-racial kids usually aren't classified as white.
Also, immigration is overwhelmingly non-white.

Pie score: 6 out of 10
I was so determined not to have a runny filling that I went too far in the opposite direction, and got a pecan toffee pie. Much too hard. Crust was good, though. I gave myself 5 points for the crust and 1 point for the filling.

Anyone else try to install the Java update and have it eff-up their computer yet? I had to restore to a four day old version of back-up to clean it out.
Turns out it was my ATI/AMD drivers for my HD series graphics card that is causing the trouble. I updated those and then tried the Java update again only to be told that it needed to change my internet preferences to install itself at which point I decided it could go F itself and quit the installation.
Here I have been badmouthing Apple for not including Java support in the Ipad for the last month too, maybe they were just onto something I hadn't seen yet?

Is she going for a youngest-ever solo circumnavigation record? 'Cause when I was 16, my parents wouldn't let me out alone past 10 pm. (I could go to the lake without another person, but only if I took a large dog).

Thanks. I just feel that this story is being ignored.
Granted that young women of this age were at the forefront of settling this Nation, indeed I suppose they were the true Mothers of this Nation. But have we become so blasé that when a young adults life is in peril we blithely ignore it, or at worst claim her parents came from the shallow end of the gene pool?

Agreed
I believe in encouraging the young. That means letting them out enough to take a risk. Sometimes that costs. For some the risk is stress or academic failure. For a few, it is breaking records and pushing boundaries.

Thanks for the reply. But have you looked at the ages of the people who actually migrated west? Husbands were 20-25 yrs and wives were 15-18 yrs. We have coddled our youth and as a result, crippled ourselves as a Nation.

Too late for that. Besides, just my analysis on the game. Not a good game by any stretch. It was sloppy. It was not like the last game with horrible offense. This was at least caused by better defense. These have been a painstaking Finals to watch, despite the series. First three games might have been some of the worst ever.
