Not enough against this offense. Coulda shoulda ended it here but Suns got to play their style of game with their 26 fast break points. Amare had a big game and the Suns refused to go out in a sweep like a biaatch!<BR/><BR/>DiscoAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10242068.post-1117498644961838142005-05-30T19:17:00.000-05:002005-05-30T19:17:00.000-05:00The rainout paid off.

So now we're tied for first and about to play six games against the Tigers and Royals while the Angels play the White Sox and Red Sox.Observerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07795013871642811728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10242068.post-1117473024073489852005-05-30T12:10:00.000-05:002005-05-30T12:10:00.000-05:00My poor Nashty.

Defense wins Championships. <BR/><BR/>IRL needs Danica Patrick like stories desperately. Nascar is kicking their ass in ratings and popularity. <BR/>Key factors in winning races is <BR/>1. Having a faster car<BR/>2. Skills of the driver<BR/>3. Having a good crew and chief.<BR/>Down the list some is weight differential of drivers. <BR/>Robby Gordon and other IRL drivers should worry about being over 200 lbs against a slim 100 lbs Danica if raced against her. Her and her car weigh 6% less than his car (about 1500 lbs) and himself would. That's a lot over 500 miles in terms of speed and gas mileage. <BR/>Here's a solution for him and any other drivers like Robby. <BR/>Grow some balls and stop whining and lose some weight, LARD ASS!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10242068.post-1117469885050637292005-05-30T11:18:00.000-05:002005-05-30T11:18:00.000-05:00Bob,Of course Danica Patrick's 4th place was cover...Bob,<BR/><BR/>Of course Danica Patrick's 4th place was covered more than normal... it was a friggin' first! She came in, led the Indy for, what, 18 laps? Then she came in fourth, the best finish by a woman... yeah... it was a much more important story than the win by Johnny Englishman... <BR/><BR/>And, if a man had been leading in the last 10 laps, like she was, and was leading because he took a gamble on gas, like she did, then you can bet your ass that the fourth place finish would have been covered at the end of the race. Maybe not as much as Danica's, but it would have been covered.<BR/><BR/>That was the most important sports story of the day.Dylanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16885873397614175129noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10242068.post-1117467027429500852005-05-30T10:30:00.000-05:002005-05-30T10:30:00.000-05:00I recommend Kevin Drum on Robby Gordon, who had th...I recommend <A HREF="http://www.washingtonmonthly.com/archives/individual/2005_05/006389.php" REL="nofollow">Kevin Drum</A> on Robby Gordon, who had the nerve to complain about Danica's supposedly unfair competitive advantage being a woman in the race.Observerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07795013871642811728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10242068.post-1117463582896372492005-05-30T09:33:00.000-05:002005-05-30T09:33:00.000-05:00Red Flag?By the way Bob, I have a question. Why wa...Red Flag?<BR/><BR/>By the way Bob, I have a question. Why was the red flag thrown with 8 laps to go? There should have been a yellow flag thrown, but it's my opinion they wanted to STOP the race completely to give Jimmie Johnson the most chance to pass Bobby LaBonte for a win. As you know, at the time of the Joe Nemecheck wreck, there were 8 laps left. They had thrown a record number of yellow caution flags all night. But because of the chance of Jimmie Johnson winning (he had newer tires than LaBobte,) Nascar had to stop the race instead of clicking off laps under caution, to make sure JJ had as many laps as possible to try an win the race for the bribery king Rick Hendrick.<BR/><BR/>I guess they have to let Hendricks teams win EVERY race. I am wondering about the entire future of Nascar. By the way Bob, the track IS LOEW'S Motor Speedway. The Loews car won the Busch Race, and they had to have the LOEWS car win the Cup race. Hendrick is such a crook.<BR/><BR/>LewAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10242068.post-1117462605887143492005-05-30T09:16:00.000-05:002005-05-30T09:16:00.000-05:00I am so happy in my pants this morning.Today the R...I am so happy in my pants this morning.<BR/><BR/>Today the Rangers have won 8 in a row and are on their way to 1st place.

There was absolutely no reason whatsoever to wreck Michael Waltrip, his own team mate for crying out loud!<BR/><BR/>After the wreck, Mikey even was clueless as to what Jr. was trying to do and accomplish. Everyone knows you don't bump draft in a corner.<BR/><BR/>I have no idea what the major malfunction is with DEI, I have no idea why the big shakeup with the pit crew chiefs, I just have no idea at all what's going on. It's frustrating.<BR/><BR/>I feel bound in some way to be a sincere, true fan of the 8 team. But today, all I can say is after what I saw last night, it's difficult.<BR/><BR/>LewAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
