The NBA
It's pretty tough to come by "Basquet" games here so, with the start of the playoffs, I've found my way to Chubbs American bar about 3 times in the last 8 days to watch all the hoops I can possibly digest. Also, the waitresses are attractive reformed prostitutes (just worth mentioning).
Here are my observations of the NBA as I understand it after watching about 10 games. Feel free to weigh in with some of your own.
* I am better at basketball than Jermaine O'Neal. Dude is a corpse.
* LeBron is the only person to know how to refer to himself in the 4th person.
* Josh Smith is the only player in NBA history to jam his neck on the JumboTron (which was supplied by Brady Haaaasss).
* The Thunder are fun. They're not good. But they're fun.
* Derrick Rose may not have really graduated high school, but damnit, if he had someone to pass to that wasn't a sub-par veteran (Luol Deng is not good Lubahn) then maybe Chicago wouldn't be an 8-seed that really "challenged" the 1-seed every year.
* It appears the mandatory route to true NBA success is to create a team with at least 3 current or past all-stars. If you do not meet this requisite, you are not a real contender.
Boston: Pierce, Garnett, Allen, Wallace, Rondo and even Moses Finley
Cleveland: Shaq, Jamison, LeBrenda
Lakers: Do I really need to list them?
Mavs: See above
SA: Big 3 + Jefferson
Magic: Carter, Lewis, Dwight
Phx (contender?): Nads, Amare, Richardson
(I don't consider Utah or Denver contenders. That may not be fair)
* Chris Anderson's Dad is Puck from the Real World
As for the main series we all care about:
* Tony Parker is great. Blessed be the franchise that discovered him.
* Dirk Nowitzki is fantastic. Blessed be the franch...yeah, yeah, you get it.
* It is fun to watch two teams beat the shit out of each other
* Eddie Najera learned a lot from the Thuggets. Maybe too much.
* Annual playoff complaining about referees makes me nauseas (spelling nauseas is awkward)

- Bear- Beating me in tennis, building something at his house he is being really mysterious about.
- Weiss- Getting his email hacked and sending me quasi aggressive text messages.
- Chambers- Has a baby and a stressful job. Wants to hang out but I have been a flake.
- Mazur- Left his good job for a better job. Good job is still paying him. Having a girl.
- Williams- In excellent relationship with native girl. Wrote a book. Still poor.
- Lubahn- Moved to Apple Valley, Minnesota. Jack is overjoyed about having a basement.
- Miller- Working hard at TCU. Watches a lot of internet videos. Has a sweet beard.
- Portillo- I will be seeing him this summer. Thank God b/c I have no idea what he's been up to.
- Brown- In Austin. I think.
I am doing well. Working a good amount. I like my big black dog. Piper and I ride bikes to bars and ride back drunk. That's pretty fun.
I look forward to seeing all of you again.

KFC's Double Down: bacon and cheese sandwiched between two pieces of fried chicken
I will reimburse anyone here who eats one if they take a picture of themselves and the sandwich and post it here as proof.
To Learn more about this fantastic piece of American self-mutilation you can read about it on the Fort Worth Weekly- which I didn't know existed.
