-I'm back! ...props to Air Canada, for providing a wide variety of movies and television shows during my 13 hour flight.-In case you missed it, Chris Bosh as a correspondent at the NBA Finals on Leno.
-I'll give you $100.00 if you can name a colour commentator in the NBA, who is worse at his job than the Knicks' Walt "Clyde" Frazier.
-The Rainbow Butt Monkeys, or better known as Finger Eleven - made history, as their "hit single" Paralyzer became the most downloaded song by a Canadian Band, ever (according to a Toronto radio station). I for one, remain skeptical on the validity of this fact. I mean, the song isn't even that good, and this coming from a very open-minded fan of music.
-The Leafs have given long-time Ontario rival, the Montreal Canadians, one week to snatch aging future hall-of-famer and Leaf captain, Mats Sundin.
-"With the 17th pick in the 2008 NBA Draft, the Toronto Raptors select, Chris Douglas Roberts from the University of Memphis." Make it happen, Bryan Colangelo.
-with Portugal and the Netherlands out of the Euro '08, it's now Spain's turn to keep the choke streak alive. If they're anything like Spanish NBA players, the Italians should start celebrating right now. Sorry my Spaniard readers - I couldn't resist.
-The Yankees have drafted a "switch-pitcher", and apparently he can switch which arm he throws with between batters, legally and most likely, lethally.
-Tiger Woods does it again - this time through an injury. He's clutch and undeniably, the G.O.A.T in the sport of golf.
-Well, the 07/08 Boston Celtics lived up to the hype. They dominated the Lakers, going up 2-0 and never looking back. They kept up the swagger and killer team defense throughout the season and post-season.
-Paul Pierce played like a man possessed, outplaying Kobe Bryant throughout the Finals. To think, the Raptors could've had a player with that much loyalty, heart and desire to win. Instead, they took home the half-man, half-effort; Vince Carter.
-Is there a reasonable explanation for why Maria Carey's new album is titled E=MC². Side note, the song Touch My Body will go down as one of the most annoying songs of '08.
-Is Derek Jeter overrated? His peers seem to think so.
-Thus, the John Gibbons era ends. Cito Gaston will take over as manager. Tagging along for the sure-to-be, roller-coaster ending are Dwayne Murphy, Nick Leyva and Gene Tenace. All coaches from the Blue Jays 1992 and 1993 World Series Title era. How nostalgic - particularly so, on Flashback Friday's.
--Lamar Odom at guard? Just can't see how that would work, even in Phil Jackson's Triangle Offense. It would just cause too many mismatches on the defensive end.
-Looks like Chris Bosh could be playing a lot in crunch time at the Olympics, due to Dwight Howard's free throw difficulties.
-Here's praying that Roy Halladay is okay, after that nasty looking bullet of a shot he took in last nights game against the Pirates.
