I have about 700 words left in this Final, an annotated bibliography, another ~500 word paper, all due tomorrow morning. Not to mention the final I have to do on Blackboard by midnight.
I'll probably be up for the next 72 hours straight

Yeah, this is the worst stretch of the year without a doubt when it comes to school. Studying for exams can really drain the life out of you

I've taken two exams today and I've got another in less than an hour. Engineering school weed-out classes suck.

Lakers fall to the Cavs to fall to 9 - 13. Man, the panic is setting in now in Lakerland. How is that Coaching hire doing now Mr. Buss? Still think Phil was not the right man for the job?

a heads up - you can also subscribe to their podcast on iTunes or simply download the .mp3 version at http://blogs.thescore.com/tbj/
Perhaps it's more convenient for you.

i hate to jump to conclusions, so i wont. but man, i'd love to know how that went down.
and i have to assume that no bobcats players were there since they had a flight to atlanta immediately after the game. does this mean that tyrus was there? did he not travel with the team? or did his wife to to party w/out him?

John Hollinger leaving ESPN to join the Memphis Grizzlies front office. Has to do with statistics and analysis and other crap I dont understand. But Hollinger was one of the few ESPN voices for the NBA I liked.

Jamie Thomas faces multiple charges, including driving while impaired and two counts of assault with a deadly weapon.
Police say they were called to the night club after receiving multiple calls about a security car who had been struck by a vehicle, as well as a disturbance and robbery in the parking lot.
A woman told officers that her purse had been taken during an altercation, and that the suspect was in a nearby vehicle. Police said Jamie Thomas was the driver of that vehicle and that she tried to leave the scene and struck the security guard a second time.
Police said Thomas then disobeyed orders from officers to get out of the car. Officers then broke the driver side window of the car and opened the vehicle's door, police said in a news release. Police said a second vehicle in the car, who was identified as Stevenson, began pulling Thomas back into the car.
Officers then used force to get Thomas out of the vehicle and say she was injured during the struggle. She was treated at a local hospital before being taken to police headquarters, authorities said.
Stevenson and Smith were also charged with resisting a public officer. Police said Smith refused officers orders to get out of the vehicle. Smith is the fiance of Bobcats guard Ben Gordon, according to several internet websites.
