I was in the doghouse all weekend since we had planned a weekend getaway (I was originally banking on Pacers making it a long series). Luckily we are just shortening the trip, but she kind of knew Bucks would take priority.

I didn't schedule any vacation time this year until late June just in case. My girlfriend isn't much of a sports fan but she's cool with it


As of 2 years ago we have a vacation blackout period from late April thru end of June.

Boston has been very willing to go small and play someone like Hayward or Tatum on Lopez with Horford on Giannis. They can't let them get away with that in this series.

Nice - two Sunday battles of good versus evil.

Hoping that the officiating is called down the middle made me think back to the 2001 ECF. I am still in disbelief that in a 7 game series that went the full 7 games, Dikembe Mutombo, a shot blocker, committed a grand total of 5 personal fouls in the entire series. Went back to look at the box scores and he avg'd about 45 minutes per game. Also, he attempted 19 free throws in game 7. I'm not expecting a favorable whistle but at least the NBA isn't as corrupt as it was back in 2001, I think.

We also have star power on our side. Compared to AI, no one gives a **** about Ray Allen or Big Dog.

Super early NBA games can eat a dick. Anyone who disagrees can also eat one.

Boston forcing Giannis to actually depend his opponent would be less than ideal for us. Hopefully Stevens thinks Ojeleye is an answer for them in defending Giannis.

Jesus, 4am.

That said I'll actually be able to watch some of it whereas a lunch time game doesn't tend to go so well with actual work.

Interesting to get only 1 weekend game. Game 7 on a Monday?
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

Looks like if I'm going to a game it's gonna have to wait until the 3rd round.

Yeah, this schedule is trash. Meanwhile they get two Friday night games when their crowd will be all liquored up.

Also we often suck on Sunday afternoons. I hope we break out of that funk.

First Thanksgiving after getting married at the in-laws was the Packers at Dallas national TV game.

I heard Jason Garrett lit the Packers up that afternoon. I wouldn’t know however since we weren’t allowed to turn the TV on.
