MY Los Angeles Lakers: 2009 NBA Champs



The Los Angeles Lakers are the 2009 NBA Champions! It was an amazing run & I can admit that there were games in this series & the last when I was almost too angry to watch games. I say that b/c the Lakers sometimes play like teams have to bow down to them & that's just not the case. Other teams are hungry for the championship & "we" can be so lazy & it shows on the floor. I was so aggravated with the guys during the Denver series that I didn't think "we" could do this. I was disappointed, feeling like "we" were DONE & then all of a sudden, MY Lakers showed up in game 5 against Denver & NOW, "we" are the champs! I'm proud of my guys & I'm so happy to be a Laker fan. I'm glad I don't give up on my guys! It's like an up-and-down marriage: your spouse promises to do better & get it together, to make it work AND does for awhile then something comes up & your spouse does something to let you down again. You stick with him b/c you know "there's good in him" & you love him so much & you know sooner or later he will be the man you fell in love with! That's me & the Laker team - love 'em but they let me down so much then there are times like these last few games & then again tonight that make it ALL SO WORTH IT! Tonight makes it all better - sweetest love making in 7 years! You've made me proud! Love you guys!

Shaq is officially the clown of the NBA!!!

I don't know if any of you guys watched NBA All Star Weekend this weekend, but it was great! I watched everything from Friday night's Rookie Challenge & Celeb game to Saturday night's Slam Dunk contest & tonight's All Star game! I loved it all but I must say that the best part of the entire weekend was Shaquille "Shaq Diesel" Oneal's dance when they called his name! I'm telling you I laughed the whole time I watched this on TNT tonight! Shaq is so huge & the mask was frickin' too small for his face - dude, hilarious - it looked like it would fall off at any minute LOL! Watch & be amazed (this video can be viewed in HD but it loads kinda' slow so pause it & let it load a little bit before actually attempting to watch AND it's best viewed in full screen so make it big so you can see Shaq act a fool!)! I love this guy, even though he left us high & dry - but we're doing great w/out him ha =)

BTW, you guys realize he went to LSU which is right here in my hometown right? He would always come back during the summer & take classes! I'd see him from time to time. He's a really nice person - always smiling & didn't mind holding a conversation with anybody. The last Laker game I went to in New Orleans, before Hurricane Katrina, was the last year (if I remember right) he was a Laker. I saw him pretty close up b/c our seats were courtside & he was smiling & waving then! Cool dude - ok, now the video lol!
