zomg... what if luke became the next player/coach..
remember at the end of the season he basically was an assistant coach, clipboard and all
hmmm. maybe just coach.
well, he can be an assistant to Shaw when he finally take the reigns

Adam Morrison has more rings than Lebron, Bosh, and Wade combined?

Weird
It’s strange that a site like bodog.com can be so off-base on it’s predictions for the upcoming seaon.
I myself have the Lakers as favorites. (The actual formula doesn’t matter, it’s something like P-5203958203598029358029358 + infinity/Ammo’s stache in millimeters+frat parties Luke attends ^ times Delonte West says, “sup girl” to Ray Allen’s mom+37*24 with a regression to take in Pau’s impact on the Jordache jean stocks).
If I had a fancy website I’d post that too, but I’ve only got this blog, and AmmoArmy.com. I chose this blog.
For me its the consistent inconsistency that concerns me - PAGFL

you canot divide by Ammo's stache
its an infinitely large number and it goes against everything established in math … its like dividing by 0 …

Strange write up on the anti-blog
There is an entry giving themselves a pat on the back for such a great offseason, which while this may be narcistic, isn’t too unusual.
The strange part of the entry is how there seems to be complete denial:
Rather than spending the first few weeks of the offseason basking in the glory of his team’s second championship in the last three years, Danny Ainge probably spent them contemplating the immediate future of his ball club
Did I miss something? Was that just a dream I had of the LA Lakers winning a back to back double rainbow?
and somehow
In the rear view mirror stood the Los Angeles Lakers
Unless the c train spun out and is now facing the wrong direction, you don’t use the rearview mirror to look at who blew past you. Its the the backside of the LA Lakers you are looking at.
Danny Ainge Does it Again
http://www.celticsblog.com/2010/9/3/1664434/danny-ainge-does-it-again#storyjump
Bizzare very strange, one of us may need a trip to the psyche-ward.
P.S. Here’s your future:
Context
“In the rear view mirror stood the Los Angeles Lakers, holding the championship hardware we were so close to obtaining for ourselves”
Pretty much of a stretch holding that against them

still doesn't explain this...

3 Heat can't stop the 3peat.
True
Since (Danny Ainge) obviously COULDN’T, due to reality – that was poor writing on Greg’s part

Dear DJ
Please go to Cleveland not in Denver. Thanks.
Don’t you love the chase? Sometimes it doesn’t work out; those are the stakes. But when it does work out, it’s like having that first cigarette: your head gets all dizzy, your heart pounds, your knees go weak. Remember that?
Follow me on Twitter and I'll follow you too. LOL.

if he goes to Denver
it is mandatory for him to get a shitload of tattoos. rules are rules.

Come on, DJ's a good guy
I wish him luck, prosperity, and many blocks on Lebron, Dwayde, and Bosh.

maybe,
but if they can’t go bowling, what’s the frickin’ point?
Bowling is what it’s all about in college football, after all. There is no Final Four or something similar. They play their asses off in order to try and become bowl eligible, and for one of the most prestigious, most coveted bowls, at that — Rose Bowl, etc, etc. Sorry, but with no bowl, what’s the best they can hope for this year? A decent record so they can be ranked high next year?
Oh, and for the record, I’m not actually a USC fan, but I imagine that they aren’t all that pleased with Reggie Bush right about now??
reply fail?

this one cracked me up so much hilarious!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"That means no more coming into camp fat and out of shape, when your team is relying on your leadership on and off the court. It also means no more blaming others for our team's failure, or blaming staff members for not overdramatizing your injuries so that you avoid blame for your lack of conditioning.
