Lakers-Wiz Open Thread

These tip-offs just get earlier and earlier. They're starting to interfere with my soaps. Damn it, Lakers, don't make me choose between you and One Life to Live!

Sip on a delicious mid-afternoon cocktail upon any mention of:

• Obama,
• Guns,
• Earl Boykins's height,
• The ugliness of the Wizards' uniforms, or
• How Caron Butler used to be a Laker.

Ron Artest will play tonight, by the way. Guess he didn't want to get the president sick, but has no such misgivings about DeShawn Stevenson.
