"Living in Compton California CA

His Uzi up yo ass if he don't get paid..."

Sadly, fifteen years ago today Eric Lynn Wright, better known as rapper Eazy-E, passed away. I figured we had enough of the Tauntaun sleeping bag and instead could use some Eazy-E (and friends) prior to tonight's hoops action. Enjoy...but as you might recall, Mr. Wright and Co. use some "colorful" language, so try not to get fired listening to this.

  1. Dan, I felt this was the best episode of Lost I have ever seen...and I've seen all of four.

  2. I'm not much of a Mateen Cleaves fan either. Thanks though.

    Also, I realize that UK hasn't shot it well but the bigger problem with their 3 point shooting is that they've taken 25 3s.

  3. Dan - I was with you on Lost. I appreciated that several questions were answered, or partly answered, without raising an additional number of head-scratchers.

    And always nice to see Titus Welliver get some screen time. His character was, at least for me, never satisfactorily explored on Deadwood. That show had a lot left in the Tank when it ended.

  4. I much prefer his Smokey to "non-Locke but Locke" Smokey.

  5. Mateen Cleaves has a mouth like a Pez dispsenser. I'm disappointed that K-State lost because I enjoyed watching them more than anyone else this year (although I watched much less college BB than I wanted to this year). That said, it's impossible for me to root against Butler from here on out.

  6. first of many butler=hoosiers stories in today's washpo.

    ReplyDelete
  7. Butler is not Hoosiers. It's a stupid and lazy comparison. Go read Gregg Doyel's CBS Sportsline column from last week.

  8. In fact, George Mason was way more of a Hoosiers story than this Butler team. Mark aptly covered all the reasons why Butler is legit and should be taken seriously as a hoops power the other day.

  9. So, you people are watching this game yes?

    ReplyDelete
  10. Yes. I had to wash my cats first.

    ReplyDelete
  11. Washing cats? AHL. I feel like 'washing my cats' is a euphemism I could work in to my life.

    And yes Teej, I'm watching. Really good game matching two resourceful teams and two very skilled coaches.

    ReplyDelete
  12. yes, watching. another dandy. and i'd watch chess if raftery was courtside. or boardside.

  13. This tournament has been unreal.

  14. We deserve a 69-69 OT game...

  15. I don't have a problem with a foul there but Prince got a lot of the ball.

  16. Tough way to lose a ballgame...

  17. z-man - we, as in my wife, have two cats. we, as in she, never washes them though.

    ReplyDelete
  18. This is the time of year when they shed the most, if you don't wash them the whole apartment fills with hair. Washing two feral cats is no laughing matter.

    This game is no laughing matter either.

    ReplyDelete
  19. We, as in my lady, have a feral cat too. We, as in she, have never, ever washed the cat. I barely even acknowledge it's existence. I have no use for cats. Don't hate them, just can't be bothered by something that can't be bothered with me. I do wash both of my pits though. That too, is no laughing matter.

    ReplyDelete
  20. Pits meaning Pit Bulls. I figured I'd cut Teej off at the pass here.

    ReplyDelete
  21. can't ya at least get it to the freakin rim/backboard?

    ReplyDelete
  22. At this point, why would anyone ever not take Michigan State to at the least the Final Four when picking brackets? Their tourney success is unreal.

    ReplyDelete
  23. Les Moonves is praying Duke wins.

    ReplyDelete
  24. I believe I read it's six Final Fours in last 12 years for Izzo and the Spartans.

  25. My old building had a mouse problem so I got a feral cat from the pound. She's predictably effective at catching mice and surprisingly affectionate. So she brings me perforated half-dead mice. The new place has no mice so she just beats on the Z-woman's cat to get the excess aggression out of her system.

    ReplyDelete
  26. I agree Mark. The selection committee should never give MSU anything worse than a 3 seed.

    ReplyDelete
  27. I like that. The Izzo exception.

  28. The Lupe Loophole? The Lupehole?

  29. Acy's neckbeard is inspiring.

    ReplyDelete
  30. Early on, this game was really sloppy. Now it's just really entertaining.

    ReplyDelete
  31. because you guys care, you'll be glad to know that we just completed another successful neighborhood easter egg hunt. it's one of my favorite annual events, largely because it always means i wind up with lots of leftover beer. and because i truly enjoy the comedy of sharing it with the jewish families in our 'hood.

    i can't say 'go bears' emphatically enough.

    ReplyDelete
  32. that's a colossally dumb foul on lomers

    ReplyDelete
  33. It's a Final Four that will have CBS execs begging for a "Two and a Half Men" marathon.

  34. Is Singler more Navritalova? Or post-op transsexual?

    Orrrrr...Ziggy Stardust? Ground contro to Coach K...

  35. Somebody get Homer Drew better seats.

  36. I still think #12 has the AIDS.

    ReplyDelete
  37. i love the flight of the concords guy doing the hp commercials. i find him to be quite funny. and this another terrific ball game.

    ReplyDelete
  38. Me too, Dan. They don't get old for me.

    Nolan Smith is much better than I ever thought he'd be when I first saw him.

    ReplyDelete
  39. Lance Thomas has been a monster on the offensive glass in the 2nd half.

    ReplyDelete
  40. i think i'd take baylor in a fight

    ReplyDelete
  41. as much as this result disappoints me, this sets up a terrific final four narrative. you've got a villain in duke, a 'cinderella' in butler, a redemption story in huggy bear, and a wounded power in michigan state.

  42. in the event you were unaware, 60 minutes is doing a piece on the new nets owner tonight

    ReplyDelete
  43. Yep, that's the internet for ya: http://bubleraptor.tumblr.com/

    ReplyDelete
  44. you guys see the 60-minute piece last night? pretty good stuff i must say - a benefactor of good timing is he. he's hard not to like.

    ReplyDelete
  45. I enjoyed the fact that he keeps his VIP suite in the Moscow club stacked with 20 barely legal babes who are pretty easy on the eyes.

    ReplyDelete
  46. i thought it kind of funny that he didn't know where his mega-yacht was currently docked. although i do lose track of mine on occasion as well.
