The NBA season begins tonight...

and barring a miracle last-minute post from Mark I was concerned we wouldn't have a proper forum for the usual G:TB-related nonsense...so, in that vein, let the season begin with this hastily chosen clip:

Hmmm...no.

Geoff said...

If you have a moment, read any of the press accounts of Randy Quaid's recent arrest. He might be the craziest man alive.

No NBA post from me. Though I have been posting some of my thoughts on the NBA season via the twitter machine.

Dave said...

that mosh picture is like the pictures in harry potter. except for the moshing.

Jerry said...

Tonight's game will be the most hyperbolic sporting event of all-time.

TR said...

Wanted to let everybody know I caved and bought into the '09-10 Knicks. They have a few actual players they like, instead of a rotating crew of salaries they added/dropped every few weeks. Me thinks will be juuuust good enough to sneak into the playoffs. And I'm already developing a man crush on Landry Fields.

TR said...

And to Geoff 's comment on crazy actors, I loved the report about Charlie Sheen's recent "episode," where he trashed a hotel room. His agent blamed it on an allergic reaction. I guess he's allergic to sobriety. If he keeps this up, John Cryer will be "Hiding Out" all over again.

Thanks. I'll be here all week.

hannah storm...love the boots

Danimal said...

i'll have what randy quaid is having, but a much smaller dose. the best golfer in hollywood too. now you know.

heard the sheen story - charlie being charlie.

Danimal said...

anyone see the show, "billy the exterminator" on a&e? i think geoff should put it on the tv show review list, despite it not being new (at least i don't think it is)

rob said...

quite a juggernaut, these heat

T.J. said...

Enjoying this early Celts whooping of Heat...

TR said...

Crowd booed the hell out of Bron Bron in the intro. The question is if any city besides Miami won't boo him vigorously.

Geoff said...

Danimal...you'd take Randy Quaid over Jack Wagner? Or were you limiting it to people who have appeared in stuff that gainfully employed folks watch?

Danimal said...

that guitar solo is fucking SOLID.

geoff-wagner obviously very good and he knows it. FIGJAM probably started with him. both quaids very good...i guess it depends on who's telling the stories.

TR said...

It's scary how much Ray Allen and his mom look alike.

Shlara said...

Jeannie Buss looks like Stifler's mom from American Pie

TR said...

Artest standing next to Stern with a mic in his hand. I think Commish David is a wee bit nervous.

And Jeannie Buss is still hanging in there, although I bet she had to spend $500 to make her hair look like that.

Danimal said...

so based on my calculations, there are 200+ asst coaches in the nba

Shlara said...

I really don't like the Lakers, but I'm enjoying this ceremony.

TR said...

I agree Shlara. The players are doing a great job. Stern is looking happy. And Jeannie is happy she didn't have to kiss Pau Gasol.

I do feel bad for the one Laker assistant who got skipped. He's got to be bitter the equipment manager got a shout-out, but he didn't.

i'm actually in houston right now. i thought the game was here.
