The Jazz and the Pacers and other Ill-fated Projects...
While the rich get richer, i.e. the Celts and/or the Lakers, us poor have gotten poorer.
I grew up in Indiana. I still root for the Pacers.
I lived in Utah for five years. I liked the Jazz even before I moved there. I like them as much if not more now.
Alas.
At least the Pacers had there glory years and three championships in 7 years of the NBA.
The Jazz? Swiped by MJ.
You have seen the replays.
So as I do hope KG and Allen and Pierce get their first for themselves and 17th for Beantown, while Kobe stays on 3 and the Lakers at 14, I can't help but wonder if the Pacers of Granger and Dunleavy or the Jazz of Wiliams and Boozer might ever...
Wow.
One for the record books.
Don't complain San Antonio or Chicago. Even Houston and Detroit got two.
I like (am obsessed with) the big US sports of football, basketball and baseball. And I love how they expand globally. I am fascinated by World Cup soccer, Olympics and certain tennis matches.
Oh, yeah, and I will talk your ear off when it comes to religion, politics, right, wrong, demography, history and truth.
Blog on and blog it.
Uh, also I have a Foxsports blog called papaclinch'si t and that was the original, and this was created as a mistake and then a parallel world for more spiritual topics on occasion. More BYU here, more IU over there...
Make sense? I love both schools with an odd type of crazed loyalty... Hard to explain. Thus the blogging.
Keeps me out of trouble, maybe?
