    Can I ask – is there another team as cursed as the Los Angeles Clippers?

    If I am a #1 pick or first round pick for the Clippers – do I sign and play with the Clippers? Or do I take my chances with sub-zero temperatures and Russian mafia and sign to play in the Siberian Basketball League?

    I don’t know if a league exists in Siberia, but I would have to consider playing somewhere far, far away from Clippers if I am picked by them.

    Blake Griffin is out with a broken knee cap. Shaun Livingston never lived up to the hype and is now with Oklahoma. Eric Gordon looks promising, but when does the curse hit?

    Smitty,

    I cringed when I read of Griffin’s injury. Simmons eerily predicted it.

    Hey Werth!

    Here’s an idea. Next time, try diving. I’m sure Rollins will cover your laundry bill.

    Will no one mention that cesspool of grease that sits atop mount Utley? Better keep that head away from an open flame.

    Day 3 of our San Antonio odyssey. The town is buzzing about the game … tons of ND and Coug fans along the Riverwalk and other sites. Spurs game Wed night vs Hornets was fun. Great new arena … wonderful sight lines …. terrific energy …. and Eva! :) Performed another bait and switch with the seats … worked like a charm. Good thing one of the ushers was snoozing.

    Thursday, had a Hurricane or two at Pat O’Brien’s and only one beer at Coyote Ugly … the wives were pushing us out of there … dang it!

    Off to see more sites …. pep rally by the Alamo tonight. Out.

    Well, Pedro’s always been a jheri curl guy, so it’s not surprising. Utley looks like he invested in a tub of crisco and went nuts with it. I guess that’s what Philly chicks like.

    It goes well with the steak.
