Late Jazz Game = No Sleep

Thursday, May 8th, 2008 @ 11:03AM

Darn it all, we lost!

The last thing I need before I try to go to bed is a tense Jazz game.  OK.  It wasn’t all that intense as it was frustrating, but the result is the same.  I was way too wound up to go to sleep afterward.  You should know that in grade school and part of junior high I was on a youth league basketball team.  I played guard for the Hooper Hawks, and then later we became the Hooper Hornets.  My specialty was being shorter than everyone else and lacking any athletic talent whatsoever.  OK, I was extremely mediocre at defense, but too short and too much of a wussy to really cause any trouble.  Once I almost fouled out of a game, but that was it.  Therefore, I’m qualified to talk about basketball.  My observations are brief.  We have a good, talented team.  Boozer is awesome as is Korver.  Kirlenko is an amazing athlete.  I just hope we can put the smack down on the Lakers when they’re in town tomorrow night.  We might lost this series, but I hope to land a few good punches.  The Utah Jazz has the talent to beat these guys.  We just need to get it synced.

I was also extremely talented at sitting on the bench during my games.
