Game 2, 4th Quarter: "Man Overboard"

“A monkey can throw pots in the water. You have to know what you are looking at.”


And so it begins, Capt Sig at the helm of the 4th quarter blog. Navigating the entire internets to safe dockage in Houston. The Peter Principle in living breathing color.

In pre-blogging warm-ups I stretched, loosenedd up my fingers by typing a quick essay on the numerous uses of socks, and read a chapter from Fisherman’s Weekly.

Checking the boards in Vegas, odds are 10-1 Mr. Softy returns in the game.

Masha crosses off another day in the "Leaving Utah Family Countdown Calender"

Amanda Harpring crosses off another day in the "AK Leaving Utah Countdown Calender"



The Jazz begin the 4th with Williams, GG, Memo, Harpringsucks and Mansap....and zero hope.

ANDREI IN!

WTF!

Steve Wynn commits suicide.

AK trying to stretch the defense.

Battier's head looks like a pack of hot dogs.

It appears that Capt Sig just experienced the shortest relevancy in blogger history. The game is now over. Lets play fill dead blog time:

Random Trivia: Jeff Van Gundy is in the Nazareth College Golden Flyer Athletic Hall of Fame:

(Hair optional)

KJZZ showing a WNBA commercial.............................too easy.

I just realized I am blogging in bullet statements.

It appears my blogging style is meeting some resistance on chat. Good chance the Northwestern has turned into the Exxon Valdez.

My mates are turning on me, I feel like Barney in that episode where Andy and he try to join the exclusive men's club in Raleigh. They let Andy in but not Barney.

I think Battier is leaking hot dog juice from his dome after that Boozer dunk attempt.

That might have been Boozer's first help defensive block attempt all year.

Good sequence there. A Frog Fisher turnover, followed by Frog getting tripped up on a lilly pad trying to fight through a screen, capped off by a harpringsucks WOOT.

BUCKLE UP

Serious comment: That is about the 3rd time that Okur has passed up a 3 to pass to Fisher. That is probably not a good sign.

It appeared that Battier upgraded to an Italian Sausage in that Williams assault.



Thank God a Commercial. Time for some social commentary. (Sig believes a well-rounded captain is a good captain).

Why do people with BMI’s larger than Jargon Collins’s jersey number insist on wearing fewer clothes than anybody else in the summer? Fat feet and sandals should trigger some Federal legislation.

Thurl keeping the vest alive as a fashion statement.

Booner: "You have to be a tough guy to play in this league". AK cues Robert John's "Sad Eyes" on his IPOD.

The stage is set for some Harpring trickery....err "bafoonery".

What would you say Ming Yao's head weighs?

Boozer silencing all critics. Amazing performance. The Capt tips his hat.

LOCKER CLEAN OUT CONTEST! I MUST ENTER TATERMOOG.

Boler: "Carlos with back to back double doubles"

Harp with an MLA and a mulligan.

Harp with an assist, securing the Subway Sub of the Game. Ak searches for Olivia Newton-John on his IPOD.

"Me Ming Yao, Me Shoot'em Good Free Throws"

AK just asked Hoffa if he would put in a good word for him in Toronto.

The record with Harp finishing games just notched another L. Rinse Lather Repeat.

Serious comment: McGrady is getting any look he wants and has now for two games. With Frog Fisher guarding him, I am reminded of a shooting drill where the ball boy closes out and pretends to play defense. I don’t when, but he is going to score 45 in a game before this series is over. Maybe two games.

Locker cleanout day projection: May 1

JOC shopping AK projected start date: May 2

I'm not sure why, but i like this sequence best...

"My mates are turning on me, I feel like Barney in that episode where Andy and he try to join the exclusive men's club in Raleigh. They let Andy in but not Barney.

I think Battier is leaking hot dog juice from his dome after that Boozer dunk attempt."

There is absolutely no transition here, but it works for some reason.

Have you ever seen the Marx Brother's film "Animal Crackers"? There is this scene where Groucho is having a conversation with two women. He stops in the middle and says, "Excuse me while I have a strange interlude."

That's basically this whole piece in a nutshell.

Nice work, fellas.
