Time for a comeback? Tony's probably not coming back, but the Spurs are at least playing D tonight.

Hagfish. The things are fucking disgusting and also interesting.
Hagfish are long, slender and pinkish, and are best known for the large quantities of sticky slime which they produce. Hagfish have three accessory hearts, no cerebrum or cerebellum, no jaws or stomach, and will “sneeze” when their nostrils clog with their own slime. They are found in cold ocean waters of both hemispheres, scavenging dead and dying fish but also preying on small invertebrates.
they have a partial cranium (skull), but no vertebrae, and so they are not truly vertebrates.
Hagfish are usually not eaten owing to their repugnant looks, as well as their viscosity and unpleasant habits. However, a particular species, the inshore hagfish, found in the Northwest Pacific,17 is valued as food in the Korean Peninsula.

This is a new feature I thought of the other day. At halftime of each game and at the end of the game, I will put a screenshot of the boxscore so we can see were we stand and maybe notice things we haven’t seen during the game. Or maybe this will go into the trashcan of bad ideas along with Crocs and disco.
If anyone has suggestions for better boxscores, then say it in the comments you idiot.

Lets not get ahead of ourselves. That was against the Kings. Everything we did against them looked good. Pop has already made one mistake by expecting anything productive out of Keith Bogans.
