Mon.12.14.09 Loser Thread
Good evening friends. Our Spurs are riding 3 straight victories. We have seven games around the league tonight, inluding 3 teams in the Southwest division playing. Tonight's schedule is as follows:
New Orleans at Dallas - NBA TV
I know you all will be broken up that I didn't include the snazzy logos. As always, we have a poll. Who do YOU want to lose most?

True. Hatred for the Mavs runs deep. I did vote for Boston this time, though.

Fuck it, CP3, at least give Dallas a good fight. Don’t just rollover and die.

Yes, but read the guidelines. There are some very well-defined rules as to what you can’t say.

Yes, I clicked, but it linked to a fake “FaceSpace” page – unless that’s what you wanted me to see.

Melo hits a 3. Durant hits a 2. Melo misses a 3, Durant rebounds.
I predict Melo wins the scoring battle, but OKC has a more balanced attack.

Mine was a long and checkered career. Ended up with a BFA in Dramatic Writing from NYU. Along the way I took everything from Russian Formalism to German Expressionism to pre-med Biology. But not a lick of maths.

I read that on a trip to Hawaii. The day we arrived there was a tropical storm and our hotel was away in a jungle-y part of the island. While I read that night I kept looking outside at the driving rain and wind blowing the palms in the dark – just like what I was reading in the book and it scared the shit out of me.
