PrintSan Antonio Spurs at Dallas Mavericks, Mar 4, 2009 8:00 PM CST
Because you can insult the Mavs in any language
(Thanks to Borosai from ST.com)
Tonight is Noche Latina, so we get to see Los Spurs play at Dallas versus Los Mavs. That's worked as great for us in the past as White's sombrero did for him, so I'm definitely looking forward to it.
Now, there's some stuff going on at work lately, so I didn't have the time for a proper review. I'm typing this on a laptop while semi-hidden in the emergency stairs, so today I'm going to take a page out of ATS's book and write one of his classic "Hack Previews" (c).

My personal pre-game favorite has got to be Rosario’s… however, they do not have puffy tacos. They have a great bar and excellent food. My fave is the Pescado Veracruz… but you can check out their menu at their website. http://rosariossa.com/
If you’re looking for Puffy Taco’s then Henry’s is the place… but it may be right at the 20 mile mark. Here’s their site. http://www.henryspuffytacos.com/
Last one… Picante Grill on Broadway… I’ve never had their Puffy Tacos, but everything else has always been great. Their Pozole is awesome. http://www.henryspuffytacos.com/
I would go with Rosarios. Anyone else have an ideas?

Into English? The one where you cut the wood with your mouse? It’s called Splitter, and it’s all in English, as far as I know. I’m sure you can find the other games in English flash sites if you google for their names. The games themselves don’t change.

Yeah, although Goodendog sounds similar to Goodentag, maybe we should just pronounce it Goodendag to make a compromise.

Can we have a widget with the standings? And then one with the games to come. A stock widget to see how the market is everyday would be nice, and a weather channel widget to quickly check the weather. Oh, and a box office widget, showing the top 10 movies, just for fun.

I’d be happy with a standings schedule.
And also a widget for the number of times a PTR member has commented on you getting PWND by Manu.
"Well if I am truly crazy, don't you know I like my life that way"
Here's my LatinD impression:
"Manu, before I ask my question, here is some background:
Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.
Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.
But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate — we can not consecrate — we can not hallow — this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us — that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion — that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain — that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom — and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.
Given that, can we be best friends? Maybe next time you’re back in Brazil we can go grab a cup of coffee. I just know if we got to know each other we’d really hit it off. I’ll camp outside your house with high-powered binoculars just to make sure we don’t accidentally miss each other.
Sincerely,
LatinD"

The à character doesn’t technically exist in English, so I think he’s in the clear. Besides, it’s a bit pretentious to put the accents in—it makes you seem like a community activist. However, if you don’t, you look ignorant to people who know better.
My name is “Tomás RodrÃguez,” so believe me, I know, and struggle with whether to add the accent or not. If I don’t, I risk people misspelling my name as “Thomas Rodriquez.”
Pretentious? It’s how it’s spelt… not adding accents always seemed lazy to me. It’s as if Brazilians chanced their ç for a z, just because there was no ç key in their keyboards.
But that might be just me.

Also, Russians in the US use English equivalents to spell their Cyrillic alphabet, as do Chinese/Japanese/Indians etc. The Spanish alphabet is closer, but still different, as it contains extra characters.
That are easily added, whereas Cyrillic is nearly impossible to use on the fly.
Never mind, though, just a pet peeve.

Okay, I’m ready to blame people.
1st. Pop. Way to go with what doesn’t work.
2nd. Tim. Way to let Dampier POWELLND you.
3rd. Finley. I take it all back. Matthew was right, you’re evil.

Hey it’s too easy to blame Pop, the whole team played defense like shit. We are lucky the Mavs suck otherwise we would’ve gotten blown out. BUT, that being said. Please Pop, let Hill run the point from now on.
When you look like I do it's hard to get a table for one at Chuck E. Cheese- Zach Galifianakis
We played Finley defense, as a team.

Yeah. It helps that Finley was playing, but yes.

I’d say hi, but I’m depressed. Stick around, warmer winds will blow eventually.

We need some sort of player that can close games and can attack the basket and isnt a wimp on defense.
HMMMMMMMMMMMM
Hey all, sorry I missed the end of this game…but I followed it via cell phone (again). My girlfriend hates my cursing.

Someone please convince me that we are stil mailing it in on defense, and that we wil be one of the top three defensive clubs by the start of the playoffs…….
please……convince me .
pronto.
They didn't mail it in last night.
Sure there was missed rotation or 5 last night, but you gotta give Dallas some credit. Jason Kidd shot 60% from the field last night. That RARELY happens. Credit is due.

They shot 54 pct as a team. And 47% from 3 point land.
Id say they mail it in on D.
Its not as if we were facing some offensive juggernaut.
But yea, Kidd def made the spurs pay for sagging…….
Sometimes you just have to give the other team credit. I’m not impressed with Dallas either, but credit is due. Like I say, every game isn’t going to be a defensive gem, so you take it as it is. The thing I took out of that game was Dallas playing about as well as they can play and still barely eeking out a victory. While the Spurs played poorly and still nearly go the W. They were giving effort, they just didn’t have it last night and that’s the way the cookie crumbles sometimes.

I know dennard.
It just frustrates me that this guy didnt get permanently banned for tossing timmy out of a late season contest, for laughing………( what do you think happens if he tosses Kobe Bryant for laughing?)
AND THEN he is allowed to ref in game five of last years conference finals… ugh i better stop. Gonna give myself an ulcer…..
It is what it is. Joey Crawford grades out as one of the best NBA referees when the NBA uses whatever grading metrics they use. Joey is a certified ass rash, but he wouldn’t have the temerity to throw a guy like LeBron or Kobe out for laughing on the sideline. Frankly, I believe a majority of the refs in all of professional sports suck, but what can you do.

Hey…anyone interested in starting a Thursday night Loser Thread for the Mavs and Suns or Thuggets and Blazers?

I dont mean to beat a dead horse , but
Dennard, you made a good point that Joey must be a good official , and that this is the reason he is in the league ( although i have not seen enough of him to form a concrete opinion on his officiating)
Its just that its frustrating that he is the same guy that fouls Tim Duncan out, because Dirks clumsy ass clearly stepped on timmys foot while driving to the basket in ….was it game 5 against dallas in ………06? ( im horrible with dates and games)
Then he proceeds to get argumentative with timmy before throwing him out of a potentially meaningful late season game 2 years ago.
And the icing is not calling the foul against fish in game five last year ( I do not believe this is why we lost that series, but STILL)
This wasnt the first time Joey did the wrong thing during a meaningful game , this link is a great read into his past.

Joey should not be refereeing basketball games. Thats all there is to it.
