The one where I have no idea what the hell I’m doing but I’m gonna do it.
UConn studs of yesteryear: Ray-Ray and B-Gor
The Celtics surely miss Kevin Garnett, but they are not at a loss for exciting playoff performances. Game one went to overtime. Game two, Ray Allen had other ideas.
Down the stretch the game turned into a bare-knuckle brawl between two former University of Connecticut greats: Ben Gordon and Ray Allen. They traded shot for shot through most of the last four minutes of the game, the last of which was the game winner by Allen with less than three seconds left. When the clock read zeros the Celtics had scrapped out the win, 118-115.
Gordon strapped da Bulls to his back and did his best to steal both games from the Celtics in the Boston Garden. He scored the last twelve points for his side finishing with forty-two total. Barkely and the TNT crew would not let you forget that “this is not a highlight reel… these are consecutive plays.” Thanks, Round Mound, your hard-hitting analysis has added value to my life once again. Now tell me something useful like where to find the best blowskie you’ve ever had.
In the other playoff game on the docket, the Spurs saved face at home against the Mavericks with a 105-84 shellacking. I’d say I watched the game intently, but I was more worried about Tim Duncan getting more points+rebounds than Dirk. Wooo! Streak for the Cash! I’m at a whopping 2! Watch out, million dollars, here I come.
Up ahead are the all-important Houston sports updates:
Texans – Darius Walker has been attending classes in the off-season to fulfill a promise to finish his degree at Notre Dame. And what’s with the incongruous exclamation marks in this article. South Bend’s news leader, WSBT, you’re not a blog. Leave the exclamatory (inflammatory) statements to us!!
Rockets – Do we seriously need a two day break between round one games of the playoffs? Seriously? You know you’re doing it wrong when the playoffs last half as long as the regular season.
Astros – Last night the radio told me that Houston lost four to three to Cincinnati. Because I’m lazy and because that losing is depressing I’m willing to take that account at face (ear) value and not look up a score.
Dynamo – After their first win of the season and refusal to play Ade Akinbiyi I feel it only appropriate to report that Ade’s old team, Burnley, beat Sheffield yesterday, 1-0. “Fourth and Fifty: Where to find all your information on England’s B-League.”
University of Houston – Coach P-nizzle is back to his old bag of tricks signing San Jac JuCo Maurice McNeil. Put that fourth chalk mark up on the board. How many more scholarships are there to give out?

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
McNeil is the real deal. So should I get 2 or 4 season hoops tickets?
What did you think of the three high schoolers he picked up?
I think they kick ass.
All 4 are solid recruits. I’m really looking forward to both football and basketball season.
I’m looking forward to Curling season. There’s no reason Curling can’t be a marquis sport in America. It’s either that or I’m throwing my support behind a professional biathlon league.
so what you’re saying is, you’re bi-curious?
Jeff’s tri-curious…. because he’ll TRY anything.
Thanks folks, I’ll be here all week. Don’t forget to tip your waitstaff.
We need to get a FaF tailgate area set up at the Rob….
For Curling or Football season?
All in favor of a Fourth and Fifty tailgate area say, “Aye Carumba.”
foosball – I got 4 season tickets in the chair seats in 121 :D
Biathletes are lame. Triathletes are the real deal. I know it’s true because your mom told me. Pwn3d.
I’m going on record to say a) having an FaF tailgate seems like a really bad idea if we (mostly me) continue to flame things/people and b) we kind of already have a tailgate.
whatever, that’s cool, keep to your clique
my bros and I will just glom onto the Delta Upsilon tailgate (again)
