Day 54

Lots of people have finals coming up. Sucks to be them.

On the issue of quarters vs semesters, it's all a matter of how you look at things. My view? Quarters are better because you have more chances in a year to not fail.

Going to start mixing things up with this blog.

On today's Daily Dime they list Matt Bonner as the worst player of the night (Box 4).

Trying to cover Pau Gasol was a tall task. Bonner spent 13 minutes on the floor with no rebounds, turning in a minus-17 in the plus-minus gauge of his brief court tenure.
 That'd be interesting and all if Bonner had actually guarded Gasol. Bonner was actually guarding Odom in his short stint. And everyone knows Bonner is a sad, sad excuse for a center on the defensive end anyway. I don't think a bad player who barely played can be the worst player of the night. It's not like he cost the Spurs the game either. This just shows that even on a night with only two games on, ESPN editors can't even bother to watch any of it and just rely on the boxscore. Which is dumb.

  2. No shit, that is obviously the other view, and I took the opposing view to give the reader an idea of how I view grades.
