Most of you probably don’t know this but sports bloggers get major love from the ladies. There’s nothing that turns a woman on like a man that spends hours in front of a computer dressed in a doritos stained wife-beater and boxers worrying about things like google pagerank, Alexa, and search engine optimization while googling [...] Related posts: Mark Cuban Says Pro Sports Need Newspapers Most of you...

As we noted in last night's postgame report, there were a lot of negatives stacked up against the Lakers in their 116-105 loss to the Hornets Tuesday night at Staples. The Lakers, thin already with injuries to Luke Walton and Jordan Farmar, lost Lamar Odom to a hyperextended knee in the second quarter, forcing to play the second half without him. He'll undergo an MRI exam today, but very well could...

One of the advantages to being an athlete while you’re in high school, college, or on the professional ranks is the treatment you get from women. If you take a kid and make him a member of the school’s math team, odds are he’s not going to have very many math team groupies, and the [...]

Yes, things have been that much fun in the last 10 days for the Lakers, who have won six straight and ascended to the top spot in the NBA, whether by win percentage or power ranking. Sure, the ranks are a little thinner, with Jordan Farmar joined on the shelf by Luke Walton, but LA seems to have rediscovered their rhythm, especially on the defensive end. Over the course of the win streak, only the...

With Jordan Farmar out, I know the point guard situation is front and center on the minds of many fans, so with that in mind, I thought I'd weigh in on a couple issues: PJ reiterated after the game that the team is in no hurry to fill Farmar's slot on the roster. There's a good chance the team could simply wait it out. Chatter before the game Sunday night indicated bringing Jannero Pargo back from...

A box sits under Kevin Garnett's metaphorical tree, this fine Christmas morn, and inside it is nothing other than the shattered remains of Jordan Farmar's knee. Merry Christmas, big guy. Not only will Farmar miss today's game that will either " answer all questions ," be " just another game ," or be " a complete gimmick ," but he'll also be sidelined for eight more weeks . Yikes. This Lakers team is...

Just got word from the Lakers that Jordan Farmar's time under the knife went off without a hitch. His recovery time is estimated at eight weeks. Emphasis on "estimated." Remember, this would be a mere approximation, not a guarantee of Farmar being ready for action precisely two months to the minute he wakes up from the anesthesia. Treat the eight weeks as a minimum and allow yourself the joy of being...
