Paid good money for nosebleed tickets for the fella, since he is a Lakers enthusiast (and Derrick Caracter fanboy) and I am basically the best girlfriend ever. It was interesting to see that many people in FedExForum. And yes, I’ve been to a Tigers game.
There were moments during the game where the Grizzlies seemed cohesive and like they were going to bowl over the Lakers without looking back. And then there were stretches of time where I felt like I was watching a high school game. Still, I have got such a soft spot for my Grizz. And the grannies and grandpas.
I suppose the highlight of the game was watching Ron Artest act like a giant effing baby when he got popped in the face. Look, you stand near either of those Gasol bastards and you’re going to get smacked by a flailing and very pale limb; that is just a fact of life. Man up, Ron. Go buy yourself something nice. Like an island.
(I honestly don’t know why I picked this picture for the day. I guess I could have picked this one but it’s not like you can see anything in that one either.)
