    My parents had a Louis Armstrong album that included that song. They played it every weekend. That was almost 60 years ago......but I still have flashbacks when I hear any of the songs.

    you probably have one of those Laker/Clipper reversable jerseys I'm guessing? I'm rooting for the Clippers to win it all this season for Norm and Nico and crew..Seeing Batum get a ring would put a smile on my face!

    What's funny is that I never saw Draymond or Dillon Brooks pull any of that post play bullshit with a dude like James Johsnons... also funny enough, James Johnson never pulled that shit with anybody else.

    It's all fake tough guy bravado. Can't stand Draymond. Don't really like Brooks either. I don't want it to come to what used to happen in NBA games back in the day (pre 90s) where the actual toughest guys in the game did come in and fuck up players after cheap plays but I also think this is lame as hell because neither of those guys is any tougher than the average dude in the league.

    Please everybody spare me if you are thinking about that cheap shot superman punch Draymond hit Poole with. Poole is very small for the NBA and Draymond didn't even have the balls to square up on him before he threw that. Typical fake tough guy BS.

    I grew up oj late 80s to late 90s hockey.

    Basketball players have never been tough.

    They're making a little noise right now but I definitely don't think it's a good idea to ever put yourself in an elimination game against an Eric Spoelstra coached team.

    Dame is never one to be defensive, so it figures he'd beat it in record setting time by going on the offensive.

    Shocker. Like I said at the time, he will be ready for the playoffs. Yes theses types of blood clots can get deadly and should not be taken lightly. But in most instances, they never come back.

    Hopefully, I did not just jinx him.
