    Better know Spanish if you visit Miami. :O

    I know LO is inconsistent but is he hurt a bit? Seems off this year and I've heard it might be some of the wear and tear?

    He still has a bad back.

    I think he should take a few games off then, we can handle it.

    He's playing more on the perimeter this season and worked hard to improve his outside shooting mechanics. I'm sure they'll monitor his minutes and hopefully the Lakers can put teams away early to keep the main guys well rested. The Oklahoma game last night was over after one half of basketball, hopefully that trend continues.

    LO no longer has high expectations. His contract is fairly reasonable now and we all know what we're going to get out of him. Great some nights, invisible on others. He's really no different now than he was his other 5 years here, except that he is no longer starting. If you're looking at his stats: 9 ppg, 9 rpg, 5 apg, it's not too terrible for an 8 million dollar man and the minutes he is getting. LO is no longer the 2nd, 3rd option. With Kobe/Drew/Pau/Ron he is the 5th best player on the team and he has done his job. No complaints from me. :)

    He's a lot less efficient this year, on fewer shots. That's why I bring it up.

    Probably because he hangs around the perimeter so much now...

    I prefer Odom out on the perimeter now with Drew & Gasol dominating in the paint. Odom has really improved his outside touch and he's great at cutting down the lane when his defender cheats. His rebounding has suffered playing further away from the rim, but again Drew/Gasol are making up for it.

    He absolutely did, and then he claimed that he had no idea what Jordan Jejjerson was doing when he clocked it. Fucking asshat.

    I just won a fantasy football game 67.82-67.76. I thank Rod Bironas for that long FG he made to win me that game.

    I've scored a couple of blu rays, a camera plus a memory card and free case for my girl for Xmas.

    On Friday, I'll just go out in the early morning and score a shit load of DVD's and Blu Ray's.

    Yea...about that whole Black Friday shit. I'll be sleeping, for sure. Though I think I'm gonna go out and get some shit tomorrow at Best Buy for their early Black Friday deals. They've got a bunch of DVDs on sale and I might snag a couple seasons of The Office while I'm at it.

    Anyone been to clubs in Los Angeles lately? I paid $17.00 for a New Castle on Saturday night at HWood. Unbelievable. They also "hooked us up" at $500.00 bottles of vodka for table service, normally $800.00. A small bottle of water was $6.00.

    Hilarious show.

    God, I love Dwight.

    If you're looking for movies and shit, they usually upstock hardcore on those so you can head out later in the morning to Walmart, BB, and Target to see what's left. That's what I usually do and I've scored some great deals.

    Just played an epic game on XBL in NBA 2K10.

    I had an 11 point lead with just under 2 minutes to go that I managed to squander. I was down 3 with about 11 seconds to go, nearly turned the ball over at midcourt because of a press, Odom managed to save the ball from going out of bounds and got it to Kobe, I managed to get behind the three point line and getting a three off just before the buzzer to send it to OT, which I then proceeded to dominate, winning 80-72, held my opponent to 2 OT points. But wow, the end of regulation was just nuts. I thought I had the game in the bag and managed to choke it away because he got hot from 3 point range.
