Take That Kobe

I know some people may be excited about the NBA Championships, even though everyone knows they are as fake as wrestling (sorry Pastor Randy). Lakers and Celtics? As scripted as one of my Granny's "programs".

Around here people could care less about the NBA because we have women's beach volleyball featuring my wife! She declined to play in the sharp-shooter dart competition claiming she had once hit (darted?) someone in the neck. She limped through the apple-eating competition but she went all out at volleyball, even hitting the dirt trying to return one.
This is what she was calling "the hammer" a.k.a. her serve! Serious power.
Notice how different the women here dress for beach volleyball than what you might see on ESPN2 or some other cut rate sports network.
In the end it went three games. A nail-biter! Believe it or not Angie woke the next morning trying to figure out why her arms hurt so bad...

Actually, beach volleyball players' arms get tired because they spend too much darned time high-fiving one another. Thankfully, it hasn't caught on yet with these ladies.

NBA Championships? I thought they stopped those when Jordan left the Bulls?

The World Cup is where it's at. I'm tuning in. If anything, it'll keep me tuned into sports until Wimbeldon.

It's Hammer Time! Go Angie!
Tell the Prince of Persia the game will be available to him...but he must do well on his drum exams...
