The Finger Wag – Athletes using Twitter and Social Media to their Disadvantage

So you are faced with a scary possibility:
By the time you read this there is a very good chance 3 of the NBA’s second round series will be sweeps. If you know the NBA they will not reschedule games because the playoffs just absolutely need to end in late June.

So what are you to do? I suggest watching the hockey playoffs which have actually been entertaining.

Now considering hockey is on Versus and you might not be able to watch it I am sure TNT has you covered. They will have to play something instead of the NBA.

Let’s see what they got:

Air Force One – I never saw this one so I checked out amazon reviews, one is titled “Just simply wants to make you weep for America,”

Blue Streak – You can actually watch Shaq! Oh wait no, that was Blue Chip… I have no idea what the fuck this movie is

The Chronicles Of Riddick – Remember when people thought Vin Diesel was a good actor? Me neither

The Legend Of Zorro – No, not The Mask of Zoro, the movie that got enough people to warrant a sequel. This is the sequel who’s plot attempts to teach youngsters that the only reason California is a state is thanks to Antonio Banderas

Mission: Impossible III – Ok I actually kind of liked this one, I am a sucker for Philip Seymour Hoffman

Payback – Mel Gibson movie and the plot is described as “Porter is shot by his wife and best friend and is left to die. When he survives he plots revenge.” Great title for a movie about plotting revenge. Speaking of Mel Gibson, he was banging a porn star

Paycheck – A John Woo movie starring Ben Affleck?!? How have I never heard of this

Ransom – GIMMIE BACK MY SON!!!!!!!

So yeah, thanks NBA for not bending and ruining any momentum the playoffs have.

So I was doing some “research” for the site during the Mavs at Spurs game last night and ran across Jarvis Moss live tweeting his thoughts on the game.  Here they are, presented for you:

If you didn’t see the ending of tonights Bulls vs. Cavs contest, Lebron James went nuts.

The game wasn’t especially close, but the Bulls just couldn’t stop James from scoring how ever he wanted. It’s like the Cavs took that horrendous isolation strategy that cost them a trip to the finals last year and made it actually work.

Aside from some brilliant finishing moves, Lebron also lit up the interwebs. Here’s a review…
