Denver Nuggets, er, Thuggets Earn Their Name

Written by Derek Hanson on .

Oh. my. goodness.  I have been saying for years that the Denver Nuggets were just a huge group of classless thugs.  For those of you who were on the fence regarding this issue, I rest my case after tonight.  If the gigantic brawl that took place in Madison Square Garden wasn’t proof enough, I don’t know what was.  To deny this fact now would prove that you’re as ignorant as those who say the holocaust is a myth and Neil Armstrong never landed on the moon.

Timberwolves Got Run Over by the Reindeers

Written by Derek Hanson on .

In other news, the Timberwolves choked away another game in their disgraceful loss to the Bucks.  It was bad enough they blew a fat lead, missed key free throws down the stretch, and that trailing by one with seconds to go, Mike James inexplicably decided to lightly touch a Bucks player who was wide open on a fast break, forcing an And-1 and putting the Wolves down 4 instead of 3 - Awful.  But what makes things worse is that we lost to the Milwaukee Reindeer.

Milwaukee Bucks New Holiday Logo

Written by Derek Hanson on .

After waking up this morning, I realized that I had totally killed my opportunity to properly mock the Bucks new color scheme last night. In my haste to wrap things up quickly, I photoshopped a red nose on the existing mascot.  In retrospect, what I should’ve done is take the extra five minutes to put together this logo.  Much funnier.

Lakers outscore Timberwolves 34-7 in the Fourth Quarter

Written by Derek Hanson on .

All I have to say is that if Dwane Casey is still the head coach when I wake up in the morning…

I don’t even know what I’ll do, but it won’t be good.  I know it was the players playing and not the coach, but where were the timely timeouts? Where were the offensive sets?  Where was any semblance of a game plan or an attempt to stop the bleeding before things got out of hand?

34-7 is on the coach.
