There Can Only Be One.....

...blogging or watching the NBA Playoffs. As you can gather from the lack of blogging, I chose the latter. 40 games in 40 nights was an absolute roller coaster ride and I'm glad(ashamed?) to say that I tuned in every night. No gym, no blogging, just me and the boys from the Association.

The last 5 months I've burned really hard on bball. Just watching it non-stop and becoming too emotionally invested in the games. Blame the Western Conference for an absolutely fabulous second half of the season where all the teams were within games of each other and the movement in the standings was very fluid. A team could go to bed in 1st place and wake up in 5th.

I was pacing back and forth during games, stretching during halftime and trying to stay warm like I was actually playing. I have never been so consumed with one sport for this long before. And that was just the regular season. The playoffs kicked it up a notch (BAM!) if you can believe it. More gut-wrenching and nail-biting games. Kudos to the NBA for putting an outstanding product on the floor night-in and night-out. A shout also goes out to my girlfriend who put up with my crazy ass during this. This summer is all yours, baby!!

Since the playoffs are winding down now I will be blogging about things I've been sitting on for a while like my buddy Dan's ceiling fan going upside his head, the Donald Sutherland look-a-like, and other random shit I've kept bottled in. So stay tuned, the constipation of my mind is about to be remedied!
