i've been following the suns & spurs NBA playoff series. altho i like both teams, i root for the suns just coz i believe spurs have had their share of the championship and i absolutely adore steve nash. i had nothing against spurs originally and would always root for them if they play any other team in NBA. but after 4 games in this serie, i start to have my doubts.

========== news cuts ==========
Last week, Stoudemire called the Spurs a "dirty team" and targeted Bruce Bowen and Ginobili in particular. He said Bowen purposely kicked him in the Suns' Game 2 win.

And Bowen gave his critics ammunition when in Game 3 on Saturday he kneed Nash in the groin area. Nash said Monday before the game that Bowen told him on the court that the move was unintentional. The foul originally called on the play was upgraded to a "flagrant foul 1."

Tonight..... with eighteen seconds left, the Suns were up by three points and Steve Nash was in possession of the ball. San Antonio forward Robert Horry, while attempting to stop the clock, body-checked Nash off the court and into the lower-padding of the scorers table.
========== /news cuts ==========

the worst thing about the incident is that two suns players who were on the bench walked onto the court. and apparently that may earn them automatic suspension for the next game. in this tied 2-2 series, the suns cannot afford to lose two starters for an altercation the spurs player started..... i have to agree with charles barkley that it would be completely unfair. and one suns fan put it correctly "If the Suns get players suspended for the Horry incident, Horry looks like a genius." from here

it's pretty sad it has to come to this. i don't know what the league is going to do.

suspending Stoudemire and Diaw:
pro - league enforces the rule & law
con - sending wrong image to the sport as playing dirty wins

one thing tho if you don't think steve nash is tough. think again.

the worst

benji won YAY!

i missed the finale coz i fell asleep 7 on wednesday. too tired from work. but i was able to download the torrent. i am so happy that benji won. he was definitely the most entertaining character on the show for me.

fist of the north star is THE manga series andy has been obsessed with. of course i got drawn into it as well. he spent hrm about $150 on a complete set of DVD of the TV series (released 1984-1987). it's about 150 episodes. it includes the first series and its sequel. the TV series is obviously not as concise as the movie but it's still fun to watch. here's a review of the movie - it might not be everyone's cup of tea. it's extremely violent but overall i enjoy the story line. i was so happy to finally obtain the theme song of the first TV series on mp3. you can listen to it on my radioblog and download it here.

oh yea the MOVIE SEQUEL titled "New Fist of the North Star" bites. don't get them!

alright, just finished saturday football party. what an unbelievably dominating season opener game for the hawkeyes!
56-0 against ball state
441 total yards
200 passing
241 rushing
our 1st string QB got 9/10 99 yards and 2 TD
2nd string QB got 9/9 92 yards

my favorite parts of the recap
"Iowa's defense, anchored by four underclassmen on the front line, held the Cardinals to 22 yards total offense in the first half and helped Iowa notch its first opening game shutout since 2001."

"Ball State set up as if to go for it on fourth down, but quarterback Joey Lynch stepped back and delivered a quick kick that was scooped up by Hawkeye cornerback Jovan Johnson at the Iowa 10.

Johnson slipped a pair of defenders, crossed the field behind a wave of blockers and raced down the opposite sideline untouched for the score, his first career touchdown and the fourth-longest punt return in school history."

"Lynch, replaced by backup Warren Suess midway through the third quarter, was 6-of-10 passing for 37 yards and was sacked three times. Suess was 5-for-12 for 56 yards against Iowa's third-string defense."

boy cbs predits iowa to be in the rose bowl this year. wooo hope we can live up to the expectation. aww can't wait for the games to start!
