The Los Angeles Lakers, finally showed us what we have suspected all season long. They are more talented, faster & quicker, deeper on the bench........and..........they have one Mr. Kobe Bryant.
Final score?
A blowout in game 6 of the Western Finals, 119-92........Lakers.
Yes.......some moron in Tennessee is attempting to repopulate the world.......all by himself. And .....these have to be the 11 most ignorant, desperate, and gullible females in all the world.
And this guy is only 29..........and has never been told .....of .....perhaps.......the wearing of a condom? And these 11 women..........There is such a thing........as "birth control".
Who eventually pays? The taxpayers...........Us..........
In my court of life........this guy would be sentence to life...........Life, without .....a penis ......and without testicles.......
From dailymail.co.uk/news/worldnews:
Man fathers 21 children by 11 different women... and he's only 29
A man aged 29 has fathered 21 children with 11 different women, it emerged yesterday.
Desmond Hatchett's brood came to light after authorities in Tennessee in the U.S. took him to court for non-payment of child support.
He has apparently set a U.S. record but said: 'It just happened.'
He added that he would not have any more children. 'I'm done. I'll say I'm done,' he said.
Hatchett, who earns a minimal wage, told TV reporters he knows the names and ages of all his offspring.
Their ages range from newborn to 11 years old.
Authorities in Knoxville said they plan to take half of his monthly salary to pay for the youngsters but officials said that would work out to just over $1 a week for each.
His lawyer Keith Pope said: 'The children can't all be supported by Desmond, so the state of Tennessee has had to step in.'
Many Knoxville residents called for him to be castrated.
He even boasted of fathering four children by different women in the same year.
Hatchett's name appeared on court documents 11 times representing 15 of his 21 children.
U.S. authorities are now braced for more women coming forward to claim Hatchett is the father of their children after he appeared on local TV.
He said the women he was involved with all knew he had other children.
One mother, who has two children with Hatchett, said she should get $44 a month but rarely receives any child support.
'It's frustrating, but usually, when I ask he gives it to me,' she said.
Authorities in Knoxville ordered Hatchett to court to explain how he intends to pay child support.
He arrived for the hearing with just over $300.
Child support?........child support? And I thought I had it rough.......with 1 child....
Here's one TV news account.....courtesy of YouTube:
The 4-year-old daughter of boxing champion Mike Tyson has died after her neck apparently got caught in a cord dangling from a treadmill at their home. Tyson was in Las Vegas at the time of the accident, but immediately returned home to Phoenix when his young daughter was hospitalized.
Exodus' 7-year-old brother found her and told their mother, who was in another room. She took Exodus off the cord, called 911 and tried to revive her.
With everything that has happened to Mr. Tyson in his life..........this may be the toughest ever to deal with. The loss of a child..........so young.
We send our condolences to the entire Tyson family......
What ..........a tragedy.
We sure didn't see this one coming.......but we should have.....
The Orlando Magic beat the Cleveland Cavaliers last night, 116-114, in overtime to take that proverbial "commanding" 3-1 lead in the best of 7 NBA Eastern Conference Finals.
How did we get here? Cleveland boasted the best record in league..........66-16. Then these Cav's destroyed Detroit and Atlanta........in 4-0.......and 4-0. They have the reigning MVP in LeBron James.......They play defense.......They play with high energy.
So...........how can the Magic .......be so close to winning this series?
Let's take ........a closer look.....at both teams. Cleveland has one bona fide superstar, Mr. James. (Following Game 4, James, averaging 42.3 points, 7.3 rebound and 7.3 assists)
Orlando? They have the games' best center (offensively and defensively) in Dwight Howard. They also have a budding superstar in Rashard Lewis( a 6' 10" swing man), a wily veteran in Hedo Turkoglu ( a 6' 10" European) who can play guard or forward, and ..........a veteran point guard in Rafer Alston........who is simply out playing all-star wanna be , Mo Williams.........and support.......off the bench.
The Magic is much more balanced.......and have more talent. It was there.....always there....We just listened a bit too much to those "sports talking geeks" who already had the finals of the NBA played out....with Kobe versus LeBron.
It could still happen..........but we don't think so.
Other "stuff".......we're keeping an eye..........and an ear on.......
GM says bondholder offer fails; bankruptcy likely ............So what happened to all that bail-out money? I told you so.....We should have let them fail back in December of '08.......This was so.......inevitable.
In this southern college town.....the rain has been constantly ......sporadic....... Rain, sun, rain....This has been going on for the past seven days. The garden is loving it........the lawn is almost all green now. And the drought we've suffered the past couple of years........seems a distant memory.
Memorial Day, 2009........
Did you pause.......at 3:00 pm? And remember all the men and women of the armed forces who paid the ultimate price ......with their lives?
NBA Play-offs........
Neither Cleveland nor Los Angeles appear to be a sure thing for the finals.....Denver and Orlando are making their own cases. Cleveland.......except for that miracle shot by LeBron....should be down 0-3...........And the Lakers? They looked slow and un-physical last night. Kobe and LeBron...........could use some help. Can you hear me .......now?
Braves sweep Toronto.......
Yes..........the Atlanta Braves swept the Toronto Blue Jays ..........3 games to none....Hitting.......scoring runs.......great pitching.......These Braves are only a game and a half out of first place..........Who would of "thunk" it!
Here come the Yankees........
Given up for dead a week ago........the Yanks reeled off 7 in a row........with A-Rod back.....and are now within a game of Boston for the lead in the AL East. Still.......the best team .......money can buy.
Which was better? The Indy 500......or the Coca-cola 600?
The Indy race........with 300,000 fans.......looked good on TV..........but still no drama.......At Charlotte, the Coca-cola 600 had the misfortune of "mother natures' " rain.......Both failed me. Just wasn't interested.......Also ........at the Coca-cola 600 ......on Sunday.......The "fly by" by the Navy's f-14's.......was a bit premature.......They flew by .......in the middle of the "National Anthem".......as opposed to flying by ..........at the end........which is what was planned.
All in all?
A great week-end..........even though the sports world......was a bit.....sub par. But I guess thats what friends and families are for.
