:10—Well one – out – of – two ain’t so bad. The record will tell you I declared Mayweather the winner weeks ago, but truth be told, and you know I’m all about the truth, the Spurs upset my applecart big time! First things first, Money Mayweather did what we all knew he would do. He won the fight with a stiff right jab, quickness and superior defense. The Spurs on the other hand, didn’t have “the D” they needed when they needed it. A changing of the guard in the West if you will.
:09—By the way, if you should run into “The Pacman,” let him know the fight is over and he did in fact lose. Now be sure you tell him because he actually thinks he won and Evander Holyfield agrees with him. What fight was he watching?
:08—This just in, Evander wasn’t watching the fight. He was too busy reading his bankruptcy papers and trying to figure out what he’s going to do with all them damn kids!
:07—Roll call for the latest inductees for “The Locker Room,” the loyal devoted readers that help make me famous. No. 1 ~ Mrs. Neal, you’re in the Locker Room…no, not that Mrs. Neal, the other one—- Toni James’ sister; No. 2 ~ The old dude at the fight at my dad’s house who said, “Hey, are you the writer?”: No. 3 ~ The chicken man in the kitchen at Debbie’s Giant Eagle in East Hills. He’s not only in The Locker Room, he comes in like old school royalty…smooth as silk. Carry on people. Deliver the word.
:06—About the Spurs. My guess is they didn’t really think the Clippers could beat them in seven games. My bet now is there’s going to be a Golden State Cleveland Cavs showdown, but I could be wrong, but by now you know that.
:05—Hey, this is real simple…Pirates stay out of St. Louis. That’s all!!!
:04—Saturday, May 30, the High School Life Skills Seminar for high school juniors and seniors. Learn how the greats achieved greatness. Current and former college and pro players set you straight. Call 412-628-4856 to register.
:03—Of course Kevin Love out of the line-up is going to hurt, but “King James” will turn it up a couple notches to make up the difference. Much as I hate to say it, I think the Cavs are winning the East.
:02—Really, spring has sprung and still you have no feeling whatsoever for O.J.—can you be anymore heartless? Wait, while we’re here…do ya hear that? No listen. Do you hear that? Look, you’re joking and I am trying to be serious. No, no, nothing. What you don’t hear is anymore noise about Aaron Hernandez. Boo-ya!!!
