We had this while post written up about the Clippers being average, and it wa somehow wrapped around how they sent Danny Granger to the hospital yesterday in their loss to the Pacers.
When we had finished, we looked it over and realized that our Clipper knowledge wasn’t really all that deep, but moreso that the Clippers being average simply isn’t interesting, even though JA Adande says the Clips’ Coach Mike should maybe be canned.
Part of our inability to write a compelling post on this topics stems from our purchase last week of a massive bag of bananas from Costco. It was four POUNDS of bananas for $1.37.
We remember standing there in Costco contemplating whether to buy them or not, and it took like 10 minutes, at least. On one hand, they’re $1.37. On the other, we don’t really eat bananas, so what’s the point? We even walked away once and then came back to think it over some more.
Ultimately, we bought them. The bananas were large, cheap, and bagged.
Like, what kind of farmer grows his bananas in such a way that he then must bag them – these things seemed so serious. Even the Costco employee noted upon checkout, “Ay, those are some big bananas,” to which we responded, “Yes, I agree.”
Anyway, it’s a week later and the bananas have gone bad. We threw them away just now, and we can’t help but think that years from now we’ll look back on this and somehow wonder how our personal Banana Era went so very, very wrong.
For a more in-depth, intelligent, and entertaining breakdown of Clippers-Pacers, head over to the AOL FanHouse (gasp!) and check out Miss Gossip’s writeup. Then go check out this other Pacer commentary by her.

I don’t eat bananas either, even though I alwys think I should. One thing I really hate is the smell of a banana peel in the trash. I can sniff one out from 3 rooms away. However, I make a delicious banana bread, which I love to eat, for which bad bananas are a perfect ingredient. In sum, you should have told me about this dilemma earlier and I would have flown to CA to make you banana bread.
Hey I love banana bread – I forgot all about that.
I eat a banana every day. It’s the most convenient fruit.
Next time, if your bananas are about to go rotten, you can freeze them in a ziploc. Just make sure you peel them first.
I eat like four bananas a day…
Bananas are money… especially when Gwen Stefani is singing about them… WIND IT UP!!
My favorite bad banana solution is to freeze them, as Miss Gossip does, then make a delicious banana shake later on.
Does anyone remember ‘Banana Man’? I have a vague recollection of that cartoon on Nickelodeon and my enjoying it
cavalier,
as your faithful attorney-at-law, i recommend that you stop disparaging bananas at once. ever since that whole “pineapple thing” in ‘03 (need i remind you of the gory details? let’s just say it’s a good thing you’re 1/16 pacific islander and leave it that, shall we?), the big boys at the united fruit company have been itching to take you down.
i fear this may be just the excuse they’ve been waiting for.

Banana man was a cool cartoon.. the only problem was how unrealistic it was.. I mean come on, he starts off as a little kid and then when he eats a banana, he turns into the english/british equivalent of Superman…
other than that, Bananaman was the bomb.
Ever notice how the Cavalier and Banana Man are never in the same room?
They hate each other, true story
Everything in this entire comment section is true. Thank you for your support.
My mommy sent me a valentine today.
my mommy hasn’t sent me one yet…I don’t have my annual Valentine’s Day socks!!! I’m jealous.
