LeBron James and the Orange Roundie are terrified

Facts are facts – the Mavs are better than the Cavs. Not much else to say. CLE certainly could’ve played better last night, but they didn’t. Oh well. We move forward.

Speaking of forward movement, our on-and-off posting we mentioned the other day is going to turn out to be a full-on absence. There’s no way around it, but again – we’re doing it for you.

The problem is thusly – our absence will stretch into the last week of April, with only a small comeback April 12-15. Even that’ll be, as we said, small. When we return…everything changes forever. (NOTE: WE WILL BE BACK – there seems to be some confusion about this.)

THAT SAID, we can’t leave the site naked. We want five guest writers – one for each day of the week. You’ll get a handle, a login, and you can link away to your own site, should you have one. The parameters:

1) You may or may not have noticed, but for reasons of future events, this site is now strictly PG to PG-13 at the worst. That means you can’t say f***, s***, or anything worse than a hell or a damn.

2) You need to be current. Don’t write about something that happened two days ago. Don’t write anything general like “best point guards I like who are not tall”. Don’t write statistical analysis. More than anything, be fun. Don’t try too hard – just be fun.

3) Do not try to imitate Bill Simmons. (This is not anything against Simmons, it’s just that that’s the most common “schtick” people often try in blogs. It’s his thing, he does it well – let him do it.)

4) The five we pick will endure our comments on their post (in parenthesized italics, like this) when appropriate. The most appropriate moments will be when we want to comment on the Cavaliers or make fun of what they wrote. We must have some presence – this is all we can manage. (Believe us, when “it” is all over and done with, you’ll have had enough of us, anyway.)

5) Do not try to imitate us.

That’s it. Readership…this is in your hands. We’ll post all entries and you guys can pick the five you want. It’s that simple – everyone wins! If there’s nobody you guys like, we’ll have to figure out something else.

Email one paragraph to yaysports@gmail.com – you just could be the one to help tank this site into oblivion once and for all!

(btw whichever of our friends and/or associates called us and left a message during the game, referencing the game – your number came up restricted and you didn’t identify yourself. You can email or call back, and we’ll be happy to talk to you at this time.)
