LeBron James is eating celery

(LeBron really seems like a new man this year, if what we’re reading is correct. Then again, posts like this indicate this is like last season, when everything looked fine per box scores and highlights only.
If someone is willing to help us out, we’d like to make our own assessment by sneaking a peak at the next Cavaliers game on League Pass online. That would entail acquiring a password.
They “scrapped out” a win against Boozer’s Jazz last night - always a welcome accomplishment regardless of circumstances.)
So like we have an Academy screener of 3:10 To Yuma, and we watched it.
While the movie was good, we couldn’t help but be overwhelmed by one simple fact - the DVD smelled liked celery. No joke - we sat there for like 10 minutes smelling it and re-smelling it, kind of toying with ourself.
“Does that smell like celery?”
“Yeah, it does.”
“No…it can’t. Why would it smell like celery?”
“Does that matter? Smell is again - it smells like celery.”
Now, you make think we’re weird or strange or weird-strange, but these are the kinds of things we do. And then we imagine how it got to smell like celery, which is how we get ideas for jokes.
The difference here is that there was no explanation, ridiculous or otherwise, that we could come up with on this one.
On a related note, we also have a screener for something called Away From Her, which sounds British. We have no idea what it is, but it also stars old people like Julie Christie. Britishy title + old people = not in our DVD player.
Because it’s sitting here, we looked it up, and saw it was directed by Sarah Polley, aka that chick from Go. Okay…we remember that this movie got lots of critical praise, which made us glance over the synopsis.
A man coping with the institutionalization of his wife because of Alzheimer’s disease faces an epiphany when she transfers her affections to another man, Aubrey, a wheel chair-bound mute who also is a patient at the nursing home.
Now that sounds like really deep (and confusing), but we had to laugh, because like really - they expect us to watch that? Really?
Ohio State v Michigan today - at least it’s on at 9am out here. It’s kinda hard to get excited for it when last week it was all, “National Championship oh yeah” and this week it’s all, “no National Championship, aw no”, right?

I would say don’t read that message board. The Cavs have done well to be 5-5 against tough opponents and a depleted rotation (most of the hurt guys suck, true, but they are bodies and eat minutes). The O is not the best ever, sure, but it’s 50 times better than last year. I will agree that the defense has been soft, but I suspect Brown will remedy that.
As to LeBron, these are for real stat lines. He was “force of nature-ful” last night.
And what was I thinking during that whole scene in American Gangster when Denzel’s mama was tellin’ him not to lie to her was:
“Even bad men love their mamas.”
Crowe was brilliant in 3:10 to Yuma, but his bloodthirsty sidekick stole every scene.
They are playing well and hard, and the offense is much more fun to watch.
They were crappy against the Nugs and the Mavs. Flat. Otherwise they have played tough. Part of the reason they are giving up more points is because they don’t take 24 seconds every possession anymore. More possessions for both teams, so more points on the board.
Defense is pretty inconsistent though.
LeBron can put up 25-6-6 without even breaking a sweat, but this year he’s having lines like 34-13-8 (plus 2 blocks) and actually asserting himself at the offensive end. AND he’s getting 6-8 points a night from the post, which is nice to see.
Beno Udrih is eating broccoli.
Beno went from a guaranteed 4 turnovers off the bench in the ‘05 Finals to urinating all over whomever was attempting to guard him last night…
VIVA BENO!
Will there be screeners for WSM? And if so, will they smell like asparagus?
LeBronnie likes him a cougar.
asparagus is good… if you want to fart a lot tomorrow.
There will be screeners, but not for anyone who’s flirted with the Anti-Mamba Revenge Squad.
I tried to flirt with the “Anti-Mamba Revenge Squad” but they gave me a bum phone number.
ha, so that means I won’t get a screening… douches
just for that, I’m going to try and film my own movie… “You Milled Samba?” and it’ll take place in 19th century Spain where a man gets jealous over a snake’s forbidden dance!
If Who Killed Mamba? is taking this long, then how long will The Making of Who Killed Mamba? take?
Like a million years with how much material and (do-overs, reshoots, starts from scratch) we have.
has the name of the movie changed to Who Killed Mamba? because if so, I’ve got to get fresh fanboi junx for my computer desktop…
you’re all gonna be pissed when it turns out that WSM is just another viral campaign for that cloverfield movie.
grifter,
Are you saying that “Mamba” is a lion and not a snake?
