(Jack Cobra getting ready to close up shop for the day…)
I’m not sure if this is good or bad news to the Cavs fans out there, but Larry Hughes is going to be out at least a month. I figure he’s going to go on a cruise the the Bahamas and do some deep sea […]

Well, any chance that the Cavaliers would be cured of their horrendous case of preseason malaise via the long-attempted trade for SAC’s Mike Bibby is on hold.
The non-gang member has contracted what is known as torn hand ligaments. In medical circles, this is known as torn hand ligaments.
What it means is the ligaments in the […]

Kobe Bryant injuring his wrist should probably be the biggest winner of the What’s the Cavalier Gonna Write About Today? Award.
A logical runner-up would obviously be LeBron heading down to the low post more often FINALLY.
But no - not today. Neither of those lines of thought bring forth the mystical quality we so often strive […]

There are certain nightmares that any Cleveland sports fan has.
One would be the Indians getting clubbed to death by the City of Boston Red Socks. The other is LeBron James getting injured before the season even starts.
In a grand show of cosmic cruelty, both events occurred last night.
The former in the ALCS, the latter […]

The Cavaliers apparently played one of the 9 worst NBA games of all-time lasterday night, so we’re going to skip it and move on to something of actual substance for once. (Not counting that time we had a jihad against smokers.)
Henry of Abbot has a post up today about the dreaded microfracture surgery and how […]

Welcome to the ALL-NEW ESPN, which allows you to embed their stuff on your site, which will allow bloggers to truly, finally synergize the whole “complaining about ESPN, while linking to ESPN’s writers and using ESPN to get all their news” experience.

How do we like this? We love it, and to explain our reasons why […]

One of the most exciting things for the 15 people who can call themselves official members of the Cleveland Cavaliers is the opening of the team’s new training facility, which happened lasterday afternoon.
(Tons of pics of the place here.)
Located across the street from the curiously named “LePeep” cafe, and also full of wonderful opening day […]

We’re not on the regular computer, so we’ll have more on this tomorrow morning, all of which will be depressing.
Greg Oden is out for the year - that thing they did on his knee thing?
The dreaded microfracture surgery. There are no laughs to be had here - no jokes to be made. There’s no lambasting […]

We’re not going to get all up in Elton’s face for rupturing his achilles tendon like we did with Shaun Livingston about his knee.
Yeah, they’re both Clippers, and yeah, both of their injuries are horrible ones.
The difference is that we like Elton Brand, while we have nothing but indifference for Shaun Livingston.
Regardless, Brand […]

As we wrote about lasterday (Yes, this would be posts two days in a row!), Greg Oden has been struggling in summer league.
If you’re a Blazer fan who’s inexplicably looking too much into that and causing yourself a panic attack or two, your days of humbling fears are over.
Greg is getting his tonsils taken […]
