Star Wars Weekend
As man of you know Drew is headed to Star Wars weekend this weekend and I wanted to give him this little send off!

Sorry Kobe but the "Truth" hurts!
Last night every green blooded (Yes because most of us are Irish) fellow from Boston was treated to a 17th NBA championship. First the Pats, then the Red Sox after that, and now finally the Celtics can add themselves to the list of Boston sports teams putting the city back on the map. The only thing sweeter in my mind would have been the Magic hoisting that trophy last night, but if they couldn’t then I’m glad the boys from my hometown could.
The best thing about this game 6 spanking the C’s handed the Lakers, was seeing 3 great players finally win their championships. Many great players have retired with out getting to feel the ultimate accomplishment in the NBA, a title. Three quick names that come to mind are Charles Barkley, John Stockton, and Karl Malone. I was, up until this year, convinced that “The Truth” and KG’s careers would suffer the same fate. But alas that was not to be. With a little under a minute left and a 40 point lead Paul Peirce threw a bucket of gator aid over coach Rivers. Garnett was courtside exchanging hugs and Hi-5’s with teammates, fans, and honestly I think anyone who congratulated him. As you will see at the bottom video he was very emotional after the game in an interview he screamed: “Anything is possible.” And “Top of the world.”
The “Truth” who of this group is the only career Celtic, fittingly won the finals MVP award and thanked the fans of Boston for sticking by him all the years he has been there. All very emotional, they celebrated a Cinderella season after going from only winning 20 games, (or in KG and Allen’s case just being on going nowhere teams) to being NBA champions. Honestly I can’t see it happening to three better players either.

Tiger Woods To Undergo Reconstructive Knee Surgery and Miss Remainder of 2008 Season
6/18/2008 3:02:00 PM
Doctors assure Woods that long-term prognosis is very good with rehabilitation and training
Just days after winning the 2008 U.S. Open in a dramatic sudden-death playoff, Tiger Woods announced that he will be forced to undergo reconstructive Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) surgery on his left knee and will miss the remainder of the PGA TOUR season.
In addition to the knee surgery, Woods will require the time off to rehabilitate a double stress fracture of his left tibia that was discovered last month just prior to the Memorial Tournament. The stress fractures were attributed to Woods' intense rehabilitation and preparations for the U.S. Open. Doctors have assured Woods that the stress fractures will heal with time.
"I know much was made of my knee throughout the last week, and it was important to me that I disclose my condition publicly at an appropriate time. I wanted to be very respectful of the USGA and their incredibly hard work, and make sure the focus was on the U.S. Open," said Woods. "Now, it is clear that the right thing to do is to listen to my doctors, follow through with this surgery, and focus my attention on rehabilitating my knee."
A date for the knee surgery, as well as the necessary rehabilitation schedule, has not yet been determined.
"While I am obviously disappointed to have to miss the remainder of the season, I have to do the right thing for my long-term health and look forward to returning to competitive golf when my doctors agree that my knee is sufficiently healthy," said Woods. "My doctors assure me with the proper rehabilitation and training, the knee will be strong and there will be no long-term effects."
Woods originally ruptured the ACL in 2007 following The Open Championship when he was running at his home in Orlando. At that point, he elected to not have surgery, and instead attempted to play through the pain. Following the injury, Woods went on to win five of the next six events he entered, including the WGC-Bridgestone Invitational, the PGA Championship, the BMW Championship, the TOUR Championship and the Target World Challenge, while also finishing second at the Deutsche Bank Championship. He carried that streak over into 2008, winning his first four events of the year, the Buick Invitational, the Dubai Desert Classic, WGC-Accenture Match Play and the Arnold Palmer Invitational.
In the fall of 2007, Woods decided to forego a number of playing opportunities to allow the knee time to heal in preparation for the 2008 season. He still experienced pain early in 2008, however, and in an effort to allow him to play through the remainder of the season, elected to have arthroscopic surgery immediately following the Masters to clean out cartilage damage. The cartilage damage in fact developed as a result of the ACL injury, and Woods' hope was that the arthroscopic surgery would get him through the remainder of the season and allow him to delay the ACL surgery until after the season.
"My rehabilitation schedule after the arthroscopic surgery was designed with the goal of returning to play at the Memorial, but the stress fractures that were discovered just prior to the tournament unfortunately prevented me from participating and had a huge impact on the timing for my return," said Woods. "I was determined though, to do everything and anything in my power to play in the U.S. Open at Torrey Pines, which is a course that is close to where I grew up and holds many special memories for me. Although I will miss the rest of the 2008 season, I'm thrilled with the fact that last week was such a special tournament."
Tiger Woods, ranked number one in the world on the Official World Golf Ranking and leading the 2008 PGA Tour Money Leaders list, has 65 PGA TOUR victories to his credit, including 14 major championships, ranking him third all-time in wins, just eight behind Jack Nicklaus and 17 behind the all-time leader Sam Snead. This past week, Woods also celebrated his 500th week as the number one ranked player in the world, a position he first attained eleven years ago on June 15, 1997.
"I would like to thank my fans and partners for their continual support and can assure everyone that I will be as dedicated to rehabilitating my knee as I am in all other aspects of my career," said Woods
Updates on Woods' surgical and rehabilitation timelines will be provided at a later date once a schedule has been finalized.

Once again Hollywood proves they have nothing original
OK, I know I posted the Smurfs thing earlier but I am not sure which hurts more Hollywood killing my childhood cartoons or them killing one of my first rated R movies. I know, I know, it wasn't a great movie to start with but I have a fond place in my heart for RoboCop.

Obama's Baby Mama
I know we don't discuss politics and all but this really isn't about politics its about integrity. How in the world do you stay on TV with things like this. Fox attempts to be funny but they also claim to be "Fair and Balance". I call BS on that one. Not only are they not "fair and balanced" but they could be considered racist with some of the things they have said on air recently. OK, sorry about that folks I just needed to vent for a bit

Biking Disaster
So I have seen some fucked up things in my life but I came across this news article the other day. A US citizen in Mexico gets drunk, passes out while driving, and runs into a bike race. One person ended up dead because of it and he really didn't seem to have any excuses, no wonder people around this world hate us. The only other thing I was really wondering about is why the hell the cop who was escorting the race decided to move out of the way. I would think his cruiser could take a hit a lot better than a bunch of guys on their bikes.
Car crashes into bike race; one dead
