Game 7's are comin': Thunder! Thunder!

  that's quite a photo, no?  and i think its apt what with 2 Game 7's comin' up on Sunday (NBA playoffs).  for an excellent take on Phil Jackson and the Lakers, check out ESPN's John Hollinger.  i'm gonna leave this post as it is (letting the weather take over).  its late on a Friday night in New Orleans and, despite work looming in the morning, i've been out enjoying myself.  more later.  got to drink some water.

NOTE: having "Thunder" in the title to this post, it really has nothing to do with Oklahoma City.  but you all knew that.  we are talking about playoff basketball.  and despite my Oklahoma snarky-ness... Rest in Peace Wayman Tisdale.
