Ever Wonder What If???
They say hindsight is 20-20. If only the Cavs knew in the 1996 NBA Draft what they know now. In '96, the Cavs had a chance to really make an impact in the draft, but instead of taking a shot on a high school player, they went with a player who had put in the time in college. Not just any…

Lakers Win the Battle of Los Angeles Yet Again!
About two seasons ago, when the Lakers took on the Clippers, it was actually a competitive match up, but now with Pau Gasol in the lineup and a really banged up Clippers squad, it is just another easy game for the Lakers. #1 in the Western Conference, it's official, with this 113-95 blowout win…

36 days ’til Opening Day: Jered Weaver
There are 36 days left until that best day of the year, MLB’s Opening Day. 36 is also the number Jered Weaver wears on his jersey. Weaver did not have a great season last year, but was definitely more than passable as the Angels’ No. 3 starter. He did regress a bit from his stellar rookie…

There Will Be Blood Sausage. Soondae — Korean Blood Sausage. Koreatown, Los Angeles.
Soondae, Bloody, Soondae. There’s a new gold rush on in Southern California. But, what shimmers in the eyes of these 21st century prospectors is not gold or oil. It’s blood — pig’s blood. Splattered all along the Western Avenue corridor and coursing through the main artery of…

Dinner at Johnny Rockets Restaurant Hollywood

Bad Road Trip
Not only is Los Angeles designed like they let some drunk play a real life version of Sim City, I’m pretty sure that the actual roads are designed to destroy the cars that drive on them everyday. I don’t think there is a single stretch of smooth pavement longer than 50 feet. With the amount…

The Kirk Gibson Series Home Run
In our opinion, this is the biggest home run ever hit in baseball history. It should be by a member of one of the most storied franchises ever. Everything added to the drama. He hit is off the game's most dominant closer at the time, against baseball's powerhouse team. Gibson was hurt, limping…

Back When ''In Bed With Lobbyists'' Was a Metaphor
