BDL in the Easy: Goodbye, sweet N'awlins



Well, my girly bags are packed and I'm about to say goodbye to New Orleans. I’m a little sad to go as I was just starting to get the hang off the city, but I’ll make sure to come back minus my laptop next time.

As you can imagine, BDL blog activity will be pretty light today. I have two stopovers on my way home -- one in Dallas, one in Chicago -- so we’ll see how many flights I can miss today (the over/under is 1). But if I get into Toronto at a reasonable time tonight, posts should start back up by early tomorrow afternoon.

And finally, before I go, here's a quick recap of what you may have missed over last couple of days. Throw on some jazz, enjoy the links, and I'll see you soon.

Hello, N'awlins! Stuart Scott, Rajon Rondo and marshmallow guns.
• Photos from a slow-mo Rookie shootaround.
• The NBA: Where Mike Dunleavy Jr. happens.
• D-stroy and the weirdest jersey of the weekend.
Best. Dunk. Ever.
• Though these 12 other ones were pretty sweet, too.
Jason Kapono makes me money.
Jamario Moon makes me question my "sources."
• Semi-live-blogging Saturday night's festivities.
• A photo diary of the NBA Jam Session.
Boom Tho goes big time!
My "interview" with David Stern. (And because everyone keeps asking: Yes. Yes, he was hung like a Commissioner.)
• Byron Scott shuts down The Kobe.
Semi-live-blogging Sunday's fantastic All-Star Game.
• Random thoughts on H-O-R-S-E, a happy drunk Cuban and Yi.

    For all you fans who just can't get enough news about the All-Star Game, here is a breaking report from New Orleans. All Cristal in the state of Louisiana has been consumed and there is a cognac shortage. Most tattoo parlors that offer prison- and gang-style tats are out of clean needles and ink. Lapdancers, strippers and other adult entertainers across the city are totally knackered and there is a massive sick-out. The Larry Johnson/Father of America Foundation predicts a huge spike in paternity lawsuits in New Orleans.

    Is it just me or was Jason Kidd's son raised on HGH formula as a child. He looks like he's 20, has a head as big as his dad's and shaves.

    Give the guys their props. The went to New Orleans and made a tremndous contribution. They did a marvelous job. If the NBA is the thug league. What is MLB and the NFL. Congress and Con"Vicks" I mean the MLB and NFL have been in Washington more than the Redskins and the Nationals. The steroid "Tin Min" "Brainless Scarecrows" and lying "Cowardly Pitcher "Lions" need to go see the "Wizards" while their there. Oh wait Dorthy keep Vick away from "Todo"
