Ball Don't Lie - NBA

I can't possibly sum p this graphics snafu better than The Sports Hernia, so let's just let them have it:

"It must be some feeling, that special moment, the first time you're introduced at Game 1 of the NBA Finals. Likely something you've been waiting for your entire life and probably unsure of when it will arrive again. You get your hands together, maybe thinking you'll give a wave to the crowd or look over to your family's section. And then within seconds, there it is, you're finally introduced ... as Brian Scalabrine."


Ouch! I wonder what Brian Scalabrine has to say, er, rap about this?

And after the jump, check out the haggard-looking Mike Breen. (Hide the kids first, though.)


Mike Breen walks into a bar and orders a round of drinks for the house, a shot for himself and a shot for the bartender. After everyone takes their drink the bartender turns to the man and says, "That'll be $89." Breen looks at the bartender and says, "Sorry, I don't have any money." The bartender then proceeds to kick the living snot out of Breen and throws him to the curb.

The next day, Breen comes strolling back into the bar. He proceeds to order another round of drinks for the house, including Van Gundy, a shot for himself and a shot for the bartender. After everyone finishes their drink and the bartender says, "That'll be $96." Breen says, "Sorry, but I don't have any money." The bartender again proceeds to kick Breen's ass and throws him out.

The next day, Breen walks into the bar again! The bartender thinks to himself, "He can't possibly be THAT stupid. He has to have brought money this time!" Breen sits down and orders a round of drinks for the house and a shot for himself. The bartender asks, "What about my shot?" Breen looks at him and replies, "Sorry, but you're violent when you drink."

    That Breen impression must have been frightening on HD. Real scary.
    "Listen son, I always trusted you. But you, you turned away. Did not make sure this one bartender would not ask me for money."

    Look, the first rule of Fight Club is "Mike Breen don't talk about Fight Club."

    Skeets: Do you always make fun of someone who's had skin cancer removed? Mike Breen had skin cancer surgery. Didn't know he needed to explain it to you. Anybody who'd make fun of someone enduring one of the most difficult times of their life isn't being funny. Sick, maybe. Funny, no.

    Older_than_Moses: I had no idea skin cancer causes people to grow goatees.

    I've got a bunch of scars under my beard. Why else would I have one? Could never shave my head. Got in a train wreck and had my head stitched back together. Thank God for hair. Mike's had enough trauma, Dude. Ease up on him.

    heard about it on the Jim Rome show this morning since someone emailed in about his face. A columnist emailed Rome with confirmation that Breen had it removed.
