Worst Ball Don’t Lie Blog EVER
I hope our blog is never THIS BAD.
Seriously, these guys usually post good stuff, but this one made me wanna shove a chopstick in my ear. Such a promising title, so much potential, and then a complete dud. Thank god for comments or else this page would be a complete waste of cyberspace. And thanks to #6 for referencing “I Like Turtles.” Haven’t watched that one in a while. Let’s all enjoy it together….
This is What Happens When You Play Xbox 360
That’s weird… when I play xbox it’s always just some 12 year old in North Carolina calling me a pussy the whole time. Everything’s cooler in Japan.
Warriors Make Kings Look Good?
Sacramento media and Kings fans are getting delusional. The outlook is definitely bleak around these parts. Bill Bradley of the Sacramento Bee is clearly grasping at straws here, saying the Warriors’ mess makes the Kings look good.

That’s a bit of a stretch, Bill. While it’s no secret the W’s front office has been making questionable moves, it’s ridiculous to suggest that one should be thankful to be a Kings fan. For one, the W’s have a legitimate NBA roster. The Kings look more like a D-League team. Golden State has a fanbase, an arena, a coach, and could turn it around with a trade or two, or even their entire roster coming back healthy and gelling like they did during the We Believe era. The Kings, on the other hand, have a long, long way to go. This guy sums it up pretty well….
The Kings were last in the NBA this season in fan attendance at games. 30th out of 30.The Warriors were 9th out of 30, drawing more fans per game than teams like Boston, Phoenix, and Denver.— KingsFansBite
The more things unfold, the more the Kings are looking like the NBA version of Major League’s Cleveland Indians. Instead of a Vegas showgirl desperately trying to tank and move to Miami, we have some Vegas hotel owners who may as well be moving boxes to Sin City. I’m starting my script for “The Association”. Here’s my cast of characters…
Charlie Donovan – Geoff Petrie. The once highly-respected GM has been reduced to a meager budget and sub-par talent. No matter how much he tries to put together a competitive squad, the resources available leave him with little to no options.
Lou Brown – the Kings’ next coach. Whoever it is, it’ll be someone past their prime who can only sift through the excuses. It’s either a knee thing, or an emotional thing, or a psychological thing, or a HEART ATTAAACCKKKKK
Let me get back to you, will ya, Geoff? I got a guy on the other line asking about some white walls.
Roob Baker – Spencer Hawes. Young guy with some promise. Like Roob throwing lasers to second, but missing simple throw backs to the pitcher, Hawes can knock down the three, but… that’s about it.
Willie Mays Hayes – Donte Greene. Say hey! I’m a 2 guard in a power forward’s body.
Pedro Cerrano – Jason Thompson. Thompson want to dunk ball!
Hats for bats. Keep bats warm.
Rick Vaughn – Beno Udrih. Had a good season, got a contract, then got moved to the bullpen.
Roger Dorn – Shareef Abdur-Rahim. Hey guys, great news… Today, at 12:35 pm, I activated myself!
Harry Doyle – Jerry Reynolds. Remember, fans, Tuesday is Die Hard Night. Free admission for anyone who was actually alive the last time the Kings won the title.
Take Over Napear. I'm in the BAG
This Is Just Ridiculous….
While we’re waiting for Tony’s analysis of the Champions League Final today, just take a look at this.
Hong Man Choi Is Doin Work
Hong Man Choi Doin Work
I don’t know what the best part about this guy is….
A) His name
B) He’s a 7’2″ 350 lb Asian Beast
C) He beat the juice outta Jose Canseco
When I first checked out the grainy video of Jose Canseco’s MMA debut, I immediately assumed he was the bigger dude in the fight. He looked a little pale, and a little, umm, Asian….. What really tipped me off is he looked like he knew what he was doing. Boom… red flag.
So, needless to say, it didn’t take long to figure out who was who in this fight. Canseco was who we thought he was. Hong Man, on the other hand, is the new Yao Ming. What makes him better, though, is this big man is a RAPPER. Check this out………….
Pretty safe to say his opponent is not impressed. HOWEVER, one of the guys in his corner is bobbin his head! All I know is Dude is poised to dethrone Apollo Creed. With a little practice e.g his dance moves and lip-syncing skills, he could put together the best ring entrance in the history of combat sports.
Don’t say you weren’t warned!
The Kobe-Lebron Wet Dream
It’s no secret the NBA and its allies are praying for a Kobe-Lebron showdown in the Finals. I won’t lie, it’s a dream matchup that I too would love to see. BUT…. why is the NBA the only league that allows such public advances on its preferred matchups??? MLB and the NFL both sit back and wait and let the teams on the field decide. Last year we were force-fed Lakers-Celtics propaganda and that happened. Shouldn’t a league that has a reputation for possibly manipulating outcomes make an effort to hold back on this sort of stuff? Sure, it’s the advertisers who are driving this, but we all know where the league stands on it. Despite being an acclaimed Laker disliker – I don’t quite hate them – this is the first round of conference finals in a long time that I’ve been impartial to who wins each series. I love being able to sit back and enjoy playoff basketball without living and dying with the outcome. It’s great being able to watch Kobe, Lebron, Hedo, Carmelo, or the referees step up and take over a game down the stretch. However, I have a natural propensity to pull for the underdog. While Orlando and Denver may not be underdogs on the court, they most certainly are in the corporate world. (Side note: yet another puppet commercial runs as I type this)
So, unfortunately, my impartiality is quickly fading. I hope they can pull it off. Will they? OR, is the NBA in fact UNSTOPPABLE!
The Birth of Doin Work
Doin Work was conceived through, like all great ideas, a work e-mail thread. Every day, four or five of us would end up debating various sports topics, often including inane overanalyzation, pompous banter, and witty commentary.
In a recent discussion loosely about Bill Simmons, it ultimately led to discourse on the decline of the art of sports journalism. Too often it has been reduced to rumor-mongering and rants. Not to say Doin Work won’t include those – there will no doubt be plenty of rants. Our goal, though, is to present events or ideas that you have also seen (or not) and turn them into something far more significant than they actually are, for that, is the true art of sports journalism. Our opinions and views often change from day to day, so hopefully through this forum you will get an idea of how fickle our observations truly are. Ideally, our posts will include our ridiculous e-mail threads, which were the basis for this entire endeavor.
Please be sure to bookmark, link, comment, etc. on all that is Doin Work.
