On this grind for nothing

Alright, so the Cavs were a monumental bust in the Finals, and in the process they unwittingly subjected the nation to a million agonizing "blow up the whole damn NBA" and "Eeeeee EvaTonyOMG!!!" conversations ... plus my exuberant "prediction" of Cavs-in-6 turned out to be exactly as misguided as we all suspected. Sorry about all that.

This is getting to be something of a theme around here -- Ohio team makes an appearance in their sport's Final(s), I get halfway excited and brag to the coworkers (or blog to the skillets) about it, said team suffers a horrendous and dispiriting loss ...

But I'm fine with it this time. Really, I am*. I mean: sometimes it's just as much fun to be the bridesmaid, right? You get to wear one of those swell seafoam (or coral!) dresses and everything ...

Alright, fine: hate hate HATE! You happy now?

(Because I feel a little bit better, actually. Man, that video is wack!)

Wilbon: "Was this ok with you?"
K: "I'm just upset she didn't wrap her legs around Tony KORNHEISER!"
W: "You know, Eva asked if she could come on this show."
T: "What did you tell her?"
W: "Sure! Come do 'Five Good Minutes'!"
T: "Five good minutes? I'd give her SEVEN good minutes!"

As someone once said: I know comedy, and THAT's comedy!
