You’ve been competitive--you've been rooting for the Warriors. Don't even lie. You know you have been.

I’d like to point out to the Californians that everyone in the state earns at least the minimum wage—servers, bartenders, baristas, everyone.

In California, everyone gets at least minimum wage, regardless of the industry--there is none of this “tipped wage” bs.  And yet, we are still expected to tip 20%.  I keep asking myself, “why?”

I do understand that.  However, it’s happened so many times, by so many players in so many sports, that by now, I would figure that they’d understand by now.  Apparently they don’t.  

One of our local anthems is “game recognize game in the Bay, man” (shout out JT the Bigga Figga).  If anyone hates on Lebron here, it’s simply because we faced him 4 straight times in the Finals. That’s natural. But if he wanted to come here, there’d be a line down the block for his jersey.

Japan.

Lebron is possibly the greatest player of all time.  We’d love to have him in the Bay.  

If this is how they thank Korea, imagine if Korea lost to Germany, eliminating Mexico. 

If Mexico won, Korea would have advanced by winning 2-0.  

Do some math.  If Mexico won, Korea would have advanced with their scoreline.  This isn’t hard.  

Two steps forward, three steps back due to other countries’ affairs we have no control over. Korean History 101.

Oh come on.  Put away the tissues and go out and get some Korean BBQ and drink some soju tonight in honor of the team that saved yours.  

Mexico is lucky to advance because they dug themselves in a hole they couldn’t get out of without a long ass rope from Korea.  Luckily for Mexico, Korea happened to one wrapped around Germany’s neck.  

Nope.  Korea saved Mexico.  

For my money, I would rather Korea go out like this—taking down a giant and eliminating the defending champions--than to lose in the next round. Today was glorious. So proud of my boys.

Ricardo Reyes says hello:

NBA, take note.  

You’ve seen Kane get wrestled down and hog-tied in the box, right?  Everyone saw.  

Sideshows are a Bay Area thing.  Apparently, like Warrior fandom, sideshows have been adopted down south.  

You know.
