The best move the Lakers could make now is to sit LeBron, go into full-blown tank mode... then trade him to New Orleans for AD and Jrue Holliday, or possibly AD and Julius Randle. Improve their draft position, get two great young players, and have cap room left to sign Kevin Durant or Kawhi Leonard.

Yeah but at least Trey Young didn’t throw an inbounds pass off the wrong side of the backboard. Playoff intensity indeed....

The Lakers would be better off adding Alan Iverson. They already have all the wings who can’t guard anybody they need, and I bet Iverson can still shoot free throws better than anybody on the current Lakers roster.

Another way of looking at it is that Mick’s oldest child is 17 years older than Mick’s current girlfriend, with whom he has a three-year-old child. He and Keith are 75, Charlie Watts is pushing 80... and they’re starting another US tour in a few weeks, including a performance here in Louisiana at the New Orleans…

Cool! I work at Yellowstone National Park, where it was about 20 below (F) this morning. I guess I just assumed Canadian winters were even worse.

Considering what Canadian winter is like I think you should have a holiday every other week from November till May. Thanks for the clarification!

The fact that there is an actual holiday called Family Day in Canada is pretty amazing.

They should get the exact same treatment that the French Vichy collaborators got for, and for the exact same reasons.

Trump vs Biden will turn into the political equivalent of two senile grandpas wrestling on the lawn over whose alma mater has better ‘spirit’ while the rest of the neighborhood shakes their heads in disgust and then goes home for some serious drinking.

Well, actually it DOES matter how (all those qualities you named, plus senile and pathologically narcissistic) you are. Because those are exactly the ‘qualities’ that got him elected.

A couple choruses of Kumbayah should do the trick.

It’s very entertaining to me that Murdoch-- who married Mick Jagger’s ex-wife and acquired one of Mick’s daughters as a stepchild-- has quietly begun supporting, at least financially, a move to finally get the Equal Rights Amendment ratified. Supposedly this is the result of Lizzie Jagger’s influence/nagging, and the…

It’s definitely no “Cat Ballou”.

Not me. Because I was born under a wandering star.

Consultants... people who get paid to tell other people how to do stuff they’re unwilling or unable to actually do themselves, then cash the check and move on before anyone gets to see whether their ideas will actually work. Yep, that’s exactly what the Democrats need more of again this year.

One day someone will write a movie where he and Joaquin Phoenix transform into each other.

To say “I’m old” is describing myself as an individual. Saying “I’m an old” is describing myself as a member of a group. (Can you tell that both of my parents were English professors?)

They’re going to be here in Louisiana at Jazzfest in a few weeks to kick off their latest tour, so yeah I’m pretty sure they’re still alive.

Have seen them 41 times starting with the Hyde Park memorial for Brian Jones in 1969. To this day hearing the cowbell intro at the beginning of ‘Honky Tonk Women’ is a better rush than any other piece of music I’ve ever heard. There might be more technically proficient musicians out there, but nobody embodies…
