NBA Start of the Season<
Cleveland is 0-2 ! Wow. Boston 2-0 and Lakers 2-0 , big surprise there. New Orleans aka Cp3 needs some back up cause the Spurs just smashed them. I like Cp3's sense of humor, "We were supposed to go 82-0 but we knew it wasn't feasible." lol. Atlanta's Al Horford put up better numbers than Dwight Howard (only cause Superman didn't play 2 quarters). Both Florida Teams won. Kings Lost, big surprise there. Warriors lost, cause Morrow and Randolph didn't play at all. Thanks Nellie. Utah lost to Denver, Philly got smashed by 3's. mmmHmm.
Ah so the NBA started this past week. Great to have those games back. Dwyane Wade, hopefully will return with a stellar MVP performance season. He had a quiet 26-5-5 over the New York Knicks. Hopefully his shooting percentage will go up.
Hometown:
The Sacramento Kings look horrible, with or without their whole team, with or without their rookie, Tyreke Evans, with or without Francisco Garcia, with or without stellar performances from Jason Thompson, Spencer Hawes, and Kevin Martin. They lost to Okalahoma.
Other Hometown:
The Washington Wizards, the other supposed “hometown” city team is starting to look terrific. Gilbert Arenas looks back to his “hibachi” form, while the rest of the team seems to be upgraded with Mike Miller and Randy Foye. Injuries will be a part of their outcome.

Yes, I know, similar teams. Nellie needs to play Anthony Morrow cause I think he has the potential in being Most Improved Player. Yi Jianilian is also in that category. Hopefully, Courtney Lee wasn’t a bust cause he’s gonna get a lot of playing time in New Jersey. Travis Law was picked because one monster game. Troy Murphy was probably the worst 4th pick of a draft, EVER. Mario Chalmers better step up his game as a 2nd year player, oh did I say I like the Heat? And their back court. Derrick Rose is back for a better year, or at least I hope.

Hometown:
49ers look to beat the unbeaten Colts this weekend. Good luck with that and your new quarterback, Alex Smith. They did, however, look well last Sunday- Second half, against the Texans. But it wasn’t enough. The Crabtree looks like we shouldn’t have doubted him, nor should’ve held out on him. We should’ve paid him, maybe? We’ll soon find out if he was lucky last week, or if he’s really as good as he says. He looks kinda good though.
Raiders, you all need to go get a quarterback who wants to win. I think they should borrow Shaun Hill for a little bit, since their own QB, Jamarcus Russell, can’t even take blame for their losing. He only takes blame for the wins. Haha How homo.
Other Hometown:
My boy Joe Flacco, also looks stellar this season. Better than his rookie campaign (which was amazing). The Baltimore Ravens need to step up their game just a tad, just because they’ve been losing by hairs to great post season teams. They face Denver’s undefeated record this weekend, and are 3rd back in their division to the Bengals and Steelers.
Haha, I don’t even consider this a hometown team. They’re in the same boats as the Raiders. I never claimed Raiders either, but anyways. The Washington Redskins are such a big disappointment. I think they have extraordinary pieces like Santana Moss, Clinton Portis, and Merryweather. But something is not right. Jason Cambell > Demarcus Russell but they’re still struggling.
My boy Tom Brady looks to be getting that 16-1 form again. Hopefully he’ll do 7 TDS coming back from the Bye in next week (not this weekend, BYE).
