Around SBN: Knicks Beat Lakers With Familiar Strategy

* * * shameless self-promotion disclaimer * * *

If you'd like to augment your virtual game day experience, feel free to "ballhawk" with me via Twitter as I provide a semi-running commentary of the game from the streets of Waveland and sometimes Sheffield. My twitter ID is "Ballhawk_Ken" and the above link should take you to my twitter page.

Southeast winds tomorrow and a lot warmer so maybe there'll actually be some street homer activity to report. If not, I'll try to keep you amused with the daily trials and tribulations from "As The Waveland Turns"...

Nah, I love lefty power hitters...

what I hate is Lou’s obsession with alternating lefties and righties in the batting order. There’s only so many times I can run jog waddle back-n-forth between Waveland and Sheffield. Thankfully, Murphy’s is located conveniently between…

baseball is a game of outs......pop out, ground out, line out, pitch out, strike out, fly out, and Fox and Bud's favorite black out

So do they let you grab a cold one

almost like handing off a baton when you go from Sheffield back to Waveland?

Now that would be a cool video.

Sweet Lou for Mayor in '11.

Oh man, I never thought of that.

If you pull a muscle, you should definitely send Lou the bill. On the other hand, if you roll into (ahem) October in the best shape of your life, you have Lou to thank for it.

PS to all: I’m on Twitter, too. See my sig line.

I've committed to tweeting about the Cubs for the rest of the season. (Does that sound as ridiculous as I think it does?) Anyway, if you're on Twitter, you can follow me here.
