had to laugh when a friend told me this . . . USC did not allow on campus parking for people that went to the laker celebration.


JAJAJAJAJAJAAJA


i find this so funny because, well . . . raider fans were allowed to park on campus, and laker fans aren't. apparently (in the eyes of USC) laker fans are worse than raider fans. that being said, i think it was a good idea on the part of USC. imagine how much they would have had to ramp up police and security to keep the scumbag cholos form acting like the nacos that they are. my first year at USC was the raiders last year there, and i still remember every student hurrying to get their car out of the structures before the raider fans would arrive, otherwise your car would get vandalized or broken into

I just heard a classic Chick line

This championship is in the ice box because the refridgerator can't hold it!!!


The parade went mostly trouble free. Here in OC I've seen too many laker flags to count. Only the Lakers can unite LA, OC and San Diego

Can't take credit for that one...it's someone else's masterpiece.

This was Gasol's title and Until Kobe wins without Pau Gasol, he is still in Shaq's shadow.


in my gloating i forgot to rub it in to you also... fuck you ranger!!!!!!! go lakers! boston sucks!

i was at the parade... good times today...well i was the stadium...hot as hell but well worth it. got a HUGE let's go lakers going, a huge MVP for the real mvp, got me a kobe puppet poster, got a huge boo for lebron, we also got a huge boston sucks chant, we had a 90k wave going, and at the end kobe led the entire crowd in a "1, 2, 3, RING!" chant...

well worth the heat

early enough to see the spectacle...

there were more horns then i would've liked... but that's not a chivas thing, it's a mexican/south african (apparently) thing... you could just as easily call it the Americaseum ... most mexican/laker/dodger fans probably aren't chivas fans... they are probably mexican fans yes, but not chivas fans.

go lakers! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!


one more cookie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

yea!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


WOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Aww, it was nothing...

Sure thing.

lollercoaster

Much to the delight of some high-powered onlookers, Lakers great Kobe Bryant confronted Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa at the start of last week’s jam-packed Lakers victory parade and added a whole new dimension to the day’s festivities. According to mesmerized eyewitness accounts, this is what happened: The City Council members were told to arrive at the parade staging area at 10 a.m. last Wednesday so they could get on the bus and ride in the parade. They boarded the bus at 10:30 a.m. and were still waiting to roll at 11 a.m. The council members, as well as the general public, became antsy and demanded to know what was the hold up and why was it taking so long to get the parade under way. (Some of the more fair-skinned council members were particularly annoyed, sitting in the sun, as they were.)

The cause of the hold-up was occurring adjacent to the locker room, where Kobe was refusing to ride on the City Council bus because the mayor was to ride on it. At the same time, the mayor, the consummate spotlight thief, was refusing to get on the City Council bus unless he got on with Kobe. Kobe loudly denounced the mayor in phrases that started with “I don’t like the …” and ended with “I’m not going to let him pimp my popularity!”

The impasse ended and the parade started after Kobe got on the team bus and the mayor was sneaked onto the same bus behind Kobe’s back by a couple of his teammates. As the team bus approached Georgia Street, it was greeted by about 100 city workers who had labored throughout the previous day and night preparing the Coliseum for the rally. The bus stopped in front of them and the hard-working crew went ballistic for the team and shouted and cheered like they’d lost their minds. Then the mayor popped up from among the players and waved to the group, which suddenly turned silent, as if a spigot had been turned off. They say the effect was quite chilling. And these were all city employees, who probably know the mayor better than we do.

Then, people in the Coliseum who knew nothing about the outside bus dust-up and the Georgia Street snub, had their own tale to tell: They say the mayor introduced the members of the team and after he introduced Kobe, he extended his hand for the customary shake and Kobe strode right past him ignoring the outstretched hand. One elected official said the snub was clearly visible to everybody. “I didn’t understand it when I saw it, but after hearing about what happened with the bus, I understand it now,” the official said. So, is it sports or is it politics? In this city, it’s obviously one and the same.


“I’m not going to let him pimp my popularity!” may be my new favorite quote ever.

I stoppd by the Adidas outlet store in Cabazon today and found a fuckload of Lakers Championship crap on deep discount.

I almost took a picture of it but in the end couldn't be bothered.

Hey guys, I found the complex computer room down here in SD...so Buck, while your there hook a brother up!!! I'll pay you on Saturday! They don't have shit down here and it's pretty frustrating!!!

Anyways, the news today is Kobe is not opting out so that Lamar and Trevor can have their day in the spotlight...that just warms my heart!!! Lakers 'til I die!!!

I look forward to several more championships thanks to Kobe (finally) doing the right thing and letting his teammates get signed first...his generosity will be rewarded by Mr. Buss with a nice extension later. Not that he has really changed (he just wanted a winning team), but this is a guy who has grown up and become more mature right before our eyes and truly cares about this team. Kobe will retire as a Laker and become one the all-time Laker greats along side the rest!

:cool:

ESPN is reporting that Ariza is talking to Cleveland, because the Lakers are only offering the mid-level exception. The stupid thing is that Cleveland can only offer the same. He'd better come back down to earth and realize that he only averaged like 9 and 4 during the regular season. Yes, he averaged more during the playoffs, but he's a role player at best.
