LeBron

LeBron James passed Michael Jordan on the all-time scoring list last night

BUT

the Lakers lost and they now have a record the same as the Wolves at 30-35.

Is LeBron an all-time great? Yes. Is he the best of all-time? Hardly.

He's always needed a huge starring cast.

And when he's on average teams, we see how average he is as well.

Towns Dominates

And the Wolves beat the 39-25 Thunder.

I still don't understand why home court means so much in basketball. If it's THAT big of an advantage, maybe it's not really a sport...

Twins

It's kind of sad really, the only news out of camp is that Zack Granite has been traded, and the pitcher we got for him was then immediately traded to Baltimore for $750,000 of international salary cap that we HAVE to spend in the next couple of months.

No Bryce Harper-type deals for the Twins I guess...

3 Straight Losses

The Wolves lost to the 26-37 Wizards last night.

sigh

Somethings just always stay the same.

Wolves Lose

That's two straight.

sigh

Twins 5-3

That puts them second in the Grapefruit League standings, just behind Bryce Harper and the Phillies.

Of course, what I just said means absolutely nothing. Starters go an inning or two. Most we have never heard of, and we're looking at all sorts of players, on both teams who are getting try-outs.

I haven't heard of any major injuries at this point, other than Sano's cut foot (that he got celebrating with his team during the Dominican Championship win.) He just needs time to heal.

I wish I was more excited about baseball in general, but watching marathon sessions of good movies and TV shows seems to be the norm nowadays. America's taste in entertainment is changing...

Harper 13 Years $330 Million

The Phillies think they got a steal. Harper will be 39 when his contract runs out. No opt out clause. A no trade clause. Commitment from BOTH sides.

Now it's time to start signing the guys worth less.

Everyone still has about a month.
