Duran's on Menaul?  [ Tue Jan 29 2013 10:14 AM ]

Maybe?

Not Just Playoffs  [ Tue Jan 15 2013 10:42 AM ]

There have been 8 teams to come back from a 3-1 deficit to win a playoff series going into the 2009 season. The following teams are listed below. Teams in bold had home court advantage.

1968 - Boston Celtics over Philadelphia 76ers (Eastern Conference Finals)1970 - Los Angeles Lakers over Phoenix Suns (Western Conference Finals)1979 - Washington Bullets over San Antonio Spurs (Eastern Conference Finals)1981 - Boston Celtics over Philadelphia 76ers (Eastern Conference Finals)1995 - Houston Rockets over Phoenix Suns (Western Conference Semifinals)1997 - Miami Heat over New York Knicks (Eastern Conference Semifinals)2003 - Detroit Pistons over Orlando Magic (Eastern Conference First Round)2006 - Phoenix Suns over Los Angeles Lakers (Western Conference First Round)

The piece read that no team has done it in the NBA Finals. Definitely has happened in the Playoffs, though, as your evidence above shows.

The Lobos will play on Sunday at 7 PM in the second round of the NCAA Tournament against the winner of the Lafayette/Virginia game.

It's definitely a mistake to link to that article and summarize it as "Qadafi will prevail" when the main point seems to be that, ultimately, he will not.

Add my voice to the praise, but also to commend Devin's review. Great job getting into the specifics without spoiling anything. I thought it was well-done and definitely commands a repeat viewing.

Update  [ Wed Jun 23 2010 3:31 PM ]

We'll be playing Ghana on Saturday!

Kelly's?  [ Fri Jun 11 2010 5:47 PM ]

I've called around a few places, and there don't seem to be too many fantastic options, but Kelly's gave me the great answer that they open at 8, and will be showing the matches that are on. However, they won't be serving beer until 11 AM. Lastly, I do remember an article from the Alibi a while ago talking about a market in the South Valley where there's a fresh deli shop (outdoors?) that might be a fantastic place to watch. But I have no info on that, and a quick Alibi web search didn't turn anything up. Hope this helps.
