The Aftermath

well its been 2 days since the Jazz got beat out of the playoffs.... and in those 2 days i have posted probably 15-20 comments on youtube against lakers fans... Created my own facebook, The NBA is a Dictatorship, group. And hung up my D Will jersey for a few more months... Looking back it makes me realize just how pathetic i am. Im on the 3rd day since then and i still hate the referees. I still wont watch ESPN and yesterday i would have shot this Mexican wearing a Kobe jersey if i would have had a gun. But things could be alot worse.. I could be Jethrow and have no team loyalty at all, I could hop from player to player and team to team... What ever would make me look cooler. But i dont! I have my teams that i will stick with till the bitter end. I once herd a great friend talking to a Jazz fan when she said... "do you like the lakers?" he said he liked them had nothing aginst them.. then she said possible the most profound statement i have ever herd in the sports world, she said "then you are not a true Jazz fan!!" Hate us or not there is a reason we had the best home record in the NBA... Its not that we are bad fans, or disrespectful. Its the fact everyone hates us.. cause they wish they had fans like us. We are the cream of the crop, the best there are. And most of us, jethrow being a exception, are true fans and will never leave.

There is always next year! Sooner or later the Lakers will have to pull their own weight and not depend on the officiating to win it for them... Sooner or later the Utah Jazz will have respect! And sooner or later I will be going to watch the NBA finals to watch the Utah Jazz win the title.

Jazz 2 - Lakers 2

So today was pretty much a amazing day!! Yes it was mothers day! and i did go see my mom! i do love her, but that had nothing to do with my day... Today i just went to the Utah Jazz - LA Lakers game 4 where the jazz beat the Lakers... Not only did i whitness one of the best games of the year but i did so from the 17th row of the lower bowl! When i bought the tickets i had a big of buyers remorse.... But after today I would have spent twice as much... i was kinny corner from the bucket... I was right under when Ronnie Price made one of the best blocks in the game... And witnessed the Turiaf foul right in front of my face that let to his ejection... I would have to say that it was by far the best game i had ever been to.. Then to hear the Lakers make up excuses cause their egos were hurt! It was amazing!

Top news: "Teams stop beating off constantly"

Ok It is official!! As of .... 48min and26 seconds ago, off constantly officially had its first win of the season... You should have been there it was crazy! Once the announcer announced over the mic; "thats the ball game" the fans went CRAZY!! rushing the field. throwing their beers on the other team! it was awesome. Then when the fireworks went off and the city started rioting it was great! i think i saw 3... No there were 4....... Ok its official 4 police cars flipped over and on fire... Riley, having the largest contract on the team offered to pay for one of them. That is the kind of non selfish play that got us the first win of the season.... Next week we shoot for win #2!!!

OK its started!! I have had this blog for awhile but have refused to fall into the growing trend! I just didn't want to... But after reading a few of my friends blogs it was interesting and fun... Being borderline wanting to get into the trend, i didn't know what to write about. I mean the very first blog entry on your blog has to me the best.. it has to be epidemic, or your audience will not return.... Lacking the plot needed for a good blog entry I put it on hold....... But then tonight the most amazing thing happened to me that i had to write about somewhere.... And thats where Turpy's Blog begins...

Today was a less then exciting Sunday for me. First off my room mate Chris moved out. Brendon is in Idaho and everyone is moving home or out this weekend... So it was pretty boring. around 2:00pm i realized that i did not have any food to eat.. I looked all through my cupboards the only thing i had that was digestible to the stomach was easy mac. So not wanting to break the sabot even though i didn't even go to church I ate that. 7 hours later i was dead hungry... Now i know that the general population does not like to shop on Sunday for one reason or another. And i agree i prefer to do my shopping before or after the sabbath! But there i was about to curl in a ball of pain cause my inner intestines were being eatin due to the lack of solids in my stomach. Some may stick the pain out till the next day.... And if that is you, you are a better man than I. At the first sign of pain i was in the car runnin to walmart. Now for anyone that may know me, you will know that i despise walmart. especially the Orem Walmart (or should i say the mercado mexicano, but that is a subject i will have to hit on another day) But there is one good thing about them... They have these home made pizzas that you take home and bake for $5! That are amazing... But i usually don't go cause its not worth the 45 min lines, the stupid person in line that always seems to mess up and take forever. Or the automatic check out machines that after every item you scan you have to wait for assistance. but i caved... waking in expecting it to be full of Surenos and their kids running all over the place... (which it was) i got my pizza and prepared for the check out likes.. I was going to go and scope out who was in line. who looked technology savvy enough to work the machines.. When i got over there i looked and the 3rd from the right self check out stand.... WAS EMPTY. I didn't know what to do! But not only was it open.. I scanned 2 items and not one needed assistance. I was amazed! My whole life since then has changed.. If that was possible for me to do.. Then anything is possible
