When did the Lakers become better than the Suns?




It's happened. I really don't know how, or when...but it's happened.

I have been an avid Suns fan for the past 17 years of my life. Pretty much as far back as I can remember I have been rooting for the Phoenix Suns, and hence HATING the L.A. Fakers er, Lakers. But last night I saw something that I haven't seen in a very long time, the Lakers were better than the Suns. Now this is not to say that the Suns haven't lost to the Lakers in years past, they have, just not like this. Last night I saw two things.

1. The Lakers were better than the Suns
and
2. The Lakers knew they were better than the suns.

The second part of this conundrum is far scarier than the first. The fact that the Lakers have confidently beat the Suns 3/4 games in the regular season speaks volumes for their confidence going into the playoffs-where our paths will most likely cross again.

Now being that I am a Suns fan, I am confident that we will regroup and come out strong the rest of the season. I just saw some stuff last night that bothered me.

Foo Fighters



I have been a fan of the Foo Fighters ever since I bought one of their first albums, "The Colour and the Shape". Damn, I love that album. It has a great mix of hard alternative, and great lyrical content. My personal favorite, I think it's number 11, is Everlong. What a great song! Anyway, that was about 10 years ago and the Foo has since gone switchfoot. Now they seam to be about politics than the rock itself. That is not necessarily a bad thing, just different.

Anyway, if you are looking for Foo Fighter tickets, look here

The perfect gift for Valentines Day



If you are looking for the perfect gift for Valentines Day, I have just the thing. This may seem like an obvious Valentines Day gift, but trust me it will work everytime. Find out what concert or sporting event your significant other has been wanting to attend, and then buy two tickets to the event. A good site to buy tickets online is here.

Do this, and it will be the best Valentines Day ever!

TicketMaster buys TicketsNow



A couple days ago, ticketmaster, the primary ticket giant, acquired ticketsnow. TicketsNow is a huge player in the secondary market, and they are second only to StubHub in total revenue.

Many speculate that this merger spells the end for all ticket brokers. Many believe that ticketmasters intent is to squeeze ticket brokers and ticket broker websites out of the industry. Ticketmaster says that they will share future revenue with venues, promoters, and other and brokers. I wouldn't hold my breath. Ticketmaster has never been number one on anybody's Christmas list. In fact I am pretty sure that the fat man himself gave them a big lump of coal this past holiday. They don't play nice, and this acquisition, while nice for TicketsNow, does nothing but make all the little brokers out there squirm and rethink their strategy.

Britney Spears continues radical behavior






Britney Spears was taken away in an ambulance Thursday night from her Hollywood home after a nearly three-hour custody standoff with police over her two sons. Spears was released from Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in L.A. just 14 minutes after she arrived. Spears appeared to be under the influence of drugs and/or alcohol.

All I can say is: this is just another log in the flame.

Britney has spent the past few years destroying her squeaky clean pop icon image that she established in the late nineties. Since 2002, it has been nothing but a full out freak show. After marrying Federline, popping out two kids, shaving her head, detox, several auto accidents, public intoxication, indecent exposure, crappy music, and running over a photographers foot - nothing I hear surprises me about this woman!
