Dirk Nowitzki leading a 15 point comeback against the heat with only six minutes left in game 2 of the NBA finals. I'm not a big fan of basketball and will admit I did not watch any of this game but I can respect the significance and difficulty of this comeback so I'll concede BMOD honours to it. Especially considering it came against the team I hate most in basketball along with everyone outside of Miami. I did watch the highlights and the part of the game I enjoyed most was Dirk making Bosh look like an idiot several times in the last few minutes of the game, including his drive with 3 seconds left to score the winning bucket. Out of the 'Big 3' I'd definitely say Bosh is the most annoying and insignificant player but fills the role of the 'group loser' quite nicely (George in Seinfeld for instance... or was it Elaine? Maybe Turtle from Entourage is the better example). The 'group loser' is essentially that guy who adds nothing and you only notice when he screws up big, like Bosh did last night. Occasionally they have one big day and ride that glory forever (Bosh in game 3 vs. Chicago last series) but for the most part they don't do much. He is paid quite handsomely though to fill this role so I'm sure he has no complaints. However, with the impending NBA lockout, which will surely bring a cutback to players salaries and a lower cap Bosh will likely be banished from Miami next season in order for the team to keep Lebron and Dwayne Wade. I think Milwaukee would be a nice destination and serve him right for the bulls$!# he pulled on Toronto during his last season. The only drawback to that is he'll incrase his already annoying tweets by 200% in order to try and stay relevant.
In other news. I will have to concede that 'Joey Bats' is the proper nickname for Jose Bautista and I'm all for it after seeing this promotion. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4lohgU46mRA
Big move by MLB digging up Bobby Bacallieri and Johnny Sacs brothe rin law from the Sopranos to do this promotion.
