Drive-By Update

Hey guys.

Nope, I’m not dead. I’m not employed yet, either.

Thankfully, I’ve got a roommate that is working, so I have the luxury of a place to stay and reliable transportation. Dear Economy; you do not scare me. I grew up in a state that’s been in a perpetual recession since 1987. This too shall pass.

But anyway. Thumbnail update on my guys.

After some truly disgusting losses – I haven’t even looked at Basketbawful’s take on the Thunder game, and I have no intention of ever doing so, ever – The Boss comes out with some choice words. And the Mavs responded. Ho boy, they responded. My heart lay panting on the floor for most of the game.

One hopes the effect sticks. The leadership corps of the team has had choice words regarding effort and heart throughout this season. It’s got to be different when it comes from the guy who signs the paychecks. Because if that’s not enough of a fire under the balls, I have a hard time imagining what would work. A rebuke from God? Please it doesn’t come to that.

Hornets tonight. Kick ass, boys.
