RIP Sly Stone. I loved that dude's music so this is a biggie. COPD is a terrible way to go. I had an uncle that died of it and for the last year or so of his life, he "slept" in a chair.
Has there ever been a team as effective at extreme pressure on the other team's puck handler in all zones of the rink? It's just crazy. If you keep the puck on your stick for more than half a second, you're getting basically smothered and your pass will be a very difficult one to make.
At no time did the Indiana Pacers have a lead over the OKC Thunder in last night's game until 0.3 seconds left in the game. And it's not like OKC had just a 3 point lead the whole game. No, they were up anywhere from 9 to 15 points all through the 3rd quarter. Indy even had 25 freakin turnovers!
Springsteen's Born in the USA was released on this date in 1984. As I'm finding out this morning, this entire album holds up incredibly well after all these years.
