They're nice shoes, but they're still just shoes

Why do some people put Nike Swoosh stickers on the back windows of their cars? What's more, why do some people, obviously not sponsored by Nike, get the Swoosh permanently tattooed on their flesh? I mean, I wear Nike stuff, I like Nike stuff, but I also like Kraft Cheese & Macaroni yet I don't feel compelled to make any perpetual public proclamations about either.

Speaking of odd things to stick on your rear windshield, what is with the "In Loving Memory of ______" stickers? What "in loving memory?" Driving? Are they saying that their every mile is driven in loving memory of the person? What about when they are cutting someone off or rolling through a Wendy's drive-thru? Is that also intended as a tribute? Is this the best way to pay respects to the dead? I am sure I have mentioned this before and I am sure I will do it again next time I see one.

Dammit it is a beautiful day outside. Really really torturously nice. I had no interest in working anyway, but a day like this just adds insult to injury.

Could God himself stop Steve Nash from getting a layup whenever he wanted?

Has Aaron Sele sold his soul? How else can you explain his success this season?

Okay, what if Steve Nash was guarded by Mike Ditka?

Ditka could not stop him without fouling...but I can promise you this: Nash would never walk again.
