OK. I don’t usually throw non-sports related cartoons on the site, but, hey, every once in awhile never hurt anybody. This one is from the latest edition of the Guadalupe County Communicator in Santa Rosa, New Mexico. The town hosted a gathering of about 3,000 Bikers this weekend for a thing called the Great Smoke-Out featuring custom made motorcycles. So I combined the bikers, the recent passing of Dennis Hopper and the Cow-loving Coyotes of New Mexico and, wah-lah, here ya go.

One of the worst calls in the history of sports cost the USA a win in it’s match yesterday with Slovenia. Just like the missed call a few weeks ago by an umpire who cost a pitcher a perfect game, the referee at the World Cup negated a historic comeback by team USA after being down 2-0 in their 2nd game of the tournament. Ineptness robbed sports of another memorable moment.
I realize the use of real people to make judgment calls in any aspect of life is open to mistakes it’s a shame that it seems to steal pieces of history in the process. I’m reminded of the USSR-USA basketball fiasco during the 1972 Olympics that cost the US a gold medal. The whole thing stank of Politics. I think that same thing happened Friday against Slovenia. It’s unfortunate that at a time when more Americans are willing to embrace the World Cup that a call like the one on Friday kills whatever enthusiam they have managed to muster.

I don’t know how you feel but…

The NBA season drones on far too long. It’s the only sport for me that makes me feel like I’m working when I watch it. Other sports don’t do that. Even World Cup soccer which I’m actually enjoying, doesn’t make me as crabby as having to watch an average NBA game. Now, last night wasn’t your average NBA game. It was game 7 of the NBA finals. Both teams actually played defense which NEVER happens in the NBA. And if you exclude the time it looked more like a Rugby scrum it was actually entertaining. But, still. I’m soooo glad it’s over. How about you? Glad to see it go or want 7 more games?

Got a cartoon over on ESPN by 9 or 10 EST. I’ll let you know when it posts. Have a great weekend!

Today’s View From the Bull Pen

The odds aren't good. Simply put waiting for an NBA player to make a free throw is a bit like waiting for the Cubs to win the World Series. It just ain't gonna happen. At least in our lifetimes. It reminds me of one of my favorite stories. Legendary basketball coach Don Haskins, all 250 plus pounds of him, had a player who apparently thought a bit highly of himself and didn't find his deficiency at the free throw line to be that big of a deal. Haskins challenged him to a free throw contest and let the kid go first. The kid hit a couple out of 10 or so and proudly handed old man Haskins the ball. After the coach hit his 100th in a row without a miss the kid learned his lesson. Don't argue with the Bear. And learn to shoot free throws.

There isn't a way to leave comments in the Bull Pen (that I've found yet) so please feel free to leave your comments under the latest cartoon that I post.
