Lebron is gone, but Cleveland still has something left. Not really.

LeBron is gone and Cleveland is left with, well, not much. But they still have their health. Right. Any time I can get the words “Funny Farm” in a cartoon it’s a good day.

Excited to hear the Ubaldo will start in the All-Star game. Very well deserved. It’s going to be a blast when the Rockies get back from the break. Hopefully the momentum they have gathered will carry over. The great thing is it gives me something to draw about until August when the whole state of Colorado begins the “Tebow Watch”. I was around for the “Elway Watch” when TV crews followed him during his first Broncos training camp to the barbershop to get a haircut. I’m hoping we’ve grown a bit more sophisticated since then.

Good Morning from Omaha,
the all star game is another reason to leave the television off on a tuesday night.
I really hope Ubaldo put on a good show, tonight. He will do the Rockies and Denver proud.
Training camps open soon. Like you I won’t need a breath by breath recollection of Tebow at practice.
Bit it can not start soon enough.
Strive for excellence, nothing but your best.
Gene

“I’m hoping we’ve grown a bit more sophisticated since then.”
Lol Drew, that is one of your funniest lines ever! I remember having to sneak off to get a haircut and the media was flabergasted (may I say flabbergasted in your comments?) when the spotted him without those golden locks. I am afraid that the media has learned their lesson, and they will keep an eagle eye, or Tebow eye, on young Timmy so that lack of news coverage will not happen to them again!

I was headed to the funny farm if I had to listen to any more LeBron reports. Maybe in the Tebow case it will be a blessing to live in Oregon where there is a dirth of sports reporting………

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.
