A Nod to Sir Chauncey

Billups

Easily one of my favorite athletes to play in Denver ever. And here’s one of my very favorite cartoons about him. It was a long day. I was scheduled for a root canal late this afternoon and it turned out it wasn’t so late. I missed the appointment. The Tribune called and need a cartoon for tomorrow (yeah, they’re using me more) and I thought we all needed a Chauncy break. Teh Tribune one will probably be my cartoon for Wednesday morning.

A Drew Litton Calendar is Coming!

A Drew Litton Calendar is Coming
We’ve begun production on the first ever Drew Litton wall calendars. My wife, Marcia, is helping input the events and I’m working on choosing the images. We’re doing a super cool calendar with dates for all of the major sports events of 2010 plus cartoons for every month. We weren’t able to get the daily desk calendars done. I just don’t have the financial resources right now to make that happen. This calendar is really an experiment. If it goes well then we will start to do a lot more merchandise in 2010 including a new book. So you can help me out by telling all your friends about the Drew Litton calendar (not to mention this blog). The more people who know about it the better. I’m also exploring doing a few Christmas Craft shows but I’m not sure about that yet. If any one has any ideas about that, I’m all ears. If there is any other merchandise you would like to see made available for this Holiday season feel free to let me know. You might remember a poll we ran back in September. It was a big help.

Bird’s Nest

birdmancash
Thank Goodness. There for a while I thought the Nuggets had lost there ever loving minds. I thought we had a bunch of Bird Brains on our hands. But finally somebody came to their senses, gave Chris Anderson a well deserved raise, and allowed Nuggets fans to breathe a sigh of relief.

Last Day of this weeks caption contest. Get those entries in by 6 p.m.

I’m not sure If I’ll get in another Joe Sakic cartoon or not. I’ll see what my schedule is like and see if I can get one in.

Nuggets Don’t Love L.A.

sternreffing

Haven’t I seen that guy before?
That Referee looked familiar. Wait a minute…
The least David Stern could have done was wear a disguise. Remember you heard this here first…If the series goes to 7 games don’t be surprised to see Jack Nicholson starring in a new role..as an NBA Referee. Hey, it could happen.

The NBA finals: Is somebody a little on edge?

stern

Never let ‘em see ya sweat
Or so the story goes. But you better believe David Stern is feeling a little nervous about now. His “Dream Team” match-up of Kobe vs. LeBron is about to go up in smoke. We’ll know pretty soon if the fix is on if suddenly the Cavs come back and Kobe finds a teammate to help him do anything on the court. Me? I’m pulling for the big upsets. It’s so much more fun that way.

Lakers looked pooped!

birdpoop

I like this internet thing
This is one of those cartoons that might not have made it in print, but here, well the time was just right for this gag. The Nuggets dominated game 4 of the Western Conference Finals and evened the series. The Nuggets were ferocious on the boards all night. The difference between these two teams and the reason why I think the Nuggets will win this thing. The Bench. The Lakers simply don’t have one. The Birdman was his usually electric self, flying often into the rafters for rebounds and causing chaos with those flailing arms…uh…wings of his. It’s a sight to behold ain’t it? Go ahead Nuggets fans…Tell me all about it. Leave your comments below…

Steve Scores Contest Win!

stevecaption-winner

Steve From Summit Graphic Studios Scores Upset!
We had great response this week with 127 entries and I have to tell you it was tough. We really could have had 10 winners at least. This weeks runner ups are:
Hazardous_T said:
“Don’t look now but I think Vince McMahon is dressed up as a ref…”
and
Phil said:
“Yes Mello, Kobe IS your father.”

Three quick notes:
First I’m running behind on my mailings, so forgive me. I’ll be getting them out tomorrow.
Next Our winners need to e-mail their address, t-shirt size and their preference for sketches to me at sportoonz@gmail.com.
and Last Several of you caught my mistake on the Birdman’s number. Player numbers and I have had a rough history. I can’t tell you how many times I put Kobe in a number 8 jersey (his old number) only to have one of our copy editors catch it. (He was a Lakers fan). My bad. I fixed it in this copy. In golf they call that a Mulligan. have a great weekend. Wow Nuggets!!

Lakers vs. Nuggets: The Police Report

nuggetsrobbed

Nuggets report stolen game.
The Nuggets had the Lakers right where they wanted them. Against the ropes, down for the count and they let ‘em up just long enough to give ‘em life. This puts the Nuggets in a pressure cooker on Thursday night. They know they have to get one back. It won’t be easy, but the Nuggets did show that the Lakers are in for a tussle. Thank goodness for the WWE afterall.

Don’t forget the Caption contest
Great entries so far. I hope you guys have as much fun writing them as I do reading them. I can tell this week it’s going to be tough to pick a winner.
So, what do you all think of game one? Observations? Coaching advice? Kidnap Kobe? Let me know!
