Lifelong Lakers Fan – NBA Blog

You may be asking yourself: what the heck is this doing here? Well, ha-ha! All work and no play makes Karl a very dull boy

I have a lot of interests outside of business, and chief among those is "my" team – the Los Angeles Lakers. I've been a life-long fan. I love the Lakers in particular and the NBA in general. So, while it may not exactly "fit" the rest of this site, I say: so what? 

A good friend of mine told me I should blog on this subject, because I have a lot of knowledge and even more to say. Perhaps he just got sick and tired of hearing me go on about basketball. Regardless, here it is! 

This is an interesting experience for me, and I hope it will be interesting to you too, dear reader. I'd love to hear from other hard-core Laker fans – it would be nice to know I'm not simply talking to myself. 

Feel free to post your comments, and just bear in mind that while I don't necessarily expect you to agree with me (or others who may post), I do expect you to be civil. Out-and-out flames will be deleted, and the IPs of trolls will be banned. 

Otherwise, as Chickie-baby used to say: "No harm, no foul!" 

>>> Special note to any and all NBA suits and/or refs: the game would be a helluva lot better if you went back to the core values and philosophy of that simple statement! <<<

Current Season Entries

The 2008-2009 NBA season promises to be a interesting one. The West is going to be even tougher this year as teams have upgraded and improved across the board (with a few exceptions), and the Celtics are bound and determined to repeat.
