Putting on my 45 jersey

Good morning world! I was just browsing the internet today, and I came across this blog and thought it was pretty cool. I read all the posts, watching the videos, and then realized it was mine but I forgot since I hadn't posted in a month. The worst thing that you can do as a blog writer is be inconsistent. Followers don't like seeing the same thing for weeks on end, so I am ONCE AGAIN going to try to get back into it and stay into it.

The latest Cavs' development involved signing Anthony Parker from the Raptors to a short-term deal a few days ago. I, personally, am feeling pretty good about this pickup. He is a 6'6" two guard who can provide some of the perimeter defense that killed us in the playoffs. But I really do think that that problem was addressed more so when we traded for Shaq. Picking him up indirectly meant that we will not have to double team in the post anymore. This will result in our guards being able to stay out on their assignments outside, so even a small defender like Delonte will be able to stay close to their man.

I think the bigger upside to picking up Parker is obtaining another player who is past their prime. I mean, we lost Ben Wallace and Joe Smith this offseason, so we needed to pick up another potential bust who is coming to Cleveland's own Sunny Hills Retirement Home. Think about it... we could potentially make the all-time least useful veteran team with our history: David Wesley, Eric Snow, Lorenzen Wright, Joe Smith, Ben Wallace, and so on. Now we've added 37 year old O'Neal and 34 year old Parker. If they stay healthy and get playing time then great! But the better chance is that one or both get injured. Don't get me wrong, I'm as excited as any other optimistic Cleveland fan, I'm just realistic enough to know not to put all my excitement into one season.

I know this post isn't much, but I'm getting back into it. It's a beautiful day, I'm in a great mood. Hope everyone has a great day; I'll leave you with this dunk contest video:



And here is a live video of my recently rediscovered song of the day. Even if you don't like the Chili Peppers, watch the video and check out the Will Ferrell lookalike on the drums. Makes the whole thing seem like an SNL skit:
