    Have you ever noticed that when the Laker's win a game on NBC or any other night, their in every sports headlines from east to west coast. But when they get beat you have to go searching for updates? I know everyone's tired of talking about the Laker's, but I just couldn't help but notice, how much favoritism there is in the NBA!!!

    He's right. The same thing applies to Sacramento and (oh f*ck no) Utah. NBC loves those teams.

    Does anyone know why the media loves the Utah Jazz? It just doesn't make sense to me. They're old, they play a boring style, and they're all dirty players.

    Did anyone watch the Sacramento-Utah game the other day on NBC? I usually like Bill Walton, but this really irked me. Even when the Jazz were down ten to the Webber-less Kings, all he could talk about was the brilliance of the Jazz. He just went on and on about the Jazz's "crisp" passing and "amazing longevity". SHUT THE HELL UP! If the Jazz are down ten to a team without their 25-12 superstar, please stop praising them! Of course the Jazz won, but only by four. That isn't saying much to me.

    Ugh. I turned that game off once I realized the two biggest floppers and dirtiest players were going head to head (Divac and Karla). I was still for the Kings, and did you notice Walton was soooooooooooooo excited about Stocky and never gave credit to the Jazz's best player Donyell Marshall?
