Memories..like the shadows of the mind,
Remember some of these young men? Lamar
Odom, Matt Barnes, Turioff, Carom Butler?
Well, yes, they played with our L.A. Lakers.
Now, in their new jerseys they play for the
L.A. Clipper team and it seems our own
team is hurting. We were able to keep Pau
Gasol and Kobe Bryant, Steve Blake and
Metta World Peace. That is true, even acquiring
Steve Nash and Dwight Howard as well and
yet, some thing is missing. Unity? Better
coaching? Fewer injuries? More defense?
Something, surely..but still we continue to
root for them as loyal fans always do.
Losing so many games and even our last
one that almost was a win with Houston.
If Kobe could only have made his trade
mark of a 3 pointer, we would have gone
into overtime and had 5 more minutes play.
Did not happen and tonight we are going
into another game. Jeanie Buss got her
big diamond and the romance continues.
Phil Jackson (our former coach) is ready
to tie the knot it would appear. Daddy Jim
Buss is pleased, surely but not so about
our team's lack of wins. My husband
is 92 and ill. I am now caregiver 24/7
and at age 82, perhaps it might even be
the right time to change pace. Unsure.
But, I do know that for awhile, this blog
will be on hold while I try to figure some
things out. All too often plans made by
mice and men go awry and my own
goals, plans and dreams are being in
limbo at the moment so I guess for right
now, I will tell you that of course I am
going to root for our team and hope
for the best!! Meantime though, S'Long
it's been good to know you...been a long
time since we have been strong...and I now
must be moseying on.
