All that Jazz!

Being a Jazz fan this season may be the end of me. I do not know what is going on with them, but they keep heading into the 4th quarter of games with large deficits. Now, obviously, I like to see them come back. It is fun to watch, but it is also stressful. What I would like to see them do is play the whole game like they have been playing the 4th. I am Jonesin for a blow-out. It seems as if they start strong, 34 points in the 1st quarter against the Knicks. But then they slow down until the 4th (10 points in the 2nd, 17 in the 3rd, and 24 in the 4th, also against the Knicks). Now, it is obvious that every game is different, but it seems that the Jazz really struggle the most in the 3rd quarter. Not sure if this is due to resting the starters and playing the younger guys (and Gira). But this is going to have to change if the Jazz want to win the division and go deep into the playoffs.

That being said, I am still happy with the Jazz this year. They are better than I think anyone thought they would be. Before the season started I thought they might win 48 games and go into the playoffs as one of the lower seeds, MAYBE they would win the division. Well, expectations have changed. Not winning the division will be a huge disappointment and anything less than the Western Conference Finals will be disappointing as well. (Allen Iverson is an A%@hole)

One last thing, how about the title of my blog? Very original and witty don’t ya think? I think I will call the Salt Lake Tribune and suggest they use it after the Jazz go on a winning streak. They will be so impressed they may give me cash for contributing and sharing my brilliance with them. I am awesome!

Blog Virginity


My blogging virginity if officially gone. And it's about damn time! I am 29 years old (almost)! Well, unless you count that one time, I fooled around with myspace a little. I personally don't want to count that. One of those overly intoxicated nights.


Anyway, I just wanted to take this opportunity to explain what I plan to do with my new blogging abilities. Bitch. Yep, that's right, Bitch. I have a feeling that I will just be doing a lot of bitching. I will try to make if humorous bitching though. This was one of my fears about having my own blog. I don't want to just complain about co-workers (Carlee) and other meainingless crap. I hope to actually have some interesting things to talk about.
Sorry about using the "B" word so many times. I can't help it. I love that word. Sorry Carlee.
