The Hanson Brothers.

I'm a sports fan. I ride a bike and I read the sports section of the Sunday New York Times way before I'll read the front page or the editorial or anything else. And I'd like to take this moment to wish the Sonics all the best in Oklahoma City. I liked watching the Sonics when Gary Payton was around and I liked Shawn Kemp too. I really liked George Karl and Ackerly was OK. Mr. Starbucks Schultz was a horrible owner and now I just hope they leave town. And I hope they change their name so they're not the Utah Jazz of the 21st Century.  A pro sports team in limbo, changing owners, threatening to change towns always reminds me of Slap Shot. A classic movie.

I just watched the 25 Aniv. DVD of Slap Shot a few days ago. It's the same at the VHS version except they remove all the matte-lines from the Hansen's glasses. I really do like seeing Michael Ontkean though, Sheriff Truman, the podunk with a heart of gold...and a gun.

word. If I owned movies I'd own this one and Caddyshack, and Breaking Away. Actually the only movie I do own is Royal Tenenbaums. Oh well. Your Oklahoma City Super Sonics Suck.

I own a burned copy. I watched this movie recently and realized again how much I wish I was Paul Newman sometimes. Man what charisma.
