Well it looks like the Heat are undefeated at home against the Mavericks in this series. It’s going to be difficult for them to win in Dallas tomorrow, but you never know. The refs have finally figured out that just because Dirk’s hair is flying everywhere, someone isn’t necessarily fouling him.
It was a nice weekend. Didn’t do much on Friday as you might have figured, but Saturday was a good day. It started off with me driving Leslie to her hair appointment downtown and then heading over to Gold’s gym on 6th street. For those of you who already knew, you should have told me. There is a sign there that reads “Golds Gym”, but there is no Golds Gym. So I headed over to the 71/Ben White location and worked out for almost 3 hours. Then I headed back to pick Leslie up and we went home to get ready for the night. Then me, Leslie and Nolen went over to Jerry’s for some pre-fight fajitas and brew. I started getting drunk pretty early – so by the time we were going to hit the Frank Erwin Center, I was pretty toasty.
There were 6 fights on the card for the night and at least 4 or 5 KO’s. After the fights, we headed back over to Jerry’s for a bit more boxing. Jermain Taylor vs. Winky Wright on HBO. Booo-ring. A draw. Actually, I thought Taylor did enough to win. Winky’s arms have got to be bruised as hell from doing all that blocking. I counted in between Winky’s punches thrown and at one point, the duration was 30 seconds. That’s an eternity in a 3 minute round. Throw something once in a while Winky. Maybe someone will remember your name after you die. Or do you just want to be known as the guy that Jermain Taylor and Fernando Vargas beat up?
Sunday we spent lounging and recovering. We did eat some Dim Sum over at Tein Hong on Burnet, then we went over to the Dollar Tree and picked up a few items. On the way out, Leslie bought me a couple of Homies. We also stopped and bought that movie Fun with Dick and Jane. I love that movie. Lastly, we rented Munich and watched that before game 5 of the NBA Finals. Beautiful movie.
