I am now scarred for life. You'll be hearing from my attorney if I can ever stop barfing long enough to talk to him. (JK)

"Too damn funny" is an exageration, more like slightly funny ... funny is lamar passing to vujacic on the bench ... too funny is like a hit seinfield episode ... too damn funny would be like the movie bad santa
Anywho you aint helping our soft reputation ... funny on this blog should be the kobe jumping over a car commercial ... but instead of kobe put bostons big 3 there .... have the car hit them and then back up a couple of times ... then cut to a grinning jerry buss behind the wheels ... now that'd b funny

LOL. The only question is, when is he becoming a free agent? The Lakers need a mascot after all. We could also use him as power forward to swallow up KG.

Wow...that is...weird. It makes me appreciate the Laker Girls. When I was a kid, I thought they were the greatest thing ever. Later, I realized they were just a oddly high profile dance troupe. Now I realize just how much worse it could be.
I hear Celtic fans bemoan the death of the old Garden, with no piped in music or cheerleaders or whatnot. I always liked having dancers and music - they're the Laker girls, they're part of showtime. But...we've got to keep it classy, even Ron Burgundy classy. If a bear ever eats someone in Staples Center and I find out Jeanne Buss OK'd it (or, heaven forfend, paid for it), I'm gunna be pissed. Lol:)
Anywho,
GO LAKERS!

Sweet. One can only wonder what was transpiring inside the wiggly costume prior to the purge. Canasta?

Definetly wrong on so many levels but gotta say Loved it. Just too funny.
Posted by: JustaLakerFan | November 22, 2008 at 07:12 PM
That is the weirdest thing I've ever seen a mascot do.
Odd.

Taliq,
---.. too damn funny would be like the movie bad santa---
Am I the only person on the planet who thinks that Bad Santa sucked? It wasn't that funny at all, yet I hear EVERYBODY raving about it...I just don't get it.

Warren,
I'm sorry you don't like Bad Santa, and I hate to be rude, but I believe that makes you defective. When Willie aka Bad Santa attacks the fake donkey in front of the children, I barfed up a Houston Rockets cheerleader.

=======================
It's obvious! Before swallowing the cherleader mascot is fat......afterwards he is spent. No further explanation needed.

Although the mascot vomit cheerleader thread has not been attended by many, it may someday be the stuff of legends.
Posted by: dave m | November 22, 2008 at 10:36 PM
That was hilarious. I'm still laughing at the absurdity of that. For some reason, I found the 2nd one (on the road) a lot funnier, not sure why, but it's a little mind-boggling when the girl gets swallowed up, good stuff.

Warren,
Got to say, the movie Bad Santa is like chicken and watermelon. If you don't like it, something's wrong with YOU.
The foulmouthed dwarf is about the most hilarious thing ever. RIP Bernie Mac.

FOR ANYONE TO SUGGEST THAT MY SON BECOME THE LAKER VOMIT MASCOT TO SUPPLEMENT HIS AVAILABILITY ON GAME DAY, IS JUST ABSURD ! ! FAITH, AND THIS FORUM HAVE HIT A VERY OMINOUS LOW POINT.

Good morning,
Tonight's game with the Kings is a classic trap game. Can the Lakers pay attention for a sufficient number of the 48 minutes to walk away with a win?
This and the rest of the near-term upcoming games will be as much a test for this team as will future meetings with the Celtics and Cavaliers.
AB17 is quoted as saying he and his team mates are aware that the Kings and other teams could lull them to sleep at the most inopportune times. But if everyone can stay alert, the third unit will get more minutes to finally get their act together. The third unit play on Friday night was downright ugly.
How high are our expectations? Good grief, I'm writing about the play of the third unit. Go Lakers!

Thank God we don't have a mascot.
Losers have mascots.
Lakers Today... Lakers Tomorrow... Lakers Forever.
GO LAKERS!

Any word on how long we'll be dealing with the TImes Survey pop up? I took it a few times, saying the Laker blog was the reason people buy things advertised on the Times.com, so a raise is imminent, but it keeps popping up. It's relentless. Nothing blocks it, if the Lakers are half that committed, they're going undefeated the rest of the way.
Posted by: VMan | November 23, 2008 at 09:44 AM
Well, boys ... I haven't a thing to say.
Played a great game...all of you. Great game.
(Phil Jackson tries to smile.)
I guess we just can't expect to lose a game.
(PJ pauses and says quietly.)
I'm going to tell you something I've kept to myself for years --
None of you ever knew Troll Man.
It was long before your time.
But you know what an icon he is at the LA TImes Laker Blog. Well at least in his mindseye.
(There is gentle, faraway look in his eyes as he recalls Troll Man's latest last words.)
And the last thing he said to me -- "Philip," he said -
"sometime, when the team is really tired-- and the
breaks aren't going their way-- tell them to go out there
with all they got and.....
JUST LOSE ONE FOR THE TROLL MAN...
Posted by: Troll Man | November 23, 2008 at 09:53 AM
vman-
Sorry, that's out of our hands, but I appreciate the boost to our bottom line. When that raise comes, we'll buy you a beer.

Off topic, I would like to commend LAT for featuring a special coverage on the passing of Pete Newell this week. He is quintessential Laker that refuse to stop being a Laker fan up to his last breath. It was reported that Jerry West missed his death by few minutes as he went off on the wrong exit. West uttered to his friend as his father figure: "He had just passed away. I missed him by about two minutes. I walked in there and he was sitting there in a wheel chair. I walked over there and put my arm on his shoulder and said what I though should be said to myself. He and I were probably a lot closer than people thought. He really meant a lot to me. He was very much of a father figure for me. He knew how I blamed myself for losses, not anyone else, and he was always there to kind of put a hand on my and say, 'Hey look, you conldn't play better.' And I'd try to explain to him, maybe I couldn't play better, but we didn't win. He seemed to understand that part of me when I'm not sure, even today, I understand it."
~~ In that statement of Jerry West that is the whole concept of being a Laker fan going against a traditional rival, the Boston Celtics. Whatever is our advantage at this time whether we have the beast or Trevor or anybody....until we have proven that we can beat the Celtics, we should not boast ahead until it is done and over. Practice makes it perfect, keep on honing skills, avoid T/O's, make those rainbow shots, don't waste free throws and prepare for the shoulder bumps anddirty tactics of Perkins, KG and Powe and anticipate the antics and artistry of Paul Pierce. Winning against .500 teams are great but there is no greater glory than beat those lephrachauns on Christmas Day. Like what West said, he tried it several times and still did not win the game.
It is nice to be overly optimistic but don't underestimate the Celtics.

Anyone else completely annoyed with the LATimes website constantly throwing popups asking you to take a survey? So obnoxious!!

Edwin Gueco....
Very nice post about the relationship between Jerry West and Pete Newell.
As someone that has agonized over the many Laker losses to Boston in the Finals, I can truly say from the bottom of my heart...BUCK FOSTON!!!
The Celtics have been relying on intimidation and dirty tactics throughout the 60's, 80's and continue to do so with the present day team.
The Lakers have to make up their minds that they are a better and TOUGHER team both mentally and physically than the Celtics and then prove it on the court when they meet. There is no other way. Magic and the Lakers had to taste a bitter defeat in 1984 at the hands of the Celtics before turning the tables in 1985. Kobe and his Lakers will have to reach deep inside themselves to achieve their goal of hoisting the O'Brien at the end of the year.
GO LAKERS!!!

If we lose on xmas day it will be sad. We''ll go into the finals with doubts.
If they try to eat us like a fat green mascot, we'll deflate them and emerge victorious.
GOOoooOO LAKERS!!!!
