5 Things You Should Know About Adam Morrison

1. Likes Tecmo Superbowl, Rage Against the Machine, and books about Che Guevara.
2. Is never afraid to show some emotion.
   
3. Idolizes Larry Bird, and other tall weird looking white guys like Dirk Nowitzki.
4. Described by Yahoo! Sports fact page as "huge disappointment for 2 1/2 seasons".
   
5. Has all the pressure on his shoulders to live up to the former Laker legend who wore #35, Mark Madsen.

UPDATE: IEC contributor The Other Pride of Inglewood is reporting that Adam will not be wearing 35. Instead, he will dawn jersey #6. Now the expectations are even greater, having to live up to the legend that was Eddie Jones. Good luck!

Lakers, Kings, Other Things.

I'll catch up with The Office tomorrow. Until then, here are the quick details after a Thursday night of nothing but sports.

NCAAF - Miami vs. Georgia Tech. Highlight: Mark "The 'X' Is Silent" Teixeira and Jason Varitek on the sidelines rooting for Georgia Tech. The cameraman zoomed in on Varitek's haircut. Didn't finish the game, didn't have to.

NFL - Bengals vs. Steelers: Snow everywhere. Pretty fun until the Bengals remembered they were the Bengals.

NBA - Pistons vs. Celtics: I wish Rasheed Wallace would just fight Allen Iverson for no particular reason. You could make a graphic novel out of all their tats thrown together.

NBA - Lakers vs. Suns: Lakers Win! But really, the real winner is you after you watch this video.

NHL - Capitals vs. Kings: Ovechkin-shmetchkin, Kings win 5 to 2. This game was pretty intense. Kings came out storming the Caps and played inspired the rest of the game. Dustin Brown had a sweet goal. I still can't see the puck on TV.
