Hey nerds how much do you love NBA Finals season, hmmm? Feast your eyes on this cute thing, which involves two political ladies trash-talking over their basketball teams. Maxine Waters won’t even shake her friend’s hand, that is how serious she is about this dispute. [The YouTube]

What’s basketball? And why are those nice ladies wearing those terribly-loud shirts with numbers on them?
I demand a Congressional investigation into Courtney Lee missing that fucking layup. Subpoena Nick “0 for 4 free throws, any one of which could have clinched Game 1 of the 1995 Finals” Anderson, if necessary.
Where’s the turkey being beheaded in the background?
[re=333967]SayItWithWookies[/re]: That would be the last shred of dignity of our government being ground up before our eyes, in this case.
It’s not a real fight unless someone takes their earrings off.
battle of the Disney Worlds
I love how they stand there awkwardly for the first few seconds of the video. It’s so, “live from my parents’ basement”.
[re=333977]NoWireHangers[/re]: Weaves, friend, weaves.
Go ahead, Ms. Waters. Reppin the lakers hahaha
The true tragedy of the Cavs loss to the Magic – being denied a trash-talking Dennis Kucinich.
[re=333982]NoWireHangers[/re]: “Party on Corrine.” “Party on Maxine.”
[re=333982]NoWireHangers[/re]: “Party on Maxine!”
[re=333988]Come here a minute[/re]: No fair on getting yours posted first!
[re=333987]Noodle Salad[/re]: Now THAT would have made for some Must See TeeVee.
MEMO
TO: EVERY POLITICIAN ON THE PLANET EARTH
DATE: JUNE 8, 2009
RE: STUPID SPORTS “BETS”
FROM: EVERYONE OTHER THAN POLITICIANS ON THE PLANET EARTH
Politicians:
Please stop with these stupid, annoying and completely tacky dog-and-pony show sports “bets.” You know what? No one really cares–and no one has ever cared. And it’s just dumb. And who cares if Mr. Maine Governor bets a crate of Maine lobsters vs. Mr. Texas Governor who bets some “TEX MEX HOT SAUCE AND A CRATE OF TEXAS BEEF!!!” for some dumb, over-priced, steriods-fueled, only-for-the-rich dumb sports game? Who cares?
Most people can’t afford lobster or steak, so these dumb bets likes this are wrong on about 100 other levels.
Politicians: No one cares. Do something about the economy, jobs, housing, over-priced sports, public safety, affordable mass transit transportation, lower taxes, and education, and then we’ll care.
Nah…I want neck rollin’ and “talk to the hand, cuz the wrist is pissed”. And shoe throwing also.
[re=333994]thefrontpage[/re]: Is “TEX MEX HOT SAUCE…etc etc” code for something involving illegal immigrants and/or male prostitution and/or condiments? Classic GOP good times, right there.
Basketball groupies swapping tales of their sexcapades with the Fort Wayne Pistons and the Washington Capitols. It doesn’t get any better than that.
[re=333977]NoWireHangers[/re]: [re=333985]loudmouthredhead[/re]: No no. The Lee Press-Ons must fly. Weaves are for ripping, and earrings are just dead gauche.
[re=333994]thefrontpage[/re]: um are you talking Maine red claws? cause only then would you be right.
[re=333994]thefrontpage[/re]: You’re just pissed off because the [your city's professional sports franchise]s didn’t make it to the [your favorite sport's championship tournament]. Next year you’ll be all, “I’ll give you a (bucket, crate, case) of _____________ if the ____________s don’t win the ______________!”
I prefer Mr. Federer myself – the Quentin Tarantino lookalike is a true champ.
And then Lebron James smacked them both upside the head and walked away without speaking to reporters. It’s the death of sportsmanship in Amernica, I tells ya.
“…..girl, I will cut. you.”
AC Green looks like shit. He has really let himself go.
This season’s political fashions:
IN: Shooting hoops, breeze
OUT: Shooting pheasant, lawyers
IN: Twitter, Youtube
OUT: Policy documents, work
Goddammit, when are they going to make out?
I heard this morning that my un-governor Sanford and Alaska’s un-governor Palin had a bet over a AA hockey championship. Sanford won, gets some king salmon and gets to keep his shrimp and grits. Maybe he can give some of that salmon to the state’s teachers.
[re=334006]RoscoePColtraine[/re]:
Von Qui Qui… is that you girl? ummm..welcome to King Burger…where you can have it your way, but don’t get crazy.
Hey, when does the White House replace its bowling alley with a hoops court? That was a campaign promise or something
Must be a slow news day.
There was no gambling. Where was the gambling? They are supposed to bet something. Like, I dunno, an LA mortgage backed security vs a Florida mortgage backed security?
What about Congresswoman Inhofe?
This just does not do much for my opinion of Congress…
It’s a great day for equality in America when black women in congress can kick back and be as irrelevant and useless as their white male counterparts. You’ve come a long way baby!
[re=334019]TGY[/re]: I think the Obama said that the bowling alley is staying on some late night talk show. He said he’s been practicing, secretly, late at night, improving his game at the top secret underground WH bowling training command center/bunker. He is aiming for total domination at voter sports. Watch for a shuffle board being installed on the WH grounds, then you will know he is going after the oldsters -the only group that has not been overwhelming Hoped out.
Where is the wall to wall saturation coverage of Legislating from The Cast: Sotomayor’s malo ankle?
[re=333985]loudmouthredhead[/re]: Those are old ladies wigs – not weaves.
No. 12 clearly didn’t come to play. She had every opportunity to bring up Kobe Bryant raping a hotel clerk and she didn’t use it.
[re=334013]takes12no1[/re]: He also gets a baby born out of wedlock and the daddy’s meth lab.
You know what would be cool? A professional basketball league for women. I’ll bet that would be great and as far as I’ve never heard nothing like that exists.
And don’t tell Rep. Brown that Obama is on the bandwagon now too- he picked the Lakers in 6.
Where’s the torn out hair/weave? Where’s the blood? This is LAME.
[re=334047]Scarab[/re]: We should totally call it Gynomerican National Basketball Association, or GNBA for short.
[re=333982]NoWireHangers[/re]: Congress World! Congress World! Party Time! Excellent!
[re=333995]freakishlystrong[/re]: YES. I totally forgot about the shoe throwing. At least one of these chicks needs to have her eye put out by the heel of a size 10 Blahnik knockoff she BOGOed at Payless.
[re=334046]S.Luggo[/re]: that could be either Alaska or SC…they only difference between the states is about 70 degrees.
the look on Brown’s face when Waters starts naming the names of Lakers not on her jersey is fucking great. She really summed up the Orlando fan base with that one. “Um, who, what? Where’s the tapioca?” I really hate the Lakers, with every fiber of basketball loving being, but I’m ok with them winning this championship precisely because of the look Brown (the quintessential Magic fan) shot when Waters went Gasol on her.
For more of Brown’s take on fantastic moments in sports, check her take a stab at a shout out for the Florida Gators.

Unlike idiot republicans, she’s mostly harmless. Being this dumb in the republican caucus gets her a chairmanship.
Sisters don’t get serious about fighting until they take off their jewelry, they was playin.
Well this *is* an important series. If I’m following the sports talkers correctly, I think a Lakers win would mean that Kobe isn’t an (alleged) rapist any more.
[re=334056]El Pinche[/re]: too much botox ™.
It’s Aunt Esther and Donna.
[re=334056]El Pinche[/re]: Is you crazy? Haha…is you crazy? Whachoo gonna brush now, huh? Whachoo gonna brush now?!?!
