Came across this annoying bug and squashed it. It’s always the functions file!
Well, I don’t blame him. Miami gives him a great chance to hang with his buds, enjoy the awesome Miami scene, pay less in taxes, compete for a championship immediately with some low-cost scrubs rounding out the roster, and dodge intense media pressure. It’s perfect.
I only hate the move because of the NY-Miami rivalry and the whole Pat Riley thing, but I believe Lebron made the right choice. Now the decision to do a 1-hour special was almost as bad as Dan Gilbert’s angry (possibly drunken) letter, but that is another matter. Teams trade their stars and no one ever cares about how the stars feel. Lebron did a lot for Cleveland, and I don’t think Cleveland did enough (on the court) for Lebron. As for talk that people won’t respect him as much, I don’t think it will be that bad. Do people not think Kevin Garnett is great? I guess Lebron would be more legendary if he did it all himself, but he is going to put up monster numbers next season and if the Heat win multiple titles it will really ease the sting of critics. Damn those lucky fair-weather Heat fans!
As for the Knicks, I think they made the right decision in clearing cap space. The bad contracts had been such an albatross the last decade, and to have flexibility going into a time of CBA uncertainty is wonderful. I don’t love Amar’e as our number one man, but it was probably a move that had to be made. I did love the David Lee trade, though, especially since Lee could have left for nothing and he had already been alienated. I’m looking forward to how the rest of the free agency season plays out, but I’m excited for next season (even though I probably still won’t get to see any Knicks games on TV since Lebron signed in Miami).
We’re getting close to the most anticipated free agent period in many years. As a tortured NY Knicks fan, I find it interesting that many major media outlets went from thinking Lebron would probably stay in Cleveland but might go to New York, to thinking that Chicago and Miami are the front runners. Personally, I think that after Cleveland’s horrible performance that Lebron is done with them, and I think NY has a great chance at him.

Kiwi finally learned how to crawl forward late last week. He is very strong so it was always a matter of figuring out how to move his limbs in such a way that he could go forward. He’s been able to crawl backwards (very comical) and go from crawling to sitting for a while now, but over the weekend he went from slow forward crawling to moderately fast forward crawling.
Along with some of the boxes for our move to a temporary condo (for a few months), this new ability has made our current condo seem extremely small. Kiwi can now easily cover the entire span of our condo in very little time, and he is so strong that when I try to stop him he just stiff-arms me and breaks the tackle.
