Today was hot & muggy. Busy work day then went to dinner with family because of nieces b’day. Was cool and relaxing to get out of the house and no real pressure. I’m thinking about hitting the pool right now!! Turn on the pool lights that change colors and take a quick dip … hmmmmm…… where are my trunks.

Like Usher says “YEAH”!! Playing on my station at this moment!!

Did a nice slow workout in the heat of the garage today hitting the iron and bike with plenty of Gatorade by my side. The workout felt really good actually. Then did lawn and a bit of pool maintenance. I didn’t do too much pool maintenances since I wanted to climb in will clean the filter in the next few days.
The Lakers look lost all except Shaq, he played great but received no offensive help though the Lakers did play good defense until the fourth quarter. Don’t know what else to say but they look lost.

Went looking at home bars, tile, rugs etc.. Later had a very interesting time at dinner……hopefully things will move along well….what do I mean…..lol …will reveal more later.

Went to a niece’s graduation later in the day had a nice workout with weights in garage.

Lakers are getting out hustled plus the Pistons in most positions are more athletic. Phil Jackson stayed with a crippled Malone too long and that made Shaq cover for him and put Shaq in foul trouble. One game playing crippled may work but not when another team goes after you all game! A healthy Medevenko was right there.
I still believe the Lakers will bring it back to LA and get another championship!!
Workouts are going cool today was cardio. Did the bike and push-ups and stomach crunches. Yesterday I was sooo tired I forgot that you need more rest in the beginning of starting the type of harsh workouts I do. Tonight I will go to bed early. Early bed for me is before midnight.

Legal #@%* in the morning.
Worked during the day since I did WAH (work at home). Was able to go straight to the living room after work hours and get the beginning of the Lakers Pistons game.
The game was exciting ….too exciting wanted the Lakers to run away with the game but that did not happen. Kobe sent the game to overtime with another terrific clutch 3 pointer.
Game had me going so much during commercials and half-time had to find something to do so I played a few games of darts, 301 first and then cricket.
Shaq & Kobe showed why they have 3 championship rings when the game looked lost they scored the rest of the Laker points. Incredible focus and fortitude.
Luke Walton came in and helped open up the flow with his great passes and defense even though supposedly he was over matched physically. I think Shaq loves Luke because he knows how to feed Shaq the ball in scoring position. Actually he set up Kobe really nice a few times too…
Malone played great defense even though he could barely move. Fisher was a bulldog as usual.
Detroit played really smart and almost pulled this off. The Lakers need to stop fouling Billups!! That guy doesn’t miss free throws.
GP has been a bit off but we have to remember he was the only Laker to play every game and the Lakers would not be here without him!! Plus in the previous series after the second game he’s been money!
The Lakers need to stay focused on every possession and play smart like they know how to win the series…. I could go on about the game but will leave that to the sportswriters.

Just another Monday had a little stomach ache that plagued me off an on this weekend. Been skipping too many meals probably. I think its time to up my work-out tempo. I never really stop totally working out just the frequency is less sometimes depending on what I have going on.
Gonna start my heavy duty burn work outs. A lot of people think they get out of shape because of age but more likely because of the accumulation of not doing exercise or eating right over long periods. Hey, thats the only reasons I get out of shape, even with injury there are things you can do.
I have my excuses too ;)…they just aren’t legit reasons not to work out…time to hit the work-outs hard this week!!

Any of you who know me a bit know I’m a big L.A. sports fans. Laker, Dodgers, Rams (formerly LA), Raiders (well Cali and briefly LA), USC, UCLA.
Just have to say one thing getting my work-out in today relax a bit and then kick back and watch Kobe & Shaq go for championship ring number four.
GO LAKERS!!!!
