BLEACHERS BREW EST. MAY 2006

Someone asked me how my blog and newspaper column came to be titled "Bleachers Brew". It's like this, it's an amalgam of sorts of two things: The bleachers area in the stadium/arena where I used to sit when I would watch baseball, football, and basketball games and Miles Davis' great jazz album Bitches Brew. That's how it got culled together. I originally planned on calling it "The View from the Big Chair" that is a nod to Tears For Fear's second album, Songs from the Big Chair. So there.

Cutting down those Nets to size

Enough of them New Jersey Nets (9-64), they looked content to slide back to their sucky ways after they won their ninth game of the season that assured them of not having the fewest wins record for a single season. The Chicago Bulls (34-38), never ending with their rebuilding, crushed the nets 106-83. It sure was nice to see Joakim Noah and Derrick Rose running the floor again. And what can I say about Jannero Pargo, the guy hometown like Rose who had a memorable series against the Washington Wizards in 2006? He scored a season high 27 that snapped the Nets' two game win streak.

Now if they can tab another hometown favorite -- Miami's Dwyane Wade -- in the upcoming off-season's free agent wars, then this team is going to rock.
