Give Tiger Woods, and those who ever-so- carefully crafted his lines Friday, credit for one thing: They have taken copious notes on what NOT to say. From Pete Rose to Roger Clemens, from Michael Vick to Mark McGwire, from Alex Rodriguez to Kobe Bryant, from – well you get the idea – the blueprint [...]

This morning, the writers over at Bright Side of the Sun posted a piece entitled "Why Losing to the Lakers is a Good Plan for the Suns" (before it was updated to include "or at least isn't the end of the world").
As I read the headline, I assumed it was some form of satire. I was wrong.

What's next, cats and dogs living together? Ann Coulter and Keith Olbermann dating? Anquan Boldin and the Arizona Cardinals getting along?

It's time for the first Lakers, Suns match up of the 2008-2009 season and the anticipation is palpable. If you are a Suns fan you know what is going on with the home town team but what about the "Lake Show"?
