  I heard a little bit of the morning show discussing HB2 with wral's resident liberal Laura Leslie, who's next Cullen Brower with his expert opinion

  Calling BS on the NBA's official decision not to fine Draymond Green after he "Chris Pauled" Adams. That deserved a one- game suspension, especially considering Green's history of dirty play. It's obvious who the NBA wants to win this series as well as the Championship.

  not a big NBA fan but glad GS is down funny how the media is tore up about warriors being down they may come back and win it you never know- would like to see Cleveland win it all not because I like any player just would like to see the city of Cleveland win a championship, Browns, Indians and Cavs have great fans they deserve it.

  TOTALLY agree about Warriors being down. Couldn't be happier. I'd like to see LeBron to win it all- because he came home to Cleveland. That said, I like what I'm seeing with OKC beating the "Golden Boys". The media anointed them too soon, and glad KD & OKC. have them on the ropes.

  Now rumors are is that Curry is only 70%. Man I hate excuses. Great regular season doesn't mean anything if you don't win the title. Ask the patriots. Was watching some NBA fights back in the 70's, 80's, 90's and early 2000's. Mr. Draymond Green you are lucky you are playing now. Torn between OKC/Cavs. Love Westbook he takes a lot from the media, but keeps playing hard. Love the way he is taking it to Curry. Respect Lebron for going back home. Heat fans want him to lose so bad!!!

  Max being a Steelers fan their only hope is the Cavs. LOL! Indians should have won at least one during the Albert Belle, Eddie Murray, Jim Thome, Kenny Lofton, Manny Rameriez, CC Sabathia years.

  95 World Series was a great chance Cleveland but lost it 1-0- Red Sox broke the jinx maybe this year the cubs get it done, that will give some hope to Indian fans-speaking of Braves and Indians saw a poll where 70% of Native Americans say the names do not upset them.

  Heard a good one on Mike & Mike - "Curry is only injured when Warriors lose" LOL. I'd be torn with OKC/Cavs final as well, but would pull for LeBron. LOVE what I'm hearing about Westbrook - did you know he wears an outfit only ONCE, because the donates it - every outfit is donated. He eats PB&J - has to be Skippy smooth with strawberry jelly (not jam). Curry may be a good man, but I think all the attention has gone to his head. Draymond Green is a DIRTY player - he got T'd up again. Should have been suspended for the kick to Adams. Will be happy if the Golden Boys are eliminated Saturday.

  No I didn't know that about Westbrook. Those outfits that he wears are lets just say I wouldn't wear them. LOL. I really think the success has gone to Curry's head also. I watched him beating his chest while he was dribbling towards the end of the game last night. He has really become a hotdog player. You are so right about Draymond.

  I remember that 1-0 game. Wasn't Glavine the pitcher and David Justice hit the homer? Braves should have won at least 3 titles during that span.

  I agree on Curry, he is a good but I have noticed with the hype he has received he is playing to it. I think it is kinda like baseball once a batter has seen one of the phenom pitcher that come along they start to learn about his habits- I think the league is starting to catch on to Curry and will play better defense against him as time passes on.

  down at the beach today is nice I think the rest of weekend is iffy- Justice hit a home run for the only run and Glavine was the pitcher-funny thing I was sitting with some Cleveland fans and pulling for the Braves that game was on edge all game long. One guy from Cleveland passed a baseball down and everyone on that row signed it, he said he promised someone an autographed baseball and by god he was gonna deliver. I got off work at noon that day drove to Atlanta-got to the stadium and Parked around 6pm bought a ticket outside went to game and left drove back to N.C. went to work next day with all my junk talking about the game.

  Well the Pack is still playing Baseball and after another inning hopefully they will still be playing, if I am thinking right Rice won their regional and they play the Raleigh winner if State wins they would host the super regional since Rice is a 2 seed, not sure how it would affect Coastal. 2 more outs Pack

  This has been a long weekend and I crammed a lot into it, went to beach Friday, left and went to Tobaccoville NC on Sat. spent the day with a fellow vet that I hadn't seen in 49 years, last time was in Vietnam, he was heading home in Aug and I followed in Oct. Lots of reminiscing, we were together only 9 months but Sat. felt like I had known him all my life, this may have been one of the best 4th of the July I have had in a while, when you share dirt in life or death situations, there is a bonding, Sunday I rested and Monday I respected the 4th That is my Tuesday tidbit-Just my 2 cents

  Sounds like you had a great 4th, Max. Thank you for serving your Country! I can't imagine what you experienced during your time in Vietnam. I was glad to see the troops honored in Fort Bragg when they had the MLB game there. Good to see our service men and women appreciated.

  Now I would to see them do a game at Camp Lejeune, maybe do a series of games at military bases around the country, maybe this will catch on with other sports to.

  They changed their lineup. Too bad Dan Patrick got moved from 99.3 FM to the AM dial - I can only get that in my car. Afternoons are the same on 99.9.
  
  Agree - it would be great to see the majors expand their games to other military bases.
