I Blame Howard Schultz

Sorry, just felt like saying that. I blame Howard Schultz. Actually, not sorry at all. I really do blame Howard Schultz. He lost our team. There's no getting around it.

Surprise: I still kind of care about the NBA

The C's pulled it out tonight. I'm genuinely excited. Lakers-Celtics, round 17,638. Awesome. Almost as awesome as if the Seattle Supersonics remained an NBA franchise.  As readers of this blog know, the one of you, the Sonics' raping and stealing remains one of the most painful push buttons in my life. However, I can't but root for the Celtics. Ray Allen. Example number one. Great player. Former Sonic. Nuff said. Might I also add: Nate Robinson. Huge in the first half. Difference maker of the game. Seattleite. Former Washington Husky football player. The kid finally got some run in the first half after Rondo went down with a back injury. It's his first exposure on a national level. Celtics should take heed and play young Nate Rob, the northwesterner sticking shit in the eastern conference finals. Go C's! Go Nate Rob! Go Wetland Sports! We're back! What! Why not?

Following Seven Month Prison Stint, Wetland Sports Returns With a Vengeance

Don't worry, as far as we know, we didn't contract any easily transmitted diseases while in the joint. It's safe to tune back in to Wetland Sports. 

I'm not going to promise you anything from this blog because, honestly, I have no idea what exactly we're doing here. But I will guarantee a few things that we will NOT do here:

1) Be accurate (sometimes that stuff gets in the way of the truth). 

2) Be consistent (gets in the way of spontaneity). 

3) Be nice (gets in the way of ripping to shreds our favorite targets: Howard Schultz, Clay Bennett, David Stern, the NBA, East Coast bias, Petyton Manning, Storm fans, Canadians, Ryan Leaf, Ty Willingham, Coug fans, Tim Ruskell, Glenn Beck, racists, Vin Baker, USC, the states of Oregon and Idaho, Utah, figure skating, steroids, censorship, Wall Street bailouts, Erik Bedard, Bill Bavasi, rapists, etc.) 

Basically, we'll be writing about sports, mostly Seattle sports, with some other random commentary and thoughts. Enjoy!
