Happy Holidays, From All of Us at Black Shoe Diaries

via rugby-pioneers.blogs.com (reprinted with Creative Commons license)

Here's hoping that this holiday season finds you well, in the company of loved ones, and well fed and watered. Your sports agenda for the day includes three NBA (!) games and Sunday night NFL football. Surprisingly, none of the 83 bowl games this year take place on Christmas day.

Feel free to use this as a open thread for presents, holiday stories, and/or Lakers domination.

Merry Christmas!

I had no idea Bob Seger ever recorded Little Drummer Boy until I heard it at a concert last month.

Are you guys going to give us a coach for Christmas?

Please?

KwanzAa is a fake holiday invented by a convicted killer

Roy Karenga is the founder of Kwanzaa. He was convicted, as the leader of a radical black group, United Slaves, of murder of the Black Panther leader on UCLA’s campus and torture of two women.

Please keep this in mind when you wish someone Happy Kwanza.

With that said, I will end all politial talk on this forum and not reply further to this post.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all.

How's about domination of the Lakers.

I don’t get the media’s love affair with the Fakers. At this point the Fakers are the second best team in LA.

Hope everyone had a wonderful Whatever You Celebrate.

GiftBrag: Debated for about a year now as to whether I should have an iPad. I have an iPhone. I have a laptop. Eventually realized that those two things together pretty much make the iPad a wonderful $600 extravagance. So we saved about $400 and got me a Kindle Fire. It’s rather wonderful.

Also, little guy met Bass Pro Shop Santa without freaking:

Hey, I got a Kindle Fire as well

Loving the Cloud stuff and general awesomeness of the thing at its ridiculously (comparatively) low price. I mean, it’s about 75% of the iPad at 33% of the cost. I’m going to be so well-read and so poor.
