Welcome to Buster's Blog

Irregular commentary on whatever's on my mind -- politics, sports, current events, and life in general. After twenty years of writing business and community newsletters, fifteen years of fantasy baseball newsletters, and two years of email "columns", this is, I suppose, the inevitable result: the awful conceit that someone might actually care to read what I have to say. Posts may be added often, rarely, or never again. As always, my mood and motivation are unpredictable.

Bingo To Bron-Bron: This Time, The Cavaliers Can Do!


Do you know Bingo Smith?

If you do, you are an original Cleveland Cavaliers fan.  Born in 1970 as an expansion team, the Cavaliers have had a typical history for a Cleveland team -- some bad, some good, occasionally championship-caliber, but never quite able to grab the brass ring.

This year could be different.  The Cavs have swept the first two rounds of the playoffs and will face the Toronto Raptors in the Eastern Conference finals.  They'll be favored to win and return to the finals for a rematch against the Golden State Warriors.

Last year, the Warriors smoked us to win it all.  This year, we're healthy and I like our chances to return the favor.  We shall see.  Gotta take care of Toronto first.  Let's go Bron-Bron, Kyrie, Dr. Love, Double T, J.R., Delly, Shumpy, R.J., T-Moz, Frye Daddy, Old Mo, Old James, et al.  You can do it!

Here's a great couple of lines from Sports Illustrated's Andrew Sharp on Cavs' streaky, inked-up, wild-man shooting guard, J.R.Smith:

J.R. Smith.  Explain.
J.R. Smith should be enjoyed responsibly by mature adults over the age of 21.  If your offense is becoming dependent on J.R. Smith on a nightly basis, seek professional help immediately.  If you're pregnant or think you may become pregnant, do not watch J.R. Smith, as your baby may emerge shooting 30-footers and riding a floating scooter.



Go J.R.!  Go Cavs!  Let's win it all!
