Well, Sacramento must be paying cgk's salary, because he argued like crazy that the Queens-Lakers' series was fixed.

I am not a Kings fan. I am a Warriors fan -- barely. They are so awful year in and year out it's hard to care. The Clippers have now passed them in promise for the future.

I pity you. The Warriors suck! So do the Clippers for that matter! So, because you're a NoCal, you have that NoCal bias.

I was rooting for the Kings not only because I have despised the Lakers ever since I became a Warriors fan, but because they -- like the Yankees of the past decade -- are heralded as conquerors before they have earned the distinction.

Jealous? Another reason for bias.

Even if they turn out to be right, it is profound disrespectful to the other competitors to suggest that they shouldn't even bother playing. And here you are, singing "We Are The Champions" before game 2 of the Finals. Typical.

Ha! This is particularly amusing. What can I say, I love to sing, and "We Are The Champions" is one of my favorite songs. Did you in the Bible it says to speak what you want as if you have it, before you get it?

BTW, I have never suggested that we not play the championship. I'm enjoying it. And I don't see what it is so disrespectful about calling ourselves champions. We are the reigning back to back champions, are we not?

Fans like yourself are part of the reason I root against teams like the Lakers, the Yankees, the Red Wings, Miami University, Notre Dame, and the Williams sisters.

Fans like you make it all the more enjoyable, when we win. I love the fact that there are so many people that hate the Lakers, because it means the focus will always be on them.
