That’s it for now, folks. I am pausing the “Quote of the day” until things slow down again. For now, let’s enjoy the summer league games, and also let’s see how the free agency goes. I am a glass half full so far, hoping for something much better when all is said and done.

Feels like this one is for LT whom I know is hoping against hope against reality that something shakes loose. Wish I could believe that it will…but I do not.

Hi, Jamie. You are hitting my man a little hard, Lol. I know Tom has always been an optimistic man and doesn’t easily get swayed by anything other than what he believes in.

It’s all live Buba. Tom is the only blogger whom I’ve met in person way back when for lunch and convo to be a part of this fun and wonderful enterprise. Also it’s not that I disagree that Russ will be an issue in terms of on and off court fit and chemistry but that J think the Lakers have already kicked all the tires in all the scenarios and have largely been met with no thank you or try back later. If the right playet(s) we’re coming into free agency I would think differently, but it’s a weak free agency in terms of true max players. Couple that with most teams with it both not wanting to play Russ for pay or pay Russ not to play and you have this situation. But I have always admired Tom’s dedication to finding the positive angle. Even if I don’t see it as being realistic. A good convo needs the dreamer as much as it needs a realist.

And Bananarama sings “I Heard A Rumour” that SOME are trying to BAN the relationship of Magic and Larry Legend? That can’t be true, right?

Bananarama is one of my favorite groups back in the day. Wonder where they are now. Would love to meet them and thank them for the memories.

Thanks, Jamie. I agree with “the true explorer” take.
But often we become so focused on reaching our goals, that we forget to enjoy the journey. Guard against becoming so single minded that your goals and dreams take over your life and prevent you from experiencing what life has to offer along the way.
Although it is necessary to keep your eyes on your goals and work steadfastly in the direction of your dreams, life is meant to be lived, and things that come along the way are part of it.
They are usually right under your nose but you can’t see them because you are too focused on bigger goals.

It’s funny cause I used to help run a theatre company in Long Beach, CA and for many years it was quite a lot of fun. When it became like an unpaid job J had ti stop and move onto more personally reaarding pursuits. Sometimes a journey can be about realizing you should maybe be on a different one. Will always love and aporeciate all that journey brought into my life but am also quite enjoying the nee one(s).
