The 'Awful Sports Day' Thread

[rocknrollforyoursoul]

Consider this the place to come commiserate when it's just been one of those days in the world of sports. I'll kick things off:

Wow. A lame showing by the Bruins. They had two chances to put away the Canadiens but pulled a complete no-show both games.

And just before that I got to see LeBron get away with a foul on Pierce near the end of the game?and even though the Nets retained possession, they proceeded to fail to get off a final shot, then turned the ball over. Then I got to see LeBron climb the scorer's table and act like he'd just won the title. Marvelous.

if the bruins actually shot the puck instead of waiting for a better shot that never comes they may have scored 1 or 2 more goals. this was the most frustrating part of this series.

and if anyone thought the nets were going to be allowed to beat the heat they were kidding themselves.

Yeah, pretty bummed out about the Bruins. Ever since their resurgence, I have really gotten a lot more into the actual game of hockey than I used to be. The best teams don't often go all the way, but I really thought they would at least get to the finals again - especially with the Penguins getting eliminated last night.

The Heat win obviously sucks, but it's been ages since I have sat down and watched a Miami game. Unless the Cs are facing them in the playoffs, I just can't get myself to do it - they just make my life worse.

Everything always seems to go right for the Heat these last few years... just sickening, why didn't we have that same luck in the big 3 era??

Bruins losing is hard... this Sox game isn't bad though. Some silver lining!

The Heat have been unbelievably fortunate, as were Jordan & Co. in the '90s?no major injuries to any key players, no big-time rival to make life a pain in the butt and every game a severe challenge.

I'm not wishing anyone injury, but I sure wish the Cs had been more fortunate in that respect.
