NBA Cancels Games

As far as I can remember I’ve always loved basketball. I’m not good at it so I don’t play it but I love to watch. When I was little I even attended basketball camp for two summers in a row. I wasn’t good at it but I had fun.

I just recently read in an email I got from the Lakers (my favorite basketball team) saying that “We appreciate your patience as the NBA and the NBA Players Association negotiate a new collective bargaining agreement. Since an agreement has not been reached at this time, the league has cancelled all preseason games. The league will continue to work toward a new collective bargaining agreement so that we can get back to enjoying the excitement of NBA basketball.” I also got another email from the Lakers saying that “We’re sorry to share that the NBA and the NBA Players Association have yet to negotiate a new collective bargaining agreement. Unfortunately this means the league has had to cancel all regular season games scheduled through November 14. Rest assured both sides are working hard to get a deal done so that we can get back to what we all want most, the excitement of NBA basketball. In the meantime, we’ll continue to keep you informed with updates as they become available.”

I can’t believe that they would do this. I was looking forward to the new season and to see how well the Lakers can do with their new coach. I hope that they come to some agreement sometime soon so that they don’t have to cancel any regular season games.



Rich Cronin—R.I.P.

I forgot to post here that last September 8 was the one year anniversary of Rich Cronin’s death. He died last year of leukemia. He was only 36 years old. Rich was such a great singer and will always be loved by his family, friends, and fans.



Willis Tower Skydeck

Last Monday, August 29 my aunt took my uncle (from Germany) and his wife to the Willis Tower Skydeck. My cousin and her boyfriend, uncle (from the Philippines), mom, and I went too. I took some pictures and will post them some time this week or next week. So check back on the site to see them.
