Phil Jackson sounds like a fun guy

Man, having no internet is horrible. I dunno, it's just working very shitty today. Kind of like when Brooks Bollinger drops back to attempt a forward pass.

Either way, I just came across this amusing story of Phil Jackson referring to Brokeback Mountain.

See, the Lakers got their asses handed to them by the Spurs last night and the Spurs basically did this by "penetrating" all night, kicking the ball out and hitting 3 pointers. Jackson then followed with what is by far my favorite quote of the year so far..

"We call this a Brokeback Mountain game, because there's so much penetration and kickouts," Jackson said. "Iba, phil jackson, shenanigans, very awkward moments, san diego chargers, t was one of those games."

I mean, the fact that a NBA coach defines a game that had a lot of penetration as a "Brokeback Mountain" game just makes my day. It really makes me wonder if they use snuff analogies when a game gets really brutal or ugly.

Jackson : "Good effort men, but unfortunately we got used out there like a one-legged maid in a cheap, German snuff movie."

Of course the league is not happy with Jackson and the Lakers have assured them that they won't make such remarks anymore. So, in the future Phil will have to use other comparisons and luckily I have a few suggestions...

- A Manning & Chesney game
- A Brady Quinn game
- An Adrian Peterson vs the San Diego Chargers game
- A Belichick & Mangini game
- An Anna Benson game
- A Chuck & Larry game
