in a postgame interview, laker's coach phil jackson offered the following commentary: "We call this a 'Brokeback Mountain' game, because there's so much penetration and kickouts." where he came up with it and why he decided to use it is besides the point, it's goddam funny. i'm not sure what he meant by kickouts, especially as it pertains to brokeback mountain or gay sex. maybe phil knows something that urban dictionary doesn't, because they don't have a definition for what a kickout could mean. maybe he can fill that in for us. back on point, he could have easily called it a 'porno game' or an 'orgy game' but would that have been as newsworthy? nope, not until you disparage the gays.
it didn't stop there though. his heartfelt apology read as such: "If I've offended any horses, texans, cowboys or gays, I apologize." yes, it was the horses that took the most offense. it think he just wanted to crack a brokeback joke, but probably could have done a better job. he tried though and it was still funny.
so here's to more 'Brokeback Mountain' games for the lakers. filled with even more penetrations, kickouts, dribblers, bricks, reaching fouls, lay-ups, give-and-go's, pump fakes, dunking, stuffing, rims, reaching in, and back-doors.

Past Mortem by Ben Elton: Written in typical Ben Elton style, full of wit, shock, poignancy and suspense you'd expect from past books. With old friends like these, who needs enemies? It's a question that short, mild-mannered detective Edward Newson is forced to ask himself, having, in romantic desperation, logged on to the Friends Reunited website in search of the girlfriends of his youth. Newson is not the only member of the class of '86 who's been raking the ashes of the past. As his old class begins to reassemble in cyberspace, the years slip away and old feuds and passions burn hot once more. Meanwhile, back in the present, Newson's life is no less complicated. He is secretly in love with Natasha, his lovely but very attached sergeant, while comprehensively failing to solve a series of baffling and peculiarly gruesome murders. A school reunion is planned, and as history begins to repeat itself, the past crashes headlong into the present. Neither will ever be the same again.
