Ep. 045: I’m (Not) Lovin’ It!

Ba da ba ba baaa…

The Basketball Jones — Episode 045

In today’s show, Tas and I discuss: the Hotlanta Hawks and the Blazin’ Blazers (see what I did there?); try to make sense of the arena deal messes in Seattle and Sacramento; argue over who’d win a fight between Stern and Cuban; and much, much more…

Oh, all that, and I try to trump Tas’ zero tolerance/icing sugar analogy with my NBA League Pass/Chicken McNuggets one…

    “…I’m lovin’ it.”

    I’m officially 2/2 on phonetic write-outs of popular tunes/jingles, I believe.

    Joe ‘Smooth’ Johnson

    Just started to listening to your podcasts (since 38), but I gotta say that this episode completely rocked. Had a few laugh out loud moments, and was just nicely paced. Anyways, keep up the good work (or else).

    Y’know what, while I’m here, do you guys think that Yao Ming’ll be able to keep up the pace for the rest of the season?

    When I used to eat Chicken McNuggets, I couldn’t look at the insides or else I’d become disgusted and have to throw away the rest of my nugs, so I’d just eat them whole. That picture gave me a sick feeling in my stomach.

    I’m thinking that Joe Johnson’s name is less likely ‘Cool’ then ‘Joe Cool’ after the old snoopy character. This has already been taken by Joe Dumars. I vote for “Joe Camel” as in “Smokin’ Joe Camel”.
    Been listening every morning. Keep up the good work guys.

    Skeets were you biting your tongue when Tas said the words ‘David Stern’ and ‘Jujitsu’?

    Borat would’ve hit that hanging ethnically-charged curveball out of the park.

    Although now that I think of it I can’t come up with a better punchline than ‘hehe, jew-jitsu’, so it probably isn’t worth it.

    The Bulls also have a mic on the rim. I think they had one last year too.

    Couple things about this Podcast…

    1.) Who gave what to JD…he did sound terrible.
    2.) Thanks for getting the Rox talk in there (even getting the mention of the Rox in the show rundown). Kept me hooked (as always).
    3.) The chicken McNuggets analogy was a BILLION times more sensible than whatever Tas was talking about with Icing sugar and flower. I still haven’t figured out what he was talking about.
    4.) 3-ply toilet paper is addicting. Wish I could get some of it in the doorm bathrooms.

    I like to imagine that Joe Johnson talks like Mushmouth from Fat Albert. If I ever actually heard him speak, I think a part of me would die.

  11. Sean at 8:05 pm on 11.13.2006

    Joe “Faceguard Mask” Johnson.

  12. X-factor at 9:10 pm on 11.13.2006

    Joe “Cucumber” Johnson

  13. Seth at 10:32 pm on 11.13.2006

    Joe “Eye Socket” Johnson

  14. The Basketball Jones » Cognomina! Joe Johnson Needs One … at 1:38 pm on 11.15.2006

    […] On Sunday’s ‘cast we asked you to help give Joe Johnson a proper nickname. (Look, ‘JJ’ is too Full House-y and ‘Cool’ just doesn’t cut it, okay?) […]
