Tuesday Helmeted Iguanas

by Seth on Jan 24, 2012 11:53 AM EST in Mamphibitiles

Good day, peppers! Tonight, the Knicks play the Bobcats for the twelfth time this season. Since we've come to know and dread the Bobcats almost as much as we know and dread the Knicks, there won't be any Pre-Game Reconnaissance today. I do, however, have a few links to share.

- Helmeted lizards are just casual mini-Triceratops?

- Remember that on-screen kiss with Ivana Humpalot (NOT Ivana Shumpalot) that Amar'e Stoudemire had planned? Well, it appears tomorrow, and ESPN got hold of a little sneak preview of the episode. Click that if you'd like to see some astoundingly awkward dialogue and Amar'e nervously rocking back and forth and fidgeting with his pockets.

- Mike Kurylo of Knickerblogger cleanly sums up New York's offensive struggles.

- Buried in this Marc Berman article is the notion that, with Josh Harrellson sidelined, the Knicks aren't expected to give the called-back Jerome Jordan any minutes. Instead, Berman supposes that Jared Jeffries will receive more minutes and that Carmelo Anthony will get some time at the four. I'd be verrrry interested to see a lineup with Melo at the four and Amar'e at the five (and Renaldo Balkman at the one).

- Speaking of Balkman and Jorts. Here's what one of those guys ate for breakfast (that appears to be the team's pre-game spread at their hotel in Charlotte), and here's what the other ate for breakfast before his surgery. Good luck with your surgery, Jorts! Speedy recovery! Please!

- After all that talk about rust and dead people and whatnot, Mike D'Antoni wouldn't rule out the possibility of Baron Davis suiting up...tomorrow.

- Mr. Will and Mr. Dan with my two favorite takes on how preposterous these Dwight Howard rumors (and the subsequent reactions) are, given the circumstances.

That's all for the moment. And how are you? Got anything good for lunch? Wanna trade?

That twit pic

is hilarious…..

My Wife is a Patriot's fan...
"Giants rely on fumbles and stripping the ball. If the pats secure the ball, then the pats win, but if they fumble or let the ball get striped than the giants win. every game the giants play they always benefit from the other teams bonehead mistakes (fumbled or striped) not from thier skills. The giants are a dirty team, I can’t think of any othe team as dirty as the giants. They try to strip the ball as hard as they can because they know they can’t win a fair game." by EaglesNeedD on Jan 23, 2012 2:01 AM EST

i was gonna post the same thing

couldn’t be more accurate.

I think it was Bobby V who said: "You are never as good as you are when you are at your best, and you are not as bad as when you are at your worst."

I'm eating leftover italian-style beef/vegetable stew

That I made in my crockpot. Now, my crockpot is either too hot on the ‘low’ setting, or not hot enough on the ‘warm’ setting. Forget about the high setting.

Kind of like Knick point guard play thus far.

Now, I should mention that my stew has barley in it. Yeah. Barley. The good stuff. I feel bad, because I really had two servings and would have traded with you for some girl scout cookies if you had them, but I ate the whole thing while I was looking at Golden State of Mind to get some insight on the despair of others.

Man, I keep creating metaphors for the Knicks situation by accident.

You know, this stew could use some pepper, and maybe Baron Davis will play tonight.

If the NBA decides to contract

They should combine the Grizzlies and the Wizards. It would slow down the Grizzlies’ juggernaut by infecting them with the Blatche, and they could call the team the “Grizzards”.

Man the Stoudemire clip was awkward but still kind of funny

and Baron Davis should play as soon as possible, why not? I would love for him to play especially in some capacity against Miami

I'm having some leftover shrimp mixed with

some leftover tortellini. If Melo (shrimp) and Amare (tortellini) can figure out how to work together as well as my lunch, we’ll have a championship!

I have a handful of limes

Anyone want to trade some pudding?

Chris Broussard just said on SportsCenter that the Knicks should trade Melo for Deron once the Nets think they don't stand a chance at getting Dwight

Yes please x1,000,000

It's very hard to be a Knicks fan right now

Even harder to be a sane Knicks fan.

And yeah, spicy chicken pasta!

Nice job with those links to Will and Dan.

I get so embarrassed sometimes, and I wish I could tell the world: “It’s not us! It’s our media and a few isolated incidents of fake ignorant fans who are really loud.”

Why are mosquitoes hatching in our offense?

a toasted turkey and bacon sandwich, 4 chicken fingers and a slice of pepperoni pizza

I had pepper turkey, chunks of peppjack, copious lettuce and pesto mayo on a roll!

I had a toasted everything bagel with butter and grape juice for breakfast.
And for dinner, I’m going to eat some pizza maybe!

They’re all up for trade.
