steadyb Posted June 4, 2001 Share Posted June 4, 2001 An English pub might not have the game on. Yankee Doodles is a sports bar in Woodland Hills that will certainly have the game on, plus food and drinks galore. Big screens, and smaller screens in the bar. It's up to you guys. steadyb p.s. there's always the Hooters in Glendale or Pasedena that channel 9 (KCAL) broadcasts from. That place will be packed, early arrival a must.

steadyb Posted June 4, 2001 Share Posted June 4, 2001 I'm for anywhere that serves an authentic "Philly" cheesesteak. Ya know, with tomatoes, green peppers, onions, mesquite bar-b-q flavor, etc,, the works. A REAL Philly cheesesteak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah Yankee Doodles sounds good because it's relatively close to Dave. I don't know...do they get really crowded? I'm all for a good sized crowd but don't want to be stuck in the parking lot. I've only been there once and it was on a weekday. An English pub might not have the game on. Well you'd be surprised..."The Robin Hood" in VanNuys has a lot of British Laker fans and is a classy place to drink. Whatever works...Yankee Doodles is fine or ?

Ya know, with tomatoes, green peppers, onions, mesquite bar-b-q flavor, etc,, the works. A REAL Philly cheesesteak. At Pat's, at Geno's, and at Jim's, they would laugh their asses off at the thought of a cheesesteak with tomatoes, bbq sauce, etc. on it. It's beef, Cheez Whiz (don't mock it until you've tried it), and the roll - period. However, it will be Lakers in 5 - I'm nothing if gracious to the Sixers. Iverson will get off in more than one game, score 45-50, but the rest of the Philly offense will get shut down. Shaq can take Dikembe. Maybe the Zen Master cemented Shaquille's shoes to the foul line during practice and made him shoot a few hundred free throws during the week. At least the NBA got the finals it was praying for...can you imagine how little anyone would care if it were a Lakers/Bucks finals? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's amazing to me how often I see "Authentic Philly Cheesesteak" on a restaurant's menu which then goes on to list a bunch of items (usually onions, peppers and mushrooms) that you don't normally see on a cheesesteak With just onions, peppers (ugh) and mushrooms, it's a Cheese Steak Bomb. If you get it with lettuce, tomato, and mayo it's a Cheese Steak Hoagie. If you combine all of that stuff on one, it's...well...an unrecognizeable mess, if you ask me... http://cwm.ragesofsanity.com/otn/sad/nea.gif dB Cheesesteak Worshipper ==> David Bryce Music • Funky Young Monks <== Professional Affiliations: Royer Labs • Music Player Network Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magpel Posted June 4, 2001 Share Posted June 4, 2001 Number me among those who think this lovely sixers team won't be able to play with the Lakers (esp. sans Geroge Lynch and a healthy, ambulatory Eric Snow). Eastern champs is going to have to be consolation enough, and probably for a few more years. Which all bums me out because I rather despise this Laker team. (The good thing about that is it puts me in touch with the way that the rest of the world feels about my beloved Yankees...) But Philly has much to be proud of. Heart, character, guts, all cliches but all true in this case. I was rooting for the Bucks because I thought it would be a better a series with LA (because of all the Bucks' offensive guns, you never know when they're going to explode). I'll watch with interest, and I'm virtually praying that the Sixers take at least one. Check out the Sweet Clementines CD at bandcamp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Follow the money...I'm talking TV ratings and revenue here. At least NBA and NBC get the #2 vs. #5 media markets. With no disrespect intended to smaller cities, Milwaukee, Charlotte, San Antonio...all the kiss of death for ratings right from the start (include Toronto: Nielsen ratings don't cound Canadian audience). If LA blows out Philly in Game 1, this could be one of the least watched NBA finals ever. Also, the team revenues suffer. I recently read that a series has to go 5+ games for teams to really cash in. I don't quite understand that one. It's seems that the entire postseason is a license to print money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one has EVER swept the playoffs. EVER. The last (only?) team that came close was...the Sixers in '83, who went four-five-four, sweeping the...ummm...Lakers in the finals. Yes, I know, all of those guys are gone, but tradition will hold. The Sixers will NOT be swept, regardless of how well Kobe plays, OR the hyper-thyroid case with the Superman tattoo.. http://www.musicplayer.com/ubb/biggrin.gifhttp://www.musicplayer.com/ubb/biggrin.gifhttp://www.musicplayer.com/ubb/biggrin.gif dB ==> David Bryce Music • Funky Young Monks <== Professional Affiliations: Royer Labs • Music Player Network Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kobe has the killer instinct that Jordan had, and then some, Fisher's shooting is deadly, Fox, Grant, and Horry are stepping up big time, and Superman will crush Mutumbo, roll him up and smoke him. Sorry, but the Sixers had the unfortunate bad luck to run into the Lakers now.

Curve Dominant Posted June 5, 2001 Share Posted June 5, 2001 Prediction: Sixers in 7. I saw what the Sixers did to LA when they came here, at that was before Mutombo.

They're ALL playing well. Both teams. That's why they're in the finals. LA has had a week and change off - I'm thinking that it may have cooled them off a bit. Plus, they''re reading their own press, which means that they're gonna be cocky. The Sixers have some serious momentum, and they're under-rated...and hungry. It's the obvious no-brainer to say LA in 4. I think you're in for a big surprise.

lucidmusic Posted June 5, 2001 Share Posted June 5, 2001 I don't care if Iverson goes off for 50 every game. If he continues to shoot 37% from the field it will be Lakers in 4. Unless of course he gets to the line 30 times each game. D BTW Kobe's playoff FG % is 49.6 and Shaq's is 54.7. Philly can't touch that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
