Raptors vs. Heat

Went to the ACC last night to see Shaq & my fave - Dwayne Wade - battle the lowly Raptors and CB4.
But of course, Shaq & Bosh aren't in the lineup.
The Raptors led the first 3 quarters, mostly by double digits, but Wade kept coming and ended up with 37 in a 4 point win. The Raptors couldn't convert anything in the 4th, pretty pathetic.

But my beef is with the 'spectacle', the rest of the going-ons. What the hell does dogs have to do with basketball.
The half time show was these 8 dogs running up and down the court to get a tennis ball, and somehow I'm supposed to watch this trash?
What was the point? Are the dogs special because they can run? Don't all dogs this side of St-Bernards run?

And the Dance Pak ... A dozen skinny white chicks who can't even be synchronized for the easiest Britney/Christina style choreography. Where's the diversity? Isn't Toronto all about being a melting pot? You can't tell me there's not better dancers out there.

At least people seem to love the mascot and he did make fun of Vanderjagt of the Cowboys (that's right the infamous 'Drunk Canadian Kicker' as Peyton called him was in the house) a little.

I also learned that a police badge is not a valid form of ID for the purpose of purchasing a beer.
Have Fun!
