Man hugs for everyone, Bucks win 2 in a row

I was neither able to watch this game (thanks Fox Sports WI) or attend (thanks economy), but the Bucks pulled out a win they had to have.  Why did they have to have it?  Well, the NBA continues is attempts in screwing the Bucks as hard as they can with a 3 game road trip (and 8 of the next 12 on the road, and the Bucks are already proud owners of the “most road games played” title) out west against some of the NBA’s best..

This is the second time we got to play the ‘Cats and this time they had their full compliment.  There was even a Sean May sighting, which is amazing because I forgot he was still alive.

I Luve Ya Man!

Bogut uncertain for game tonight

Two nights ago the Bucks were healthy for the first time in what seemed like forever.  With the exception of Charlie Bell, all of the rotation players were there and the starting lineup was set.  Then Andrew Bogut only played the first half and no update was given on his situation during the game.  Now, two days later, we find out that Bogut had a migraine triggered by a hit to the face.  He missed practice yesterday and his status for tonight’s game against the ‘Cats is up in the air.

Assuming he will play, because he is a pretty tough dude, I had to take the opportunity to say that I feel for the guy.  While I am sure there are some who will say “It’s just a headache, play through it”, people who have actually had a migraine more than once in their life are more likely to be sympathetic.  I have had chronic headaches since I was 15 (now 26) with a handful of those headaches turning into migraines.  I can’t leave the house and sit in front of a computer, much less play professional basketball with a migraine.  I pretty much so sit in the dark and try to sleep it off.  To imagine running up and down the court with large, fast, strong people running into me and at me… well, it makes me want to cry.  But here is hoping Bogut is OK and makes his return tonight.  Emeka Okafor has been on a tear the last two games and Bogut typically shuts him down.  I’ll have an update after the game, which I cannot watch because it’s not on TV and I can’t justify paying to see the Bobcats when I have little to no extra cash to spend in today’s wonderful economy.
