More fedoras and whips

A new image from the upcoming Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull has been released, and that is always a cause of joy. Sadly the last image I posted here was taken down, hopefully this won't happen with this one as well.

Since the image is huge in size, I'll just post the link. Clickéz moi.

You can describe it with a mere two words: HELL. YEAH.

*ahem*

In other great news, George Lucas won't be writting the script for this one. Thank the gods.

As for recent basketball news, the NBA Europe Live Tour was completed last night, with predictable results. The Celtics were undefeated, though not as awe-inspiring as their roster would suggest, and yet another NBA team (the Grizzlies) lost to a European one (Malaga).

That's really not saying much though, as it's still the pre-season for NBA teams, and the Grizzlies are perhaps the worst team in the league. Gone are the days of the early 90's where the worst team in the league would easily defeat the European champions, the Nuggets and Toni Kukoc's Yugoplastica, respectively.

Still, there's one game I'm really looking forward for tonight; Panathinaikos against the Houston Rockets. Sadly, Vassilis Spanoulis, who last year played for the Rockets, was injured and he won't be able to play. This sucks, because former Rockets coach Jeff Van Gundy had no faith in Spanoulis last year and pretty much ended his NBA career prematurely. It'd be really interesting to see how V-Span would play against his former team.

Center Andrea Zizic was also injured and won't make tonight's game either. Doesn't look that good for my team, at the moment. As I had mentioned in a previous post, I believe we could defeat the Rockets, in a single match, during the pre-season, and with FIBA rules. Now only one of those three conditions will be true.

The game starts at 3.30AM local time (to be broadcasted on TV by ET1) so it's going to be a long night. -.- If we do win, expect an update right after the end of the match.
