Grizzlies @ Dallas 7:30 pm Central



Game Time!!!



1...

1 Memphis win...

1 Minnesota loss...

Playoffs, part II...

A surging Memphis team will try to tame the Dallas Mavericks on the road tonight, where the team has not won since November 2000 (while still in Vancouver). A Memphis win will clinch the playoff spot for the Grizzlies. At this moment, they hold a 4 1/2 game lead over the Timberwolves, with 6 games to play. The T-wolves are idle until Wednesday.

The Grizzlies have been playing well the last three games, with big wins over the Heat, Raptors, and Bobcats to be winners of 5 of the last 6, and three straight. Dallas will be at full strength, as the Grizzlies hope to get James Posey back tonight, or Wednesday @ Houston.

Dallas won the first two meetings between the teams, who will also play on 4/20 to end the regular season.

Battier led the Grizz yesterday against Charlotte, with 25 points and 11 rebounds, while Mike Miller chipped in 21. Dirk led Dallas to a win Saturday against Utah with 24 points and 9 boards. Dallas is 10-2 under new head coach Avery Johnson, who took over for Don Nelson last month.

Should be a good one, and the Grizzlies would love to clinch here, or in Houston.

Let's Go Grizzlies!

Say Goodnight Tommy


Q: What do these three have in common with Tom DeLay...

A: Nothing Yet...but give it a month!


Looks like yet another Republican congressional leader is headed for banishment. We've seen power-houses like Newt, and our good friend Lott from Mississippi go the way of the Dodo, and now it seems as though Tom "Ethics" DeLay is on his way out.

You know things are bad for you when your #3 (Rick Santorum) goes on National TV and says you've got some serious questions to address to the public. Top that off with R - Rep. Chris Shays saying it's time for new leadership in the interest "of Republicans seeking election" and you've got yourself quite a mess Mr. DeLay.

That being said, if anyone in that senate knows how to wiggle out of a tight spot, avoid tough questions, and generally avoid being held accountable, its Tom DeLay (which consequently, has made him a PERFECT leader for a party that specializes in those same activities).

Everyone is shying away from DeLay...President Bush wouldn't support his comments on the Judicial System, Bill Frist has kept his distance (as to not hurt his GOP Presidential bid...), and



**By the way** This Week with George Stephanopoulos has apparently become the forefront of interview shows...It seems as though almost every significant public statement made in the last 6 weeks has been made to Mr. Stephanopoulos on ABC's Sunday Morning Show...What happened to Meet the Press?
