Recap: Bucks 91, Kings 86 - Brew Hoop
BrewHoop recaps Monday's game. (FYI, I haven't seen the 4th quarter yet, but we'll be talking more about Evans and Jennings soon.)
Non-Kings items after the jump.

The Bizarre World Of Children’s YouTube Videos - Deadspin
Yesterday, I linked to a Spencer Hall TSB post and noted how much I enjoy his work. Drew Magary has a different style, but he's also extraordinary. I dare you to get through a Drew-penned post without laughing out loud. This post (one of his new "Balls Deep" posts on Deadspin) is hilarious.

I just right click the links
and select open in new tab

I do too
but I was just curious. It can actually tend to lead readers away from the site without them coming back.

It's a preference thing
I hate when sites do that to me, so I don’t want to do that to y’all. I trust you people will come back to me!
Gotcha
just curious. I kind of like it. The new window opens and I find myself at a new site and get distracted from the original site I was on. Then I close that window and the old site is there again, reminding me of how much I missed it

Personally, I agree
I prefer a new window. Especially when my A.D.D. kicks in and I end up following that one link to another, and another, and another. Eventually I close the window thinking I’ll be back here, and I get pissed that suddenly I’ve closed everything.
But I’m an idiot, so it doesn’t matter.

Thanks IW
I knew you were good for something. :)

No mistakes in the tango, darling. Not like life. Simple. That's what makes the tango so great. If you make a mistake, and get all tangled up, you just tango on.....
Some people don’t like doing the right-click and select open in new tab, but I do it instinctively on my computer. But for the keyboard-friendly out there, it’s a great option.
Victory is tasty.
Awesome!
I knew there was a reason you were smarter than I.

I like the new window too.
Not a big deal because I usually right click for a new window, but on the fanshots I often click the title thinking it will take me to the comments section and then I find myself at the article. I close the window and there is nothing. So I go look at porn.
Ball movement ... is like jogging for most people: They do it occasionally, and it makes them happy. Then they go back to not doing it. - Henry Abbott

You are the first person to say that he/she doesn't want popup's off something like this....
….and I do mean that TZ. I would request pop-up’s as well. So count my vote along with the douchebag brothers who’ve already sounded off.

word
I currently have five browsers open averaging about 15 tabs each, so TZ may be making sense. I compulsively open every link in a new tab. I love the tabs.
Victory is tasty.
Me too
I usually open 5 or 6 when I’m seriously writing something. I need it all at the very touch of my fingertips at a moment’s notice.

for whatever reason I don't use tabs enough
I will whenever I use Chrome as my browser, but for whatever reason I don’t use tabs in Firefox

I love Chrome
Its my default now. Its a personal preference, but I just like it. It’s a lot less cluttered than Firefox in my opinion.

I still use Firefox
I’m refusing to use Chrome as my primary browser simply because I don’t need Google to completely take over my life

Koz is coming back
Sam Amick just broke the news on his Twitter that KHTK hired Koz for the 12-3 weekday shift. Didn’t say what that means for Mike O’Meara or if Sportsline is extending an hour.

Boozer was on the Chicago airwaves today saying he was expecting to be traded soon..
I think that merits a mention in the non-Kings section.
???
So we went from flabby bellies and assy cellulite to steely six packs? Interesting move, SBNation?

Re: The hilarity of the "Children's YouTube" article
I was skeptical, but the “Puppy Dog” commentary had me in tears.

Read the one about Pixar
just search “Pixar” on deadspin. If you thought that youtube one was funny…
Victory is tasty.
Fantastic
And true. Honestly, I took my pregnant (read: emotional) girlfriend to see Up. Holy crap, she cried like 4 different times, and a bunch of dust kept flying in my eyes from out of nowhere. It was horrible.
Never forget: I am a complete idiot
Right out of the gate too *SPOILER ALERT*
The movie started fantastic… then BOOM! Sledgehammer to the face. I was done.
Victory is tasty.
Big Daddy Drew is the best
“Marvin and Ocho: Under one roof” is one of the funniest things I’ve ever read.
Have you read Men with Balls? It’s a very good, but exhausting read. BDD’s energy is apparent throughout. Multiple pages of the man just makes me want to go to sleep.
