Preseason 2015 Game 3 Raptors @ Lakers

The Preseason labours on and the Raptors find themselves in Ontario. Not that Ontario! Ontario, California where they have the Los Angeles Lakers waiting for them. Let's look at some details

• Alot of homecoming here for the Raptors squad. DeMar DeRozan, Delon Wright and Norman Powell all hail from the Golden State and i'm sure they'll all be jacked to play in front of friends and family. Funny note, I almost included Amir Johnson in that list...forgot that he signed with Boston for a moment there...
• We'll also get to reunite with last year's 6th Man of The Year award winner and former Raptor Lou Williams who signed with LA in the offseason. Looouuuuuuuuu...
• The tides are changing a little in Laker Land. Kobe is still around, but there are a plethora of questions concerning his playing time and health. It appears the idea is for him to pass on the torch to the young crew they have assembled there in Jordan Clarkson, Julius Randle and D'Angelo Russell.
• This game will be televised at 10pm on NBA TV, so hopefully we'll get to see some of the players who sat out last televised game like James Johnson and Anthony Bennett.

Steve Earle - "Justice In Ontario"

Steve Earle has always had a penchant for politcally charged songs and kicking ass. This one is about a few cases of vigilantism in Ontario, Canada. Firstly the Black Donnelly's who were a family of Irish immigrants with mob ties that were famously gunned down and their farm razed without anyone ever brought to justice for the crime. Then he relates to a more modern tale from Port Hope, ON where a man was killed in a bar and the wrong men were sent to prison for the crime. It's kinda like his version of "Hurricane"

HE DIDN'T EVEN STRETCH DOE!!! DOE.....
