Well, that's it, Fo'-Fo'-Fo'-Fo' is dead for at least another year.

I did not submit the post above, from another "Mike G". I never say "meh". I'm surprised another person can use the exact same name here. Is there a 'space' or other distinction?

I was using it in the Alanis Morissette sense.

My numerological Waterloo was College Algebra so I have no idea what you're talking about. I'm positive you're right that The Magic have a 1 out of 1000 chance of going undefeated. Nobody's ever done it and there have been dozens of teams that have been more dominant than the Magic -- that would be my argument. I'd say the only way it could happen is if Cleveland wins against Boston only to have LBJ's elbow freeze up in the Finals and then have something similar happen to Kobe and the Lakers Now then, as for your use of the word ironic -- It is not ironic that the Sixers stoppped the Lakers bid to go Fo' fo' fo'. That is coincidence, which is not necessarily irony. Irony would be more like if the Lakers came within a hair of achieving their goal, only to succumb to injuries because they overextended themselves and lose the final four games. Or let's say the Sixers were an eighth seed who upset a team that everyone thought would foil the Laker's bid -- then that would be irony
