Utah people are nuts (or geniuses); Horses + Mavs-Suns recap
Happy Monday, y’all!
I consider myself very fortunate to be allergic to cats. Why, you ask? Because cats suck.

I tried Diet Coke with coffee creamer, a popular drink in Utah, and would consider ordering it instead of coffee at a restaurant
This one is brought to you by Billy Currington’s song, “People Are Crazy.” Specifically, Mormon people, but hopefully that is not a surprise to you. It is not to me. Those people are as crazy as Amber Heard. Anyway, let’s stay on topic. Creamer, evidently, has other uses besides being mixed in with one’s coffee, as it is used in conjunction with making waffle/pancake batter and icing and can also be poured over fresh fruit. All of those seem fine and normal. Diet Coke, besides being consumed “straight,” is often mixed with liquor. Maybe orange juice if you are feeling freaky. But mixing coffee creamer and Diet Coke together? What the eff, that is some David Blaine ish.
"If you're from Utah, or have visited Utah, it's as common as drinking water there."
Learn something new every day, I suppose. There are countless drink — and food — combinations that make us all raise our eyebrows. This takes things to a new level. But, I am not narcissistic so I will admit (credit to me): I may be wrong; there is a possibility that this drink is the bee’s knees.
So here is what I am going to do. I am going to try the Diet Coke-coffee creamer combination for myself and report back to y’all next week. Stay tuned. If you happen to try it as well, please let me know your thoughts.
The recipe shared by @toponlinefinds includes:
1 fresh lime
1 diet coke
Pebbled ice
Coffee Mate liquid coconut creamer.

Some Horse Race: The 148th Kentucky Derby took place on Saturday, lasting all of two minutes once again. Rich Strike won the whole damn thing and became the second biggest longshot to win the Kentucky Derby in the history of the race (80-1). The horse’s jockey was spanking Rich Strike during the final stretch more than Nelly used to spank females in his music videos back in the day, which I do not condone under any circumstances.
In all seriousness, what an unbelievable comeback and upset. Consider this, too: Rich Strike did not join the field until Friday after another horse was scratched. Sports are awesome.
Dallas Mavericks 111 Phoenix Suns 101 (Game 4): Folks, we have a series! After the first two games, I thought the Mavs were dead in the water. Luka’s supporting cast performed as well as Fergie did singing the National Anthem at the 2018 NBA All-Star Game. Plus, Luka’s defense was abysmal, especially in Game 2. In Game 4, though, Luka’s supporting cast stepped up in a big way, led by Dorian “Doe Doe” Finney-Smith (24 PTS, 8 REB), and Luka’s defense was much improved (three steals).
Doe Doe was wet from beyond the arc (8-of-12) as was Davis Bertans, who hit his first four three pointers. Actually, the whole team was pretty wet from distance, going 14-of-24 in the first half and 20-of-44 for the game.
As for the Suns, Chris Paul played like trash in Game 3 (7 turnovers) and in Game 4 (5 PTS, 7 AST, 5 REB; fouled out). Tough scene. Unlikely that he will continue to play poorly and, because of that, I would not be surprised if the Suns close out the Mavs in six. However, with the way the last two games have gone, Jason Kidd & Co. have me believin’ something is special in the water down here in Dallas.1
