Speedy Claxton? More Like, Breaky Claxton

Speedy Claxton broke his dang hand. It's his non-shooting hand, but he shouldn't be shooting anyways. No specifics as to whether or not is was his passing hand. At any rate, the Hawks are now doomed to finish in the lower half of the playoff bound teams.

He broke his hand during a workout in Philly, where he lives. I once almost bit my hand off while eating a Philly Cheesesteak, so I can sympathize.

1986. Dominique. The Hawks. Some kind of crazy song that my wife swears she remembers hearing on radio ads (yeah, she was a kid). It's... it's actually not bad. It's not even close to the worst song I've ever heard, and the band playing (T. Grose and the Varsity???) are going all out. It's no Apache, but it's the best Hawks song I've ever heard. Oh, and I did I mention IT'S A MUSIC VIDEO?
