Taking Back Sunday (http://www.takingbacksunday.com) have posted a Myspace update on Matt's condition. You can read it below.
So thanks to everyone expressing concern about Matt. For those of you that don't live in London and weren't at Give It A Name on Sunday, Matt took one to the forehead from that mighty swinging microphone. He is doing okay and Adam made out with him to apologize. Adam always takes a good look around before he winds it up but Matt was tuning and wasn't looking up and you can figure it out from there...

He did go to the Emergency Room straight from the show to get stitches (around 6 but tell him we told you 53 cause it sounds way tougher) but he is a stud for powering through the set and only missing 1/2 a song due to "blood gushing out of his head" which is pretty rock if you ask us.

Don't forget to watch Conan tonight, you can look for the stitches, it'll be just like where's waldo!

I was there at Give It A Name and he looked pretty fucked after it. He didnt seem to be able to stand and had to lean on his amps.

But none the less glad to hear hes ok

I always wondered when that would happen. I always figured they practiced all of that because that mic seems to be all over the world when he is on stage.

Nice new album, boys.

Tonight is supposed to be Jeff Goldblum and Gene Pompa, which is an all new episode.

Tomorrow, (which will technically be Thursday when the actual show comes on), will be Taking Back Sunday.

"Juvenile"? Yes, because he meant to hit Matt... he actually hates Matt and was hoping he cracked his jaw with the microphone...

As someone already mentioned, you can ask the same question about Nash. Everyone has their own definition of MVP, and this year the voters decided it did not mean "one man team". Sorry to burst your bubble.

haha please. First off, Kobe doesn't shoot that bad ever. He was 24-48 when he hit 81 points, and that's a fuckin great percentage. And don't call that ballhogging, cause if I have a teammate who is on fire that night and hitting pretty much everything, you give him the damn ball. Your coach will tell you to give him the ball, he was on fire and had to carry the Lakers on his back cause for the most part his supporting cast was inconsistent. And about all the ball hogging shit, you must not be watching the NBA playoffs, cause his points per game are down from the regular season while his assists per game are up and they are dominating.

how was he 24-48? lol even if he hit all threes thats only 72

\And about all the ball hogging shit, you must not be watching the NBA playoffs, cause his points per game are down from the regular season while his assists per game are up and they are dominating.

Thus, you agree that during the regular season that is used for MVP voting, Bryant is a ball hog. He doesn't trust anybody on his team, and he's ALWAYS wanted to have the ball every play.

how was he 24-48? lol even if he hit all threes thats only 72

He was actually 28-46, and he had 18 free throws.



But now let's accurately compare the two. Each assist is worth 2 points.

Kobe: 35 + 4.5(2) = 44 points/game
Nash: 19 + 10.5(2) = 40 points/game

Now, let's consider some percentages:

FG %
Kobe: .450
Nash: .512

3PT%
Kobe; .347
Nash: .439

FT%
Kobe: .850
Nash: .921


If you are the owner of a team that wants to WIN, and you can only sign one of them, Nash will get you more wins.

Reminds of that other time a few years ago when he smashed John in the face. I believe Nolan earned a chipped tooth from the experience.

But I think Adam got his just desserts when he fell off the stage and cracked his hip. I think everytime the dude nails somebody in the face with the mic, he should fall off the stage and break something.
