  1. Lol between two terrible teams it shouldn't matter enough for that.
  2. Chris Paul has always been a bitch. Just ask Julius Hodge, if you can find him.
  3. I guess when you get 5 strikes that happens.
  4. Overrated how? The guy has been an amazing player. All you keep going on and on about is how he can't make last minute shots. If you're saying "overrated" in terms of how people would stack him up next to Jordan, fine...but if you're saying he's overrated in the sense that he's NOT a great player, well, that's just ridiculous. He's about the 16th best player ever according to per. I doubt most people have him that low. Thus why I feel he's overrated.
  5. Who was the brewers poster that said he didn't expect to lose anything after losing fielder? Enjoy last place.
  6. You don't wear five rings if you're overrated. Agreed. Robert Horry. It's pretty much proof that Horry was an all-time great role player. Or that he had an agent that got him on good teams?
  7. If they didn't have Paul Pierce and KG I probably would. You're pulling for Miami over Boston? That's crazy talk. Why? LeBron and Dwade are dicks, but Pierce and KG are thugs. I'd much rather my kids end up like the former two than the latter.

  9. That's actually kind of funny. It is. I actually laughed when it happened. I was right there up against the banister right next to my Cardinals jersey donning roommates. Passed right over me for the next guy in line. My roommates at the time are now married. They both have an Albert Pujols ball. Two autographed balls in one household. Not fair. He's the one big name I don't have. He never signs here in KC at games and I will not pay $200 for him.
  10. No, he was a douche, he just did it quietly and it got overlooked because he was so good at baseball. He's really kind of an ass and has proven it on multiple occasions. Examples? Refusal to sign any autograph unless it's for money for one. There's been a lot of stuff that has rubbed media types (rational ones, not the PC police types) the wrong way over the years. Like SSR said though, he's a professional athlete. I don't think he's some awful human being, he's just not the classy type he wants you to think he is. He has a hitting clinic near Kansas City. He does a signing to help support it yearly. He charges $200 an autograph. One of my friends went, paid the money to get his signature. Albert wouldn't sign the darker item in a silver pen and put the autograph on the darkest spot. He's a dick, just like Wilfredo.....ok not like Wilfredo, but a dick.
  11. A lefty at that...Newark, NJ native so I'll root for him. I dont get it, is he hurt?
  12. The Angels released Trevor Reckling, I know he struggled the past year and a half, but man that's quick to give up on a young arm.
  13. I imagine this is similar to the 89 90 offseason. I don't think they need major changes to win a title. Let Wade age another year and get healthy.
  14. If they didn't have Paul Pierce and KG I probably would.
  15. It's more than just Skip Bayless, hell the girl on that show (Jamelle Hill?) says it all the time as well.
  16. Overrated that people rate him over Jordan when every advanced stat suggests it isn't even close?
  17. Miami. I want a Miami OKC final.
  18. I still remember the Bulls series last year ( :( ) when he did that all the time and I'm pretty sure he missed every time. He would start his shot and I would just start laughing as he bricked it. Kind of surprised he took that shot there though, then again, he's dumb. And some gm will fall all over himself to give him a max deal.
  19. Nice shot Josh, you really understand your strengths.
  20. Who did he pick in his bucks matchup? Or did this miss the playoffs again for the 50th time in 53 seasons? In a sport where everyone makes it.
  21. Milwaukee fans are turds. Everyone who isn't a Bulls fan knew they were in trouble, nothing to do with me being a Bucks fan ;) Yep they were in huge trouble wining the most games in the league again this year. They just lost to a bad 76ers team. Clearly they were in trouble after they lost Rose. And noah for half the series, you said you were gonna pick the celtics over the bulls with a healthy rose. Why?
  22. So you are predicting the Pacers plane to crash on the way to Miami. Not cool dude. :P Hahaha. I will be cheering for Indiana however, fun team to watch. I see Miami in 6 but would love to see the upset. Nobody expects the Pacers to win so hey, I'm going to relax and have fun with it. At least the Pacers advanced further than the Bulls...too soon? :hello: I hope you don't add to your championship total. I don't want you catching us.
