    Everyone knows Paul isn't coming back. Nobody is going to trade a better player for him, so of course Paul is going to be the best player in the trade. The Hornets were getting four players ranging from slightly above average to top quarter at their position, the Rockets were getting one of the best big men in basketball, and the Lakers weren't going to have enough assets left to get Howard anyway. You really think Orlando was going to accept just Bynum and whatever crap was left on the Lakers for Howard? Actually, yeah. That's why I think there was an uproar. In a vacuum, the Paul trade arguably makes the Lakers worse. But if a Howard deal is contingent on it going down and the other owners believe that, they're gonna wanna kill the Paul deal.

    What are the Lakers options and resources for filling out the rest of the roster? I dunno, CP3/Kobe/Bynum + crap doesn't scare me all that much. That's 3 sets of questionable knees to depend on.

    I kept thinking that Caron was being courted to replace a traded Deng rather than the 2 guard. Although it seems that deal will help set the market for FA wings. Gonna be hard to convince Richardson to accept the $5 million MLE I would think.

    I saw about 4 seconds of Florida football this year and sadly Charlie was in them. His physical appearance is more revolting than ever.

    Why would Weis be over Malzahn on anyone's wish list?

    Nice 4 on 1 there.

    I think the season will get ugly at times, but man, how great will it be that there will be a great game basically every night? My liver won't stand a chance.

    Also the Bulls have a NINE game road trip starting in late January.

    Schedule is out: http://www.nba.com/bulls/bulls-announce-2011-12-regular-season-schedule-christmas-day-opener.html Those 3 games in a row, 5 games in 6 nights, type stretches will be fun.

    Cubs/Magic is odd. Cubs/Packers is abhorrent.

    My fear is that the Hornets and Magic will both have to take low ball trade offers because Howard and Paul won't sign extensions with more than a handful of big market teams. Did the Nuggets get a low ball trade offer for Melo? Did the Jazz get a low ball offer for Deron Williams? They didn't get near the value in return for the respective players, but they got decent packages of young players, picks, and cap space. The Lakers can't offer this. It's just not going to happen. Ok, maybe it will, considering the NBA owns the Hornets and I could see that snake David Stern steering Paul to LA for nothing and then LA uses Gasol and Bynum for Howard. If so I'm giving up the NBA Bynum/Odom for Howard and Gasol for Paul. The Bulls, and others, can beat that package for Howard but if he won't sign an extension then those teams won't offer.

    Kobe's blood doping now. He'll be fine.

    Ugh, I have this horrible feeling that the Lakers are gonna pull that off.

    Yep. If the Bears aren't making the playoffs, I want the NFL to explode. If Tebow wins this one, I'm hoping he wins about 7 more in a row. Tebow winning the superbowl while ruining a perfect 19-0 season for GB is the most entertaining outcome to the NFL season i can imagine, short of the Bears winning of course. Hell yeah
  17. SpongeWorthy
    OK. Don't know who would replace Deng, but wouldn't really care at that point. Someone at the full MLE.
  18. SpongeWorthy
    Worst bowl season ever. Thank god for the NBA.
  19. SpongeWorthy
    I think the biggest problem in losing Forte is that we lose the screen and under neath passing game. Now Martz will continue to call 5-7 step drops with impunity.
  20. SpongeWorthy
    The Big 10 is crap.
  21. SpongeWorthy
    lol, that was easy
  22. SpongeWorthy
    No, I'm pretty sure only over-sensitive Cutler fans are going to say a word about Forte and his knee.
  23. SpongeWorthy
    Right, all the hysterical teeth gnashing over Tebow, Sancez, et. al. is just a dry, sober analysis of their abilities as of today.
  24. SpongeWorthy
    Nice flop Jones
  25. SpongeWorthy
    Evaluating the cornerstone position in the entire sport based on a vacuum sealed snap shot is useless.
