  1. Holmes is definitely getting a fat contract. Wouldn't be surprised to see Edwards leaving to get his last big contract. I hope the Bears take advantage of that, since he's unrestricted and a good bet to perform as a #1. I can't remember but I thought the whole TO outperformed Ochocinco was overblown because Chad garnered more of the defensive attention. I would be open to bringing him in, or someone like Plaxico, to see if they can have a resurgence.
  2. Surprised at no sex jokes.
  3. Muskat tweeted that Jackson is seeing a hand specialist in Chicago :banghead: :banghead: Don't get all negative yet. It's not like he was gonna go see Dr. Nick at Hollywood Upstairs Medical College.
  4. I was thinking that too. But his blazing fast game calling translates to perfect baserunning as well so we don't want people clogging up the bases ahead of him.
  5. That's gotta be pretty disappointing. Another year gone from the prime of his career. If he has a strong 2012 he will still make plenty of money.
  6. Ah, good timing to see the Dirk Nowitzki trade lolz reemerging.
  7. Hill, ugh. I'd rather see Todd Hundley's return.
  8. Could not have predicted this at the beginning of the season.
  9. Love the Bears draft so far. Paea is a beast.
  10. You should watch the boondocks itis episode whitey.
  11. I'm surprised a Bulls fan actually admitted this. Especially since he's going against LOL what's his name? You'll have to excuse us since we got your first coach fired. Thank you very very much for that.

  13. Foster laughs at Asik and anyone who says the word 'uppity'
  14. Bulls scored 16 in the paint. Regular season low was 26. Love the D. The Pacers players should thank the Bulls for not trying to score in the paint so as to not blow them out too bad.
  15. the bulls have played some of their worst basketball of the seaosn in this series, and they still haven't been able to win a single game. bulls have basically given them the gift of playing terribly and they still can't beat us. scrub team. Hahahaha. Yeah they're playing terribly. All of a sudden. Just coincidence. So idiotic.
  16. Clear winner for Hendry with this guy: http://rowlandsoffice.files.wordpress.com/2009/03/randall-simon.jpg
  17. I've been to about 15 Pacer games this season and tonight is the worst seat I've had all year. Was broke after going on vacation, so I'm up in the balcony. No matter. Pacers win tonight.
  18. Ya Gordon is off to a good start this season. Wood should be focused on getting his slow pitch softball league team together.
  19. It's okay Ryan, someone has to tell them.
  20. Paul George played some sick defense. 3 steals, 4 blocks and a team record 18 deflections. Kidding me? I have zero doubt this guy will be a legitimate DPOTY candidate for a long time. His offensive game is much farther behind but like I've been saying all year, the kid is gonna be an all star one day. Too bad Collison got hurt. The offense was never the same after he left, though Ford played pretty admirably after sitting for most of the season. Now let's take this to Conseco and guard Korver at the end of the game. And they can't be the Fighting Vogels without Vogel, so they need to extend him. No to Mike Brown.
  21. Well, Andy watched the game, and said not one of his FTs came on a phantom foul. So I don't know what to tell you. There's no such thing as superstar calls ask David Stern.
  22. I'm sure hoping his shooting percentages normalize is a smart defensive strategy in your book but it usually doesn't work out over a short stretch of games. i.e. Austin Croshere
  23. There's a big difference between allowing open 10 footers and open 22 footers. If the defense is keyed on making the opponent beat you with 15-23 footers, which is the lowest-percentage shot in the NBA, and the opponent makes 60+% of them, it's still not a bad strategy. Yes, Boozer can play him closer, but I'd still rather see Hansbrough taking long jumpers all day than Hansbrough driving by Boozer all day and getting actual high-percentage shots. Watching Hansbrough play all season his best options are to shoot the open midrange jumper or drive in and get fouled. If you want to consistently let him keep taking the open jumpers when he's making them then you might want to rethink that strategy. He has trouble with length closer to the paint. Play tight so he can't get off the jumper and don't foul him when you're contesting his shot in the lane.
