The Electrifyer

Amazing Race 5 premiers tonight after Big Brother. My prediction: Bob Barron gets eliminated tonight.

He turned 19 shortly after the Pistons won the championship I think.

Gordon Giricek and Mehmet Okur have reached verbal agreements with the Jazz: http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2004/bask...r.ap/index.html Looks like its time for Darko to step it up and replace Okur in Detroit!

Tim's reaction to Gerald's test is GOLD.

I was thinking the same thing. He should just say Colonel Ingus instead.

Hahaha... thats great. This fax thing and secrets thing is from that Meet the Parents reality show on NBC. They did almost the exact same things there.

They're only super when they make the playoffs. Right now, they're just regular Sonics.

Trade Allen to Toronto for Vince Carter. PLEASE!

Good... get rid of him. As for Nash, I was kinda hoping he'd stay with Dallas or sign with Toronto. Phoenix I guess felt they had no chance with Kobe and went for Nash instead. A little pricey, but good move. I wonder how many free agents Atlanta can sign now.

Spreewell opts to stay in Minny: http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/news?slug=fanb...nball&type=lgns

The question of whether its purple or blue is debatable, but stop calling it gold... just say "yellow", goddamnit.

Bye bye Karl, may you always remember that Darko Millicic has more championship rings than you.

NBA Live 2004: I was playing as Detroit vs. Sacramento in my dynasty season. I've been struggling to beat Sac for a while and already lost in my last two tries (every time I lost, I just didn't save). In the first 3 quarters and up to about 2 mins left in the fourth, I was killing Sacramento as Detroit. My lead was 10 points with 2 mins left when all of a sudden Sacto gets friggin hot as HELL behind the three point line. Bibby and Peja hit three 3's in those last 2 mins. The stupid goddamned Sacrmento defense got 100x harder in those last minutes and all I could manage was to hit 1 free throw. But with about 7 secs left, I still had a 2 point lead and Valde Divac's had the ball. I was thinking, "well, at least this game is going to be winable" but the most IMPOSSIBLE thing happened as Vlade pulled up to the three point line and hits a 3 over Ben Wallace with 0.6 secs left. That was the biggest screw job ever, as I couldn't manage to score with 0.6 left and Sac won. Now onto my third try to beat them...

Hopefully not, T-Mac isn't Kobe. T-Mac wanted to be the number 1 man in Orlando, but now that he sees he can't carry a team and has said he wants to be the man on a team with another man (something like that), he and Yao could co-exist quite successfully. Now lets see if the Rockets can sign Derek Fisher.

Somebody give Chris Bosh the Ben Wallace workout routine and he'll become that legit centre the Raps need.

Not until August 11th. There's pics of them in NBA Live 2004, but I don't know how accurate they are.

I loved the gimmicked Dodgeball teams they created. I wish we actually got to see Team M.I.L.F., though.

I don't like the old Jazz jersey's with the rocky mountains. I thought the alternative away jersey with the dark blue background and word "Jazz" written across it was cool. They should have just added a new white home jersey in that style if they wanted to revamp.

Oh god... why must the Bulls continue to stockpile on youth? The whole damn roster is filled with rookies and players who only excel when traded away.

Damn... what a 2nd rate Dream Team. Some good talent, but mostly unproven, not yet winners. Have them take on Dream Team I and we'd see a certifiable ass whooping.

I hope this doesn't go through. Hinrich is the best thing the Bulls have right now, him Chandler and Crawford aren't worth it. Pippen isn't gonna be playing, but I'd still like to see him stay in Chicago.

As long as Shaq weighs 300+ pounds, he will be dominant. Do the trade and shake up the NBA!

Funny thing is, I'm pretty sure he is Canadian. He did host his own show on a Canadian channel. I only saw the first episode of Shmoe 2 last night, did anyone notice they played The Mole music in the pearl necklace ceremony? That was a mark-out moment for me since I love that show.

Dallas isn't going anywhere with there current lineup. This trade could actually do them some good. Now, they will finally get a big man to compete down low in the West and provide some D when he feels like it (but "when he feels like it" is still better than the defense they currently have). Giving away Jamison and Howard is fine. Marquis Daniels is pretty much the same as or even better than Howard. Jamison hasn't done much that will harm Dallas if he's gone. All the Mav's need to do now is make sure they get Nash back and they have a good chance of improving.

Payton's gonna be back in Lakerland next year. I'm sure LA's just rejoicing now at the good news: http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2004/bask...n.ap/index.html
