  1. I play on pokerroom.com
  2. Is this whole thing a work? http://thematthardy.com/phpBB/viewtopic.ph...der=asc&start=0
  3. Yeah, and Jermaine O'Neal didn't get any meaningful run until his FIFTH FUCKING year, after he left the team that drafted him. Rashard Lewis wasn't getting any time til his third year. T-Mac was playing 15-20 minutes a night his first two years. This same "formula" you've used to identify busts applies to guys who are all-stars right now, making your observations relatively meaningless. But see that's the problem. They do nothing for the first 4, 5 years of their career. They could go to college for a couple of years and come in ready to play right away. Chandler and Curry are busts to this point. If you are taken that high you are expected to be an elite player. Chandler is barely decent and Curry is just OK. They MIGHT turn out to be great and just need more time like Jermaine O'Neal, but that's the whole reason for the age restriction being needed. These guys pollute the league sucking ass because they have no idea what to do and should be playing college ball. They're all slashers who can't shoot and can't play defense they really have brought down the quality of play in the NBA.
  4. The Celtics really like Kendrick Perkins, and have had the luxury of bringing him along slow, so he's hardly a bust. Chandler and Curry are major reasons for the Bulls looking like a playoff team this year, so it's hard to call them busts either. Swift and Telfair are ROOKIES, how the fuck can you call them busts already?!? And ditto JR and Josh Smith. Jermaine O'Neal was "just a dunker" when he came out, I don't hear anyone calling him a bust. Bottom line, if you're good enough to play, and a team wants to draft you, then it's all good. If a team makes a mistake and drafts a guy who doesn't have what it takes, if they push a guy who into a role he isn't ready for, or if they mishandle a guy and don't provide the proper environment for them to develop that's THEIR fault, the team's, not the system's. When practically half of the top of the line players in the league jumped straight from High School it's hard to say the system is broken. EDIT* and Charles "Bo" Outlaw went to college, unless you're talking about another guy with the same name.... I'm sure every team likes their rookie or they wouldn't draft him. I probably shouldn't call him a bust yet but he definitely has done nothing of note. Chandler is a bust, IMO. He's in his 4th year now and is only a decent player at best. He can rebound and defend good enough, but he shows no potential to ever get much better on the offensive end. As far as Curry, he's developed into a solid player, but he's nowhere near the dominant "Baby Shaq" he was hyped to be. He also puts no effort into rebounding or defending. I said Swift and Telfair aren't busts YET but are well on their way. They are following the same formula of the other busts(little to no playing time, and when they do get on the floor just completely sucking ass.) JR Smith and Josh Smith aren't busts yet either, but like I said, are basically Darius Miles clones, they have no game at all aside from dunking. They can become better in the future but are on a path right now to bustdom. And I was talking about Travis Outlaw.
  5. double post
  6. No, more than two, but that was all that I could name off the top of my head. actually, if you look at the players drafted between 1995(the year KG started this whole thing back up) and 2000, 13 players declaired themselves eligible and 9 of them: Garnett, Bryant, McGrady, Jermaine O'Neal, Rashard Lewis, Al Harrington, Darius Miles, Jonathan Bender and DeShawn Stevenson all remain in the league contributing to their teams in some way with 7 of them being damn fine players, at least above average by NBA standards. Leon Smith and Korleone Young were gone with in a year, although Leon came back a few times after his brushes with the law, which would have happened had he been in college. Taj McDavid and Ellis Richardson weren't drafted, but they couldn't get the scores to get into college and they weren't that good anyway. So in those 5 years, they are 9-4 on good to bad. After that, I can think of Amare Stoudemire, Lebron James, Travis Outlaw, Nbudi Ebi, Kedrick Perkins, Dwight Howard, Shaun Livingston, Robert Swift, Sebastian Telfair, Al Jefferson, Josh Smith, J.R. Smith, Dorell Wright, Kwame Brown, Tyson Chandler, Eddie Curry, and Desagna Diop. I can hosnetly say, outside of Diop, you would be hard pressed to name any of the rest of them flops. Brown, Outlaw, Ebi, Perkins and Chandler are busts. Curry also is to some extent. If Robert Swift and Sebastian Telfair continue at their shit pace they will be busts. JR Smith and Josh Smith are just dunkers, they have really no basketball skill at all aside from that, so I would consider them to be just another couple of Darius Miles clones.
  7. Anyone that believes that is real needs to get their ass beaten.
  8. For me it's Extreme Makeover: Home Edition(even though that host annoys the piss out of me). This show is just so awesome though. I even shed a tear tonight when they built that house for the little girl with cancer ....ahem... I mean uhhh.. no i didn't... i never cry!! <fixes tie and runs away>
  9. Kimmy Gibbler wasn't even on there, what a joke.
  10. Tori the Butch Biker chick during her one season with Saved by the Bell. She was just brutal. The retarded stoner/skater/wannabe rockstar/living in the backyard in a van cousin of the family on Step By Step. Forgot his name, but his character just blew ass. George Lopez's mom in the George Lopez show.
  11. Is the rumor true that Mean Gene used to walk around the back with Cocaine and offer it to WWF Female Employees if they'd have sex with him at his hotel? I've read that a few different places.
  12. Kramer Balky(Perfect Strangers) Al Bundy Bart Simpson Cartman
  13. Hopefully he'll be back to the mid-card.
  14. Maybe(hopefully) they're putting him in with UT just so UT can stiff him and beat the shit out of him.
  15. Before his death he had what I would call 4 classic albums(Makaveli, All Eyez On Me, Me Against the World and Thug Life Vol. 1). The stuff released after his death should not matter at all. As someone has said, it's because of his sex appeal to women. He has not had much quality music at all during those 21 years. .... Ever since Nas destroyed him you can't say he's the King of NY. His albums haven't been all that great anyway. The only great albums he's ever had are Reasonable Doubt and The Blueprint. The Black Album was OK too I guess.
  16. How is LL even in this argument? Here's how I'd rank them 1. 2Pac 2. Rakim 3. Nas 4. BIG 5. Ras Kass
  17. Here's a very very very detailed report from MarksFriggin.com, including the questions she didn't know Here's some pictures It was hilarious, they were really tearing into her. She kept blaming her lack of knowledge on the WWE travel schedule and Artie goes "Remind me not to ever travel again, it obviously makes you retarded". She was a good sport about it all though.
  18. In this ladder match considering the IC title is not on the line, wtf is the point of a ladder being involved? What are they grabbing at the top of the ladder?
  19. A question about the ladder match(es) at WM.... how do you have a ladder match with no titles? I thought the whole object was to climb and grab a belt.
  20. I don't really know how ticket sales work but I find it odd that ticket sales for WM 21 are still available on Ticketmaster, does WWE just release more tickets as it gets closer to the show or is it just going to be a really low turnout?
  21. I'm shocked that Coral isn't on this one.
  22. It isn't like that, the person with the addiction agrees to be on the show. Basically the first 45 minutes of the show is just them talking about their life, how it used to be, how it is now, etc. They just don't know they are going to be confronted to go to rehab.
  23. 4
  24. Surprised there isn't a thread about this, it debuted tonight on A&E. Basically they take 2 people who are addicted to something(drugs, gambling, etc.) and follow their life story, and at the end their family/friends confront them with the help of a Professional Interventionist. Tonight's episode had this chick who was a former white house intern who became addicted to morphine and crack from a guy she was dating. She moved back in with her parents and was stealing pills and stuff from her dad who was dying because he had some disease(forgot what he was). The other person on the show was this former stockbroker who was pulling in 100,000+ a year and was basically living like a king, he was addicted to cocaine and it drained all his funds and led to him being homeless. Eventually they got confronted and sent to the rehab center and have been clean for about 3 months now. It's a really powerful show, I suggest you guys watch it. Sunday's at 10 on A&E.
  25. Oh yeah I think you're right, I forgot about that.
