Amare and Dwight Howard go at each other tonight and it gets no national coverage. DAMMIT.

As stupid as changing the ball was in the first place, changing it mid season is even dumber. Just change it back next year. Geez.

Jeepers Creepers is one of the worst movies I've ever seen, at no point in the movie did the words great, good, decent or anything other than "shit", cross my mind. THANK GOD someone agrees with me about Jeepers Creepers. To me, the only good thing about that movie is the camera work early in the film. When the guy is talking and you can see the truck WAAAAYYY off in the background coming back...it built some kick ass tension. That is where it ended. I hated that movie with a passion.

Mr. and Mrs. Smith for me. They were supposed to die at the end when they came out the shed and there is no convinceing me otherwist that at some point that script was changed. No way in hell they were supposed to live. The ending of Last Samari too. So you mean to tell me that all the warriors in the village go off with the white guy that was fighting for the enemies army like 2 years earlier, and only he comes back and everyone is all accepting that? Comeon. Everyone on that field should have died. Cruise being the ONLY one to survive was ridiculous.

And just to add, Drew Gooden was the number 4 pick overall and got traded his rookie year. ANd he was averaging 14 points and almost 8 rebounds a game at the time and shooting 50 percent from the field. So its not like he was a bust. Tyrus in comparison is averaging 4 points and 3 rebounds a game. I guess my point is...yeah...he is very tradeable.

Charlie had just finished his rookie year. And a much better rookie year than anyone could expect out of Tyrus Thomas. You are going to sit here and say that a team wouldn't trade a rookie for a top 50 player of all time? Come on. Thats not what makes Chicago making this trade unbelievable. What does would be the signing of Hinrick to that extension and him needing the ball to be effective. The problem is that Chicago lacks a inside offensive presence and that is what is holding them up. I don't see them trading for..well...basically a more consistant Ben Gordon who is a better playmaker and plays passing lanes. But they would give up Deng and Tyrus Thomas and PJ Brown in a second to get Kevin Garnett right now without thinking about it. I personally don't see where Iverson could go right now. Nobody can really match salaries. Unless Orlando wanted to send Grant hill and some other players to philly for allen, but I just don't see Thorpe doing that. Minnesota would have to give up so much that the team would still suck. Although Randy Foye HAS to be a shining pretty bright to Philly. At then end of the day though, here is my guess. Ray Allen and Danny fortson have big ass salaries and could match Philly for Iverson...might be his destination. And Philly could do worse.

I agree with Randy Foye. Every time I see him out there for real minutes he is always productive and giving a boost to the team. I would bench Mike James for him without flinching. Whats worse, they can't trade James because of that big contract, but they won't bench him...because of that big contract. Randy Foye looks like Dwayne Wade lite out there and he is riding pine for no reason other than the guy ahead of him getting paid a boatload of money. If Keith Van Horn could be traded making over 15 million. Minny wont have a problem trading Mike at the deadline. Pistons have a glaring roster hole he could fill Mike has 4 years left on his contract. Keith Van Horn was a end of contract guy, which always makes you tradable. The thing I liked about Balkman was when Houston played the Knicks, Isaiah put him on Yao after Eddy Curry kept getting abused and he did a damn good job which was incredible to me. Balkman is more like Rodman in skills but he is missing a little bit of energy. LIke, merge him and Ronny Turiaf and you have the next Rodman. I have been talking about Thabo Seflosha since the draft and I really REALLY wanted him in Phoenix. The guy is going to be a special player for real. He is great defensively and he is only going to get better and offensively, he can really handle and see like a point, but can play 3 differnet positions. Now that I think about it, this is just going to be a slow burn rookie class. I think that you have alot of talent well into the second round in this year that will be making a major difference in years to come.

Never really said much to me, but you no one can deny that he had a presence. Venni Vetti Vecci was undeniably the shit though.

Calvin Johnson will be there in the top 3 picks anyway. Honestly if you had to choose between him and williamson, who would you take.

I think once dwayne Casey gets his head out of his ass, Randy Foye is going to be the jewel of this rookie class. Bargnani is also suffering from a coach with head up the assdom. It might be homerdome talking but Sheldon Williams is actually going to be a pretty good player in the league. Adam Morrison, he just has to figure out he NBA game. He is trying too hard honestly. Besides them, I say that Kyle Lowery, Rajon Rando Brandon Roy and Lamarcus Aldridge will all have very good careers. The only thing holding them back right now is either injuries (Lowery, Roy) or the guy playing in front of them (Rando, Aldridge).

From the AJC today: All this time I am thinking Michael Vick doesn't audible because, well...he sucked at it, and this interview along with one that was given on the news today reveils that the offensive coordinator doesn't believe in it. On the news report, he said they don't even have them written in the offense. This all came from the touchdown pass on sunday in which vick rewrote the play in the huddle without the coachs knowing and now its some kinda story down here. But goddamn. What offensive coordinator in thie millinum doesn't believe in audibles?

You can't really compare them... When it comes to hooks, Nate Dogg is the GOAT in my opinion. True. I will give you that. But you want to know who is number two hook wise IMO? Ja fucking Rule. Think about it. That dude sold millions of albums based completely on his hooks and his hooks along.

That little flip shot that luke ridinor has is going to make him a allstar one day.

I am going to need Joe Johnson to get a little more vocal. The refs anally rape him nightly and he keeps this nice guy act going on. He is legitimately a superstar in this league now, and you would think the guy could get foul call inside. But sitting on your ass isnt going to get it done. He's gotta let it be known and stop letting his teammates and coaches do the arguing for him.

No. I was inspired to get a cat after saving the little grey kitten. Got these two like less than a week later.

There is nothing straight about this. Plus the look she wants, this is too sloppy so I will have to have a more fitted look to all this. And seroiusly, I don't know about whre you are from, but here in Atlanta where there are plenty of guys on the search for man ass, there are just certain fashion styles that are truely meant to say "Hey, I am gay. Appoach me." And here, in atlanta, this is one of them. So I will prepare to be hit on alot, and say "no, sorry, I am straight" at least 5-6 times wearing this outfit.

They are big ass dogs. Its like the anti foo foo dog that some people have(no offense little dog owners). Yet it won't fuck your shit up in your place like a great dane would. I guess its "manly"
-
Didn't like 6-7 players ask to be traded last year? Or was that just ESPN fluffing up the article to make it seem worse than it was?

I think I just threw up a little bit... If she had requested me wear those big ugly gay sunglasses that guys are wearing now, then I would just have to put my foot down.

I only have to get gifts for my girlfriend so I guess it will be a coach bag and this dress that she likes from guess. She also is always on me about how I dress and how she wants me to have this other look (which in my opinion looks really really gay). So I am getting this gay ass outfit to wear and making dinner that day so she can see me dressed the way she wants me to dress. So I will be wearing some gay ass sweater with a gay ass collar shirt underneath with some gay ass jeans and some fucking dress shoes. To anyone that dress like this and you aren't gay, I aplogize in advanced for saying you dress homosexually. But it is quite homosexualerific. But if that is what she wants she will get it. ONCE.

Boo sleeping. He is the asshole of the two meaning the one that runs like a psycho, will walk up and slap a glass of the table just for the hell of it and stands on your face when you are sleep to prove he is the domniant one. This is Moo. He is alot cuter than this picture shows though...its just a fucked up picture but the only one I have. He is the fat one that doesn't move except to attack Boo when he gets to assholish.

I was here way before the switch. I was Rest on the other board, and I posted some but not really that much. Basically just remember pornfaq and of course...calling Scott Keith ugly.

Where does Scott Skiles factor into the Chandler > Wallace inequality? Because Scott Skiles has got to get over that "You made one mistake so I will sit you." crap. It makes players uptight and make them try too freakin hard. I have always said, Scott is/was a great assistant coach in Phoenix. He was still just as tough, buit had Danny Ainge there to reign him in when got overboard. Then he became head coach and would pull players for 2-3 quarters because of a couple of turnovers. Or have a different player in his "doghouse" like every week. But the guy just plain alienates his players and makes them not be able to play loose and free because they are constantly looking over their shoulder to make sure that coach isn't going to pull them. I can say he has gotten better which is to be expected after phoenix being his first spot, but still. He mixes with young players like Larry Brown. I am saying this because Chandler is with Byron Scott now who won't pull you for any goddamned thing. I mean seriously, Jason Collins kept his starting spot even though every backup they had in Jersey at the time outplayed him. Chandler now has the confidence to go after it without thinking that coach will punish him if he screws up.
