Supposedly it's true. SOSH crashed right after the announcement, so I don't have any other info yet. In the immortal words of Butch Stearns- "I'm not so sure about that..." SOSH just deleted the post and closed the thread.

If the deal goes through w/o Jefferson, that would be the greatest coup in NBA history. That being said- I highly doubt it will.

The Boston Globe must be misinformed. There is no way this is true. That would be beyond insane.

I assume the starting five will be filled out with Rondo and Perkins, leaving hopefully Gomes and a healthy Allen to start the bench. Not a bad seven.

Yes.

Celtics and Wolves restart KG talk. According to WEEI, the deal is Jefferson, Ratliff, Gerald Green, Sebastian Telfair and a future draft pick for KG.

Mother fuckin' Legend Killer. Dude's been on his game lately, and Cena defeating everybody is making the title picture really stale. With any lucky, HHH/HBK will revive their DX shit when they come back, giving us at least a few months with Orton at the top.

That's good. The market needs more sellers.

When the hell did Rey come back? I am way out of it.

It's pretty hit-or-miss at the Cheesecake Factory for me. You know you're going to spend a lot of money there. But if you get good service, the food is usually worth it and, at least in my experience, the ambiance is enjoyable. However in the last excursion there, our waitress poured water onto my friend's shoes and spoke broken English with a thick Baltic accent. Normally, said lingual shortcomings are a requirement for the women who service my compatriot, but not when she was trying to explain the specials. I'd suggest picking up some cheesecake to go.

And the lesser known Canobie Lake Park in Salem, NH, approx. 45 minutes away.

Actually, the YouTube format was pretty slick. They had some solid questions, some funny moments and it was presented by what appeared to be competent individuals. Anderson Cooper did a decent job, too. As for the actual content of the debate- meh.

Jon Lester came back and had a good outing in a winning effort. Take that, cancer!

Going on one in a while. Never actually been on one. Any ideas about what to bring/what not to bring? I'm thinking some combination of sandwiches/salads, but also trying to impress. Suggestions? Stories?

Just wanted to make sure everyone knows that they made a movie together, when they were both regularly turning out great performances, that had a very good supporting cast and an excellent gunfight/getaway scene.

*Another movie together.

Is that who I sound like? Ugh. I retract my previous post and replace it with "Aww shucks."

McAdam, Verducci, Kurkjian, Olney and Gammons- and those are just baseball guys. Simmons' game is really lame- bash the Celtics, talk about his dad, gossip over celebrities, repeat. I wouldn't even call what he does sports writing.

...Have you ever met a Red Sox fan? What a stupid question. Is there any chance Bonds plays all three in Milwaukee?

JD Drew and the Red Sox just got fucking robbed, hardcore. Fuck Tim McClelland.

He made up for it with his last speech to Anakin.

I'd call it detrimental to player development. It makes sense from an agent's standpoint for Boras to try and extend Zito because he's already got his ridiculous contract. Someone like Hansen has absolutely no value since changing his mechanics- can't get paid with a 5.50 ERA in Pawtucket.

I know it's been said already, but Bill Simmons is a jackass. His "feud" with Jerry Remy is the latest in a long line of reasons he, and ESPN, both completely suck.

I always wondered why the cat in your avatar looked so pissed, Carnival.

That's pretty interesting. Boras is a badass as an agent, but fuck that guy for messing with mechanics. Stick to what you're good at.
