According to Mike and the Mad Dog, Marbury has apparently left the Knicks, but is welcome to come back and play tonight. There was a report going around saying that he was going to get bought out or have his minutes decreased.

http://www.baseballwriters.org/awards/2007/2007_AL_cy.html It wasn't even that close. I'm not sure what the guy who didn't have C.C. on his ballot was watching this past year.

I'm guessing some people were impressed by this line in the page you linked to, "Tampa Bay Devil Rays outfielder Delmon Young (was) the AL rookie leader in RBI (93), hits (186), total bases (263) and outfield assists (16)".

'94 -'96 New York fans? In '94 the Knicks were one John Starks benching away from winning an NBA title and the Rangers finally won the Stanley Cup. The Knicks were still contenders the next couple of years. Two years later the Yankees went on to win 127 straight world series games or whatever the hell that streak was. Our football teams sucked ass, but everything else was good from the summer of 1994 until October 1996.

A couple of quickies. I dunked a basketball over a 6'1 or 6'2 kid on a put back a few weeks before my 16th birthday. I was only 5'7 at the time. Best sports feeling ever. I threw a college regulation football at least 60 yards on the fly as a sophomore in HS. Our football field had the yardage numbers and I was known for having a strong throwing arm, so on a bet I stood at midfield and would get 3 throws. If all 3 landed in the endzone I'd win $20, the first one barely made it in, the second one landed somewhere in the middle of it, and the last one carried the back end of it and landed another 2-4 yards past it. Needless to say the football team wanted me to try out for QB, but I preferred to be a receiver since I really wasn't tall enough to play QB as mentioned earlier. Secondly, I made 4 straight shots from different spots along the halfcourt line while wearing a winter coat and a full bookbag. One from the left OOB line, one from dead center, one from the right OOB line, and then another from the left before rimming out on the 2nd attempt from straight on. Won $20 for making two out of 3 which was the original bet, and doubled it to $40 for the 3rd straight shot. The guy I was betting stopped after that one, but it felt good to make the next one anyway. Going to school with rich kids who had disposable cash and having a knack for idiotic feats of athleticism was my favorite thing about high school. The last one I can remember was squatting 315 when I weighed about 140 or 145. That one made me $40 as I had 4 bets of $10 that I wouldn't even be able to get the bar off of the rack. This one was kind of like cheating though since I'd squatted 315 before, but I still took the money. Incidentally, the guy I dunked on tried to squat the weight and almost killed himself as he teetered backwards and almost forgot to let go of the bar as it was carrying him down. From that point on no one was allowed to squat more than 200 lbs even if they had 2 spotters. That poor guy was really clumsy and took so much abuse for being my personal bitch in every sport we played.

Nice to see that A-Rod finally got that postseason monkey off of his back. Jeter was as awesome as always too.
-
Or you could go with a more recent spoof, sucb as "If you're still a Cubs fan, I feel bad for you son It's been 99 YEARS since the Cubbies won."

I said they COULD choke away the 2 1/2 game lead they have at the moment in the next few weeks now that Phoenix knows they have a chance to get the 1 seed and avoid having to play Dallas/San Antonio until the WCF. I didn't say losing 2 times since January was choking.
-
Never said that, but they certainly choked away the game tonight in the last 30 seconds, and it's conceivable that they could find themselves as the # 2 seed in 2 1/2 weeks considering that Phoenix isn't losing much these days either. Had they won tonight I don't see how Phoenix could have made up 5 games in the last 20 unless they ran the table. Ending up +3 over 20 games, is not that difficult especially with Phoenix having 2 more home games left than the Mavs.
-
There are 4 championship caliber teams right now, Dallas, Phoenix, San Antonio and the Eastern Conference team that survives that JV league and won't have to beat 2 of them to win the title. The only way I see Phoenix winning it all is if they somehow get the 1 seed and don't have to beat both Texas teams just to make the Finals. Dallas however could just choke a 2 1/2 game lead away by the end of March though so we'll see.
-
I noticed they missed 2 free throws in the last minute and Josh Howard decided to be Chris Webber and commit a cardinal no-no in the last 20 seconds by fouling an off balance Nash 25 or so feet from the hoop. The Mavs did their best to give Phoenix the chance to come back in regulation, and paid for it for being 'tards.

I'm gonna guess this one end when Dirk misses a FT to tie it.
-
Dirk is reverting to 2006 NBA Finals Choketastic Dirk.
-
Steve Nash is the greatest player that ever lived. We are just fortunate to be alive in this era to witness his majesty.
-
He was never not going to win it this year. Now the Suns = Retards
-
Right now dialidol has Sanjaya sitting comfortably in 3rd behind the big 2 w/Brandon, Blake, Sligh and Stephanie all in severe danger of going home tomorrow. This shit's retarded.
-
About 6 people should be thanking Brandon for being the only black dude to ever fail so miserably on Motown week that he eliminated himself.
-
I don't think Jordin did herself any favors there. This sounded like a Disney theme park/Disneyland commercial performance to me. All we needed was Mickey Mouse in the corner and Tinkerbell flying through the skies as the website and phone number showed on the bottom of the screen.
-
Thank you Simon. How do Paula and Randy not HEAR that what Richardson is singing is always crap?
-
Stephanie's in trouble. I don't think she'll go home tomorrow but she may be in the bottom 2/3. I forget what the number is at this stage in the competition. Chris Richardson's voice is TERRIBLE.
-
Blake and Sligh are the only two guys who are worth anything this season. I wouldn't have had a problem with 10 girls and the two of them in the top 12.
-
Gina could go far if she didn't suck and oversing everything in trying to compete with Lakisha & Melinda. Blake and Phil are the only two guys who didn't kill themselves tonight.
-
The big 2 continue to murder these kids.
-
Phil's probably #2 on the night right now, but that's not really saying much.
