Euroleague should take these guys, too

There's been a lot of chatter about Josh Childress packing his bags and moving to Greece after signing with the Euroleague. I really don't feel this is the end of the world, and there's a few players I'd like to see join him, including ...

1. Ron Artest, for obvious reasons.

2. Kwame Brown, who has amounted to pretty much nothing and doesn't really deserve a dime ... oh, wait, hmm, it seems he just signed an $8 million deal with Detroit (how much you wanna bet Pistons fans are PISSED). Perhaps team president of basketball operations Joe Dumars' brain will kick in soon and they can figure out a way to trick Brown into going to Europe.

3. Drew Gooden, preferbly to a city with a good barber.

4. Jason Kapono, who I absolutely refuse to believe is of any value to an NBA team. And I'm not just saying this because he looks ridiculous in a headband.

5. Stephon Marbury, who I believe would relish the opportunity to set a new precedent in professional basketball, by averaging -1 assists. If anyone can do it, it's him.

6. Ben Gordon. This is Ice-9's personal pick, who's so fed up with Gordon for not signing a $10 mil per year contract when "he's not even worth $7?!" Also he's a streaky shooter, which can screw over your fantasy team. And it looks like he's really considering moving!

7. Joel Pyrzbilla. Yeah, he's a good guy and yeah, he's finally healthy but two years ago I drafted him onto my fantasy team and he did nothing for me, which caused me to lose the fantasy crown. What's worse, I lost the crown to my ex-boyfriend from the third grade! It was humiliating, and I'm still bitter. However, if someone can come up with a different player they'd liked to see shipped overseas, I'm open for suggestions.

8. Zach Randolph. He would be an easy whipping boy.

You're not a homer, Ms. Pick Seven and Eight were classic underachieving Blazers.

Did you miss Richard Deitsch's display for the last two weeks?

I say we ship Skooter to Europe!

I say we send Skoot to a gulag, but that's just my opinion and he should be in bed right now.

Dear Lindsay, I love you, do you love me? Oh yeah, I got Pyrzbilla and I'm up five in my league.

One other thought...you had a boyfriend in the third grade? Sounds like I need to have The Talk with my fourth-grader.

Now the truth comes out--the REAL reason why Lindsay hates fantasy leagues.

Send Jason Williams (aka White Chocolate) on the slowboat.

Throw in Joaquim Noah, if you can pick him up offthe floor . . .

Is there any particular reason you want to keep the rest of the NBA players here in the U.S.? I wouldn't miss most of them.

I'm going to have to channel a ghost here, and say that Tyler Hansbrough or whatever his name is, should go there. In fact, he should will it to happen. With all his flopping, he'll fit in perfectly with the football-crazed Europeans.
