Posted Sunday July 27, 2008, About: Why Saban's happy he left NFL

"saban got banned from recruiting at my old high school,st thomas in ft laud because of how the whole shula/saban alabama thing went down..shulas kids went there and saban is now boycotted"

sucks to be a player at that school, who could possibly get a free 4-year scholarship to play at Alabama, but now wont because the coach is shortsighted and refuses to let the school come in. Im sure he is letting all the parents know that any player that is now not recruited, he will pay their way through college since he is limiting their options.

Hey Noles,

They cant afford Cmaby's salary. Crittendon is a better passer and defender, and at 6'5", can defend bigger PG's better than smurf Jameer Nelson. And with Battie coming back to play PF, they just might be better. Maybe not, but Battie will definitely help on the defensive side.

all you have to do is listen to him talk and hear how humble he is. He appears to have been one of the few this season that had his head on straight.

Posted Sunday June 08, 2008, About: Plummer, Bucs fighting over $7 million

actually he does. If you get a signing bonus, it is spread out over your contract. If you retire early, they can ask for a pro-rated portion back. Ask Barry Sanders, Elvis Grbac, etc

Posted Wednesday June 04, 2008, About: Pistons' big-name stars may be traded

The only problem with thinking about trading Sheed is, who wants him? He is nearing the end of his career and he carries a lot of baggage with his blow ups. No one is going to give up anything of worth for the timebomb that is Rasheed Wallace.

Posted Monday March 17, 2008, About: No contract regrets for Gordon

Hey 'real GM of basketball',

you realize NBA doesnt draft beyond 2nd round anymore, right? so no 3rd round picks.

Posted Friday February 15, 2008, About: Kidd deal will take some time

EVeryone in Dallas should be kissing George's butt. This is a horrendous deal for Dallas. A host of players, and 2 picks, for a 35 yr old PG who maybe has 1-2 years left on him? Cuban had to go on a 3 day bender before agreeing to this. Kidd cant shoot, and he cant keep up with fast guards. Tony Parker and Steve Nash are praying this deal goes thru, because Kidd just cant keep up with them.

Posted Monday February 11, 2008, About: QB passes on Saban for Spurrier

Hmm, because Spurrier puts all those QB's in the NFL.

Posted Wednesday January 16, 2008, About: Rodriguez denies shredding files

so he flirts with alabama, supposedly accepts the job, then goes back to WVU with a higher contract, then WVU is rewarded by him skipping out the very next year before their bowl game, after he blew the PItt game, then he takes players files. His recruits always seem to be in trouble with the law, maybe WVU got a favor by him leaving, he doesnt seem to be that great a person.

Posted Tuesday January 15, 2008, About: Longhorns may hire Applewhite

so Brown, who benched a better Applewhite for Chrissy Simms, and then had to insert Applewhite back into games to pull his chestnuts out of the fire more than once, thinks Applewhite would come back...to work under him. Wow, i would be surprised to see that happen. Im sure Major still has the tread marks from all the times Brown threw him under the bus.

Posted Thursday January 10, 2008, About: Book points finger at Bush

no surprise here. The only surprise is how the NCAA and their investigators havent found anything wrong with it. But USC is the media darling and basically LA's NFL team. Short of a smoking gun, bloody fingerprints, a confession, and 50 eye witnesses, the NCAA will determine that nothing happened here and move on.

hard to argue with his logic.

WEll said, Vikingfan, i was just thinking the same thing

Posted Monday December 17, 2007, About: Bear's soap-opera legal battle

She gets $250/week, and she is complaining that she wants more because he makes more. I didnt hear her complain when she was getting a condo, rental car and credit paid for by him. Sounds like she just wants the easy life.

Posted Thursday October 11, 2007, About: Paterno's road rage incident

i didnt know people his age are still allowed to drive

Posted Monday September 10, 2007, About: USC's treatment irritates OU fans

The teams that self report a never let off lightly. And the teams that don't, USC, or how about Tennessee giving money to Tee Martin while he was in school, nothing happens to them.

Posted Monday September 10, 2007, About: Wolverines RB guarantees win over Irish

You should be thrown out of whatever league you are in if you guarantee a win and your team doesn't. That would stop all these stupid guarantees. Hey Hart, look in your own house. Hope you can back up that guarantee with you 2nd string, now starting QB.

Couldnt be two more different coaches. I doubt the Warrior players are too exceited about this
