to quote you earlier: "snore..."

Posted Sunday March 02, 2008, About: Injuries mounting on Galaxy tour

LOL. Yet you clicked on the link. Remarkable.

Sucks for the Galaxy, a team that could compete on an international scale, but can't seem to get over the proverbial hump. Age is catching up...

Posted Tuesday June 19, 2007, About: Kobe to Knicks, LeBron to Lakers?

Kobe's staying in L.A. The Lakers will turn down anything short of percieved equal trade. He'll moan and complain, then turn compliant.

Posted Tuesday May 15, 2007, About: Did Amare leave Suns bench?

LF:

DEAD on. I could give a "you know what" about what others think. That was smart, and hard, basketball. Yes, I'm a Spurs fan. But, more importantly, I'm a fan of hard-nosed defense in any sport...as long as it's fair. Horry paid the price, and so should Amare and Diaw according to the letter of the NBA law. If the Suns think it's not fair, oh well. Rules are rules, right?

Posted Monday May 14, 2007, About: Will Cowboys re-sign Julius?

They won't keep him. Some RB desperate team (like to Packers, maybe?) will feed JJ obsecene money to come and play. It's the way of the mid-tier free agent.

Posted Monday May 14, 2007, About: Ex-Raiders coordinator rips Moss

If a team can turn the bozo around, it's the Pats. Moss, as rueful as I feel mentioning this, is a talent. He's also not been on the most structured of teams in his career. While Moss was in town, the "Viking boat party" and the Raiders (nuff said) couldn't train a puppy to comply much less a selfish reciever on his own terms. Tom Brady, not to mention Coach B, won't put up with his you-know-what very long. I have a funny feeling he'll be productive, or out of a job.

Posted Monday May 14, 2007, About: NBA investigating Bowen's tactics

Let's face it...every team has a Bruce Bowen. This kind of stunt happens in every game. Bowen's job (let's face it, he is the defensive stopper ont he team) has just been shed some extra light because of Amare Stoudawhiner. If the NBA wants to investigate, that's fine (no pun intended), but there's a whole LOT more cases to check out if they do. It's called hard basketball...and it's the playoffs. (See face foul on Manu).

Posted Monday May 07, 2007, About: Super Bowl moving to foreign soil?

Not against the idea of moving...BUT

the time difference and location out of the US will bring a decrease in revenue from advertisers and ticket holders alike...VERY bad idea.
