Posted Friday May 08, 2009, About: Agent: 76ers job would interest Collins
Now it's Collins and the 76'ers. Before that a TNT analyst had the Knicks job lined up. Then Van Gundy should be this or that. This is all about TNT getting press. Fratello is another one. The only guy who made it was Doc Rivers. Otherwise they're all losers as coaches and should stick with commentating. Personally, I'd like to see Collins retire. He's a has-been.
Posted Monday October 27, 2008, About: Isiah headed back to work
To Epoch1 who said in his post:

"Isiah is a disgrace to professional sports. An ignorant, racist, sexist pig who doesn't know shyte about basketball team management. And he's a wuss to boot. get rid of his sorry arse ASAP.

Well said! Enough about this loser!
Posted Tuesday September 16, 2008, About: Referee Hoculi's future in doubt?
Ed Hochuli is one of the best refs there is. Whenever I see he's assigned to a game, I know it will be called fair (whomever I'm rooting for).

To the NFL execs or Referee committee: Your fans like this guy cause he's fair and does his job well. He's one of your all time best at what he does. Act like men and stand behind him.
Posted Saturday September 06, 2008, About: Why Pistons distance from Isiah
The league turned a blind eye to Isiah's troubles the past two years for some reason (does he have dirt on the front office?). And in turn, they let a legendary franchise get tarnished forever. Shame on Isiah. Shame on the league for not jumping in and suspending him early on. Bad guy...bad story. If I never read another story on him it would be great!

Please...please...stop the Malone stories! ! !

Actuelly tom so did Jordan, in fact he started it... and miller, rip, billups, T-mac... ect... thanks 4 the useless imput

Malone's a bum. While you're proclaiming him a god, use a spellchecker for your "Actuelly...useless imput" comments. You spell like you're from Arkansas, just like Malone.

He can teach them to kick their feet!

Look at ANY film footage of Malone and you'll see him kicking at his opponents when he jumps up. For rebounds, going for a loose ball, whatever, whenever, he used his legs as lethal weapons and many an opponent still carry the scars. Was it against the rules? I guess not as the NBA never did anything about it. But he caused many an injury.

I'm glad the thug doesn't play anymore. Let him stay on the farm and beat up on his pigs!
Posted Friday August 22, 2008, About: Did Tiki get offensive on air?
Kinda funny hearing Tiki talk about gold medals as if he won a Super Bowl (not!). The guy is in way over his head. Did he say it? Look at the reactions:

1. Brian Williams ignoring it (like the primetime pro he is)
2 Jenna's eyes and body language changes bigtime (can't deny that)
3. The words being repeated "count...count...count" (back at the home studio)

Get the "can't win it all, blame your team, pretty boy" off primetime please!
Posted Tuesday August 19, 2008, About: Leadbetter rips Wie's family
She's from Hawaii, she's a female, looks good, and can be marketed. It's all about playing good and making money while you do it. Unfortunately she can't play the game as good as her handlers want and/or need her too. In turn the big paychecks are dwindling.
Posted Thursday August 14, 2008, About: Fatigued Favre wants fewer throws
must have worn himself out running those penalty laps

Second best comment, except I might have said: must have worn himself out waving to his fans!
Posted Wednesday August 06, 2008, About: Report: Pack trading Favre to Bucs
Well, I'm outta here as I've got to go out a find a new job. Think the Packers or Bucs will hire an old IT guy who's also an NFL fan? And I'll cheer for whomever they want me to cheer for.

BTW; $20 million will sure get my attention. Heck, a couple of game tickets will get my attention!
Posted Wednesday August 06, 2008, About: Report: Pack trading Favre to Bucs
hey jackman,

yep it looks like we're building up for the new season!
Posted Wednesday August 06, 2008, About: Report: Pack trading Favre to Bucs
The basic story for us everyday working class types?

1. A worker makes millions in salary from his employer. The worker announces his retirement, has a big going away party on TV, then leaves on his jet. The employer prepares for the future as they must do.
2. The worker changes his mind about retirement and wants to work again. The employer prepares to welcome him back. At the last minute, the worker changes his mind about retirement and says no I'm retiring. The employer moves on as they must do.
3. The worker changes his mind again about retirement and says I want to go back to work...in my old job with no questions asked. The employer says we can't do that cause we've moved on. But we'll pay you a severance of $20 million. The worker turns down the $20 million offer.
4. The worker then rides to the worksite on his jet. Under pressure, the employer now says okay he can work, but they need a committment from him just like before. The worker won't commit. Meanwhile all the other workers in the company are sweating and putting in lots of overtime hours in the hottest part of the job.

All I can say before I leave the house is: I wish me, a common working man like those who are reading this, had a company that would pay me millions over the years, then offer me millions to stay retired!

Now can anybody disagree with that statement?
Posted Wednesday August 06, 2008, About: Report: Pack trading Favre to Bucs
Everyone looses except the owners of the team he gets traded too.

Rodgers looses because he will never match up to the Favre legend. Every pass incompletion will be compared to Favre. Every loss will be blamed on him. He would have to win two Super Bowls before he could come out of Favre's shadow. He will be judged harshly for everything he does. All for being the guy who follows Favre.

Favre looses his credibility with the fans as people are tired of the "I'm playing...I'm retiring...I'm playing" BS every year. And Favre looses because he won't end his career in a Green Bay uniform (as he should). He gets to run on the field again and hear some more cheers, but he has lost the respect of many fans.

Green Bay looses because they're now the folks who ran Favre out of town. They paid this guy millions and millions of dollars, made him who he is, but now they're the bad guys. Amazing! Green Bay will have a down season and get blamed for it. And Favre will find a way to put them down when he becomes a TV analyst in a year or two (in a subtle way of course).

So who wins? The new team owner that gets Favre. Why? Because he'll sell tickets for them. They'll win a few games and get a feel good story for a season or two. But they won't win any NFC or AFC Championship and not the Super Bowl. But hey, they'll sell extra tickets and that will pad the owners pocket books ($$$).

So what could have ended up a feel good story with Favre becoming a big shot in the Packers organization and riding on his career has turned off many, many fans. Just like Montana and the other greats who couldn't stop playing and played for loosing teams their last season. Favre should have rode into the $20 million dollar sunset with his image intact!

Favre is a spoiled brat. Let him hold a clipboard or go home and sulk.

Posted Thursday July 03, 2008, About: Davis' decision helps Spurs
Maggette should join the Spurs and get a ring. And it would be a great fit for the Spurs. He would be another scoring threat, be able to draw the opposing team away from Duncan, and immediately make the Spurs a younger team.

As for Finley, he has most likely played his last game for the Spurs. That is unless they don't pick up anyone for that position. If Finley does stay, he will play less minutes than he has.

Brent Barry is a free agent and most likely will not be a Spur next season. He will probably be with the Rockets, although he will be pursued by a few teams for his three point shooting ability.

I'm sure that the Spurs will make every effort to Maggette. I sure hope so.
Go Spurs Go!
Posted Wednesday July 02, 2008, About: Super Bowl or bust for Wade?
All big name teams not only have their fans, but have their haters also. In this case it's the two teams from Texas that other states are jealous of: the Cowboys and the Spurs. Expect the Cowboys to go on a run and play very deep into the playoffs if not win it all.

Go Cowboys!
Posted Tuesday July 01, 2008, About: Why McMurry wrecked Junior
Yep, slamming into a car from behind and taking them out is no big deal. And it doesn't require any skills for the hitting car either.
Posted Monday June 30, 2008, About: Ex-Lions coach Mariucci rips Millen
Mariucci inherited a good team Seifert put together, then destroyed it. Mariucci to Davis and the Raiders is about how the story should end. But we'll see Mariucci in the TV booth soon, the other announcers will be calling him "Coach" like he's a genius, then they'll lobby for a coaching job for him when the first coach gets fired.

As for Millen, the common man wouldn't be able to screw up and keep his job the way Millen has. Lions are and will be at the bottom of the barrel.
Posted Monday June 30, 2008, About: Lakers make Vujacic priority
I've heard about a summer camp to sharpen NBA player's skills. The Lakers could send him to the Ray Allen Camp.
