I actually liked the troll. I think this site needs more of his kind. Spark some interesting debate. Then after a month, the ones who sparked no interesting debates, will be gone!

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Feb 8, 2011 -> 03:52 PM) I have a feeling Melo would be willing to go to LA, NY or Chicago. Its about money/media presence, etc. The Nuggets see the writing on the wall and realize he is gone and they may get nothing for him. If I was the Bulls Id be calling the Nuggets every hour to see what other players they would want from a third team. The best chance the Bulls have is that they find another team who wants to horde draft picks and then move that player to the Nuggets with Deng/Taj or whatever makes it work. I think the deadline is the 24th, so that means there will be panic by next week. It's all about Lala with regards to Melo. She wants to be in a major market and will not settle for less. Melo saying it's only about basketball is a lie. If it was, he would sign an extension in Denver as they offer one of the best chances for him to win and Denver is a nice enough city to get others to play with him.

QUOTE (thxfrthmmrs @ Feb 6, 2011 -> 05:50 PM) guys like odom, turkoglu, and pierce are really point forwards who can bring the ball up court and set up the offense. if you leave guys like ray allen and jason richardson open, you are really asking for trouble. in atlanta, bibby is the pg, but joe johnson, jamal crawford can handle the ball and setup offense. in OKC, durant westbrook and harden can all get their own shots off. we are the only contending team i can think of who does not have another player who can handle and create their own shot. i think the point is, and has been for a while, that we need someone who can setup offense, handle the ball and knock down open threes if teams decide to double on rose. It really kills us in the playoffs that if opposing teams send constant double teams at rose and our offense will become extremely stagnant and out of flow. This. In fact, GSW did a good job of exposing this last night. If Rose had the ball past half court, they pressured the crap out of him to get the ball in someone else's hands. No one on this team other than Watson can handle the rock. That's why I've been clamoring for Mayo. Mayo has very good handles for a SG, looks to create his own shot and would be able to initiate the offense. More importantly, he would make teams pay for doubling on Rose.

Honestly, I agree with Sprint being the best bang for the buck, by far. I have a family plan with 4 people, unlimited data and text and 1500 minutes and my bill is $156 a month now. BTW, the minutes you use are only to landline phones. Any other mobile phones(even if not on Sprint) do not count against your minutes.

atdhe is still up on the NET, just need to change it to ME

Can't really disagree with the East bench. Last ones probably came down to Bosh or Boozer. Honestly, Noah would've made it had he not gotten injured. Boozer probably the same. Horford definitely deserved it. Johnson is the bigger name, so they'll always go with that. I can't argue with the C's getting their players in.

Thanks for the white gift outside....aholes! I kid, I kid.

I don't mind being banned. All the games I wish I could go online with, I can't such as MLB The Show or NBA2k because their servers suck.

Happy Belated!

QUOTE (flippedoutpunk @ Jan 25, 2011 -> 07:19 PM) backup your game as in, put the entire game on your ps3 hard drive and play? or burn the game to a disc and play the burnt copy on the ps3? Edit: Nevermind, got my answer... *downloads firmware and backup manager then runs to blockbuster* Lol yes. And RedBox and Blockbuster stands are like $2. Best part is the SNES and Genesis Emulators.

Yeah, those speeds will allow you to stream. 1.5mbps is too slow. The DVR worked because the receiver just sends a request to the satellite. Then the satellite sends everything you need to your dish on your home and downloads that way.

QUOTE (He_Gawn @ Jan 26, 2011 -> 03:40 PM) Don't see that happening since its where he played at, but they don't pay him dirt for the job he has done. If anything, he's going to be exactly like Gene Keady, great seasons, but never do anything in the postseason, and if that happens, I can see them running him out of town. There is just not a great allure to spending spending a year or two at Purdue if you're a player, let alone 4 if you need time to develop. There is a reason a lot of the campus migrates down to Bloomington or Muncie for the weekends. Yeah, it's because there is absolutely nothing to do at Purdue except for going to Super Wal-Mart. West Lafayette and Lafeyette are the two boringest towns I have ever been in. That includes places there I haven't even stopped in, just drove by.

Anyone else try Custom Firmware on their own PS3? Tried it for the simple fact that I can now backup my games.

QUOTE (jasonxctf @ Jan 25, 2011 -> 01:48 PM) ehh, im going the last week in March. If I remember correctly, that's about 1-2 weeks post crazy college kids. Depending on the school. I know for my brother and a couple of friends, that's when their Spring Break vacation is. It's not the greatest month for family friendly, especially with the electronic festival going on too, but that's earlier in the month. I'd say stick moreso to Fort Lauderdale. Just going to their restaraunts on the beach is relaxing, it's alot more calm than Miami, and you're literally right up against the Ocean. For Miami, at least in South Beach, the restaraunts and such as removed from the OceanFront. The beach is spectacular though. I wouldn't take my 6 year old there with all the noodiez there. Ah, how I wish I could go back now. They do have a Children's museum if I remember correctly.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jan 24, 2011 -> 07:53 PM) Well yeah, though I don't think Wade and especially Amare have 40 inch verticals. But there's a heck of a whole lot more to athleticism then your vertical. I'd say Wade's 36. LeBron has 44 inches. Dwight has 39.5 inch vertical. Amare is the lowman around 33-34 inches.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jan 24, 2011 -> 07:44 PM) True. I'd rank the '96 East all-stars of Hill/Penny [many have totally forgotten how good those two were before all the injuries], Jordan, Pippen and Orlando Shaq as the best starting 5 I've seen for an all-star game in regards to talent/athleticism. With Rose, Wade and LeBron, they all can go a combine 120 inches in the air. That's just three players. Throw in Dwight Howard and we'll say Amare, and that's between 180-200 inches in the air. Insane!

QUOTE (DrunkBomber @ Jan 24, 2011 -> 06:47 PM) Did you read this? I'm sure he did and it still supports the fact that Rivers defended him. Everyone's body is different. And the biggest point in that quote is that, if you're not helping your team, you're useless. Cutler was not helping the Bears playing before the injury, and I'm sure little would have changed afterwards.

What did Maurice Jones Drew say? I mean, response today. I know what he said yesterday.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Jan 24, 2011 -> 06:22 PM) Ya, the central is bad but at least it has 1 really good team in the Bulls. The NFC West is just plain garbage. Eh, the West has less teams, thus having less overall bad teams. Then again, that's an argument for the NFC West.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jan 24, 2011 -> 06:11 PM) It is not. He and Rivers have a huge rivalry from their days in the AFC West together. And there was an awful lot of s***-talking going on. That's true. I remember it and there's even youtube video showing them in a game arguing with each other on the field.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jan 24, 2011 -> 07:51 AM) The Bulls also have the worst division in the NBA. You mean sports. It's simply really really weak. With that said, I think the Bulls are a legit 3 seed and #2 once Boston breaks up. They desperately need a SG who can also be a secondary ballhandler for when teams deny Derrick the ball. I really believe OJ is that guy.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jan 24, 2011 -> 06:00 PM) Fine, storied. I'm just going off of just about everyone's reaction to him. I don't think nearly everyone dislikes him simply because he isn't the warmest guy. We are so limited in terms of what knowledge we have of what goes on behind the scenes, but most of the time, if you've got a reputation of being a monster douchebag, it's usually for a reason. Then why do people still love Urlacher? Almost every Bears fan I know loves the guy, but everyone I know who has met him despise him because he comes off as an unwelcoming dbag and thinks he's better than us normal humans. Yet, people love him. To me, it never made sense to hate someone or love someone because everyone else does. Form your own opinion based on what you know. If you hate a team, hate them for your own reasons. If you like a team, do it for your own reasons. The same go for players or anything else in life. Too many Indians, and not enough Chiefs.

QUOTE (Swingandalongonetoleft @ Jan 24, 2011 -> 05:45 PM) I don't mind the Packers at all. I can't see them walking away from this one, unfortunately. I can. Honestly, it should be a close matchup and I wouldn't bet the house on either of them. If you asked me to pick, I would pick the Packers since they have a better offense as well as a great defense. I don't expect either team to score that much, but I see the Packers winning 21-13. Honestly, the Jets were the best overall team, but their QB position was so weak.
