Man, there are some insane arguments in this thread. There is more to athleticism then just jumping but Jordan has the highest vertical officially recorded for a NBA player at 48 inches, 4 f***in feet people, id say he'd be athletically superior to todays NBA as well. Oh and Drexler's vetical..44 in, Wade's...36. Point J4L.

Hahaha fantastic j4l, love it. And ill take you up on that at some point, just gotta deal with s*** this weekend.

Well it's appreciated guys. I'm obviously not happy and sad about my cats especially because of how they died. but I can deal with it decently enough. Just worried about my mom, those cats were her life and she obviously just lost her house and she's not handling it too well.

Ill probably just stay here tonight cause my mom is a wreck and I don't want to leave her by herself then ill go stay with friends after tonight most likely.

QUOTE (G&T @ Feb 16, 2012 -> 09:26 PM) Balls. I'd say sorry but I doubt that really covers it. Holy s***. What happened if you don't mind my asking? No one really knows what makes it so much better. From what I can gather, somehow someway one of our neighbors cars just exploded(ya I don't know) and caught our place on fire(we live in a townhouse). Sweet phone call to get at work. Pictures and crap are on nbcchicaco.com under local news.

So anybody hear about the fire in Wadsworth today? Ya that was my house, cats dead, stuff gone, house gone. Life blows

QUOTE (Brian @ Feb 16, 2012 -> 07:12 AM) I think Lin is a nice story but now even I am getting tired of it. He is very likable in his post game stuff but the national media is ruining him for me. And the hate won't go anywhere for ahile because if he continues to play well this year, people will say "Wait until next year. Sophomore slump probably. Blah Blah Blah." Guess it would be better for all if he just fizzled away instead of continuing to play well and getting NY to a 2nd round. The worst is the constant comparisons to Tebow. I haven't got swept up in the "Linsanity" but I do like the kid but I'm tired of the overdone coverage at this point as well.

QUOTE (danman31 @ Feb 16, 2012 -> 12:22 AM) SDSU gets smacked at home to UNM and the numbers (and Vegas) laugh in Justin's face. QUOTE (Brian @ Feb 16, 2012 -> 04:38 AM) So THAT'S why Justin isn't working in Vegas. Hope we hear from him soon. I fear his bookie may have gotten to him. Haha, EVERYTIME I call something a lock the opposite ends up happening, funny stuff.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Feb 15, 2012 -> 08:42 PM) I realize its a tough league but it's tough seeing any team with a 5-8 conference record after tonight having a great shot, but maybe I'm missing something. I hate to throw your Clones under the bus again but compare ISU's resume to Northwestern's...

Northwestern isn't dead yet either, though to be honest the death of Illinois hurts the cats chances. NW has really strong power numbers, if they can go 3-2 with one of those wins being OSU they're going to get in even with a below .500 record, not likely I know but possible. And if they go 4-1 they're in as well. It's going to be a struggle for them but they're no where near dead.

f***in cats. So damn close again.

I got home with like 13 mins left in the half and haven't seen Hearn. Foul trouble?

So apparently SDSU is an underdog tonight at home vs. New Mexico. For any betters out there SDSU is an absolute lock.

QUOTE (Swingandalongonetoleft @ Feb 15, 2012 -> 05:31 PM) Its the dunk contest that everyone should worry about. If I'm Blake Griffin, I start getting friendly with Tanya Harding. Blake isn't doing the dunk contest anyways.

This is fantastic... http://photos.al.com/birmingham-news/2012/...alabama_19.html

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Feb 15, 2012 -> 08:52 AM) Anyone still watching Alcatraz or The River? I thought both this week were pretty meh, though I'll give props to The River for creating some genuinely tense moments. I'm watching the River. I really like the overall idea the show is just a bit too slow for me at times. Ill stick with it for a while though.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Feb 15, 2012 -> 07:52 AM) Coach D'Antoni @Coach_D_Antoni Floyd Mayweather thinks Jeremy Lin is overrated, which is funny because Jeremy Lin has managed to be undefeated without ducking anybody. Not the real D'Antoni but funny none the less.

Lin is at the Bradley Center March 9th. I'm passing on going because of conference tournaments in college hoops but I figured some of you might wanna see Lin on the cheap so there ya go.

QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Feb 15, 2012 -> 09:23 AM) That's a very weird box score. SIU didnt turn the ball over, took 50% more shots (with a 50% FG%), shot well from 3, only had 6 turnovers and lost by 20 It's SIU and Creighton in a nutshell, it shows just how embarrssing our program has become but it also highlights CU's weakness which happens to be perimeter defense. As much as I've raved about Creighton all year(they are a very good team) their defense certainly needs to improve if they want to be a 2nd weekend team. They're quite possibly one of the top 5 offensive teams in the country but if they don't sure up their d(which seems unlikely at this pt) they could have a very disappointing early rd exit.

QUOTE (danman31 @ Feb 14, 2012 -> 11:46 PM) Wow, heck of a box score. I'm tempted to watch that to see how that's possible. 12-14 from 3?! Indiana State shot 12 of 12 from 3 against us on Saturday so our opponenets have gone 24 of 26 on 3 pointers against us in the last two games, I'm pretty sure that's impossible to do. And for a program that just 4 years ago was thought of as one of the best defensive schools in the country, it's quite impressive.

Lin himself said he liked the Super Lintendo nickname best so blame him

QUOTE (chw42 @ Feb 14, 2012 -> 09:42 PM) I hope that sushi thing wasn't taken seriously. I was just making fun of Floyd Mayweather. BANNED for racism

Well Kyyle you can add to those stats...Creighton shot a MVC single game record 78 percent from the field tonight against the Dawgs. Hahahahahahhahaha what a f***in embarrassment.

Ya solid signing, nothing to complain about.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Feb 14, 2012 -> 09:09 AM) I have this feeling HBK isnt done. Not that its a surprise to me I think he is though I wish he wasn't, that was good stuff last night.
