And I don't want to say Mike James would be winning games for the Bulls, but at this point you have to look at all of your options instead of sinking with what you keep throwing out there. It simply isn't working. CJ decided to become ChokeJ, so you have to move on.

Since CJ Watson disappeared and JL3 wants to dribble out the shot clock and play 1 on 1, free Mike James. That is all

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ May 4, 2012 -> 06:47 PM) Well allegedly Resindorf offered Jackson a contract that would have made him the top paid coach, but Jackson rejected it. With regard to Pippen on the Rockets, he was traded there, but from what I recall he made it clear he did not want to back with the Bulls. He rejected it after Krause and Reinsdorf dicked him around back and forth. Same thing with Pippen, everyone complained that Krause/Reinsdorf never wanted to pay anyone what they were worth and negotiated in bad faith. And that is why free agents iced out the Bulls for damn near 10 years.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ May 4, 2012 -> 06:21 PM) Wait. What? The Bulls were seriously on their last legs after 97-98. They were NOT going to win 3 or 4 more titles. That team, sure. It could have been rebuilt around MJ and Pip.

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ May 4, 2012 -> 05:15 PM) Jenks, I dont think anyone is quite sure what happened. In my opinion I always felt that Pippen wanted to get out of Jordan's shadow and show the world how great he was, Jackson wanted more power and wanted to show up Krause. Reinsdorf was put in the position of either defending his friend Krause, or giving into Jackson. If you read between the lines there basically was an ultimatum, get rid of Krause or we wont come back. Honestly Badger I do not remember any of it being about Pippen. From what I remember, everyone hated Krause, and Krause/Reinsdorf did not want to pay Phil like a Superstar coach. MJ said he wasn't sticking around without Phil, Phil said he was done negotiating with Jerry squared, and Krause thought everyone was too old and that he could rebuild because he was that smart and completely discounted the fact that the players in the NBA saw it as a s***ty move. Besides, if Pippen wanted to be out of MJs shadow, then why did he join the Rockets to play with Barkley, Clyde and Hakeem? Why would he immediately go play second fiddle somewhere else?

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ May 4, 2012 -> 03:24 PM) There's a lot of good nuggets in there. The best/most annoying one? Honestly, it's crazy how much NBA scouting has changed in just the last 10 years. I blame Krause as much as the guy in charge. Kruase was always trying to be smarter than everyone else because he lucked out with Kukoc. He kept drafting a bunch of foreign nobodies that never did s*** like Dragan Tarlac

QUOTE (iamshack @ May 4, 2012 -> 09:28 AM) Hah...Daniel Hudson? Universally panned move, no? I would hope that KW would learn from that mistake rather than repeat it

QUOTE (iamshack @ May 4, 2012 -> 09:21 AM) It's May 3rd...the weather has sucked, the team has struggled at home, the Hawks were in the playoffs, now the Bulls are in the playoffs...let's see if they can get on a roll here and see if things improve... As for Viciedo, besides the fact that he is a favorite of KWs, I don't know how you could rule him out as a trade piece if we were to be in contention... Of course with KW anyone is a trade piece, but unloading a potentially great bat that is under control for up to 5 more years doesn't seem like a very smart move.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 3, 2012 -> 07:11 PM) Spiderman trailer out on ITunes. Seriously, it's not even built yet, and you are already ripping the spire off of One World Trades? Didnt know a fake Oscorp building was One World Trades

QUOTE (Elgin Slim @ May 3, 2012 -> 09:20 PM) man, I never realized it was an acronym, and I've been around here for a while. I always thought it was a running joke when Buehrle got lit up that they were saying that he was pitching like a minor leaguer. Yea, it was an argument between a lot of posters about him being the Sox ace. Some people felt he was, those that didn't created that acronym for when he got tattooed by some of those high OBP teams that looked at a lot of pitches.

QUOTE (Elgin Slim @ May 3, 2012 -> 09:10 PM) It means that John Danks belongs in AA right now. It was a running joke each time Buehrle got lit up like a Christmas tree. Lol no it doesn't. Ginger kid spelled it out.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ May 3, 2012 -> 09:08 PM) WHAT THE f*** DOES THAT MEAN?????? Its da trufe

Worthless. Goddamnit

LolDanks

JDINAA "John Danks is the best 0-8 pitcher I have ever seen"

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ May 2, 2012 -> 03:29 PM) My buddy Kyle just spur-of-the-moment bought a black lab/boxer mix puppy. He is only like 6 weeks old right now. Very tiny little guy. My roommate is dating him, so Kyle often brings little Duke over to hang out. He loves to bite and sleep, that's about it. When he is tired he will cuddle, but he seems kind of like a loner dog. He often hides when he is tired, or lays in tight spaces. He will climb up on the couch and try and wedge himself between the back of the couch and the cushion. It's kind of weird. We looked up pictures of lab/boxer mixes, and this guy looks like he will be very intimidating when he is fully grown. Real badass and scary looking. This is what he looks like now though..... I wouldnt worry about that. If he is 6 weeks, he is probably just having some seperation anxiety, he is used to be jammed in with a litter of puppies.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ May 3, 2012 -> 03:16 PM) If by "mile away" you mean a popup like 200 feet away, then yeah, a mile. He hit it a mile high. Sorry Joe, sometimes mistypes happen. Like when nicknames like "hotfire" come off keyboards

google, duderino, if you are into that whole brevity thing

this is a hilarious threadjack, i must admit thread title updated for bewbs

i think FOP should do act out an exact imitation of his avatar GIF and put it up for all to see, that would make it a happy birthday for all

QUOTE (shakes @ May 3, 2012 -> 11:04 AM) Anyone else think he looks like Deangelo Barksdale? Thats exactly who i was thinking ofwhat??

Adam Schefter is saying that Suggs thinks he will be back by October, per a "source" i will be extremely surpised if that is the case

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 3, 2012 -> 09:08 AM) Can I claim the "It's morning" excuse? Anyway, point to you, 30 demerits to me. LOL, sure you can. Anyways, Achilles is a brutal injury and recovery. Many times it snaps and balls up inside the calf and has to be extracted. I can only imagine how painful it must be for him. We may never see the same Suggs again. Offseason basketball, I wonder how the contract works with that....

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 3, 2012 -> 09:05 AM) Well, a "6-9 month recovery time" for an ACL tear was given as the number for another recent ACL tear, and that puts it right in the middle of the NFL season if it's at the short end...then depends on if you want to keep the guy having a roster spot for 8-12 games when he can't play. this isnt ACL balta. THis is achilles
