Yup. Celebrate Hawes. You have pulled within 5 of half the Bulls roster.

Unacceptable to put Noah back in this game. That was embarrassing and terrifying.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ May 4, 2012 -> 04:46 PM) I still think it was the biggest sports blunder not to pay Jordan or Phil. Pay them the moon if you have to (so long as you were still making money...which JR was) and you're guaranteed how many more titles? 3? 4? Sigh. Wait. What? The Bulls were seriously on their last legs after 97-98. They were NOT going to win 3 or 4 more titles.

Chicago sports continue to f*** me in the ass.

QUOTE (SnB @ May 4, 2012 -> 04:36 PM) Just put him on the DL - this accomplishes nothing. Yeah, exactly. This is really dumb. "His elbow's f***ed up, so he's going to pitch as closer". That's South Side baseball for you.

Mark Gonzales ‏ @MDGonzales Coop said Sox didn't want to take risk on Sale's future. 2m Mark Gonzales ‏ @MDGonzales Sale available to close Monday 7m Mark Gonzales ‏ @MDGonzales Axelrod to take spot in rotation Sunday, sox emphasize Sale not hurt 7m Mark Gonzales ‏ @MDGonzales Sale to close, tender elbow

QUOTE (fathom @ May 4, 2012 -> 04:34 PM) This cannot be true. Please tell me it's not true. Sale is 3-1, with 28 ks in 32 IP, and they do this. WTF.

*just stated on Boers & Bernstein, by the way.

Axelrod takes his spot. WHAT THE F*CK.

I'll back-track. Obviously the hiring of Phil was great and Jerry clearly did some things right. I'm not wanting to, nor never meant to piss all over the legacy of Jerry Krause. He was extremely over confident and full of himself, but clearly, he did his job pretty well for an extended period, but he did not adjust well to a league that over adjusted around him.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 4, 2012 -> 03:38 PM) OTOH, was it Krause who hired the coach that finally put together an offense that could exploit Jordan? Offenses don't exploit Jordan. Jordan exploits defenses.

QUOTE (kjshoe04 @ May 4, 2012 -> 02:56 PM) The more I see of her the less attractive she gets. Right.

To add. Check out Jackson Galaxy and his show "Cat from Hell" on Animal Planet. Yup, dude's "name" is Jackson Galaxy. Anyway, and we've always had one so it didn't matter for us since our cats are really well behaved yet mischevious, always have a high spot for the cat. Get a "cat tower". Whenever the cats have had their fill, they go over, beat the s*** out of that thing, then go up top. Cats really like having a "perch". Honestly 90% of problems with house-only cats are directly related to their having no "escape". Once you understand the feline, it can be quite rewarding. I love my two cats so hard.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ May 4, 2012 -> 03:28 PM) 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 Yeah, but that's what makes things so odd... obsessed with foreign nobodies... but ignores Gasol. Krause thought he was king s***. Let's be honest, Kukoc was a decent player, but nothing special. It was all Jordan, Jordan, Jordan, splash some Pippen. Plucking a Dennis Rodman here or there, or a Kerr, those were smart moves, but they were just basketball moves you do to surround the GOAT.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 4, 2012 -> 02:22 PM) LOL. Kind of doubt Ramos is available from the Nationals, too. Just kidnap him.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ May 4, 2012 -> 02:53 PM) I love the foot note on the Knicks trade 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.

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ May 3, 2012 -> 09:19 PM) Tomorrow is my first casual Friday ever. I'm slightly intimidated. I prefer to wear dress clothes. What do I do? Jeans and a polo. Nothing else, ever. And yes, I know this helps you not now.

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ May 4, 2012 -> 11:40 AM) Then I apologize. ACCEPT

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ May 4, 2012 -> 10:32 AM) ARE YOU SERIOUS STEVE? J4L in the post above said that the Knicks are the best team in the East after the Heat. I called him out on it, because it derives from a previous argument where I said that people were overlooking the Pacers. What is your deal? Dude. That was a joke.

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ May 3, 2012 -> 09:34 PM) The Pacers are better than the Knicks. Another classic Badger statement.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ May 3, 2012 -> 08:46 PM) Well, I thought NY/Miami would be competitive. The Heat have officially flipped the switch. The Heat played like s*** tonight. New York just plain sucks.

Vinsanity!
