The Celtics are loving these year long breaks between series.

QUOTE (DirtySox @ May 18, 2010 -> 09:56 PM) I won't. One has Boras as an agent and injury issues, while the other has signability questions and is extremely risky. (And the organization keeps noting a desire for pitching this year) And where has playing it safe gotten our farm system in recent years?

While being amped over 3DDGH and RDR and ModNation Racers, I completely forgot about The Forgotten Sands. Apparently, its got some flaws, but is a nice return to the Sands of Time, which was one of my favorite games ever. I'll probably wait to buy it at a discount price though.

I support 3 man booths by adding Wimpy and Frank...because I still like all the normal announcers.

If Wilson or Ranaudo are there and we don't pick one, I will officially be confused.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan101 @ May 18, 2010 -> 12:44 AM) Wouldn't surprise me at all if this happens. I think he's going wherever Calipari does though, because the package deal thing sounds exactly like something LeBron and World Wide Wes would do. Where that place is? Who knows, because it'll take some balls to do that and basically give LeBron the keys to your organizations decision making. If Calipari had a choice of where to go in the NBA, it'd be the Bulls because of Rose (and pairing LeBron with him) Edit: If it comes down to having Calipari included, that rules out the Heat (Riley wouldn't mix with Cal) and Knicks, and leaves just the Bulls, Clippers, and Nets. These are the 3 teams I think it comes down too as well. All 3 are in the 3 biggest markets. All have some extra thing; LA has the LA lifestyle, Chicago has MJ's legacy, and the Nets have Jay-Z/Russian Mark Cuban. All 3 have a serious detractor; LA is run by Lakers, MJ's shadow, and being stuck in Newark for 2 years. All 3 have a super piece (Rose, Lopez, Griffin), a good supporter (Noah, Davis, Harris), another good piece (Deng, Kaman, Top 4 Pick), as well as some extras (Gordon, Hinrich, Gibson, Lee). What I think tips it in the Bulls favor are Rose being the best of all those pieces and the ability to do a sign and trade for Bosh without removing Noah and keeping at least one of Taj/Hinrich/Deng.

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ May 17, 2010 -> 11:07 PM) Oh man this is hilarious. Producer/Reporter Justin Weiner of WGN Radio 720 reports that Lebron James was seen house searching in Highland Park. I almost feel sorry for Cavs fans at this point.

QUOTE (Kalapse @ May 17, 2010 -> 01:50 PM) RDR is picking up glowing reviews left and right: http://www.metacritic.com/games/platforms/...ddeadredemption http://www.metacritic.com/games/platforms/...ddeadredemption I have $5 left on mine when I pick it up tomorrow, then saving up for ModNation racers. Along with 3D Dot Hero Games, it seems good games always come in 3s.

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ May 17, 2010 -> 06:49 PM) David Schuster just reported on The Score that he has a "trusted source" who says the Phil Jackson to Chicago rumor is more than just a rumor. There may have been some "back channel" communications going on. There is some smoke there. If the Bulls sign Phil Jackson somehow, I will never doubt them again (at least for 10 years). That takes skill to draw him from the beach, Kobe, an owner who loves him, dating the owners Playboy posing daughter, etc. as Sam Smith likes to say. QUOTE (Jordan4life @ May 17, 2010 -> 06:56 PM) Am I the only one that forgot about the western conference finals? The playoff scheduling is pathetic. I thought you only got bye weeks in the NFL? I don't even remember what Nash and Kobe look like. I won't complain this year, because it helped the Celts beat the Cavs with rest. QUOTE (Brian @ May 17, 2010 -> 08:04 PM) Said Mo Williams was "puffing his chest out" ever since he went to Cleveland and hasn't produced in playoffs for 2 straight years. Said Rose ate him for breakfast and Rondo ate him for lunch and dinner. Always thought Mo was overrated and would rather dance and take fake pictures than win titles. Mike Brown voice: Mo Williams is better than Derrick Rose and underrated by the entire league.

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ May 16, 2010 -> 10:57 PM) Calipari has stated on Twitter that he is staying in Kentucky next season, but I wouldn't really hold him to that just yet. The more important thing is this: http://www.dailyherald.com/story/?id=381195 Apparently Lebron called Derrick Rose after losing to Boston in the 2nd round and had a long convo with him about the potential of playing together. Scoop Jackson confirmed this as well. This. Is. Awesome.

QUOTE (jasonxctf @ May 16, 2010 -> 09:58 PM) and juan pierre (7 mil) is only earning 14 times more than andruw jones. (500k) Well, the Sox are only paying him $4M this year, so, 8 times.

Rest in peace, Ronnie James Dio. One of the greatest voices in rock has gone.

Van Gundy is spewing crap. Bulls get LeBron, they are the #1 in the East, and maybe the Magic contest them, depending on what they do this offseason.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ May 16, 2010 -> 11:23 AM) Keep in mind the naysayers were saying the same types ofthings about Jordan until the Bulls finally won. He was a great talent, didn't make the others better, a ballhog, etc. James is only a year older than Taj Gibson. If the Bulls get LeBron and they stay healthy, they will be in the finals every year for the foreseeable future. I was LMAO at the NY Post this morning. In one article they were saying LeBron doesn't need a good point guard that Chandler and Gallinari would be more attractive to LBJ. Then in another article were talking about the Knicks acquiring Tony Parker and giving him a huge extension. He can't hang with Rose on a basketball court. The NY Post thing makes me crack up. "We have Danilo Gallinari and Wilson Chandler. Paired with someone like Chris Bosh or Dwyane Wade, that is more attractive than the Bulls with their possibility of Rose/Hinrich/Deng/Gibson/Noah and possibly trading Deng and others for Bosh."

I went with Gamestop, though I care far less about this content than the Show's stadiums.

Listening to the radio and watching TV has me baffled that people think LeBron in Chicago doesn't make them a contender, but instead a 4th seed in the East. On the radio not long ago, I heard someone actually say: "Well, they still wouldn't be able to beat the Celtics in 7 games, if Atlanta keeps Joe Johnson they're better, and then theres the Magic." What?

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 15, 2010 -> 10:06 PM) Limewire doesn't have anything like that in money. All that means is Limewire will be bankrupted and shut down. The Vatican couldn't even pay that price tag though.

QUOTE (maki @ May 15, 2010 -> 10:11 PM) and my mom got scared... she's says you're moving with your auntie and your uncle in BelAir! Come on man, at least get it right!

Floyd should follow Peavy's example tomorrow.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 15, 2010 -> 09:48 PM) There's no way that having the words "Thornton" and "Elbow" in the same posts repeatedly are a good thing. "Thornton's elbow is healthy and OK" would be nice about now.

Can Sergio become a switch pitcher?

Who's awesome? Matt Thornton.

****.

I know we were spoiled by Ventura-Crede defense, but my god you suck at D Teahen.
