Celtics at Lakers Game 7


One of the best series I've seen in basketball, fitting its the NBA Finals with Kobe vs the Big 4(featuring Rondo). Only the Celtics and the Bulls series 2 years ago tops this one. Anyway, im picking the Lakers to win this series. 104-97. The Perkins injury will cost the Celtics being as tho his presence will be missed defensively. Kobe gives his usual 30 but adds ring number 5 to his hand as well.

IM JUSS SAYING.....

i hate the Celtics and I hope they do lose (tho i honestly believe the lakers win at home)

NCAA Makeover

Traditionalist will tell you that the titanic shifts that is the NCAA's realignment is bad for the sport and could potentially ruin rivaleries. Thats only half true (riveralies ruined). But the new aged fan gets his way and the traditionalist cant get but too upset after the dust has cleared and settled. The Big 12 remains intact after rumors of its demise and the rise of the PAC 16!! (it sounded evil in my head with an evil lauf to compliment it) Nebraska heads over to the big 10 and Colorado heads west to the Pac 10. The Big 12 (with 10 teams) survives as Texas, Texas A&M, and Oklahoma all decided to remain in the conference. Utah also accepts its invite to the Pac 10 (now has 12 teams). the question now is bowl games. will the Big 12 lose its championship game? will the Pac 10 and Big 10 gain a chipper? will there be any name changes? a lot of questions that will soon have its answers.

IM JUSS SAYIN....

i personally woulda loved a super conference like the Pac 16, or the Big 10 getting Missouri as well. But I'm also happy with the results. Nebraska can create some new and interesting rivalries with Ohio state and Penn state. Utah can finally prove to the nation that it belongs in the ranks of the elite. There is a lot of pluses with the new alignment.

Albert wants OUT, Skins should cut him


So if u haven't heard by now Albert Hanyesworth wants out of Washington primarily because the redskins switch the defense from a 3-4 to a 4-3...or something like that. this, 1 year after he signed a 7 year 100 million dollar deal. ard lets be real here y'all. this guy is CRAZY!!! first off, you juss signed a 100 million dollar deal. is that not enough? the skins gave you that money because they felt that your skills and talents would dominate. let them worry about the defense and you worry about sacking quarterbacks. you get one year into your deal and you already want out? this is the most selfish act Ive seen from a player in a long time. second.. the mark of a good athlete is not the ability to dominate in one system, but have the ability to adjust and dominate in others as well. so what the skins switch their defense to a 4-3! THEY GAVE YOU A 100 MILLION! ADJUST! your talented enough to be dominant in that system rite? guess not. haynesworth is an overrated superstar who's exposing himself as such, not the dominant interior lineman everyone tho he was. hes afraid that his numbers will drop (like last year) and he will be labeled as a flop (which is will be). I say if your really good than just play the damn game.

finally, hes so afraid of being exposed for what he truly is (overrated) that he's willing to abandon the redskins, destroy team chemistry and even sacrifice that huge contract in order to get his way. I understand that your talents wont be maximized in the 4-3. but shouldn't that give you more incentive to go to camp, work hard and be the best in the 4-3? imagine a world if everyone acted like this guy. what if backups start saying "u guys cant maximize me in this defensive system so i want a trade." what if all starters had this mentality? it just destroy team chemistry.

i credit the redskins for publicly bashing haynesworth. there building a solid team and need your best players there practicing, not becoming the cancer that T.O. was for the eagles 6 years ago.

IM JUSS SAYIN.....
i don't want a guy who worries so much about defensive alignments that he's willing to ruin team chemistry to get his way. neither do I want a guy who seems to bask in selfishness. the skins are best to cut this guy and move on.
