The Thread About Nothing...

Matter of fact...The general state of the big three (MLB, NBA, NFL) is in decline if you ask me. Don't know if it's because I'm getting older, but the NBA (diluted league b/c too many teams, superstars call the shots) and the NFL (Goodell is ruining what the NFL had become) are disappointing me so much for what they could be. NBA isn't trying hard enough and NFL is trying too hard.
 
im saying, you guys are less than a week into a 493223452353 game season and your asking why arent stadiums sold out?

Don't see this as a possibility. They have a rough road and will not have home court advantage in any series.
 
I HATE that the "superstars" of the NBA all want to team up with each other. I would much rather see them all on different teams, butting heads. There would be more good teams, and much more competition in the L. If possible i think that eliminating the option of a luxury tax, and lowering the salary cap would be the answer (it will never happen though)
 
^ You do know that this isn't new at all, right? Been going on for decades, in all sports.

A Ranger game costs less than going to the movies and that's after back to back World Series appearances

You also gotta try and be smart and work around the system.  For example, at Yankee Stadium a lot of folks are now just buying the cheapest seats they can find on StubHub and standing around since it's so massive and there's so many areas just to stand and scope the game.  Tickets aren't even that bad in the Grandstand/Bleachers TBH.  Attendance isn't down because of the length of the season.
  
 
The Kings will either relocate.... or get new owners and stay in Sacto......

The Kings will get the #1 pick this year. X+3 will not apply.

Tyreke Evans needs to be traded on draft day.

Definitely the better looking orange and black jerseys of the two in MLB.
 
With all the recent fights in hockey got me thinking what if the NBA allowed fighting. Who would we see and who would win. Who would be the enforcers.

Fights I would've liked to see. Artest vs Ben Wallace. Kobe Bryant vs Ray Allen. Dwight vs Perkins? I'm sure there are other players out there who flat out hate each other that I can't think off top my head. All I know is dudes were not messing with players like Jerry Stackhouse and Charles Oakley.

[h1]What Is Mel Kiper Talking About?[/h1]




If it's NFL draft week, that means one thing: Mel Kiper Jr. is talking a lot.

During the seven-round extravaganza, which began Thursday and continues into the weekend, Kiper—ESPN's interestingly coiffed draft expert—will be on the air seemingly nonstop, chatting about everything from a player's hands to his size to his 40-yard dash time. But based on an analysis of one Kiper transcript, the one thing Kiper loves to talk about more than anything is this: whatever you're talking about.

To be sure, that's not Kiper's only verbal quirk: During this 51-question media session, he used the word "guy" 182 times.In a recent pre-draft conference call, Kiper said some variation of "you're talking about" to describe a player or group of players 24 times. If you're curious how he feels about the draft's top two players, quarterbacks Andrew Luck and Robert Griffin III, the answer is obvious: "You're talking about elite prospects in this draft," he said. Ask him about Missouri tight end Michael Egnew and he'll tell you "you're talking about a guy that caught a lot of balls."

Found this very funny because it's so true. It also makes me immediately think of John Clayton and his go-to phrase of "let's put it this way."
 
-I have more interest in watching the NHL playoffs than the NBA playoffs because they're much more unpredictable.
-NBA games don't feel like actual basketball to me. Too many isolations and games aren't often decided by team ball.
 
Gator stuff
1. I forgot Udonis was so damn big. I remember but I forget about it.

2. I forget that James White started at Florida
 
Reading more "steroid guys" talk about it, PED testing is useless.
I'm starting to thing that before gene doping comes along let everyone use at an elite doctor with roid knowledge approved level.
Cause gene doping is gone be the cluster #*%# that kills sports.
