This is why the Timberwolves and Kevin McHale suck...
2007-10-29 23:08:00
... and why the San Antonio Spurs are sooo baller...SAN ANTONIO (Ticker) - The San Antonio Spurs traded point guard Beno Udrih to the Minnesota Timberwolves in exchange for a second-round draft pick in 2008.Later in that day, Udrih was waived by the Timberwolves.There must have been some other trade incentives for the Timberwolves to make such a move, but for a team that is trying to rebuild, why wouldn't you keep a promising young point guard or a top second-round draft pick. The move doesn't make any sense to me, even if cash considerations were involved.Anyways, so long big Beno, it was good while it lasted and at least you have an NBA championship under your belt unlike Dirk Nowitzki and the Mavericks.anschad@gmail.com ...

Tim McCarver and Eric Wynalda are idiots
2007-10-26 21:56:00
"What a short quick stroke for a big man."- Tim McCarver"He's ready to strike like a cobra in a basket" - Tim McCarver"Once a guy drops his bat, baserunning is the biggest determining factor to whether you gonna get runs or not. It's so important. SO Important."- Tim McCarver"Papelbon with the combination of towels wrapped around his money maker."- Joe Buck(hahahahaha)Now to the MLS playoffs... During the D.C. United - Chicago Fire game ESPN2 cameras panned to the Chicago Fire supporter's group Section 8 with about 15 minutes left in the match, fans in the section set off flares that gave off a red, fire-like glare. Wynalda responded to this image by saying, "Looks like California," a flippant reference to the wildfires currently plaguing California. "Because when the runner gets to third base the next stop is home."- Tim McCarver"Give me another word, I keep coming back to dominant."- Joe Buck"I don't have my thesaurus with me."- Tim McCarver"For the first stolen base that we get ...

Bajwa was rushed to a hospital after the attack by a gang of Rhesus macaques, but succumbed to head injuries sustained in his fall, the Press Trust of India news agency and The Times of India reported.Many government buildings, temples and residential neighborhoods in New Delhi are overrun by Rhesus macaques, which scare passers-by and occasionally bite or snatch food from unsuspecting visitors.Last year, the Delhi High Court reprimanded city authorities for failing to stop the animals from terrifying residents and asked them to find a permanent solution to the monkey menace.Part of the problem is that devout Hindus believe monkeys are manifestations of the monkey god Hanuman and feed them bananas and peanuts — encouraging them to frequent public places.Over the years, city authorities have employed monkey catchers who use ...

"They gave up 31 points to Troy and Brad Pitt wasn't the coach of that team."- Lee Corso7. "Good timeout by Penn State...you may catch them in a ball handling situation."- Andre Ware6. "The guys say he is so precious with the young boys."- Holly Rowe (Via Gangsta D)5. "Think about playing quarterback here at USC: Carson Palmer wins a Heisman, Matt Leinart wins a Heisman, John David Booty has played very well, and now Mark Sanchez.
