So we just got done watching LeBron’s appearance on Saturday Night Live, and it wasn’t funny.
We could’ve gone on all day about the reasons, but we felt the best way to say it was bluntly, as we did in the previous sentence.
One can hardly blame LeBron, however. He did what was asked of him, […]

We’re about to dive side-first into the NBA preseason. As it usually doesn’t, it’s snuck up on us this year.
And lest you think we’re the only NBA blogger of note to feel a sense of discontent with this whole deal, Shoals over at FreeDarko is having his moment of discontent, as well. Nobody wants […]

Welcome to the ALL-NEW ESPN, which allows you to embed their stuff on your site, which will allow bloggers to truly, finally synergize the whole “complaining about ESPN, while linking to ESPN’s writers and using ESPN to get all their news” experience.

How do we like this? We love it, and to explain our reasons why […]

So like Shawn Marion requested the trade thing, and now the Suns are kinda looking at the situation and saying, “nah”.
With only about 3 teams that are possibly in the mix to add the Suns disgruntled power forward, there aren’t a lot of options.
This is especially true because one of those teams is the […]

(Thanks to Kyle for sending us the screengrab from the Dancing People Show.)
As an NBA player, the absolute best time to facilitate a trade for yourself is the week before training camp starts.
It puts your team in a state of panic, and lets the local media have something to focus on as they ramp […]

Despite the fact the Great YAY Blog Suicide of 2007 has been an astounding success, we still get our fair share of email from the readership, which is nice.
(Numbers don’t lie - we just checked our stats for the first time in about 8 months, and readership is roughly…no joke…like 1/20 what it used to […]

For us, today’s NBA focus is not on the pending preseason, but inside of various American courtrooms, where the Knicks and Sonics are tackling issues related to sexual harassment and rootin-tootin, relocating ownership groups.
We’ve covered Isiah and the Knicks situation not nearly enough, but a quick read of ESPN’s Chris Sheridan will get you up […]

As September has worn on and moved forwardish, we’ve kept one eye on (believe it or not) Major League Baseball.
Why, you ask? Well, because the Detroit Tigers are not winning the Central Division.
Our own Cleveland Indians, rightful owners of said grouping of teams, have reclaimed their title as Central Division Champs.
Now, don’t jump […]

(Jack Cobra, yo.)
I know the dude isn’t in the NBA any longer, but he tried to make a comeback last season….so maybe this is relevant. Scottie Pippen is making a comeback, and is going to play in some games:
Former Chicago Bulls player Scottie Pippen is close to signing a two match deal with Finland’s Torpan […]

(Jack Cobra back at it with the Jack attack…or something like that)
You know that NBA Training Camps are right around the corner when the players start asking for more trades and threatening to sit out training camp. Usually this is a fruitless venture for most players. They are under contract with their current team, so […]
