    Forget your anger toward Bruce Bowen for a second...

    I think you have to remember that, for whatever reason, the Spurs as a team get away with murder. If Bowen were a Sun, I doubt that he would get nearly as many calls/nocalls. Without that advantage, it would be interesting to see how good his defense would be--not as good as Bells, I'd guess...

    Whiz to cut vets like M. Brown, Ross or Clancy .. ??

    If they cut Clancy, I hope they shop him around first--there was a story about the Giants wanting him back, and plenty of teams want depth at DT. Surely they could get a 4th rounder for him--though I think he's worth more, and I have trouble with keeping Watson or Lewis over him.

    jazz vs spurs

    Someone needs to read the 'minds' of Stern and the refs' manager--whichever team they favor will win.

    Favre angry, requests trade

    To CtCardinals: Let me take your points in order: 1. The comment I cited was If you think that's a good comment, no wonder you don't like mine. 2. About Javon Walker and Moss: I certainly agree that Walker was good and Favre would have been better off keeping his mouth shut. As in many...

    Favre angry, requests trade

    This is the worst comment, but quite a few on this thread are not worthy of respect. Favre has proven his toughness over and over. What was it, 3 times MVP? He's never had a top receiving corps--maybe two or three WRs over the years that would rank in the top half of NFL starters. He has...

    The Suns should forfeit Game 5

    Why is this thing 'Spider TX' not already banned, according to the announced policy? Nothing to contribute. Addressing the proposal seriously, I sure agree that we should watch the starters' minutes. If we simply forfeit, Stern might extend the suspension another game. I'd suggest different...

    Cards want versatile offensive line

    I am favorably impressed by the rationale for moving Wells. I also think this group may be able to declare an approach (open competition etc.) strategically while keeping their real plans and expectations to themselves. After all, they were pretty convincing about being OK [read: out of touch...

    Duncan may get suspension!

    Well, what if they internally said, "To be fair:D, we'll suspend Amare, Duncan, Bowen, and Diaw, along with Horry." My guess is we'd win Game 5 going away. That aside, this whole mess is Stern's fault, and the fault of his subordinates, the refs. They've tacitly said kneeing the MVP, kicking...

    Suns @ Spurs - Game Thread - Monday, May 14, 2007 - 6:30pm - TNT

    A suggestion, that I hope the board controllers think about: Don't allow any new registrations from 6 hours before a playoff game to 12 hours after. I doubt that 1 in 10 of those who try are the type of fans that are wanted on the board. Shut them down and save some energy.

    Was he a 'cover' LB, who could impart wisdom about handling passes?

    What makes the Spurs the best franchise in sports, and why the Suns have no titles?

    For what it's worth, I'm a vehement Suns fan, have no particular use for Spurs fans, but do not subscribe to physical threats, fistfights, etc. I admire the talent of Duncan, etc., but think its a shame and a disgrace that they taint legitimate wins with whining and dirty play. I don't want...

    Current LB's

    Didn't we get A grades for that draft? I know there was praise for getting Blackstock, Brown, and Mitchell far later than the predicted spots from draft gurus--I was excited myself by the apparent upgrade (though I was worried about slow Roller--but didn't want Jones, even then). Back to the...

    ok lets talk football

    Repeating (apologies) the idea of another of my posts, I think we ought to try to separate hope and trust. I have high hopes, with some good reason. Over and over, many of us have carped that the Cards' biggest problem was the OL. That's been addressed, finally, in a pretty major way. The...

    Roc and Manucci to announce a comeback of a former Cardinals player!

    I would think that the Ring could include both great past players and current "among-the-best" players without being stretched too far. How could they think of excluding Andreas Williams--for a few years his name was just about synonymous with the Cards. On the other hand, as a late-comer to...

    Great Cards article (Yahoo)....

    My own glass is half-full of Kool-aid. We've had good draft grades, picked up seemingly useful free agents, etc., how many years in a row? I've learned the excruciating way that those aren't trustworthy. It's good to see favorable signs, especially about our biggest problems--that brings...

    Bowen admits kick, denies intent

    Breaking News: "Bruce Bowen admits kneeing Steve Nash, but denies any intention to cripple. "I saw the replay, and it's obvious I did knee him," Bowen told San Antonio reporters. "But to cripple him, that wasn't the intention at all. It was an unfortunate situation, and I'm sorry he feels...

    Suns @ Spurs - Game Thread - Sat. May 12, 2007 - 5:00 pm

    I think this poster and Popsi have a claim, just not an argument. The refs cost us Amare's presence for about 20 minutes, plus gave them 15 or so more minutes with Duncan in there, plus a slew of FTs. That swings the game, pure and simple. Now it's true that if Nash hit a few of those silly...

    How Will the Refs Call This Game?

    Trolls should imitate the style of their team. Right now, you should be looking incredulously, wide-eyed, at the great Judge in the sky and saying "Me!? Called a blind homer troll for for looking at biased calls and claiming they're fair?!?! Couldn't be!" What I want to know is, where did...

    Suns @ Spurs - Game Thread - Sat. May 12, 2007 - 5:00 pm

    With fans like this, who needs trolls? Duncan is a great player, clearly--so is Parker, and maybe Ginobili. Nonetheless, I can't see how you can deny that the refs basically gave the game away. If the refs called Duncan's fouls on him, he would have been out of the game for 10 or 15 more...

    Clancy on 910 am this morning

    Before this gets shut down, I have a question: if ILBs (KD) aren't going to be asked to cover TEs in the 3-4, and OLBs (Okeafor/Berry) also aren't going to be asked to (as summaries of Clancy on p. 1 indicate), just who IS going to cover the TE? Dockett? Watson? If we rely on Wilson because...

    Nash's bloody nose a hoax?

    This just in: "The Suns have reacted with extreme rage to growing charges that Nash's nose gusher was a fake. "We've got his back, as well as his nostrils," says a teammate. SA, on the other hand, has abandoned their routine protests about being called dirty to back-pedal on the nasal charge...

    SA Reaction To Amare's Accusations

    This article is a tempest in a teapot. First, everybody in SA knows their players are dirty--Ginobili and Bowen have been criticized by how many players for how many years? They have no honor left to besmirch. They won't be more motivated, it'll just be business as usual. As other posters...

    San Antonio @ Phoenix - Game Thread - Sun. May 6, 2007 - 12:30 p.m. ABC

    I'm not giving up hope. In the 3rd SA was hotter than I've seen any team in a long time--they hit everything, especially Parker. [We did some dumb things guarding him, but he was driving by whoever guarded him about as easily as Nash did.] Yet we were down 8 at most--I really thought SA was...
