    What would you give for Kevin Love

    Majerle had a lingering back injury that robbed him of his athleticism. Fans never understood that, and he wasn't about to show how much pain he was in. He had risky surgery that was supposed to alleviate the numbness in his leg and knee, but it took awhile for it to do anything what it was...

    What would you give for Kevin Love

    Seriously? Amare's departure was the source of so much hatred towards Sarver that he took inquiries into selling the team. Turned out, Kerr was right about the whole thing. Marbury and Marion were money decisions, but Marion's departure produced much angst in this town. Marbury never had his...

    What would you give for Kevin Love

    Every single player you listed besides Dragic was an all-star, and one of them won two MVPs. Dragic, not Bledsoe, had a valid argument to be selected for the all-star game. Who's being irrational?

    What would you give for Kevin Love

    I've been chatting with someone I consider an expert source on NBA analytics, and I've changed my tune somewhat on Kevin Love. I think his on-ball defense is bad and that reputation is well-earned, but his overall impact on the defense is much greater than most other players at his position...

    The Official 2014 NFL Draft Thread

    I hope it's Jimmy Garoppolo. LOVE his footwork. Ignore the people who say he has happy feet. Even Jaworski and Dilfer dismiss that criticism.

    Yes, #1 SS. Pryor and Clinton-Dix are FSs.

    OT: Donald Sterling

    Doesn't matter how it comes out. If you are caught saying things that damage the product -- and he said the absolute worst things you could say to damage the NBA product -- you are culpable as a business partner and subject to the morality clause in your agreement. Sterling isn't going to...

    2014 Draft morphing

    Oh man, I like Tucker, but they better address the forward situation. Young talent acquisition at both positions at the top of the list.

    2014 Draft morphing

    Bledsoe is aggressive to the basket, just like KJ. He's going to get injured, just like KJ. I don't think that's really in question.

    Recruiting

    Ack. I got confused because I know he's friends with Peart.

    Recruiting

    1. Bryce Perkins is a well-regarded dual-threat QB whose development this year will signal whether or not he stays at QB. If any of you remember his father, Bruce, you know what kind of ridiculous body he could grow into. It's a pretty big deal for ASU. 2. Perkins commitment is a big deal...

    Safeties Still Available Per SI

    I guess Rhodes kicked Bidwill's dog. Or something. It's mystifying.

    Cards reportedly signing CB LeQuan Lewis to a 2 year deal

    Lewis has freakish speed -- legit high-4.2/low-4.3 kind of speed with really smooth hips. I think he went to ASU because he was friends with James Harden (IIRC). JC transfer. Stupid coaches fought over him and never could decide if he was a corner or a receiver, so he never really got a chance...

    Top Gun 2

    I think I'm the only dude from my generation that never cared for that movie.

    How hard is it to learn how to program?

    Switching gears to pursue a career in web development, but I'm trying to do it the hard way. On purpose. Jumping into Java now, because I feel I will be better for it by learning the lower-level stuff and argumentation. I know most web dev is done in .Net and scripting these days, but the more I...

    RIP: James Rebhorn (1948-2014)

    I will always remember him in his twisting role in The Game, especially the inclusion of his real-life Advil ad.

    Rookie watch

    Len kind of reminds me of Nick Vanos, and Vanos didn't come on until the final 28 games of the season when he got playing time.

    The Flash (CW)

    Who did he kill that wasn't justifiable? There was no rage. He did nothing that cost innocent lives (in the modern timeline). There were no consequences. It's faux moral ambiguity if anything, and it was a temporary character flaw that was resolved in a snap with an after-school special speech...

    The Flash (CW)

    I was thinking more along the lines of The Incredible Hulk, which had better lead actor than Green Arrow, and embraced the whole two-sided coin of alienation and heroism. What it lacked in an expanding universe, it made up for in a regular theme. I think that's the strength of Green Arrow. Both...

    The Art of the Steal

    There's a few excellent actors in this movie. There's also Kurt Russell, who has made some catastrophic role choices in between a few choice all-time classics. A KR-led film has long odds of being good, but if it is, it's probably amazing. That's how his career has gone. Reasons I don't want to...

    The Flash (CW)

    Well, I watch Arrow a little too religiously. If I were going to give Season 2 a truth-in-advertising title, I'd call it ... Days of our Green Arrow: CSI. The family drama is right out of a daytime soap. (I'm quietly hoping Mother and Daughter Queen get killed off). Characters are...

    The Bledsoe dilemma

    Barbosa is a ham. Dragic ... I was looking for a gong.
