It's been sticky'd for some reason.

What's the big deal? At the time, it was a huge thread, and they made it a sticky. Joe just hasn't switched it back yet.

Sorry guys. When Skkorpion started this thread he made it sticky. I'm so dumb I kept wondering when he would change it. Duh!

It's now unsticky or slippery or something like that.

<b>I can't square the above description of a magnanimous Colangelo and then a Colangelo that would squander Big Jake to squirrel a few measly bucks after the considerable international hijinks it took to get him here.

Of course you can't. Because that would prohibit you from coming in here and complaining about it. You've got a grand total of 8 posts here and for some reason you already rank among the top as one of the smuggest, most pretentious posters on this site. How can that be?

With regard to your point however, The "considerable international hijinks" ( as you so elloquently put it, that the Colengelos spent to get Big Jake here are a sunk cost. The efforts is gone and has no logical bearing on the decision to let him go. He wasn't panning out. Thats it.

But that scenario doesnt afford you the ability to come in here and start pontificating about it, does it?

Don't worry. He's gone.

Thankfully. WHo was it? You guys apprently knew him. I know I responded to like a week old post, but I kept running across it and it kept pissing me off....

He's the virus of Suns fans boards. He's run through eight or ten usernames on the ESPN board, always trolling with the same tedious stuff. I don't think anyone knows his real name.

At least we are not the only ones waiving hopeful NBA talents.



Dallas waives Josh Powell.
Philadelphia waives Sam Clancy.
Los Angeles Clippers waive Tremaine Fowlkes.
Boston waives Mateen Cleaves.

Hopefully the Lakers waive Jamal Sampson. He would have been a guy that the Suns should have tried to get into their camp.
At least he has size and youth.

I really liked Sam Clancy in the NCAA.
He was a projected mid-late 1st rounder of the 2002 NBA Draft when he torn his ACL.

A Bucks fan about Sampson:

"Last year he was the youngest player in the NBA, younger than Amare. The Bucks thought enough of him to keep him around all year. Going into this year no one needs help up front more than the Bucks and yet they waived him before even the summer league. Why?

Last season he was lazy. Didn't practice hard. He was told if he wanted to stick around this year he would have to work harder. The team arranged two private workouts for him this summer with the coaching staff. He was a no show for both, didn't bother to call, nothing. Leaving the coaches sitting there waiting for him. After the second time he was waived.

Yeah he's young and big. He's also as dumb as they come. Be careful what you wish for."
