Good thing I have McFadden on my fantasy team. He's going to get a ton of carries.

I disagree. It shouldn't be the NBA's responsibility to make sure teams are getting talent. Its up to those front offices to make the right personnel decisions. The league has never been able to do that and IMO this is the closest they will ever get to it. Every team besides maybe Milwaukee and Toronto off the top of my head have a star player Another problem is letting a player hold a franchise hostage like Carmelo did last season. They have to find a way to eliminate that because nothing good comes out of it.

Number 5 in attendance? Not to mention, every time we came to town I'm sure it was that teams highest attendance. I'm not gonna turn this into a Heat vs. anyone thing though because that's not what it is. You're just a [expletive]ing retard.

This is all on Stern and the owners. Over the past 20 + years they've created the problem due to overexpansion and letting weak ownership groups become included into an 'exclusive' club they can't really afford and it's now coming home to roost. The best owners/franchises in the league are being held hostage by the worst IMO. There are all these mumblings coming out where the Heat are the root of the problem, or the process that led to the Heat becoming what they are. Didn't the NBA just have it's best season since MJ was playing? If some of these teams have the problems they say they do where they will lose less money by not playing then the system is clearly messed up along with the deals they've struck and the fact that the markets they operate in do not have the want/need/ability to support their franchise. Moves like these are why we are where we are today (this is nothing against those franchise's or fanbases either): -Vancouver to Memphis. That team should have never left in the first place, but the problem was made worse by a move to stick a club in the 2nd largest town in TENNESSEE...c'mon -Let Charlotte's garbage owner move to NO who used to have a team and never supported it. They don't support sports period and if the NFL allowed Benson..the Saints would've been gone years ago. The Hornets are now owned by the League -Then another super move, hey lets put another team where one just failed miserably! Enter, the Charlotte Bobcats. To be honest, clubs like New Orleans, Sacramento, Minnesota and Milwaukee might need to bite the dust and move the Grizzlies to Seattle. Again, nothing against those fanbases but it needs to happen or we'll be right back to where we are today when the next deal expires. The NBA is just not well run, PERIOD. Another example is League Pass. Huge piece of shit. You can't even get all the games on HD through Comcast. Meanwhile MLB is giving you "Extra Innings" in HD with a home and away telecast on any system imaginable. Point is, the owners have run this thing into the ground and that's why we are where we are right now.

The league needs contraction regardless.

Thursday: San Diego St @ Air Force USC @ California Friday: Hawaii @ San Jose St Saturday: LSU @ Tennessee Alabama @ Ole Miss Oklahoma @ Kansas Indiana @ Wisconsin Boise St @ Colorado St Oklahoma St @ Texas Stanford @ Washington St Clemson @ Maryland Arizona St @ Oregon Michigan @ Michigan St Georgia Tech @ Virginia South Carolina @ Mississippi St Ohio State @ Illinois Kansas St @ Texas Tech Virginia Tech @ Wake Forest Baylor @ Texas A&M Florida @ Auburn Utah @ Pittsburgh Miami @ North Carolina Northwestern @ Iowa Navy @ Rutgers Purdue @ Penn St

Na..ECN gon ECN.

^^LOL @ Finley not being top 5. He's arguably the best in the game. And when did Rodgers start crying when things weren't going our way?

Go Cardinals! Only because I know Jon Jay.

I'll agree with AL on this one. CP3 IMO, has done the most with by far the least talent around him.

^^Its Wade vs. LBJ but naturally Wade put the Jordan guys on his team. Wade's squad is gross but it could go either way. I just wanna see some nasty highlights.

Throwing former teammates under the bus? Never. I like Kobe but this wasn't necessary.

Bases loaded with 1 out twice..only coming up with 1 run is embarrassing for this lineup.

How lucky was that..

1. LeBron James 2. LeBron James 3. LeBron James 4. LeBron James 5. LeBron James

Big inning by Soriano right there.

How do we give up another homer to Delmon Young...

California @ Oregon - Oregon should win by a lot Boise State @ Fresno State - It'd be nice for them to play a real team every now and then Florida @ LSU - LSU dominates at home Vanderbilt @ Alabama - rape Oklahoma @ Texas - OU is just better this year Kansas @ Oklahoma St - rape Colorado @ Stanford - easy W for Stanford Boston College @ Clemson - let the hype continue Auburn @ Arkansas - Their D may suck, but Arkansas isn't very good. Michigan @ Northwestern - Denard goes HAM Maryland @ Georgia Tech - Jackets win at home Ohio State @ Nebraska - good luck scoring Connecticut @ West Virginia - WVU easily Kentucky @ South Carolina - too much defense Illinois @ Indiana - Zookers become bowl eligible Missouri @ Kansas State - their offense is gay as hell, but it works Miami @ Virginia Tech - homer pick, but VT looked horrific against Clemson. If we force Logan Thomas to throw we'll take it. Arizona State @ Utah - Arizona St. defense shuts down Utah Florida State @ Wake Forest - FSU gets back on track with an easy W Texas A&M @ Texas Tech - bounce back W for A&M Iowa St @ Baylor - RG3 saves the season Iowa @ Penn State - they're just a better team at this point Georgia @ Tennessee - UT and that offense at home Pittsburgh @ Rutgers - too much Ray Graham Louisville @ North Carolina - Louisville is the worst team ever

Let's add to it now with the bases loaded and no outs.

Clearly still holding a grudge but whatever. We made the right choice. Rodgers will end up being better.

Back to reality..

2nd hit batter by Porcello. Tex on with 1 out.

3 solid innings from AJ. Let's hope he stays consistent.

2 great plays back to back from Jeter and A Rod. C'mon AJ let's finish this inning out strong!

Jeter with a huge hit.
