My favorite part of the story is that, if Xao is to be believed, the Raptors GM might also be the guy from Matchbox 20. Nice stealth reporting uncovering his secret alter ego other last name.

Grats Ryne Sandberg

A true Chicago sports icon and someone I thoroughly enjoyed growing up watching. A throwback to the days of the hit-and-run, going first to third, and the bunt as a true weapon. Glad to see him inducted into the Hall of Fame.

Oscar Robertson and the Bucks won the championship in 1971, with Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. Kareem's name bears some mention in the "greatest of all time" category, since he is the all-time leader in total points scored for a career, plus he won 6 championships. Another name to throw into the mix is Bill ...

Xao, Cleveland has yet to make the playoffs even with LeBron and yet they've qualified for the middle tier? Yes, I think they can and should be better next year, but that was true heading into this year, too, according to most people.

Honestly, I'm not sold on Chicago either, much as I'd like to ...

I think that's a question that ultimately you have to answer personally. Few random thoughts I had:

Thought 1: Even if Nurses in country X make twice as much as in the US, you still have to consider; maybe it will be more difficult and take longer to get a job there. Maybe nurses have a lot more ...

why do the Cubs torment me like this

Ok, two years ago we were starting to look real good, and now this?

I mean, I bought into the whole "trade Sammy Sosa" thing, but this was the best we could get for him?

And the Joe Borowski story was great for that one year, but who in their right mind thought he was going to be a big-time ...

Dice question

An odd question came up at work and I'm curious if anyone has an "official" answer. We're wondering what the things are on dice that indicate the number of that side (i.e. the dots, or spots). Is there like a "jargon" term for them?

Thanks!

also, is it pick 2 guards, or pick a PG and an SG? similarly with Forwards. Sorry, I'm not familiar with other pools you all have done.

Ok, I recant my previous statement. I honestly thought the Pistons were gonna get their asses handed to them in 4 or 5 games, with at least 2 blowout losses. Instead, this series is proving how good a coach Larry Brown is, how good the Pistons are, especially defensively, and this series may very ...

Blazers choke history

A decade runs 1-10, so 2000 may as well count. But they have a mad history of choking the whole 10 years, starting back in 1990, when they lost 3 home games to the Pistons. Then losing at home in 1991 to the Lakers. Then an historic choke job in 1992 in game 6 against the Bulls, when they couldn't ...
