Dunleavy steps down in Clipperland. Enter Kim Hughes, who is apparently a dude. Life was hard, no doubt.

Re: Off Topic Thread
Don't hate me, but I have a..feeling...in the back of my mind...that Crash misses all-star weekend for some reason. Would they put in Jax? I'd say so, it'd only be fair.
What if Crash is out a couple weeks because of the hamstring pull?

Guy had plenty of chances and couldn't even be bothered to stay un-fat.
I'm glad we didn't resign him.

Haven't seen much house but I think Walter would be hard to beat. Such an interesting character interaction between Peter and Walter.

It's hard to compare House and Walter yet... House has been an evolving character over several seasons, he's really become very interesting in the most recent few. The question is what happens to Walter... if he remains exactly as he is, then he is what he is: a gimmick character. A great one, but like Ari Gold, one that is limited to the shtick that he has.

Re: Off Topic Thread
Thought of another Australian Football League / NBA player comparison today.
Boris Diaw and Scott Cummings.
Cummings always played well in his first year at a new team, he would work hard and become an important key position player. The next year would always be disappointing and he didn't seem as interested/enthusiastic as his first year. Until he got traded to another team where he would work hard and the cycle would start again.
Reminds me of Boris Diaw, all the complaints/discussions we are having about Diaw are the same that Phoenix were having. He started out great, but after a season started to disappoint. Some thought it was because he was sent to the bench and lost confidence, but it seems to be just the way he is.

Re: Off Topic Thread
Is that some kind of fantasy game?
Yeah, I know, I hope usual links will work on Friday (CET). Did you see Russell against Tom in that challenge, almost breaking his leg? Brutal.
And of course I wish Ethan good luck, I've heard about him having that disease before, hopefully he will make it through.
