Looks like Tony Parker is trying to talk his way out of San Antonio.

Cue Tony Parker + Dejuan Blair to the Knicks for Douglas (could young "point guard" with elite defensive potential - yeah right :lol:

), Billups (old and savvy helps the Spurs compete with his clutchness - despite the fact that he's not an above-average clutch player), and a Knicks 2nd Round Pick.

RIP Macho Man Randy Savage. One of the greatest people of my childhood and one guy that I always had goosebumps watching when I was young, just pure entertainment, was a shame he was treated like crap by the WWF.

Damn man, that's **** sad.

SpeedyG · Post #587 » by **SpeedyG** » Fri May 20, 2011 5:33 pm

damn...no more Macho Man...the guy is a legend, and his interviews were always classic.

On a side note, had a dream last night. I was e-mailing back and forth with Billy King, and he revealed to me his priority targets in FA.

See below to find out who they are (spoiler in white).

Steve Kerr and Luc Longley.

I kid you not. That's what my dream told me we were going after.

OK but what does that mean? I doubt that we can sign Jordan and Pippen to recreate the Bulls dynasty so that doesn't really help us lol.

I found this video fascinating from a medical standpoint, hope you guys can appreciate it too.

I wonder how long it took him to realize "Hmm, I might have something crawling under there"

I don't know lol, that's why it's weird. Maybe it means we'll target a backup PG who can shoot lights out and a plodding center?

Never liked Twitter but recently joined to follow companies that make important announcements about software & electronics and also to follow a select few NBA players (e.g. D12) and others.

I was just wondering... I designed a twitter theme but don't really plan to use my twitter so am likely going to give it away.

twitter.com/myusernameonnetsdaily for preview.

Not that anyone asked, but here are my favorite TV shows at the moment.

1-Community - Undisputed #1. AT the beginning of the 2010-2011 season, my 2 favorite sitcoms were HIMYM and Community. I had them ranked 1a and 1b respectively despite HIMYM's crummy 5th season and Community's pretty good 1st season. I decided to give HIMYM a break since it was older and I had no idea if Community would be able to sustain it's great freshman season. Boy did they sustain it and then some. The show is pretty much the funniest sitcom on TV but it's also one of the best written shows in general. It doesn't settle for sitcom cliches and it has one hell of cast. If you aren't watch or aren't ever planning on watching it, I'm sorry, but you're an idiot.

2- 30 rock, up there with Community when it comes to pure laughs. That is all.

3- Cougartown - dumb name aside, this show is completely underrated. It's a bill lawrence show so you know It has heart, but the characters are great. Not much to say about it, just a REALLY good show.

4-HIMYM - It's funny, the show bounced back in a great way this year but I still have to give it a low ranking. The show is still funny but one could argue that it isn't even in the top 5 in that category anymore (Community, Cougartown, Parks and Rec, 30 Rock, Archer are all funnier at this point). But that's ok, since this seasons focused more on emotional storylines than it ever had in the show's history. One of my biggest complaints would be that the show or the writers to be exact have gotten so lazy, the jokes have become hit or miss and when they miss they miss badly. Plot points are predictable and managed to introduce a character no one actually liked and kept her in the show for the entire season. Still a damn good show but I'm not in love with it anymore, Community is my new love).

5- Dexter - Was in my top 3 before but the 5th season ended in a whimper.

Just missed the cut:

Archer - Once it has more episodes it'll be in my top 5, easily.
The Walking Dead - Same as Archer.
Raising Hope - Funny show but it's missing... something.

lol at me procrastinating and not finishing my research paper due tomorrow.

I use to watch V, would never make my top show list, but I enjoyed it. Lost track this season, I'll catch up to it eventually.

The Big Bang Theory sucks.
