Care to be ignored...Sixers remain hot, Collins continues his magic (haven't seen a coaching job like this in a long time), they close in on the Knicks in the standings, Iguodala has a triple double, and the headline is Love's streak.

on Sportscenter, they talked about Iguodala before Love.

I'm sick of this Andre "Iggy" Igoudala talk when there is a real Iggy out there who rocks.

"It's a basketball forum you say."

Well I say it's a Wolves punk rock forum and that we should all be talking about Iggy & the Stooges instead.

"We have a music thread you say."

Yeah, one measly thread. We should be talking about Iggy and punk music in every thread. Wolves board, GB, TB, even on that wussy soccer board.

:rocking:

Wow, that sucks! Are you using the on-screen keyboard then?

I'll probably just buy a replacement laptop keyboard and swap it out myself since they are fairly cheap and pretty easy to put in. I'd look into it since they only run about $20.00 - 30.00.

Couldn't you just buy a an external keyboard to to plug in? I guess it makes it less mobile but that's what Iggy would do.

Several weeks ago I accidentally deleted the button in my lower task bar where you can chose your keyboard's language/alphabet. Now I'm too stupid to find a way to get that feature back. I hate copying and pasting Norwegian umlauts whenever I type an e-mail or something. ARRRRGGGGHHH!

Did you try Control Panel - Regional and Language Settings?

You, fine Sir, deserve the "How can I help Basti from stupid situations by making him look like a fool" award! How could I have forgot looking through the Control Panel. Seriously, how dull am I?

Thanks :nod:

Cotton Candy for sale. Do they sell anything else at Target Center? Watching games on TV several times a game 20% of the court is blocked from view by large blue and pink balls of sugary goodness.

The best part is that they will yell "Last call for Cotton Candy"

"Ah man, you are cutting me off! WTF, I'm totally fine to drive!"

What I don't get is how we can go from a pretty much consistent 50 win team to just absolutely ****. What happened? Was it simply losing KG? For as much crap as Taylor gets, he was still in charge during the good years. So what's the **** difference?

also smart veteran players and Flip's system deserve some credit. We started getting greedy, kept trying to make homerun roster moves instead of the sneaky Gary Trent/Rod Strickland/Kendall Gill moves that were the glue of the team
