Rants and Raves - The Mid Week
Apr 09, 2008 | 7:29PM | report this
What's up all...all of my projects are in full swing, so my weeks are getting a bit full...I still will be blogging, as it is my new therapy....however, I won't blog much about baseball...I will see you in September...I love baseball, but it's just too long, and you can live and die with it if you get caught up...never liked fantasy baseball...again, too long, and you play against guys who are minor league experts and monitor call ups, and next you know they have a nobody in their lineup going 4 for 4.....wanted to check in and give props to Kansas...after that comeback, they were destined...and the FTs finally caught up to Memphis. Rose is the real deal, and Douglas-Roberts can probably develop his game in the mode of a Stacey Augmon/James Posey type, maybe a little better...wasn't Corey Brewer supposed to come into the league and start locking folks down? So Love and Collison are off to the big show, huh....Love is nice, but I don't think he's quick enough yet...quick, you can develop, fast is there....hoping Collison changes his mind (Edney, Dollar)...this last full week of basketball is like watching the stock market...it's great, every game means something...unless it's Miami vs Memphis...and even that has lotto implications I think....as for the fantasy squad...I was hoping for the third place finish and I was in 7th place on Friday.....due to the eruptions from 'Melo and Monte, I grabbed third place on Sunday night comfortably, and if all the stars align, I could steal the league...very slim chance, but I am kind of proud of my managing...all of these sporadic DNPs has me looking at a chance...I know I cried about Earl Watson last week...but I didn't panic and kept him, mostly because he saved his job over the weekend and has been nice for far this week...hope you were watching the Mo Williams thing...he's killing his owners right now...cross your fingers with me....Shaq missed that last game as a "precaution"...I look at it as a chink in the armor....Nuggets/Warriors should be a great game tomorrow......have a great rest of the week, and you have fantasy questions, I am here to help...

Had to meet with my lawyer about my divorce from the Bruins. After three years, the mental abuse has become too much. Year after year, I yearn for a mentally tough point guard in the big game, and it's just not there. My point guard misrepresented our relationship, and the #### is up. The 1st Half Tyler Hansborough is the kind of pro I expect him to be....OK, it's official, I have the man crush, baller style, thing for Monte Ellis. Everybody saw on national TV today what I have been talking about. A couple of weeks ago, I wished for him to start shooting threes.....he's starting to shoot them...beware....this kid is 21 years old. OK....is Mike Woodson now a good coach? Not. I don't know...Atlanta has always been like that hot girl behind the bleachers trying to get you away from your girlfirend. Looking a little bit more sexy...looking at you with do me eyes....but it's all just a tease....I didn't get a chance to do my due-diligence on the pickups for you guys like I wanted to...here's my pick up list from my free agent pool...keep in mind that mine is based if you might kill me in FG fna FT, you are not here....Biedrins, Quinn, Azibuke...interesting here....Captain Jack is in a funk right now, and Nellie must ease back a little bit...Jackson is costing them games....Garcia (again)...Scola, L.Powe, D.Brown, J. Childress....I hate to admit it, but Phoenix looks good with Shaq....I am just waiting for reality that the Big Cactus will revert back to the Big Injury...nobody can question Shaq when he's healthy...just a little Laker reality check for us...what I can't figure out, is how Riley couldn't figure out how to use Shaq better? Or least had a better plan for managing the squad through the rough spots....I don't know, I don't micro-manage....just stating stuff that seems extremely obvious to me.....I love Riles, but he might be losing his touch a bit from the coaching side. Have a good week, and may your fantasies mirror your realities...hey, this may become my signoff!

So, like I said, Curry can go for 25 and they will still lose. Great game though. 1 out of 4 ain't bad, I guess. Met the parents down on the strip for dinner last night. I hate going down there. It's all so inflated, prices, attitudes, everything. I watched a good documentary on Shirley Chisholm. She made a run for president in 1972. I was only a kid at the time, and have faint memories "of a black woman running for president." Pretty good documentary, as it detailed her campaign run, and all the obstacles, both obvious and not, that she faced. It was on PBS...if you see it on your guide, tune in. America wasn't ready for her.

So Jermaine O'Neal is supposed to play tonight. All that does is mess up my minutes for T.Murphy. Granger really doesn't play well with JO either, so my fingers are crossed for my Pacer tag-team this week. Snagged Marvin Williams off the wire, as I am trying shore up the FG%. You Bogut owners are sweating. He's day to day, but the ever present "shut it down" is a possibility. Still no Agent Zero...maybe this week. He once said that Chris Mullin, I believe, told him, that you don't come back on the road, you come back at home. The debate has begun: Is CWebb a Hall of Famer? I don't think so. You kind of have to step out of moment. There are tons of CWebbs not in the hall. If he is, then so is Larry Nance. So is Rex Chapman. Going with my instincts, CWebb did nothing at Golden State, did nothing at Washington, had three or four (or five) good years with the Queens, did nothing in Philly, and did nothing again in Golden State. Again, if he is a hall of famer, then so is Craig Ehlo. Take a guy who is been in the league just as long, Michael Finley...is he a hall of famer?
