And Speaking of the NFL

[Black Diamond]

Like it or not the Bad Boys were the end of the team era in the NBA, after them it became Jordan and the Bulls, or Kobe and the Lakers, or LeBron and whoever is paying him the most this year. And there was history to that handshake thing, the Bulls did that first.

I had to hear these excuses ever since I moved from Chicago to west Michigan in 1987. Pistons could do no wrong, Scottie pippen was just as dirty, pistons were right to walk off, etc.

Isiah started it all, being from Chicago, and couldn't handle it that Jordan was bigger in Chicago than he was.

I just remember it. I grew up on Dr J and George Gervin and you can bet your ass I can finger roll a ball. And if the Bulls did it first, how come that doesn't STILL make ESPN highlights? But the pouting Pistons does? And how about that classless brawl in the stands?

I'm from San Antonio. We don't exactly watch a lot of Pistons games down here. And I lived for a couple of years in IL like 2 years ago .... all I remember is the Bulls keep wasting money on some guy that stays hurt. As previously stated, I don't watch much pro sports anymore. They're a bunch of wimps.

Baseball players that can hit think they don't have to field. Basketball players that can dunk can't shoot for shit. And most of these football players couldn't actually tackle anything to save their asses.

Derek Rose needs more surgery again. He will probably miss an entire season. It's funny to watch the bulls be stupid. Their management has always been stupid.

I don't think the Bulls were dirty. The Celtics were dirty. The Bulls did benefit greatly from the league wanting to make Jordan a superstar and then cash in on him though, deny that if you want but I'll just laugh at you.

You have to admit bird was the toughest bastard ever. Laimbeer would lay him out and he would come back and hit six in a row. Plus he was white....

The Celtics were dirty? When was THAT?

I ain't denying anything. You can't deny Jordan's skills, but that is my whole point to my comments on pro sports. Be from a small market town, THEN lecture me. The Spurs have to play the other team AND the NBA when they win. The NBA wants LA and NY every damned year.

Kevin McHale was the nastiest basketball player I've ever seen. And he was like that every single game.

King of trash talk. And tough as nails.

I asked BD to deny it, not you but I'll laugh at you anyway.

Yeah, the Celts were dirty. You think Laimbeer and Mahorn were bad? Well, they were but the whole reason the Bad Boys were put together was to deal with the Celtics.

Sharp elbows too and he used them all the time.

I don't know about the league and that conspiracy theory. That's why I didn't respond.

[Gunny]

It's not really a conspiracy theory. They're out to make money. They're just like the rest of the media and rely on their media cohorts to pimp their work. They don't make as much money off the Finals in a sweep, and they don't make as much money if a small market team is in.

It's more of a calculation than conspiracy.

[Black Diamond]

I never said it wasn't true. Not all conspiracy theories are untrue.

I know but I already had the ROFL's queued so I went with it.
