  1. No problem man, glad you put that article out there!

  2. Marcus,

    Do you have any interest in launching a North Carolina Blog and being the editor? Email me at joe@sportstechnow.com if you are interested.

  3. You're lucky you write good articles, I would never otherwise become a fan of a Miami fan. Maybe there's hope for you Hurricanes after all, haha.

  4. I'm fairly sure Tiger shot -12 at the 2000 US Open and won by 15 shots. Both are records, but your numbers seem off.

  5. And...thanks for the add!

  6. Thanks for the pick, Marcus!

  7. Marcus,

    The comment and the add were really nice of you, and very admirable. I honestly was expecting some long drawn out argument, but really to do what you did is mad love, I appreciate it. Real good looking out, but I'm still not forgiving you UNC cats for the victory against my Illini, lol. Take care man, and thanks again, I'll probably be using your example if I ever get into any similar debates on this site with anyone else

  8. Hey Marcus, I hope my second reply back to you didn't upset you as much as the first one (on the article re: GSP not fighting training partners or friends). And I forgot to mention how much I enjoyed the Matt Brown and Amir fight, it was one of the very best fights on Tuf 7 IMHO.

  9. But
    Bull shit call
    The cavileers suck!
    Lebron gets every call

    but you need to tell your boy Paul Pierce to shoot the ball

    that block call against pierce with 45 seconds was maybe the worst call I have ever seen in my life

    game 7 thought at home
    CELTICS TAKE IT BY 20

  10. Ray Allen
    3-8 from the field and 0-3 from the 3 point line
    9 points

    Paul Pierce
    5-15 from the field and 2-6 from the 3 point line
    16 points

  11. thanks for the pick of the day vote. "Why I Hate The San Antonio Spurs" was great.

  12. I have Joe Smith on the brain. Second time I've done that. The first time, I caught it before posting.

    Thanks for fixing it up for me...

    -Sean

  13. Thanks for the 'article of the day' vote. I will keep my eye out for your new work.

  14. Looking at it Russel played with 5 future hall of fame players over his career. He was on the dynasty but I argue that they only win three without him.

    Let us call an end and say that Jordan was the best guard and Russel the best big man.

  15. I am greatly enjoying our Bill Russel and Michael Jordan argument. You make very solid points.

    My beef with Jordan is that he had the best cast in town. He had at the time about the fifth best player in the league at SF in Pippen. He had the best rebounder in the league when he played. They didn't need a inside game because they could out rebound everyone and dish it out to Pip or MJ.

    I disagree with the Jordan averaging 50 when Russel played. Jordan would not have had the three point line. Defense on the guards was stressed immensely. Basketball was far more physical and Jordan would not have gotten all of his calls.

    I also fault Jordan for his gambling scheme. It was reported he bet on basketball before he retired the first time. It is often swept under the rug.

    I may be drawing a blank but I do not believe that the early 90's was that competative. The Rockets were back to back but did little else. The Jazz were dominate in the West. I really am having a hard time with the competition if you could throw out some names that would help.
