"100 million dollar man" is just a phrase. The person who wrote that was probably just exaggerating the amount that Real Madrid would pay him b/c it is more than he is making now in the NBA

i hate this idea. when dwight gets in early foul trouble and has to sit for long periods, gortat does well as his replacement. however, i do not think bass can hold up the fort for long periods against the starting centers of this league, even some of the ones that aren't that great. that is why otis values gortat so highly and pays him $$$$$$$$. by the way, AnotherCavsFan, you post way too much on this forum to not be a magic fan

i am just happy that there are going to be multiple concourses and more than 4 restrooms so there are no more lines of people waiting to pee during halftime that wrap halfway around the concourse

3 seconds violation on melo

please don't hate on tebow, ucf fans "Tebow signed a Nike shoe and apparel deal paying him just under $300,000 per year, with incentives to add more. Expect Gatorade and EA Sports to follow, especially if Tebow continues to gain first-round momentum." also in article... "the Philadelphia Eagles could be eyeing Tim Tebow for the upcoming 2010 NFL draft, reports SI

who do yall think should play more minutes in the playoffs, Barnes or Pietrus?

I know, that's why I wrote "Nets to offer Coach K $15M/yr" and not "Nets offer Coach K $15M/yr." There's a big difference. The quote from the article I posted also has the word"if." "If" is a conjuction that means "supposing that..." And if you read the article I provided, you would learn that it is all true. It says "The Bergen (N.J.) Record reported Monday that Prokhorov, despite Krzyzewski's earlier public expressions of disinterest, has continued to target Coach K as his No. 1 choice to coach the Nets" What do you mean by "Nice try though?" Do you think I'm trying to fool you? I have no desire to do so. I simply posted this thread to show that the incoming Nets owner is rich as hell and there is already a bold move on his part and talk of him spending big money before he even becomes the offical owner. I also wanted to show how Coach K. is not a sell-out and would rather stay at Duke and coach college kids than earn 3 times his current salary coaching in the NBA. That is all, thank you

"Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski told ESPN.com Monday morning that "I wouldn't have any interest in the job," even if incoming New Jersey Nets owner Mikhail Prokhorov offers to make him the highest-paid coach in the NBA in the range of $12 million to $15 million annually" http://sports.espn.go.com/ncb/...ews/story?id=5056964 Interesting segment from CBS's 60 Minutes on incoming New Jersey Nets owner Mikhail Prokhorov: http://www.cbs.com/primetime/6...s=homepage&play=true

Hell yea Bill Ingram, whoever you are, represent! i heard that if the Mavs loose on friday against the blazers, then we're the only team to beat every team in the league this year, pretty tight

Here's an overview of McNabb's great career so far that shows what the Eagles are letting go. Since he entered the league in the 1999 season, McNabb ranks: 3rd in the NFL in completions (2,801) 3rd in the NFL in yards (32,873) 4th in the NFL in passing touchdowns (216) 14th in passer rating (86.5) 3rd in pass plays of 25+ yards (273) Here is a comparison I found online of John Elway and Donovan McNabb for their first 11 years in the league. McNabb and Elway are very even with McNabb leading Elway in most statistical categories and being significantly better in interceptions, touchdowns, and QB rating. Coach Shanahan wouldn't get his hands on Elway until two years later in Elway's career. Elway was 35 when Shanahan took over the Broncos, and didn't finally win his Super Bowl until two years later. Can McNabb and Shanahan win a superbowl with the Redskins two years from now? It isn't likely, but don't count it out just yet. .............G ATT COMP % YDS Y/A TD INT Rate ELWAY 160 4890 2723 55.7 34246 7.0 183 167 75.9 MCNAB 148 4746 2801 59.0 32873 6.9 216 100 86.5

i hope it's a close game. even though butler hasn't lost a game in forever i have a feeling duke is going to win easily. i'll be rooting for the underdog. i luv coach k but if butler wins it would be a great cinderella story
