    Risky Bidness--very boring, long read

    One of my longterm interests/hobbies has been accepting/evaluating/absorbing risks, and that quite naturally led me later to sports betting. I have known a number of entrepreneurs over many years and have been one myself and practically everyone without exception has taken on more than a fair...

    "My Husband Will Not Be the Knick's Next Coach"

    heres the link from the NY Post but registration (free) is required so i'll just cut and paste the gist of it. Also it notes that Brown had minor bladder surgery last week. "July 6, 2005 -- LARRY Brown will not coach the Knicks next year, and instead hopes to return to the Pistons' bench...

    shut the door, you're letting in a draft

    the two picks that interested me the most were Granger going to Indiana and LAL pick of Bynum. Granger was someone I'd followed a bit the past year, and I can tell you he's more than a bit surprised he fell so much and I know at least one mock draft had him as high as 4th. He's a good kid from...

    Peter Holt

    Many of you may know he is the owner of the Spurs. He bought the team from a real loser in my opinion, a car salesman named Red McCombs (same one with the Vikings). This happened in '93. A year or two prior to that McCombs actually "fired" Brown from the Spurs though it was debatable exactly...

    Referee Redux

    I noticed on this forum that there was a fairly high level of scrutiny directed toward the officials during the playoffs, but mostly concentrated on games 1 and 2 of the finals. Of course, a lot of that was precipitated by Larry's infamous 1-7 comment ostensibly directed at Garretson and Dan...

    Manu

    I'd mentioned previously that Parker's replacement (Udrih) has been less than stellar in this series (particularly in gms 3 and 4 obviously), so Manu played quite a bit of pg in game 5. I'd expect even more of the same. What can Det do to stop this? I'd say half and full court trap him...

    thoughts about gm 5

    Think Pop made some nice changes that helped last night. For one, Beno Udrih is the 23 yo replacement for Parker that can't handle Detroit's pressure so he benched him for the entire game and let Manu handle the pressure when Parker was on the bench. Manu wasn't electric last night but played...
