Making moves?
It is the night of the NBA trading deadline and as a Bulls fan I think the most interesting thing I've discovered so far is that Drew Gooden had that patch of hair on the back of his head because he said he stole it from that white spot on Rasheed Wallace's head. Here is a pichttp://sportswrap.berecruited.com/2007/06/03/ode-to-drew-goodens-hair-gooden-explains-his-duck-tail-hair-cut/ Drew no longer has the "Sheed", and its too bad because there is not much else to talk about with they're deal. I have no problem dumping Ben Wallace (can't hustle when you can't move anymore), and Joe Smith (actually was productive in spurts but hard to believe this guy was a #1 overall pick). I just don't understand how you end up with with the guys Lebron doesn't want to play with. From everything I've seen so far people like this trade for the Bulls. I just don't see it, a pu-pu platter for a dung sandwich. I do like getting Shannon Brown I feel like he has a lot of potential. John Paxson has been holding his pocket aces and checking for three years now. He had more young talent than anyone in the league and could have pulled the trigger on Garnett, Gasol, or Jermaine O'Neal. His biggest mistake was not firing on the Kobe deal this summer. Just a few short months ago he could have the best player in the world for Ben Wallace (we just got a view of his current market value) & Luol Deng. This guy should be on 24hr watch. Speaking of 24, quick note, I heard that due to the writers strike we will not be getting a new season until NEXT January. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/24_(season_7) People tell me all the time that its getting old, and that the premise is the same every season. I think that it may have gotten a little stale but compare it to everything else on TV right now excluding a few shows (Lost.......well really just Lost) what would you want to watch? Sure there are a few good reality shows Rock of Love is great, The Moment of Truth (How can you not love a show where the audience claps for prior criminal activity) and my current favorite My Big Redneck Wedding (if you haven't seen it, you have to watch) http://www.cmt.com/sitewide/apps/flipbook/index.jhtml#/sitewide/apps/flipbook/index.jhtml?fid=1580788&flipbookid=1580788&opener=/shows/dyn/my-big-redneck-wedding/series.jhtml&trueFid=1580788&photoID=2763848 Let me give you a small excerpt from the last show I watched. There was a guy writing his vows and he said he wanted to use bigger words but didn't have a clitoris. A couple of quick thoughts before I go, as always the NHL is wide open. The Rangers are a playoff team that looks like its going nowhere unless they can make some deadline deals. The Sabres had a wonderful come from behind victory the other night against Tampa, how about Vanek. This guy is going to end up with 35 goals after struggling early in the season. My gut feeling though is that they trade Campbell at the deadline to risk having a Drury, Briere repeat. Everyone was talking about the Shaq vs. Kobe matchup from the other night. Great game if you watched. I think the biggest beneficiary of Shaq being on Phoenix is going to be Amare, he looked like no one was guarding him because of the attention that still has to be paid to Shaq. That wasn't the story though. How good did the Lakers look? When Bynum gets back this team is going to be tough. One other observation from the debuts. Jason Kidd got swallowed up by Chris Paul. Paul's stat line 31-11-5-9! He's starting to get a lot of MVP talk. Lastly I wanted to ask this question to the group. I'm facing a moral dilemma. My wife has a name in mind for our first born daughter that I'm not real crazy about. She knows this and has presented me with a deal. We are currently renovating the upstairs of our new home and I am turning an old kitchen into a bar. We have conflicting views on what this bar should look like. Namely I want to paint it blue and gold and put WVU emblem carpet in. She presented me with an offer she gets to name the baby and I get the WVU bar. Let me know your opinions.........maybe she could be the Bulls new GM!

Where to begin? I'm not quite as angry about the tarde, er trade* lol, as you. I agree that something could and probably should have been done sooner, but really I'm just glad to be rid of Wallace. Those saying Cleveland is going to make a run are smoking crack... Wallace was NEVER any good in my opinion, he benefitted from those around him and was a pretty good athlete. You can see what happens when he's not surrounded by 4 stars AND his athleticism wanes into oblivion.
Don't get T started on that 'Redneck Wedding' show... she loves it. Of course, she loves any reality show pretty much... eats it up like Tyrone Biggums in a Willy Wonka Crack Factory lol. I've seen bits and pieces and let me say this... it puts out a good argument that BOTH Evolution AND Intelligent Design are complete and utter FAILURES lol. Back to the drawing board G-Man.
Going to the Sabres/Habs game next Friday... can't wait! Getting a limo from work around 3:30 next Friday (as a reward for this successful project we had recently). Going to be doing dinner and 'some' boozing and enjoying the game... lovin' the hockey right now... NHL 08!
Kidd Trade... garbage... Kidd is over the hill... Dallas is Done lol... Chris Paul... stud...
Ok, so, the question remains what is the NAME mojo? We can't give our opinion on your wife's 'deal' unless we know the NAME? E.G. - It's a terrible deal if the name is Brunhilda or June or Tage's Future Girlfriend... however, Antoinette or Percefany would be reasonable lol... so what is the name? And if you can't tell us for some reason or another... TERRIBLE deal LOL... TERRIBLE
The name is Lorelai, I should've just included it.
Lorelai? So, I just did some research on the name because as far as the 'sound' of it I didn't have any complaints... and the first thing I realize is that your wife wants to name your first daughter after a character in a teen TV show lol? (Gilmore Girls)... first hit on google lol...
That would be enough to turn me off lol, then I found this... now, as the 'father' I may have a problem with the 'meaning' of this name, as a friend/future suitor, however,... lol... well you decide...
Lorelai - Temptress; A rocky cliff on the Rhine river dangerous to boat passage; the Lorelei whose singing lures men to destruction.
Ooh, sounds like a hot lover! I'm assuming you both have at least researched the name this far lol? Or did it start/end with the Gilmore Girls LOL?
Actually Mo, those things aside, I don't think that is such a bad name. I was expecting Mildred or Large Marge or something lol.
And who doesn't love a 'temptress' LOL ;)
No hadn't got to "temptress" gilmore girls was pretty much it.
Dude, is Greg oden the ugliest person alive? I can't take it anymore. Now he has a friggin mohawk. To think he went to school to be a dentist is appalling to me. "Hi, I'm Doctor Oden, let me stick my giant meat paws in your mouth..." Thank God for basketball!! Without it some poor sap would be layed back in a chair, mildly sedated, and wondering when this mongoloid was going to put on his surgical mask. I'm no beauty, but hot damn....On the positive side, at least Joakim Noah finally has someone to go clubbin' with. He's bound to get laid when 2am decision time rolls around.
Off topic, but i had to get this off my chest.
I guess I have to ask. Just how close are you to having said first-born daughter? Is there some news you wish to share with the World?
I hate to say it, but I kind of like the name. Damn, I like the bar, too. I just can't decide.
I added you to my Chautauqua Blog list over on good 'ole makkaio.com. Good job! You rate, buddy!
