Uncle Du 22 Posted December 31, 2008 (edited) College hoops is MUCH better than the NBA, or as I like to call it, the National b****es Association. Only in "professional" basketball do grown men sit out 5 games for a ewokin hangnail. Gimme a break. Edited December 31, 2008 by Du Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mara 29 Posted December 31, 2008 Ahahaha, indeed. And my Cowboys, if they don't totally fail in conference play, could have a chance at making the tourney. I'm crossing my fingers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Uncle Du 22 Posted January 1, 2009 So the Broncos fired Mike Shanahan. The second longest tenured coach in the NFL and author of two Super Bowls, creator of numerous pro-bowl players, and he's gone. And oddly enough, our s***ty defensive coordinator got a free pass. Unbelievable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Princess 35 Posted January 2, 2009 Anyone else watch the Wings-Blackhawks game yesterday? Lots of fun to watch Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Uncle Du 22 Posted January 2, 2009 Don't kid, a lot of people have been saying that about Shanahan. Wouldn't shock me. Look at the success he had in Denver. And the thing is, it's not like someone else could do worse. Syracuse is 13-1. :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mara 29 Posted January 3, 2009 Haha. It honestly would not surprise me. I just hope they don't take a QB in the draft. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Uncle Du 22 Posted January 3, 2009 At this point, any position should help. :p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mara 29 Posted January 5, 2009 Haha, I know. But I think they need to focus anywhere but QB, at least for first pick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Uncle Du 22 Posted January 6, 2009 Ugh, Colorado sports are dreadful to watch this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Princess 35 Posted January 8, 2009 This is why I love hockey Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Uncle Du 22 Posted January 8, 2009 Ahh, just like a Detroit fan, highlight the empty net assist. :p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Princess 35 Posted January 8, 2009 But it was a freakin' sweet assist Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Uncle Du 22 Posted January 9, 2009 It woulda been sweeter if he juggled it like a soccer ball first, then headed it down ice. :p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Uncle Du 22 Posted January 25, 2009 NHL All Star skills challenge is on!! Woo hoo!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mara 29 Posted January 26, 2009 That All-Star game was sweet! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Uncle Du 22 Posted January 27, 2009 Getslaf shoulda won the breakaway challenge. All Ovechkin did was put on a damn hat, no hockey involved. Still fun to watch. Damn West, can't win a damn All Star game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Princess 35 Posted January 27, 2009 It's all cuz Datsyuk didn't get to play If he woulda been in the shoot out we would have won Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Uncle Du 22 Posted January 27, 2009 Yeaaaaa, says a lotta 'bout the wings, both their nominees can't make it to the game....and now they're both suspended for Tuesdays game. :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mara 29 Posted January 27, 2009 Yeaaaaa, says a lotta 'bout the wings, both their nominees can't make it to the game....and now they're both suspended for Tuesdays game. *giggle* I missed most of the skills challenges, though, so can't comment on the hat. All I know is that my sister hates Ovechkin's guts, so he annoys me too. :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Uncle Du 22 Posted January 27, 2009 He's an incredible hockey player, but he kinda annoys me too. He's too cockey. He's no Gretzky that's for sure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mara 29 Posted January 27, 2009 Mm'hmm. But he does look like a hockey player. Some of those guys look more like models, than hockey players. :p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Princess 35 Posted January 28, 2009 Well, they were both injured in the last game before the All-Star game and seriously, why should they have to travel when they're injured? One of Michigan State's hockey players has been suspended the rest of the season after a cheap hit against a Michigan player. Then apparently the Michigan player's dad tried to get into State's locker room. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Uncle Du 22 Posted January 28, 2009 (edited) "Injured". There was a question as to how serious their "injuries" were too. Could have used em tonight, can't believe Columbus won. And I need Datsyuk's points for fantasy too. At least Nash got me a trick against the Wings. Edited January 28, 2009 by Du Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
