K-State, Bedard, etc.

  • K-State in a mild upset over Kansas last night...yes, Kansas was undefeated but K-State has 2 of the most talented players (and maybe the best player) in the country in Michael Beasley and Bill Walker...and somehow I missed this before...but Beasley GUARANTEED a victory? wow....ballsy....well played sir
  • Apparently the Orioles are trying to extend Erik Bedard now that Peter Angelos rejected the deal for the time-being....random
  • Can't wait to see how wrong the all-star reserves list are....always a good time (named today)
  • Keep hearing this 3-way trade for Jason to Kidd to end up in Dallas by way of Portland....I'll believe it when I see it when it comes to 3-way in season deals
  • NBA Recap: Little breakout game for Al Thornton in a home win over the hawks (33 points)..good to see a guy who was supposed to NBA-ready coming into his own (he's already 23 after all)......Al Jefferson is officially a legit 20-20 threat every night (26-20 last night vs chicago) and an absolute beast.....Lebron with the killer down the stretch @ Portland...not shocking...he's absolutely unstoppable off the dribble and if he can ever find the shooting stroke....GL to the world
  • RC Buford to the rescue.....for those of you who don't know who that is (probably 99% of the population) He's the GM for the San Antonio Spurs and once again pulls a rabbit out of his hat getting Damon Stoudamire to Texas to help cope with the loss of Tony Parker for an extended time...really like the move even for when Tony Parker gets back because it means no more Jacque Vaughn......That said, the Spurs need Parker sooner rather than later because Damon's a nice stop-gap but this certainly isn't the same team without parker full-strength as the 3rd scorer/main ball handler
More later....
