Weird Summer 1

Jul

2013

It’s been a weird summer so far for the NBA. Just a few examples… – Howard leaves LA for Houston. That’s not the weird part, the weird part is that it seems like the Clippers might end up being the better LA team for the next 4 or 5 years. – Phil Jackson’s Twitter account. ...

Shark Week no more 2

Jul

2013

Don’t worry, you still could be watching seals get chomped up in little pieces, but an Australian firm believes it has created a wet suit that will protect humans from shark attacks. Who knew that you should wear clothing that replicates sharks predators or clothing that makes you appear the same as a poisonous fish. ...

New Big 3 on the West Coast 4

Jul

2013

Maybe I’m missing something, but I believe I was scoffed at when I previously mentioned the possibility of Carmelo and LeBron going to Los Angeles next year to usher in a new era of Laker Legends. http://probasketballtalk.nbcsports.com/2013/07/17/report-the-lakers-want-to-chase-lebron-and-melo-next-summer-is-that-news/ NBC Sports is reporting on the possibility, ESPN is reporting on it, Bleacher Report is reporting on it, ...

A Letter to the African American Community

Jul

2013

(Note: this is not a typical Carguments post. Nobody is trying to argue here. Just trying to find some common ground so we can move this country forward) Dear Community, I write to you as a white man who is just trying to understand. Who wants to see where/how hurts can be healed and progress ...

Hernandez is going to walk, bank on it. 6

Jul

2013

Since they didn’t arrest him for obstruction of justice I hardly believe they will go after that since they believe they have him for homicide. The funny part is, how in the world can he get convicted with out having the murder weapon? Johnnie Cochran says,” if the glove don’t fit you must acquit”, well ...

A new big 3 for 2014? 9

Jul

2013

Although the NBA tried to stop teams from creating a big 3 or a big 2 1/2. While this years NBA Free Agency lacked movement I suspect next seasons is already being planned. You may be wondering why I say this, and while people in Cleveland have their panties in a bundle and their rally ...

The Road to 90 6

Jul

2013

True to my handle, I figured I better post an update on “The Road to 90″. I’ve played a handful of times this year, although once was a 9 hole scramble. Most of my rounds have been at my home course. My rounds have been consistent. Consistent in their inconsistency, that is. Drives have been ...

The Dwightmare saga starts again 6

Jul

2013

Here we go again. Every time this happens he says ,”ah no, it wont happen like that again. I’ll be straight up, and i’ll make a good decision…” bla bla bla. It happens every time Dwight Howards gets a chance to look at his options. Why can’t he just make a decision. It’s truly not ...

American’s can get citizenship elsewhere for sports but not for refuge status? 6

Jul

2013

Perhaps I am the only one looking at the Edward Snowden situation in a slightly different light than “traitor” or “patriot”. How many times do we see athletes leaving their home countries to get citizenship in another country to join their athletics? The US national teams are often comprised of people who are naturalized citizens ...

Bynum 1

Jul

2013

Apparently Andrew Bynum doesn’t wanna workout for the teams that are looking to sign him. Does that mean he’s decided he’s done with the NBA? If any team is willing to sign him to a contract any longer then 10 days without having him workout, they’re crazy.
