We are going to wait until the dust settles before getting into the Alex Rodriguez press conference. I know many of you were expecting us to jump on this right away, since we haven’t been bashful about A-Roid, but today just wasn’t the day we wanted to tackle the subject. We promise to disect what was said today in the near future.
I would have to say that this was one of the better days around these parts in recent days. Mostly because I was the one giving fire to the people.
There was a linksplosion in TMA, and I even was a little political.
TWTWCBB returned to get you caught up on what is happening as we get closer to March. We talked very little about the Big East this week, because we were too focused on figuring out a new formula from the “expert” of the ACC.
We then learned that the Seattle Mariners were a bad baseball team last season, and will be a bad baseball team this season.
I had not posted a list in several months, so I told you about my favorite wrestling finishers.
That brings us to Happy Hour, where we get you ready for what to watch tonight on the boob tube.

I’ll only say this about A-Roid…I hope he gave his “cousin” a heads-up about what he was going to say at the press conference.

GITC made the SG position…
The 10-man rotation, starring Mbenga vs. Mihm
(Quote)
No Studs & Duds today? I was sure GITC’s hack formula could have given us some kind of list, even with no games.
(Quote)
Does anyone here watch NCIS? Very good underrated show.
(Quote)
I’m surprised that there wasn’t a studs and duds for the All-Star game
(Quote)
We didn’t see a S&D for the ASG, because Paul Pierce would have been a Stud.
/P-Pie’s cousin > A-Rod’s cousin
//71-11

I’m pretty sure that when I ran the Studs and Duds formula over the All Star box score it had CP3 as Stud of the Day.

And yet Shaq was a co-MVP? Where did Kobe and Shaq rank?
(Quote)
Checking…
(Quote)
Is the Thunder now better than the Hornets?
(Quote)
wtf? Todd McSchay should be fired. He ranked Brian Hoyer as the 5th best QB in the draft. is he mental? Hoyer is Hoyerble.
(Quote)
Our first nominee for “Things Sparty Says that he knows people will disagree with him on”… that should get put into “worst comment of the month”.
(Quote)
ESPN can’t fire McShay. They just got him that new ginormous touch screen TV toy for Sportscenter, that’s probably worth more than he is.

All Star Game S&Ds:
Studs
1. Chris Paul
2. Kobe Bryant
3. Pau Gasol
4. Brandon Roy
5. Shaquille O’Neal
Duds
1. Joe Johnson
2. Yao Ming
3. Allen Iverson
4. Devin Harris
5. Danny Granger
So in other words, East – Duds, West – Studs, Yao not fitting in.

John, that thing reminds me of PlayStation 3 for some reason. Gottlieb was playing with it this morning.
(Quote)
besides, if you remove mcshay, kiper is the only one left. do you want mel kiper to be THE draft guru?
(Quote)
Mike Mayock is THE draft guru.
(Quote)
Thanks GITC. Of course Yao doesn’t fit, he’s 7′6″.

sparty I have lost all respected for you. I can not believe that you would recommend American Idol. No self respecting straight man should be watching that show. Especially if any of your teams are playing that night.

Purdue defense = awesome so far.

Paul Pierce > Tom Izzo
(Quote)
nobody seems like they are sure they want to shoot the ball for us.

wishing it was a cop out bro…hows the weather in ole virginia beach?
(Quote)
Purdue up 3 at the half, if they keep playing defense like this and the score ends up in the 50s Purdue will win.
(Quote)
Go Spartans! Win by 3!

Michigan State is Horrible. Does Izzo have Gary Williams syndrome?
