LONG TIME NO TYPE
Ok, so it’s been a little over a week since I posted anything. I figured it’s past time I went ahead and did a little something. How about a few quick sports notes while I ponder something else to write about for some other day? Let’s do it!
Terrell Owens: Raven or Eagle?
I personally don’t think that Terrell Owens is ever going to play a down as a Baltimore Raven this year. It’s obvious that his agent screwed up by not filing the proper paperwork to void the contract so that he could become a free agent. He probably should be a Raven. He’d do well there with the awesome ground game they put up in Baltimore. However, when a player doesn’t want to be somewhere, like Owens doesn’t want to be in Baltimore, it’s best that he doesn’t play there. He won’t put out his best effort if he is unhappy. And we know what Terrell Owens is like when he is unhappy. I expect him to be a Philadelphia Eagle somehow or another before this is all said and done.
Detroit Pistons: Defensive Juggernaut
Quietly, the Detroit Pistons (my favorite NBA team), have amassed a shot clock era record of holding their past 5 opponents to under 70 points per game. That’s an amazing feat for any era, let alone ours. Detroit is building great momentum heading into the playoffs and I hope they do well. I’d love to see another championship team this year...I think we might just have the squad to get it done. We’ve got great scorers like Chauncey Billups and Rip Hamilton. We’ve got the defensive capabilities of our recently acquired Rasheed Wallace and (2 time defending defensive player of the year) Ben Wallace. Also, I believe the Pistons have the best bench in the league. All the pieces are there for a championship run. Can we do it? God, I hope so.
Be Back Later...
I’ll be back within a couple days with probably some more sports talk and some thoughts on television and movies. See ya then.
