  1. Oh, man, I don't wish that on anybody, I don't care what team they play for...
  2. 26 years old, man. At one point, didn't think I'd make it this far or turn my life around the way I did. It ain't easy, but it can be done. Bless.

      Mr. S

      You and I have both been on this site for over 10 years; glad to see you're still here.

  3. Lol, and people want self-driving cars now? Really, when i first saw that, sort of my same reaction when i realized we sorta look like a competent basketball franchise now. Its not perfect, but I like what we're doing, i really do.
  4. That was so nasty when I saw that. : D This series right now is reminding me of when Dallas beat Miami when the big three first got together or better when Detroit beat LA back in 2004. A better team can beat a couple superstars, all is right with the universe. Here's to hoping Melo says "screw that" and building a dominant, deep, and selfless team actually matters again.
  5. I liked it, but it got really dark, really fast. Like the way Jonah Hill got possessed in his bed, ya, definetly a dark comedy.
  6. My feelings towards Lebron dont stem from it being cool or because everyone else does it. He made a habit of breaking our heart as a fanbase annually then brought his talents to our team's division of all places. I think its cool with all that fame he stuck with his high school sweetheart, so as a person its no big deal. Does it mean i have his app on my phone? Hell no.
  7. ^83% last I checked. Godzilla. If you grew up watching and liking the older movies from the franchise, you'd love it. If you went in expecting Pacific Rim and non-stop action, of course you're going to be disappointed.
  8.    Eh, he's getting paid $13 million a year by the wizards and he's talking about he wants his minutes limited and has a recurring knee injury. I can understand what he wants to do, that doesn't mean I have to agree with it considering the circumstances.
  9. Boswell wrote an article the other day about unrealistic expectations for all the new, young, high-draft picks we have in DC now. Griffin, Wall, Harper, Stras; I highly recommend it: http://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/blogsandcolumns/from-john-wall-to-stephen-strasburg-to-rgiii-to-bryce-harper-washingtons-young-stars-are-judged-by-impossible-standards/2014/05/17/af752640-dd25-11e3-8009-71de85b9c527_story.html One of the most destructive fallacies in sports is that the highest draft picks in the NBA, NFL and MLB can quickly transform their previously awful teams into champions — or near champs — in their first half-dozen years as pros. Just the opposite is true. The yardstick with which Washington and other towns measure their most conspicuous and often most criticized young talents is calibrated all wrong. Washington gets indigestion when it tries to enjoy or evaluate the wonderful young pro athletes who’ve come to town hyped to the heavens and picked at the top of the draft. We can’t figure out whether to praise or blame — and in what proportion — John Wall, Robert Griffin III, Stephen Strasburg and Bryce Harper for the levels of success their teams have reached in the postseason in recent years. In the past five calendar years, Strasburg (2009 draft), Harper (2010) and Wall (2010) were picked No. 1 overall in their sports, and Griffin (2012) was one of the most-hailed No. 2 overall picks in NFL history, accompanied by far more anticipation than most “1-1s.” How much should they have done by now?
  10. Some people were going so far on TV that after game 1 between the Wizards and Indy that we'd sweep them. Too early, why we have 7 game series. I hope they just beat each other up so the Spurs can win it. Don't see thunder winning that series against SA, and whatever love I had for Indy went out the window after seeing that retarded *** goofy looking grin on Hibbert's face in our series after he started feelin himself again. Ugh.
  11. Proud of the wizards, and thanks to the fans for not completely emptying out the stadium to pay respects for these guys. ima leave the who do we get rid of and fire for another day. gave it what we had towards the end, but jus werent good enough. at least we have something to build on and reason to believe that we'll be back. whens the last time any of us in this thread have been able to say that?
  12. Dude they have to want a game 7 with Indiana more then the Pacers want a game 6 with Miami. 12 points ain't nothing in the NBA, but dude, effort man.
  13. Wizards need help tonight from the fans for homefield advantage. 5-1 on the road in the playoffs, and only 1-3 at home is nuts. I really did not want to go to game 7 against Indiana, but damn if that's actually an advantage to us because of the way that we play on the road. And ML, don't be too hard on yourself, bro. : )
  14. I find it amazing how many famous people are smaller then Santana Moss but you'd have no idea unless you see them in the right setting where they can't hide it by sitting on some phone books or camera zooms...
  15. Thank you Wizards for vindicating my fanaticism. All I ask as a fan is to give it what you have. If you lose, don't let it be because of lack of effort. Whole lotta get rid of him, get rid of them. Effort and consistency is the difference between winners and losers, not the number of all-stars or who's favored to win.
  16. Good news is we play better on the road anyway. Bad news is we cant win without wall being a factor. not sure what to tell wall to do when he's not hitting shots. indiana kept smoothering him when he drove in the paint, had to keep getting balls to his shooters. Reality is if he's going to be getting max player money, he needs to shoot better. game 2 and 4 we're both winnable where if he just hits 2 or more of his jumpshoots we probably win. Game 3 was jus depressing. its like there's no more hiding everything that gets cried about in this thread or warned about by the talking heads this deep in the playoffs. this series isnt over until its over, but im gonna have to reevaluate how emotional i get over these wins and losses. need distractions to help deal with stuff in my life, but game 3 sucked the life out of me watching millionaires play like they didnt give a ****. why should i care if you don't?
  17. It wasn't our turn to beat Chicago, either. Still had people picking us to lose to Indiana in 5 before this series started. Idk, man, but for me until they beat us, that series isn't over yet. It's not like they've been pwning us like they used to, its been pretty back and forth the last year or two.
  18. A little lost mojo with one loss, huh? This is second game in a row Ariza has held PG under 20 points, who is their only consistent scoring threat. Even if Hibbert does start playing better, I don't expect Wall and Ariza to combine for 12 points again like that at home. We can play defense as well, but still have more scoring options then they do. I'm still sticking with 6 and I don't feel losing one game to the #1 seed means we're in danger of losing the series or not standing a chance in a possible matchup with Miami. It's gonna be alright, guys : )
  19. Has my vote. Core would be strong enough that we can survive Porter's growing pains and still be competitive. It's tough thinking about how many players we have contributing right now with expiring contracts. We may be good, but it may be a year or two before we have a team as deep as this again.
  20.    Time has a funny way of healing certain wounds. I'd want this, too. A lot of good memories from the Hibachi days, and brought us back to relevance, at least for a second. I'm also back on the fence with the letting Ariza walk mindset for the chance to get Durant or whatever. Especially after I saw the idea posted in here of trading Webster to help make the cap space for keeping Gortat and Ariza, moving Porter up the depth chart. An ideal situation would be something like a 3 year contract for Ariza that by the time is over, Porter is ready if not already taken over the starting SF position. This would better then some 4 or 5 year deal based on how well he's playing right now knowing he isn't going to be the player we're looking at 4 or 5 years from now. The idea of this interfering with us getting better doesn't make sense if we're on the fast track for the conference finals or further with what we already have. Different conversation now then before we started the playoffs, results tend to do that. I wouldn't max deal Ariza, but if we can work something out, I would not be against it in hopes of getting Melo here, ya know what I'm saying?
  21. Gonna look at this the same way I looked at the Chicago series. We shouldn't be trying to beat them at their game because they can't beat us in ours. It's not in our best interests to let this get to game 7 in Indiana. Wiz in 6.
  22. We've had enough Spiderman origin stories. It's time to get real and have a movie with Carnage in it.
  23. Mint 17 LTS release date is some time end of may 2014. Just sayin : )
