Ray-Ban Dan

Not even Klay Thompson's family would take Klay over Steph.

You're right. His 3-pt shooting is down to 40%, from 45% last season. Still obviously very good though.

Good points. Thing is, you can't cut Rhodes. He's one of the top corners around. Newman is a dinosaur. But didn't he have a good year? If not, he's the one I would make an example of. Since you, or someone, pointed out earlier that he has played under Zimmer for several teams. He of all people should know better. And should also know that Zimmer knows defense. I just don't like this notion that it's Zimmer's fault, that a few of his players are dumbasses. To me, this doesn't reflect poorly on Zimmer. It's a cop out to put this on him. The way to correct this is to suspend or cut a player(s). You run what the coaches tell you to run. I'm glad Nelson torched those fools.

A story I just read says that the DBs only ignored the game plan on the first series. It also went on to say that the players that did it all have strong affection for Zimmer. Zimmer shouldn't be canned. He's not a bad coach. Sometimes players are just idiots. If it were me, I'd suspend those guys for Week 17. Problem solved.

Most people think of the guy as a loser. Not sure either why the other poster would say "our guy". Those words should only be used when talking about a current Redskin, or a great from the past.

Got that right. I was actually hoping they'd go winless.

Yeah, Coughlin would be a terrible hire for any club.

I heard today that games involving Dallas had 4 of the top 5 highest ratings this year (Redskins TG game was highest), and 7 of the top 14 overall. So, unfortunately, all of the primetime games are warranted. Still, **** them!

Let's stay on the topic. If you disagree with my stance, fine. But no need for name-calling.

Yeah, so? The conversation is about Karl's book, and how he felt about Melo...as an NBA player.

Whatever, man. Like I said, he probably could have left out the whole fatherless thing. It's not like Melo had a choice about that. But as far as everything basketball-related that I've heard, he's correct. It's pretty well known that Melo has never bothered to play on both ends. He has a right to be upset if he feels guys like that cost him his career. Cousins, too. Guy is a bozo. No team is ever winning with either of them. I think a person can find something in just about everything, and tie it to race---if one chooses to. Me personally, I choose not to live my life that way. Every thing someone says, or writes, doesn't always have to be about race.

Racially charged? How do you know he hasn't said the same thing about white guys that grew up without fathers? I don't think anything I've heard from his book makes him look racist.Just a few things that maybe could have went unsaid. But those are the very things that sell, when writing a book. He obviously didn't care much for Melo. And I don't find that all that surprising. He's always been a selfish guy, that you can't win with.

Not with that terrible grammar.

The most recent one---Keith Scott case.

That's not what I said. Not following instructions in and of itself isn't a reason to be shot. You make it sound like I said if a cop tells you to turn down your music, and you don't, then it's ok for the cop to shoot someone. An example would be like the incident in Charlotte. If a cop, or in this case, cops, tell you to drop your weapon, and you don't comply, then yeah, it's within their right to shoot you.
